Spike's Pub: Open 11/8

Chewbacca, recovered from last week's shedding attack, shambles up to the pub and unlocks the door. He puts it all in order, turns on the lights and the sign, and ties on his apron.

He just hopes there's not a lot of trouble tonight.

Jake looked around curiously, never having been in the pub before. He prefered coffee over booze, but Parker had promised them whiskey for the song, so.. He grabbed Krycek's hand and headed for a table. "Don't see Parker yet, but I guess we could get something to eat while we wait?"

Krycek hadn't been to this particular place before, though it didn't seem like a terrible dive at least. "Sure, sounds good."

Sitting down, he glanced around the place, hoping that the fact that it was fairly empty didn't mean anything he should know about. Besides the fact that it was a Tuesday evening at a bar, really.

"You reckon they have fish and chips?" Jake seemed quite unconcerned about the lack of people in the room, and was busy craning his neck to read the menu. "Yes! Woohoo! ...Um. I haven't had fish and chips in a while."

"Then order it," Krycek suggested, leaning back in his chair. It was nice to know Jake wasn't allergic to any place that wasn't specifically geared to coffee anyway.

"I will." Jake grinned, looking back at Krycek. "What are you having then?" His face fell a little. "They probably have awful coffee here, though."

"Fish and chips is fine with me," he said, nudging Jake's foot with his own, smirking. "You could maybe have a beer with it? Sort of the point of going to a pub instead."

Jake sighed. "Yeeeah, but coffee is better. All right, Guinness then." He brightened, nudging back with his foot. "Unless they have cherry beer."

Chewbacca sets two baskets of fish and chips in front of them. He folds his arms and points with the top hand to the "No ID, no Booze" sign.

Walking by the pub enjoying the Autum air, Aayla looks around and sees Chewbacca arriving outside the door. She gives a double-take, seeing something actually familiar in town for once. She approaches Chewbacca and politely bows.
"Excuse me, sir? Are you from Kashyyk?"

Chewbacca bows back to her and holds up his translator.

"Good evening, little Jedi. I am indeed from Kashyyyk. How may I assist you this evening?"

Aayla's face brightens with Chewbacca's instant knowledge of her being a Jedi.
She shakes her head a little, still smiling. "I'm sorry, I don't need anything in particular. It's just comforting to see something a bit familiar on this planet. My name is Aayla Secura." She bows again, introducing herself. "If you don't mind my asking, sir, what brings a Wookie to Earth?"

Chewbacca gives a furry grin. "Force with you, Aayla Secura. My human cub is enrolled at the school. It was the only place that would take the little delinquent and get him ready for the Academy."

Trying to practice her Wookie, Aayla ignores the translator Chewbacca uses. She smiles at the greeting. When Han is mentioned, she looks confused for a moment. "Human cub? It's not very common for humans to be around Wookies on Kashyyk."

"Kashyyyk does not house many humans, it is true. He stowed away aboard my freighter while I was docked on Corellia. And what could I do? He was a tiny thing, smaller than you, all big ears and knobby knees. He is an excellent navigator, a skilled pilot and an unrepentant thief. You know how Corellians are. The words for who owns what are...muddled at best. And what brings a Twi'lek so far out on the rim?"

Aayla nods, smiling, listening to the story.
"The Jedi Council has gained some interest in this planet, and sent me on my first mission as a knight to participate and investigate the culture. I've seen some strange and different things here, but never thought I'd see a Wookie." She laughs. "Do you work at this cantina?"

"Indeed. I tend bar two nights a week. Simple enough work, and it helps pay the bills."

Chewbacca looked at the sky. "If we wish to continue, we must go inside. I must open now."

"Oh, yes. I'm very sorry. I'll let you get to your work. I should head to the hotel and do mine." She smiles kindly.
"Thank you for your time, sir. I may stop by again when I have the opportunity." Bowing again, she leaves Chewbacca to his work at the pub and walks towards the hotel.

Aaron headed into the pub. It was late, but he maintained hope of being able to get something to gnaw on and perhaps a beer to settle his stomach. The interview with the apartment manager had gone much better than expected. Pausing inside the door, he rocked to a halt at the site of the bartender. His hazel eyes flicked as he tried not to widen them in shock. One of the Breed? Here?

Attempting to remain casual, he adjusted the rolled-up cuff of his flannel and slowly made his way to the bar. Nodding to the furry being, he asked, "Hello, friend. Still serving food this late, by any chance?"

Chewbacca nodded. The smell of fish and chips still hung on the air. He tapped the wall sign that insisted the patrons be 21 to drink.

Regarding the sign with something akin to embarassment, Aaron pulled out his wallet and removed a driver's license. It was from California, and proclaimed one Aaron David Boone to be 22. He handed it over for inspection, "If this'll do? Just arrived in Virginia tonight, haven't had a chance to change it over yet. If we're good, I'll have a Newcastle and some of the .. what is that, fish and chips? Yeah. That."

[ooc: Aaron eats his fish & chips, drinks his beer, people watches, pays his bill, and then heads home. Mun is sleepy. Will be back to play later tomor..er.. today.]

Chewbacca nodded and set the beer and food in front of him.

He picked up the translator. "Sorry to inconvenience you, Mr. Boone. Enjoy your stay in Fandom Town. And please observe the 10 PM curfew"
