Caritas [Tuesday]

Work.

Robin was at work.

If you had asked Robin where she would like to be the week after she was married, she would have said any number of exotic locations -- beaches, cities, various locations involving people serving her drinks.

This was not one of those places she would have chosen, no. So the bartender tonight was not exactly thrilled to be there, no.

"Evening," Henry said as he settled onto a stool. "Give me something strong enough that I'll be able to sleep through singing bugs."

Somebody had been away for the call to move to cabins, and was still cranky about it.

"I'm not sure we have anything strong enough," Robin said, arching a brow. "You didn't move on out to the cabins?"

Re: The Bar

Henry shook his head. "I was out of town for a week," he explained. "I didn't find out there was a problem until I got home this morning. I'll suffer through it at home with alcohol."

Robin winced sympathetically, going to pour him a shot. "I mean, not like the cabins are a hell of a lot better, either. They're cabins."

Re: The Bar

"Cabins," Henry echoed with distaste. "I'm not a huge fan of the wilderness. How bad are these? Are there bunks and mosquitos?"

Re: The Bar

"They're cots more than bunks," Robin mused, sliding over a shot of tequila. "And there's like, air conditioning and things. Otherwise, though, you're about on the money."

"I knew it. I'll take my chances with the bugs," Henry said, and downed the drink. He winced a bit at the burn -- it had been a while since he shot tequila.

He could hold his liquor, though. He'd be okay.

"What's new and exciting with you?"

Re: The Bar

[canadianpopstar.livejournal.com]

"Just the cabins stuff, really. Oh, and I went to Canada over the weekend and got married," she said, because it totally wasn't a big deal. Really.

Re: The Bar

[one-who-goes.livejournal.com]

"Seriously?" Henry leaned forward. "Well, congratulations. I hope the bugs didn't ruin the honeymoon too badly."

Re: The Bar

[canadianpopstar.livejournal.com]

"Seriously," Robin said, holding up her left hand and smiling a bit. "Honeymoon doesn't start until this weekend, but the whole bugs-and-cabin thing is kind of cramping my style all the same."

Re: The Bar

"Very nice ring," Henry admired. "How did the ceremony go? I heard a theory there'll be at least one disaster at any wedding."

Re: The Bar

[canadianpopstar.livejournal.com]

"Do you know Barney Stinson?" she asked, smiling a little sheepishly. "He performed the ceremony. Off his iPhone. I vowed to forsake all toothless hockey players. It went like that."

Re: The Bar

[one-who-goes.livejournal.com]

Henry laughed. "That is an oddly specific temptation," he said. "I had the whole Catholic mass thing when I got married, so it was a little more standard."

Re: The Bar

[canadianpopstar.livejournal.com]

"Bet it was way longer," Robin mused. "Ours was really short."

Re: The Bar

[one-who-goes.livejournal.com]

"I figure as long as somebody says 'husband and wife' at the end, it's long enough," Henry said, and gestured for another shot. "but it was pretty long, yeah. My wife's family is Catholic. I was just sort of along for the ride."

Re: The Bar

"She's not here, is she?" Robin asked, frowning a little.

Re: The Bar

[one-who-goes.livejournal.com]

Henry shook his head. "She stayed in Chicago. We're going through some stuff. Long story."

"Shouldn't you be on a honeymoon?" Price asked, sitting down at the bar.

Re: The Bar

[canadianpopstar.livejournal.com]

"We leave this weekend," she said, looking annoyed. "Because when we scheduled this, we didn't know there would be bugs living in our apartment and we would want to be gone right now."

Re: The Bar

[stayingfrosty.livejournal.com]

"I'm surprised we've not just hired some heavy-duty exterminators, to be honest," Price said. "Or are they all fans of a certain Canadian singer?"

Re: The Bar

[canadianpopstar.livejournal.com]

Robin looked alarmed. "What? I didn't bring them here."

Not you, Robin.

Re: The Bar

[stayingfrosty.livejournal.com]

Price gave her a baffled look.

"I don't think I follow."

Re: The Bar

[canadianpopstar.livejournal.com]

"Oh. Oh, you meant Celine Dion." Way to catch up, Robin. "'Cause...that's what they're singing. Sorry, impulse. What're you drinking tonight?"
