Devil's Nest [Friday Night]

[texted3times]

There was a neatly printed sign on the front door of the Devil's Nest tonight:

DON'T CARE HOW MUCH YOUR RELATIVES SUCK. IF YOU'RE NOT 21, YOU'RE NOT DRINKING ALCOHOL HERE.
--The Management.

Tiny was behind the bar and Eric was hiding in his usual spot in the VIP section, texting rapidly to Pam (who was trying to explain why she wasn't coming this weekend). Like...finger-blurringly rapidly. That's normal, right?

Drink!

[texted3times]

Tiny has a signature drink for Parents Weekend: whiskey in a tumbler. No ice.

Know who else could follow his nose? Derek.

Which would by why he was in the bar despite not working tonight. At the bar and staring over at Alcide. Because of reasons.

Jack had come in because Emma was in town and he wanted to show her what had happened to the bar since she left. (Not much, unless you counted some of Tiny's more terrifying experiments.)

But when he scented someone -- no, somewolf -- new, he stiffened against the bar. "We could go to Caritas, you know. They'll even serve us."

"What, and Eric won't? How rude," Emma huffed, placing a hand on the small of his back. "What? What's wrong?"

Re: Drink!

[bitten_notshy]

"Did you read the sign outside? We're still underage," Jack reminded her, and tried to relax under Emma's hand.

"Wolf," he explained quietly, softly. "The man with oily hair talking to Eric. I don't know him."

Re: Drink!

Emma didn't even look at him, choosing to view the situation through Jack's eyes. "Want me to find out, darling? Or shall we just go?"

"Oh, nevermind, I know him." Emma leaned over the counter to flag Tiny. "No threat, ignore him. Friend of Sookie's."

Re: Drink!

[bitten_notshy]

"Oh. Good," Jack said, feeling mollified, pleased -- and perhaps a bit silly to have worried.

He'd talk to Eric about it, anyhow.

"Did I know you could do that?"

Dance Floor and Lounge!

Because nothing says "making your kids writhe" like hearing you were doing the Electric Slide with complete strangers.

VIP Section

Come say hello to the vampire.

Alcide had skipped the daytime things because -- well, really, what was the point? But he'd given Tiny an affable little nod as he lumbered in, immediately heading for the VIP section. It didn't matter that he'd never been here before -- first of all, it was Eric, and secondly, like Toucan Sam, Alcide could just follow his nose.

"Nice place," he commented. Even if he thought it was a little much -- though, still, it could be worse. He'd been in Fangtasia.

[have some SP from me as I'm totes not around until 11ish my time, la.]

Eric rolled his eyes and addressed the ceiling. "Are you fucking kidding me."

Re: VIP Section

"Nice to see you, too," Alcide said dryly. "Pam says hi."

Re: VIP Section

[texted3times]

"I'll just bet she does," Eric said. "She must have gotten the idea talking to Jack too much."

Re: VIP Section

[surveyor-by-day.livejournal.com]

"It's like you're not happy to see me, Eric," Alcide said, signaling to Tiny for a beer and pulling up a chair. "You're gonna hurt my feelings."

Kate had meant to get to Fandom earlier, but when you'd just barely finished moving to a new place and were still just settling in and getting stuff in order, schedules tended to change. She got into town so late she figured she'd just swing by the club to at least say hi to someone, then call it a night and try finding Luke tomorrow.

"The sign at the door is such a depressing thing to see."

Hi. She means hi, Eric.

Re: VIP Section

[texted3times]

"Vampire," Eric pointed out. "If I was nice, someone would stake me."

Re: VIP Section

[vanillajello]

"Ummm, there's this vampire I kinda consider family?" Kate retorted, sounding amused. "Shock, horror, I actually think he's pretty nice."

Though Mitchell could get pretty awful when things went wrong. The point still stood.

"There's no law against vampires being nice."

Re: VIP Section

[texted3times]

"There is if they want to be alive in a few hundred years," Eric pointed out.

Re: VIP Section

[vanillajello]

Kate waved a dismissive hand. "Well, I was just trying to complain about your horrible sign," she said. "But if you want to not be nice I guess that's cool too."

Re: VIP Section

[bitten_notshy]

Hi, vampire!

Jack was frowning when he made his way back, and he waited for a moment when Alcide had stepped away. "Eric," he said, "who's your visitor?

Look, he asked the question more nicely than Derek would have.

Re: VIP Section

[texted3times]

"That's Alcide Herveaux," Eric said. "Packmaster in my section of Louisiana. General pain in my ass."

Re: VIP Section

[bitten_notshy]

"Charming of him to pick the full moon to visit," Jack sighed, not sounding overly concerned. "What's he like?"

Re: VIP Section

[texted3times]

"Far too interested in Sookie?" Eric offered immediately.

Because being overly invested in a teenaged telepath was only for vampires, dammit.

"Not a bad packmaster," he added, "though I think he works harder on his abs than strictly necessary."

Re: VIP Section

[bitten_notshy]

"When you spend a lot of time naked, you may as well look good doing it," Jack shrugged.

Which was to say, he'd found new interest in the gym these last several months.

OOC

We have a dinner party tonight, but other than that, I'm around.
