Caritas, Monday Evening [OPEN]

[jarodpretends.livejournal.com]

After getting a handwavey phone call involving the words "surfing," "baking sheet," "stairs," and "hellion," Jarod had collected his (!) daughter and brought her with him to work, stopping on the way to pick up something so she could eat dinner. Then he allowed her to "help."

This may later have been considered a bad move.

Within ten minutes, Jarod was trying to untape two of the zombies from each other and Catie was perched on a stool and pouting in the corner, which didn't have nearly interesting enough wallpaper. "Stupid time out."

The Band

In honor of the tiny demon in the corner, they're playing any song they can think of that would give her nightmares--just the instrumental version.

The would be willing to switch to children's songs if asked.

The Bar

Tino and Jarod are both here. Please mod Tino for groups (even if it's just for kids).

Catie

Catie's here too, once she gets out of the corner. (Again)

She also has chicken nuggets, carrot sticks, apple slices, and milk that she'd be willing to share.

"The hell's with all these kids everywhere?" Aiden said slipping up onto a barstool.

How she's managed to avoid all this the last twenty-four hours is anyone's guess. "Was there some kinda spontaneous childhood regression again?"

"I have no idea," he admitted, "but these seem to be new children, who recognize at least some of us as their parents. Drink?"

"Mojito?" Aiden asked hopefully. She then paused before adding, "You have one trailing you?" with a glance at Catie in the corner.

"Just a sec, and yeah, she's mine, in theory. Ex-girlfriend," he muddled the mint, then mixed the rest quickly and gave it to Aiden.

Gail clambered up onto a stool and put a gold coin on the bar. "Rum please."

Re: The Bar

[jarodpretends.livejournal.com]

"I think you're a little too young for rum," Jarod told her.

Re: The Bar

[causedbyrum.livejournal.com]

"But my mommy lets me have rum," Gail argued.

Re: The Bar

[jarodpretends.livejournal.com]

"Then your mommy can give it to you," he argued back. "And where is your mommy, anyway?"

"Give the wee wench some rum," Barbossa said with a grin.

Jaye's temporarily escaped both children and gets to the bar demanding, "Drinks. Oh my god."

Re: The Bar

[jarodpretends.livejournal.com]

Jarod took her at her word and poured two tequila shots and a beer. "Long weekend?"

Re: The Bar

[fates_jaye]

"Two kids. Two," she says, and the shots go in quick succession.

Re: The Bar

[jarodpretends.livejournal.com]

He poured another shot. "I have one," he pointed to Catie, who had forgotten she was being punished and was now sitting in the corner making up some kind of elaborate play with her hands.

GOB walked into the bar and asked very loudly, "Are there any other children of mine here?"

He then ordered a scotch just in case there were any yeses.

Re: The Bar

It's almost like fate or karma that has Staci popping up from out of nowhere to start tugging on GOB's shirt.

"Daddy 1!"

Re: The Bar

[bluth-illusions.livejournal.com]

"What the hell?" GOB yelled, jumping a little. "Stop doing that."

Re: The Bar

[mytwodadswtf.livejournal.com]

"Stop doing what?" Staci frowned. "I'm just happy to see you!"

Leto and Ghanima dragged an unwilling, protesting Irulan to Caritas.

"I'm certain it is already your bedtime." She said.

Leto waved it off, "Nonsense mother. It is early."

"And you promised us." Ghanima continued.

"I did no such thing!"

Re: The Bar

[jarodpretends.livejournal.com]

"Can I help you?" Jarod asked.

Re: The Bar

[irulan-atreides.livejournal.com]

Irulan shook her head, "No thank--"

"Give our mother your best wine." Leto ordered breezily.

The Lounge

[jarodpretends.livejournal.com]

After about 8 pm, Jarod found some blankets from somewhere and laid them out on the couches so kids could sleep if they (or their parents) wanted.

OOC

It doesn't get much more OOC that not my kid weekend. :D
