Lorne opens the doors to the bars and checks to make sure that the new finish on the bar is set before allowing Tino to start serving drinks.

The Bar: 12/13

Get your drink on!

CJ slides into the seat that ought to have her name on it shortly after opening. She'd left Ten a message (http://www.livejournal.com/users/ten_and_chips/900.html?thread=578180#t578180) after class, and then hidden in her office for the rest of the day. Still in her work clothes, she smiles at Tino and has him alternate whiskey neat and Diet Coke. She paces herself. She doesn't want to get drunk....just numb.

Her phone rings, strains of The Ride of the Valkyries coming from her pocket. (http://www.livejournal.com/users/prof_cregg/2246.html?thread=922310#t922310) She picks it up, looks at the id, and answers it. All she says is "Caritas."

If you want to. You sound like hell. [she swirls the ice in her Diet Coke with her straw] I just need to think. I've screwed this all up.

Re: The Bar: 12/13

I'm not moving. I love you too. [She hangs up the phone and slips it back in her pocket.] Tino, hit me again, baby.

[He gets there about twenty minutes later, drugged to the gills on non-drowsy cold medicine and still carrying a box of Kleenex.] Sliding into the stool next to her, he blinks a few times.] CJ.

[She tipsher glass in his direction.] Ten.

[Swallowing the amber liquid, she sets the glass on the bar.]

I shouldn't have adopted him. We should have just played along.

Rogue drops her coat and scarf in the back room before slipping behind the bar. "Hey Lorne. I heard there was a little excitement in here last night," she says, grabbing a metal shaker and attempting to flair it.

"Honey it was more like something out of the move showgirls than excitement. Poor kids. They'll be facing some mighty embarrasing stuff today."

Re: The Bar: 12/13

[marieann-d.livejournal.com]

Rogue nearly drops the shaker, catching it against her body. "Oops. Yeah, I definitely heard people talkin' about it in the halls today. Piper, the one on the bar, is my roommate. I think she's properly mortified," she adds.

"If you see them before I do hun, let them know there's no hard feelings. How are you doing sweetie? Going to sing for me tonight?"

Re: The Bar: 12/13

[marieann-d.livejournal.com]

"I'll be sure to let them know, don't worry." Rogue's smile falters. "I'm...I'm okay," she lies. "And, um, yes, probably."

Get your snark on!

Phoebe is pondering getting up on the stage and singing.

Re: The Stage: 12/13

[demonbelthazor]

Cole peered at Phoebe. "You want to sing?"

Re: The Stage: 12/13

[sensethevisions]

Phoebe nodded. "Yeah, yeah I do."

She stood up and made her way to the stage.

Re: The Stage: 12/13

[demonbelthazor]

Cole applauded when she came back to sit down. "Didn't know you could sing," he said, smiling at her.

Re: The Stage: 12/13

[sensethevisions]

Phoebe blushes. "I don't sing often, but I like to."

Re: The Stage: 12/13

[demonbelthazor]

"You have a nice voice," he murmured, leaning over to kiss her.

The Stage: 12/13

[karaoke-lizard.livejournal.com]

Get your groove on!

Re: The Stage: 12/13

[sensethevisions]

Phoebe made her way to the stage and started singing softly.

Someday
When we are wiser
When the world's older
When we have learned
I pray
Someday we may yet live
To live and let live
Someday
Life will be fairer
Need will be rarer
And greed will not pay
God speed
This bright millennium
On its way
Let it come
Someday

Someday
When we are wiser
When the whole world is older
When we have learned
I pray
Someday we may yet live
To live and let live
One day, someday
Someday
Life will be fairer
Need will be rarer
Greed will not pay
God speed
This bright millennium
Let it come
If we wish upon the moon
One day
Someday
Soon

One day
Someday
Soon

[CJ turns to watch Phoebe, but turns back around halfway through and asks TIno to hit her agian. She claps politely.]

Bel looked around the club. It was early, so he saw only CJ and Lorne in addition to Phoebe. He winced, but chose a song to sing for Phoebe.

There used to be a greying tower alone on the sea.
You became the light on the dark side of me.
Love remained a drug that's the high and not the pill.
But did you know,
That when it snows,
My eyes become large and
The light that you shine can be seen.

Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey.
Ooh, The more I get of you,
Stranger it feels, yeah.
And now that your rose is in bloom.
A light hits the gloom on the grave.

There is so much a man can tell you,
So much he can say.
You remain,
My power, my pleasure, my pain, baby
To me you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny.
Won't you tell me is that healthy, baby?
But did you know,
That when it snows,
My eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen.

Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey.
Ooh, the more I get of you
Stranger it feels, yeah
Now that your rose is in bloom.
A light hits the gloom on the grave

I've been kissed by a rose on the grave,
I've been kissed by a rose
I've been kissed by a rose on the grave,
...And if I should fall along the way
I've been kissed by a rose
...been kissed by a rose on the grave.

There is so much a man can tell you,
So much he can say.
You remain
My power, my pleasure, my pain.
To me you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny, yeah
Won't you tell me is that healthy, baby.
But did you know,
That when it snows,
My eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen.

Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey.
Ooh, the more I get of you
Stranger it feels, yeah
Now that your rose is in bloom,
A light hits the gloom on the grave.
Yes I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey
Ooh, the more I get of you
Stranger it feels, yeah
And now that your rose is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the grave
Now that your rose is in bloom,
A light hits the gloom on the grave.

Not a phenomenal singer, but surprisingly good.

[CJ turns to watch him. Not bad. Not bad at all. She claps as enthusiastically as she can manage before nursing her drink again.]

Re: The Stage: 12/13

[demonbelthazor]

Bel just might be blushing just a little as he returned to his seat.
