The Devil's Nest, Wednesday Evening

Despite his less than positive employee review from Eric last week, Derek was once again behind the bar. And looking as petulant as one could while wearing a leather jacket.

All while the DJ played Florence + The Machine like his life depended on it. It was like he was going for a real life fanvid only with less black and white and/or sepia to make it all romantic.

Because giving someone a homicidal look while 'No Light' played in the background was the stuff of Nicholas Sparks.

Did Derek even know who Nicholas Sparks was? Odds were on no.

Clint felt slightly guilty about giving money to Kitty's competition, but it wasn't like he was going to make this a habit. "Can I get a beer?" he asked as he sat down, giving Derek a perfectly friendly look.

Oh, he was going to be nice now? Is that it?

Derek's expression stayed pretty much the very same as always as he pulled the beer on tap. Because Barton really needed to learn to be specific here. Then set it down in front of him.

THERE.

Hey, beer was beer as far as Clint was concerned, so the stuff on tap was fine. At least, he wasn't going to act like it wasn't. "Thanks," he said, watching Derek as he took a sip. "So, how have you been?"

The 'Stalked any teenagers lately?' would be going unsaid.

Derek's response for a moment was just a slow blink. Like he trying to decide if talking would help or staying silent was the better idea. "Fine."

Oh man, he was a stunning conversationalist.

Looked like all of Derek's favorite people were here tonight!

"I dig your groovy tunes, man," April informed him as she settled onto a barstool.

She dug no such thing. For the record.

Edited 2012-09-12 23:43 (UTC)

Yaaaaaaaay.

Derek gave her essentially look Barton had received. And the saaaaame response. Which meant he stared at her, waiting for her to ask for a drink.

Best customer service eeeever.

No 'thank you'? Tsk, tsk, Derek. That was just impolite.

"I mean it," April continued. "This music is kickin'."

Kickin', Derek. That was high praise.

Just keeeep on staring, Derek. Just you keep on.

Pinkie arrived a little later than usual, and gave Derek a bright, apologetic look. "Sorry!" she said, taking a seat at the bar. "I got distracted by a balloon emergency!"

But never fear, Derek, even a balloon emergency couldn't keep Pinkie away for long. SHE LOVED YOU.

AFTER BARTON, HE MIGHT ACTUALLY WELCOME YOU, PINKIE. OH GOD, THIS IS WHAT GOING MAD FEELS LIKE.

"What."

"You know," Pinkie said. "When you have an emergency with your balloons." DIDN'T EVERYPONY HAVE THOSE? "It's okay, though, I have bunches stashed all over Fandom just in case."

"Do you have them here?" Why was he asking this?

Rock out to some vaguely depressing music!

Did the boss have a tragic form of cancer? WHO KNEW?

I have never actually watched a single Nicholas Sparks film.

...Not even the Notebook?

Not even the Notebook. All I know about it comes from Nick.

All I know comes from Cracked!

Now I want to have a Notebook viewing party at Christmas to learn ya.

WHY WOULD YOU DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT TO ME?

I've never seen one either, don't worry. I think I'm better off that way.

I get bored in romance movies. There need to be at least a few explosions before I wander off mentally.

I'm a sucker for romance movies but I don't like recent ones /hipster

Did you like Audrey Hepburn before she was cool?

(I can be that way about westerns. Goddamn do I love a good western.)
