Caritas, Wednesday, July 1st

Newly acquired keys in hand, Chuck strolled into Caritas about an hour before the bar was scheduled to open. He looked pretty damn smug as he walked around slowly, inspecting everything. He had been in here many times before but it was different today. So, so different

"Get everything cleaned up and tape the zombies together, Tino. We're opening early tonight," Chuck said once he spotted the very confused looking bartender. "And before you open your mouth to argue, I'd take a look at this--"

Chuck pulled out the deed to Caritas out of his coat pocket and placed it onto the bar. Tino looked down and started reading, eyes widening more and more has he read. Slowly he lifted his head up to look at Chuck.

"That's right. This is my bar now," Chuck said with a slow smile. "If you start begging now maybe I'll let you keep your job."

That was all that needed to be said to get Tino in gear getting the zombies ready.

Chuck looked around the bar happily. "I feel like I just acquired Park Place in Fandom Monopoly."

[Yes, Chuck is the new owner of Caritas. No, not kidding. I'm around! About that around thing. There has been a friend emergency (a break up omg) and I must go out and comfort. So I'm only around for the next hour or so. Sucks, I know.]

After the portal had dropped her off back in Fandom, Harper decided to check out the bar. "Hello! I could use something cold to drink. Maybe a Diet Coke?"

It's because Harper was too much of a goody two-shoes to order anything stronger.

"Thanks!" she said with her excessive cheerfulness. "Hey, you sound really familiar! Aren't you one of those guys on the radio?"

Serena wondered what it meant that she was becoming somewhat regular at the bar her step-brother worked at. It kept her mind off the fact she was drinking more than she had been at home, smiling as she ordered a cosmo.

"Your new..." She looked at him, eyebrow raising. "Chuck, you bought this place?"

Soon she was sure there would be dancing girls. Dancing Zombie girls? She didn't want to think about it. "Make that two cosmos."

"Hey, didn't we have a class together?" asked Harper, smiling at the girl whose name she couldn't remember.

"We did," in fact if Chuck was right, this was the girl Serena needed to look out for. She searched through her memory for the name. "Harper, right? I'm Serena."

Re: Bar

[identity profile] chic-harper.livejournal.com 2009-07-02 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
"Yeah, that's me!" said Harper. "Serena... hey, aren't you related to Eric, too?"

Tim was in the mood to hang out in a bar and see about socializing a bit. He ordered a Guinness from Tino, wondering why the guy seemed so on edge.

[livejournal.com profile] heromaniac says that's the easiest way to cheat. You have to cheat the right way: distract people when you've landed on their space, mis-count how many spaces you've moved, and move other people's tokens when they're not looking.

Way back when, my cousins and I had a list of Monopoly rules. They included no cheating, no cussing, no being so loud as to bring the downstairs neighbors down, and as the only English speaker (and game owner) I had to translate everything accurately. We made more money catching people breaking the rules than actually playing.

We have a house rule says you can steal things when someone leaves the room unless the person makes sure to say they'll bring drinks back to the table.

... Alcohol really works as an incentive not to go cheating with us.

I haven't played Monopoly since my last semester of college. Once you play Strip Monopoly, it's hard to go back to regular Monopoly. Ahh, college and the things we do to win $5 bets.
