Devil's Nest, Sunday Night

[texted3times]

There was a sign on the door:

Apparently some of you aren't used to seeing dead people
Drinks 20 percent off if it freaked you out
Drinks 40 percent more if you whine to me about it

This was Eric trying to be sympathetic. He was...rusty at it.

[OOC: Holy crap, Eric exists!]

Comments

Dance!

[texted3times]

To the DJ's greatest hits from that Patrick Swayze movie with the undead.

Drink!

[texted3times]

To excess, if you must, but silently unless you want the whining mark-up on your drink.

Talk to Eric

[texted3times]

He's finally back from Louisiana.

OOC

[texted3times]

Yay being hoooooooooooooome.

Excuse you, Goodnight was not going to whine. He was going to pick the bar that Faraday hadn't spoken with the proprietor about anything and then drink until he felt better.

Or passed out. One of those two.

His plans were great.

Re: Drink!

[texted3times]

Eric lounged casually behind the bar. "What's your poison?" he asked.

He'd get Tiny to make it. Eric didn't serve drinks.

Re: Drink!

[wefindintheashes]

"A bourbon, if you would," Goody replied with a strained sort of smile. He still had his manners, alright?

Re: Talk to Eric

[vanillajello]

hey uncle you ever feel like you haven't been out in foreeeeever?

Midwestern texting incoming.

Re: Talk to Eric

[texted3times]

Maybe a little, Eric texted back. But I own two bars. That counts as socializing, right?

Nope.

Re: Drink!

[texted3times]

Tiny held up two different bottles. "Drinking to savor or to get drunk?" Eric interpreted for him.

Re: Talk to Eric

[vanillajello]

nope

Aww, and she couldn't even read narrative!

not unless you actually talk to people.

Re: Drink!

[wefindintheashes]

"I must admit to the latter this evening," Goody said after a moment to consider.

Re: Talk to Eric

[texted3times]

People are annoying and stupid and I only like three of them. Pass.

Re: Drink!

[texted3times]

"The cheap stuff," Eric told Tiny, who poured Goody a large glass full and slid it across the bar to him.

Re: Drink!

[wefindintheashes]

"My thanks," he replied, taking a drink to settle his nerves. "Are you the proprietor then?"

Re: Talk to Eric

[vanillajello]

hard same tbh. but still.

She was, as always, stellar at making her point with varied and thorough evidence.

Re: Talk to Eric

[texted3times]

Nope. I'm a vampire, dark and mysterious, etc., etc. I don't need to get out.

He grinned and added, YOU, though...

Re: Drink!

[texted3times]

Eric nodded. "I'm Eric Northman," he said. "And you are?"

Re: Talk to Eric

[vanillajello]

hey, i get out! in the skies, no less!

Because that totally counted. And she totally hadn't opened this text conversation by implying hermiting wasn't working for her.

Really.

"Two nights in a row," Nathan noted, sidling up to sit near Goodnight at the bar. "Great minds think alike, and fools seldom differ?"

In that they were probably both here for very much the same reason, on at least several different levels.

And this on a work night, gentlemen.

Re: Drink!

[wefindintheashes]

"Goodnight Robicheaux is my name." Because you weren't from Louisiana without a fucking ridiculous name. "A pleasure to meet you."

Re: Drink!

[wefindintheashes]

Goody snorted into his drink at that. "Which might we be then? Fool or great mind?"

Re: Drink!

[shiroi_tiger]

"That depends entirely on how horrible we feel in the morning," Nathan decided, turning a wry smile toward Goody. "So far, I think I'm going to make decent headway towards 'foolish.'"

He planned on it, really.

Re: Drink!

[wefindintheashes]

"I feel I may be leaning that way as well," Goody replied. "How did Mr. Katsumoto fare in leaving?"

Re: Talk to Eric

[texted3times]

You're getting paid for that, Eric said. Doesn't count.
