Caritas, Monday Evening

[jarodpretends.livejournal.com]

Jarod opened the bar and waved to Tino as he tried to figure out why the bar only had siding on one side. Tino grunted in response and sank lower into the lounge sofa he'd spent the night on, arms folded across his chest, turning his face towards the back cushion. He hadn't showered or shaved, and generally looked like he was homeless. He was surrounded by empty glasses, which upon inspection Jarod discovered contained the remnants of virgin strawberry daquiris.

The zombie band was still playing jazz, heavy on the sax.

Caritas was open.

The Band

Yeah, it's still all jazz all the time, but maybe you'd like to try scatting?

The Bar

Talk to Jarod and have him serve you, or mod Tino not getting you a drink.

Clark didn't believe he'd seen this bartender here before. "Hello," he greeted.

"Good evening, sir," Jarod said. "What may I get for you?"

Re: The Bar

[mildly-super.livejournal.com]

"I wouldn't say no to a watermelon wine cooler." Clark said.

Re: The Bar

Jarod blinked. "Right. Um, straight up or on the rocks?"

Re: The Bar

[mildly-super.livejournal.com]

Clark smirked. "Strait up thank you."

GOB walked in, looking to be in some pain. This was probably due to his hand, which had a cast on it. "Hey, Jarod. Half of my painkillers are missing. I need some booze to help with the pain and a lot of it."

Re: The Bar

After a brief debate about whether or not to explain synergistic effects of alcohol on narcotics, Jarod reached for the bottle of scotch and set it in front of GOB, along with a short glass. "What happened to your hand?"

Re: The Bar

[bluth-illusions.livejournal.com]

"It's okay to split it so that I have pills during the day and booze at night, right?" GOB asked. "I thought about asking half-face at the clinic, but that seemed like a mistake."

GOB poured himself a glass and drank. "Anyway, Artie tried to rob the place with a hammer last night. He's gone insane with alumninum."

Re: The Bar

[jarodpretends.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, I think so," Jarod said after a few minutes. At least he wasn't taking them together, anyway. "Half face? And Artie tried to rob Caritas? Are you sure? That doesn't sound like him at all."

Re: The Bar

[bluth-illusions.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, guy with a mask on his face," GOB said. "No clue. Maybe he's into kinky stuff. I should give him a card for the Sin."

GOB had more of his drink. "And, yeah, Artie's eyes were like crazy devils. He was trying to attack the bar, then he attacked me, yelling something about how I should give him money or he'd put siding all over the place. See what he did?"

Tino looked up from the lounge sofa. He seemed disappointed.

Clark surrpetitiously listened in on the conversation, his ears had figuratively perked up at the mention of a robbery.

Still feeling very strange from the events at the library, Tyler walked into Caritas and took a seat at the bar. He ordered a beer and then turned to Alec. "Weird day," he said.

Re: The Bar

Ordering another of the same, Alec turned to Tyler and smirked. "Normal for Fandom, or weirder than that?"

Re: The Bar

[tyler-gone.livejournal.com]

"Normal for Fandom," Tyler conceded. "Weird for me personally."

He rubbed his forehead. "I should probably tell you this before you hear it from someone else."

He didn't seem especially eager to say whatever it was, though.

Re: The Bar

Alec cocked his head slightly at Tyler's notable un-eagerness, raising an eyebrow. "Is this a confession you'd rather be drunk for?"

Re: The Bar

After Alec and Tyler had their nice bonding time, Cally couldn't help but sidle up next to Alec with her already half-gone drink.

"You know, I think I've seen you around. A lot."

Re: The Bar

[x5-alec.livejournal.com]

Alec shifted on his stool to look at his visitor, grinning at the girl but not recognizing her because he'd never seen her Xseries before. "Yeah? Where?"

Re: The Bar

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

Cally was being bad today. So she wandered into Caritas, sat at the bar, and waved to Jarod.

Re: The Bar

[jarodpretends.livejournal.com]

Jarod waved back. "What can I get for you?"

Re: The Bar

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

"Scotch and soda," Cally said. "Make it a double. And you totally don't need to card me cause I've got a pretty face?"

Re: The Bar

[jarodpretends.livejournal.com]

Jarod grinned. "We gave up carding a while back. Bad for business." He poured her drink and set it on a napkin in front of her.

The Lounge

[jarodpretends.livejournal.com]

The lump on the sofa? Still Tino. He's not moving, but there are other places to sit.
