Caritas - Friday evening [Open]

After having Tino melt down tiny chocolate figures in the shape of gnomes, GOB had Tino hang up a sign:

SPECIAL TONIGHT!
Chocolatinis for the price of a martini without chocolate!


After telling Tino to do all that work, GOB was exhausted so he had a chocolatini for himself. It was good.

"Hi everyone, I hope you're not letting the world get you down.

Take this green ribbon off my eyes
I'm exposed
And it's no big surprise
Don't you think I know
Exactly where I stand
This world is forcing me
To hold your hand
'Cause I'm just a frog, little 'ol me
Don't let me out of your sight
I'm just a frog, all pretty and petite
So don't let me have any rights

Oh...I've had it up to here!
The moment that I step outside
So many reasons
For me to run and hide
I can't do the little things I hold so dear
'Cause it's all those little things
That I fear

'Cause I'm just a frog I'd rather not be
'Cause they won't let me drive
Late at night I'm just a frog,
Guess I'm some kind of freak
'Cause they all sit and stare
With their eyes

I'm just a frog,
Take a good look at me
Just your typical prototype

Oh...I've had it up to here!
Oh...am I making myself clear?
I'm just a frog
I'm just a frog in the world...
That's all that you'll let me be!
I'm just a frog, living in captivity
Your rule of thumb
Makes me worry some

I'm just a frog, what's my destiny?
What I've succumbed to Is making me numb
I'm just a frog, my apologies
What I've become is so burdensome
I'm just a frog, lucky me
Twiddle-dum there's no comparison

Oh...I've had it up to!
Oh...I've had it up to!!
Oh...I've had it up to here!
"

Robin had had enough chocolate tonight, his tummy hurt. But he was here anyway. Surely there was something that could settle his stomach.

"Not Muppet frogs." he said. "It might make me burp though, so excuse me in advance."

There was once a time that Mary would have been freaked out by seeing a frog drinking in a bar. Of course, that was before she'd played poker with Robin at the chocolate festival.

"Great song!" she said, beaming. "Wish I had the courage to get on stage and sing."

"Thanks!" he beamed. "I love to sing. My dad says I take after my Uncle Kermit a lot." He tilted his head quizically. "You should try it." he nodded. "I could go with you if you think it'd help."

Mary looked nervously at the stage. "I don't know," she said. "Getting up and speaking in front of a crowd kinda freaks me out. Forget singing in front of a crowd."

"Maybe you could start small. Just sing in front of friends, and make them sing too so you wouldn't be the only one."

The chocolatinis almost looked good enough to throw three months of sobriety out the window. Fortunately, Mary had her fill of chocolate at the festival so she was able to resist the temptation.

"Club soda with lime, please."

"Well, I have no complaints about my dates. They were all very charming, even Deadpool," said Mary. "I'm just trying to figure out how I ended up getting matched with a student." Never mind that she'd already gone out with the student in question. Mary was still having trouble with the idea.

"Well, you'll have to thank Tino for me because Johnny was also very charming as well. I had no complaints," said Mary, getting a very dreamy sort of look in her eyes.

Jim ordered a Guinness and went to the lounge. Not long enough after, he returned for another one. And probably a bit too soon, he went up for another one.

It got to the point where Jim decided that it would be a good idea to look at his phone. And then he decided it would be a good idea to call his best friend in the world. Several times. (http://keds-champion.livejournal.com/391.html?thread=239239#t239239)

Pam had gotten a few phone calls.

Once she'd checked her voicemail, she figured someone really ought to check on poor Jim, and thus she went to the most likely source.

"So how much have you had?" she wondered, sitting down next to him.

"I don't remember how to count," Jim said.

"That's...a lot," Pam commented helpfully. "Hey, can I look at your phone?"

Jim held the phone up. "Yep! It's right here. See it?"
