The Devil's Nest, Wednesday Evening

This felt like the wrong side of the bar to be on. However, Octavia figured she would just have to get used to it, because starting tonight, and for the forseeable future, she was the Wednesday night bartender at the Devil's Nest.

Not that she could actually bartend just yet. Tiny was trying to show her the ropes, but... Look, even someone as stubborn about adapting into new situations through learning as Octavia was wasn't going to master much in a single evening.

She was also trying not to think too much about where she'd been a handful of months ago, and where she was now.

Lucifer leaned over the bar and smirked at her. "Think you can manage a red wine?"

"Don't offend me in my own club."

Eric's club, whichever.

"No, my own club is much better decorated than this," Lucifer said, undaunted.

(Part of him really wanted her to see Lux. But he didn't want to think about Lux. Lux was home.)

"Get me the dustiest bottle you can find."

"Means someone's been saving it for something," Lucifer said lightly. "People drink terrible wine by the gallons, it's the expensive stuff they don't dare to touch."

"People who actually know wine know which years were good, and which weren't," Lucifer said, "and which regions produce terrible, substandard wine, and which don't."

"You care about the quality of your blades, don't you?" Lucifer asked.

"Learn any fun cocktails yet?" Duke asked as he settled in at the bar.

He was pretty sure the answer would be "no".

"With a little patience, you'll be a rockstar in no time," Duke assured her. ". . . You know how to pull a beer on tap yet, at least?"

"Since when do you care about what you're 'supposed' to do?" Duke asked. "Though it is traditional, yes."

"You'll be the best, sexiest bartender on the island soon enough," Duke assured her. "You've already got the second part down."
