Caritas [Sunday Evening]

[like-a-sponge.livejournal.com]

Greg opened up Caritas, mulling over the conversation from earlier in the day with his school-appointed and very grumpy little brother.

He whistled as he started to reassemble the band, and then took his place behind the bar and waving cheerfully to Jarod on the other side of the bar.

[Wait for OCD threads! Threads are up and Caritas is open.]

Jesse looked over at the drunk nun and raised an eyebrow. "Reverend, Sister."

"Oh! So you're one of the lucky ones." Rosette gave him a wink, and would have nudged him, but she was much too busy giggling and nearly falling over.

"How's that?" Jesse leaned away a little, not wanting the soused sister to fall on him.

Rosette promptly facepalmed, shaking her head. He was gonna make her say it? A sweet, little innocent nun like her? For shame!

She started giggling again, a little uncontrolably. She cracked herself up. But she soon recovered enough to explain. "Reverends can get married, can't they? And thaaaat means they can, you know, have a wiiiiife, and, in having a wiiiiife..." She turned a little pink, squeaking as she held back a very niave sort of laugh "...have SEX."

But she couldn't hold the the laugh back. It burst out of her, and she slapped the table.

"Yeah." Jesse couldn't help laughing at or maybe with the drunken nun. "Reverends can get married and have wives and all that."

Not that he had since before... scratch that. "Yeah, we can have wives."

"See? Lucky." Rosette grinned, glad that the preacher was laughing, and not getting mad at her, or something. He was no Father Remington, that was for sure, but she always did have a weakness for a man of the cloth.

"Not that I'd want a wife or something, but, ya'know. Ya definately got the better deal on that side of the theology."

She gave him a thumbs up and then offered her hand. "Rosette, by the way. We can't very well go 'round call each other 'Sister' an' 'Rev'rend' now, can we?"

"Jesse," he said, taking her hand. "Jesse Custer."

Rosette gave his hand a wobbly shake. "Nice ta meet'cha!" She was slurring a little again. "I work over at the...the, uh, Our Lady of...Well, the church, anyway. Ya should stop by, give a sermon or two! Unless you're here to do just that...regularly?" There's no mistaking the pure hope in her voice as she asks. 'Bout time someone who might possibly know what they're doing showed up and she might be able to slack off even more!

...But they were meeting in a bar, so there was a good chance Reverend Custer here was no holier or pious than she was. Drat.

Jesse thought about the last sermon he gave in Annville and shook his head. The entire congregation going up in flames was definitely a once in a lifetime event, but still.... "I'm not a sermonizing preacher. I'm going to teach religion up at the school, though."

Re: The Bar [08/27]

[nun-better.livejournal.com]

Double drat. Rosette snapped. "That's too bad. Uhhh, not about the teaching religion, that's pretty nifty, but about the sermonizoning-oning..." Slurring out the word, she paused, considered it. Close enough. Rosette forged on. "But yer still welcome to stop by whenever! And meet Chrono! Oh, you'll like Chrono. 'Less he plays the organ." She made a gagging gesture, sticking out her tongue and wrapping her hands around her neck.

Jesse looked nonplussed. This was hardly the behavior he expected of a nun. "Uh huh. I'll do that."

Re: The Bar [08/27]

Rosette tossed her arms up, nearly tipping herself over, but she righted herself quickly and continued on, giggling. "Yayyyy! It's gonna be so much fun having you here, Jesseeeeee!"

Re: The Bar [08/27]

[preacher-custer.livejournal.com]

Jesse shook his head. He wasn't one to deny a girl her drunken stupor. "You're three sheets to the wind there, darlin'. You should be gettin' yourself back to your parsonage."

Re: The Bar [08/27]

"Ppppsshhhh," Rosette just may have gotten a little spit on Jesse as she dismissed his suggestion with a wave of her hand. "I jus' got back from a week...a week! back in the stupid prohibition era. I'm celebrating! Whooo!" She threw up her arms again, and brought them back down as her hands covered another giggle.

And then she got a little stern, although it was obviously a strained false expression. "But thank youuu for the con...vern." And she giggled again, pitched forward a little. The moment her head hit something solid, she fell asleep with a sawing yawn.

Jesse sighed and looked to Tino to be sure the sister would be alright.
