Caritas | Wednesday

[tripledmyself.livejournal.com]

Today, Nathan had bet Tino a month's pay that he couldn't go up on stage and sing Bette Milder's most famous song and get a standing ovation from the zombie band. Tino, being a dumbass, took the bet (because money was money) and was now up there belting the song out like a twat.

Too bad Nathan had bribed the band earlier to just boo Tino the fuck off the stage. Hey, no one said he played fair.

Who could resist Tino singing when they had nothing better to do with a Wednesday night?

Caroline took a spot at the bar and cringed a little. "Is he seriously singing that Beaches song? I could've sworn it wasn't 1990 anymore."

"And yet, you're the one that recognizes the movie it's from," Nathan pointed out, shaking his head sadly. "How the mighty have fallen."

"Oh please, my parents love that stuff. Probably part of their downfall if you think about it," she reasoned. "Which is just pathetic, so let's not think about it. How's the alcohol tonight? What are we drinking?"

"I am drinking..." Nathan picked up his glass and gave it a look. "You know, I don't even fucking remember. I think it's something Scottish actually. I've completely betrayed my Irish roots and am metaphorically sleeping with the enemy. Haven't gotten a really good blowjob out of it yet but I am hopeful!"

[puppywithatutu.livejournal.com]

"Gasp!" Caroline's hand covered her heart in feigned shock for a moment before leaning forward with a curious look. "Is it even possible? I figured anything that wasn't Irish would like, set fire to your throat and send you gagging for the back room."

"I'm not that much of a pussy!" Nathan said, not caring that he'd said he was somewhat of a puss. Whatever. "I am a cultured male. Do you stick strictly to drinking...American shit? Come on now, even someone as wholesome as you has to get tired of the swill that passes as beer in this country."

An ararchist and a turtle with a top hat (fandomtownies.livejournal.com/6262437.html) walked into a bar...

....stop me if you've heard this one.

Anyway, Britta walked into the bar, had a seat, and place the turtle on the counter and tried to pretend that was totally normal. "Beer for me," she said. "Bowl of water for the reptile. Just put it on my tab."

No, she didn't have a tab. She just felt that sounded like the right thing to say.

[tripledmyself.livejournal.com]

"...what the fuck, mate?" Nathan repeated, raising an eyebrow. "Does the reptile have any ID?"

[shestheworst.livejournal.com]

"You need an ID for water?" asked Britta, raising both eyebrows, but feeling a lot more sympathy for her supposed turtle cause now that she was experiencing how hard it was for a turtle out in the world herself.

[tripledmyself.livejournal.com]

"Maybe it's a new rule," Nathan said even if it wasn't. "I just don't want the turtle pissing all over the counter. He has to drink in moderation."

[shestheworst.livejournal.com]

"I don't even think he wants to drink it," Britta offered. "He'll probably just sit in it."

Hayley sat down at the bar and then made a bit of an unpleasantly surprised face at Nathan.

"...who are you?" she said, having hoped to encounter one of the bartenders back from when she'd originally on the island.

She was not yet used to this sort of change.

[tripledmyself.livejournal.com]

"Who the fuck are you?" Nathan retorted, giving her a face right back. "I'm the fucking boss, that's who I am."

[onlysmokesnics.livejournal.com]

"I'm Hayley Fitzpatrick, that's who I am," Hayley said, not ready to take any lip. Willing to give it, certainly. "So what, you bought this place from Chuck?"

That was her last memory of the owner.

[tripledmyself.livejournal.com]

"Sure."

No.

"And being a twat to the bartender means you're not gonna get fucking served anything but Tino's backwash."

[onlysmokesnics.livejournal.com]

"Oh, come on," Hayley said. "I come in here hoping for Jessica or Chuck and I ended up with you. Cut a girl a little slack for being disappointed."

That probably didn't help her case any.

Elle had been about to order a drink when she heard that familiar voice.

And that would be Elle pouncing on Hayley. Politeness was not a thing Elle worried about... well... ever, really.

"Well gee," Hayley said, a little laugh escaping her lungs. She hugged back, of course. "If I'd known this was gonna happen, I'd have gotten hold of you sooner."

"Well, excuse me for being happy to see you!" Elle said, laughing. "God, how've you been?"

"I'm guessin' you mean since my last phone call?" Hayley said. "Well... pretty bad. At least, back in Gotham. Things are kinda on the up out here, mostly."
