Caritas; Wednesday [11/11].

[somethingwithturquoise]

If being gifted a large variety of jello and rum wasn't a good excuse to really break out that jello shot maker Barry had made for her, especially today, well, she didn't know what was. The amount of prep work she put into having a wide variety of fruits to throw into this mix, too, was a little astounding, to the point where she kind of wondered where it was exactly that she went from being generally apathetic and jaded about most things to actually giving a shit and putting in effort, and then she remember, oh, right, validation and being around people who actually cared.

So that was nice!

And the shot maker was working great, and there were maybe a few other things she was hoping to accomplish that evening, so her mood was excited and excellent, and she barely even noticed the Christmas lights, but, if she did? She'd have probably decided she needed to add some nice sparkly garlands to them to really make them pop!

The Stage - 11/11.

[somethingwithturquoise]

Where you can still sing for your jello, or just sing because it's fun, dammit!

The Bar - 11/11.

[somethingwithturquoise]

Where you can get your booze and jello on, chat it up with Summer, or mod it up with Tino.

You could probably chat it up with Tino, too, but...why would you want to?

There was an... interesting moment at the entrance to the bar, as Lucifer found himself attempting to enter the bar at the exact same time as another redhead, and there was a bit of bumping and jostling until he finally pushed through first. Of course.

"Miss Smith," he said jovially, stepping up to the bar. "Leaving our jello fates in our own hands, are you?"

Re: The Bar - 11/11.

[somethingwithturquoise]

"Mr. Morningstar," Summer greeted back with a grin that was making sure not to think too much on how she'd actually kind of missed that. "While I definitely wouldn't be opposed to drinking through all that," she hitched her thumb over her shoulder where the surely familiar colorful bottles were on full display for her patron's consideration, "myself, I figured it'd be much more fun to share the wealth."

And the shot maker didn't get nearly as much use or credit as it should.

"Are we still doing scotch?"

Re: The Bar - 11/11.

[my_own_advocate]

"Hm, I don't think so," Lucifer mused. "I realize it's against the spirit of today's special, but surprise me with something... jello-y. I wasn't joking when I said I missed your work."

Re: The Bar - 11/11.

[superjoanjett]

"Look at you," Jessica said with her usual glass of bottom shelf whiskey. "Are you allowed to drink at your only competition?"

Let's face it, the raccoon bar didn't really count.

Re: The Bar - 11/11.

[my_own_advocate]

"What's Eric going to do if he finds out, glare at me?" Lucifer said, amused. "If it isn't my favorite iron-livered newbie. Should I be worried you're at the competition?"

Jesse threw an unimpressed look after the guy who'd just muscled in past her into the bar, but...

Not worth it.

She walked in a moment later, and settled at the far end of the bar.

Re: The Bar - 11/11.

[somethingwithturquoise]

Well, at least by the time Summer made it over to Jesse all the way on the far end of the bar, she had time to grab a nice generic beer in passing to set down in front of her.

"Hey, Jess," said Summer, who was feeling like that extra -e at this point threw off a certain casual bartender banter rhythm at this point, apparently. "How's it going?"

Re: The Bar - 11/11.

[weirderthanthou]

Jesse was not actually used to people being that casual with her name - if anything, she'd spent a lot of time correcting people who kept calling her Director Faden - and it was... actually kind of nice?

"Good," she said. "Quiet, for once, which is giving me some time to work on the Fandom handbook."

Re: The Bar - 11/11.

[defenderofdesmoines]

"You don't do the jello thing?" Annie asked, wandering over to greet Jesse and observing the beer. "You must have better Summer-resistant powers than me."

Not that she'd like, had to twist Annie's arm. Jello was fun.

Re: The Bar - 11/11.

[weirderthanthou]

"I like my beer," Jesse said wryly, holding it up. "I try to avoid anything big and loud that I'm going to regret in the morning."

... innuendo not intended.

"I like that you clarify it's not really poison," Rey said as she sat down, amused.

Re: The Bar - 11/11.

[somethingwithturquoise]

And if Rey was amused when she sat down, well, then, Summer's response to her was downright elated, because she was actually looking forward to her coming in that evening.

"You can never be too careful around here," she agreed, mildly pleased, before her grin widened. "Also?"

Because she had planned this exactly, because she was that person, and wasn't going to let even cute potential other banter distract her from the point that needed to be made.

Which involved Summer swiftly setting down for Rey her usual Dr. Pepper, a shot of vodka, and a jello shot that had actually been specially made.

"I fucking called it!" she announced proudly, with a triumphant gesture to accompany it after the last 'drink' was settled.

Re: The Bar - 11/11.

[defenderofdesmoines]

Yeah, Annie wasn't going to be quite as...Summer about it, but she was totally sidling up to Rey once she had her drink. "Good weekend?"

She had learned pretty early on to listen to the radio, yes.

Re: The Bar - 11/11.

[superjoanjett]

Watching Summer and Annie's reaction to Rey walking in, Jessica merely raised an eyebrow.

"I'm not going to ask about your weekend or whatever you did," she said signaling Tino to give the girl her usual drink. "How are you doing... Rey? Right?"

When the Dr. Pepper came out she was giving that a weird look.

Re: The Bar - 11/11.

[defenderofdesmoines]

"This is fun," Annie said in greeting, gesturing to the sign. "I thought they needed time to set or whatever?"

Re: The Bar - 11/11.

[somethingwithturquoise]

"Behold," said Summer, in a very mild sort of announcer voice that was super low-key despite the grin on her face, as she gestured ala Vanna White to the shot maker, "the power of technology."

Then she laughed a little, grin warming. "Barry rigged this up for me," she explained. "It's essentially part mixer, part blast chiller, so you just throw everything in and it sets within a few minutes. I don't use it as much as I should because I actually kind of like the process of making them, you know? But I'm a little flux with supplies right now and thought it would be a good way to share the wealth.

"So," she said, emphasizing it because this was the important part, "what are we getting you, Annie?"

Re: The Bar - 11/11.

[superjoanjett]

"Look at you consorting with the competition," Jessica joked. "Wouldn't you rather be getting a discount?"

Re: The Bar - 11/11.

[superjoanjett]

"Who the fuck would drink a shot with carrots and cabbage?"

And hello to you too, Summer.

Re: The Bar - 11/11.

[somethingwithturquoise]

"Eleanor Shellstrop," said Summer without missing a beat. Thens he shook her head softly. "And there's got to be at least one other person out there, and I'm here for them when they get here."

She then offered over a smile.

"What are we doing today? Should I start assuming the bourbon's a staple, or do you like to mix it up?"

Re: The Bar - 11/11.

[mother_forker]

It was like a Siren's call. Beckoning a sailor to rocky shores.

Eleanor appeared at the bar and slapped her hands on the table in joy.

"Carrots and cabbage please!"

Re: The Bar - 11/11.

[somethingwithturquoise]

"And here I was afraid I was going to have to forcefeed them all to Tino later," said Summer, who would never, but she might just pester him enough until he gave in just to get rid of her.

And so, lo, Eleanor had her carrots and cabbage jello shot and Summer gave her a proud little grin.

"You'll let me know what you think, of course."

The Lounge - 11/11.

[somethingwithturquoise]

Where you can...lounge.

And get as far away from anything involving carrots, cabbage, rum, and jello all in one breath, too.

OOC - 11/11.

[somethingwithturquoise]

Having the last few Wednesday off have spoiled me and I'm very bummed about having to work tonight. :(
