The Devil's Nest, Wednesday Evening

[justlurkinghere]

So, Derek was now the not so proud manager of an apartment building. Which was. Yeah. It wasn't even abandoned. Or filled with things that could give you tetanus!

How do people even function there?

For those reasons, he wasn't paying any attention to the DJ's music choice tonight. Which was, once again, Taylor Swift based. Because that DJ hated all joy in the world.

The Bar

Where Derek was brooding. As you do.

"More T. Swift, Derek, really?" He knew you loved her. He knew it.

Re: The Bar

[justlurkinghere]

"Did you bribe the DJ to keep playing it?" Really, he would not put this past Stiles.

Re: The Bar

[robinonadderall]

"Nah I think he plays it because you like it," Stiles said. "I bet you sing 'Red' to yourself in the shower."

Re: The Bar

[justlurkinghere]

HIS SHOWER WAS SULLIED BY YOU, STILES. HE COULDN'T EVEN.

"You figured me out. I have the taste of an idiotic teenage boy."

Like you!

"We're on a first initial, last name basis with her?" Kitty greeted him.

Re: The Bar

[robinonadderall]

"Um yeah, Taylor has gotten me through many a dark moment." Hers were the songs of heartache.

Re: The Bar

[throughaphase]

"I can respect that," Kitty told him. She wasn't going to voluntarily admit that she'd maybe belted a song or two- badly- in the shower a few times. "So how are you doing?"

"I wasn't going to say anything, but it does seem rather incongruous with the theme of the bar," Sam noted, lowering her voice slightly. "But then I don't think I'm familiar with the singer..."

Taylor Swift's popularity had died down sometime before humanity discovered the mass relays. Which was sad because the krogan probably would have loved her.

Re: The Bar

[robinonadderall]

"Taylor Swift," he said. "Patron saint of teenage girls everywhere."

Re: The Bar

[playsforkepesh]

"So... I was right that it doesn't quite fit."

She was eyeing Derek a little now. He didn't seem the teenage girl type.

Re: The Bar

[throughaphase]

"Did the DJ have a bad breakup or something?" Kitty wondered as she sat down at the bar.

Re: The Bar

[justlurkinghere]

"Does anyone care?" He didn't.

Re: The Bar

[throughaphase]

"That depends on whether or not you like the Taylor Swift happening in and around your ears," she said.

Re: The Bar

[justlurkinghere]

"I tune it out." He tuned a lot of things out.

It was a Sam with a rainbow duckling on her shoulder who arrived at the Devil's Nest this evening, and while she looked less miserable about the situation than, say, Derek might have, she certainly didn't look pleased.

"Excuse me, could I get a beer, please?" she requested, sounding polite as usual but also a tad bit strained. "And -- maybe a shot glass full of water, if you wouldn't mind."

Because duckling.

Re: The Bar

[justlurkinghere]

"...I don't want to know," Derek decided, grabbing the closest beer and that shot of water for her.

Re: The Bar

[playsforkepesh]

"That's fortunate, as I wouldn't be able to fill you in if you did," Sam replied pleasantly enough.

She uncapped the beer and took a long, grateful swig of it before turning her attention to the shot glass, holding it out for her new feathered friend to lap at.

"Thank you, by the way," she added. "I was hoping it would just go away before water became an issue, but as it's been quite a few hours now..."

Re: The Bar

[justlurkinghere]

"Sometimes they don't go away at all." Like Puppy Joe!

"You didn't pick this music, did you?" Clint said as he came in and took a seat.

Re: The Bar

[justlurkinghere]

"No, I'm a huge Taylor Swift fan," Derek replied with a sneer. Oh, they were just besties, weren't they?

Re: The Bar

[so_hawkward]

"That explains so much," Clint said brightly. "So, you're welcome."
