[Day 230] We're still not dead! Time to get drunk until we are

[bastionpc]

Who: Georges, you, and so much alcohol
Open: Open
When: Day 230, from noon til night
Where: Inside and outside the Distillery
What: In which planning is attempted, an obnoxious amount of booze is shoved at everyone, and Georges needs help with some things
Format: Pick your poison
Warnings: Drunk shenanigans at some point, likely


So, in the morning, Georges makes sure to stop anyone before they can go out onto the Skyway or get a bite to eat, or basically attempt to carry on with their lives like normal. With the most recent near death experience, he seems to be aiming to be more insistently friendly, apparently.

"Hey there! I got everyone together for some drinks, well, last time since we all needed one after that and I figured why not do it again? Come over to the Distillery later today, and I'll have some things whipped up! Oh- and by the way. That Ura fella, Zulf, he wanted folks to meet up and try and figure a few things out, get a bit more organization 'round here I suppose. If you could pass this around, that'd be great!"

And, sure enough, at around noon-ish Georges has once again set up some things. There are tables just outside the distillery, the largest he could manage (which is just a couple pressed up against one another) done up specifically for anyone who wants to sit around and be responsible.

For those who don't care about or don't trust themselves with responsibility, there's a couple smaller tables scattered about both inside and outside. As usual, Georges is behind the bar with a row of bottles on display. Ask him about them, chat with one another, or just focus on getting utterly and completely smashed, do as you like.

Maybe if you're chatty enough, you might even get roped into something.

[What's a party without snacks?

Rin isn't feeling particularly social tonight, but having everyone back in one piece is reason enough for her to at least make up some basic tasty snacks both savory and sweet to give out to those who are being social.

Not that it will be impossible to get her attention or start a conversation with her. Just don't expect her to be as enthusiastic as everyone else.

Especially since she'll probably be spending most of her time in the kitchen instead of the Distillery proper.]

[ourlegends]

[ She wasn't really mingling with everyone either, but she knew Rin was probably in the kitchen, so she figured she'd go visit and let her know she was alive, at least. ]

Hey there. Need any help?

[hellpyre]

[Rin had taken a break by the time Hilda found her, sitting in a chair in the kitchen with a cook book in her hand.]

Hm? Oh, hey. I'm just waitin' for some stuff to finish right now.

[ourlegends]

Ah. What's cooking?

[ She moved over to take a look at what Rin was reading. ]

[hellpyre]

[Just a pretty basic cook book. In Japanese, of course, with lots of little scribbled notes in the same language in the margins.]

Just some snacks. Nothin' too big. Figured it would go good with all the drinks everyone was havin'.

[ourlegends]

I'm sure they'll be awesome.

[ Eh, she can't read that language ... she's just gonna find a chair and pull it over to sit next to her friend. ]

We haven't hung out in a while ...

[hellpyre]

[Don't worry it's practically squiggles anyway. Rin's handwriting is awful.]

Yeah, we haven't. It's been a little crazy around here lately.

[ourlegends]

More than a little.

Sooo ... what's been up with you lately?

[hellpyre]

Not... much. I haven't been goin' out on many trips or anythin'...

[Why is this awkward? Why is she acting awkward?]

[daughterofursa]

[Zuko's not really here to be social either, but she does take the time to track Rin down-- which isn't hard, considering the food available. She stops to lean against the doorway to the kitchen]

Not joining everyone?

[hellpyre]

[Food usually means Rin is around somewhere, so that was a pretty good deduction on Zuko's part.]

Hmn? Oh... no. Not feelin' up to bein' social tonight...

[daughterofursa]

Just tonight? You spent the last celebration we had napping.

I thought I was supposed to be watching for you avoiding people.

[hellpyre]

I was really tired last time. I ain't avoidin' people.

[Except that she is right now.]

[daughterofursa]

That seems to be exactly what you're doing.

Is something wrong?

[hellpyre]

I--... I've just got somethin' on my mind, that's all...

[daughterofursa]

You want to talk about it?

[hellpyre]

... I'unno. It might not be somethin' you wanna hear about.

[kyotoprincess]

[That's okay Bon can sneak in to the back to go visit her, right?]

[hellpyre]

[Of course!

Not that she's going to look up from the cookbook she currently has her nose in while waiting for snacks to finish baking.]

Hi.

[kyotoprincess]

Hey.

[He can tell something's off about her, but not exactly what it is. He has a guess at it, though.]

How're your ears doing?

[hellpyre]

Mn? ... oh. Better. Still a little sore but I think it'll go away soon...

[At least she answered. Something is off, though.]

[kyotoprincess]

That's good...

[He trails off there, though, because Rin seems distracted.]

...is something wrong?

[hellpyre]

[She had talked to a few people by this point, but her attention span wasn't any better for it.

She knew she had to tell him, be honest and not hide what's going on but--...]

N-no. No nothin's wrong.

[kyotoprincess]

[She's lying, or at least covering something up. Which makes him worried, because Rin only ever covers up big things that she doesn't want to talk about. If it were a little annoyance, she'd say as much.]

I can tell you're not being honest, you know.

[But. But. He's going to leave the call-out at that. Demanding answers never works well, since Rin always either clams up entirely or starts yelling at him when he badgers her.]

...But if it's nothing you want to talk about, that's okay. So long as it's nothing dangerous.

[hellpyre]

[She is. And he's right to be worried. But as much as she wanted to tell him the mere thought of doing so made her throat lock up.]

Its.. its not dangerous.

[But it was worrying her enough to act like this.]
