The Devil's Nest, Thursday, January 28, 2021

There was a penis cake behind the bar today. Eric had seen more than his share of drunken bachelorette parties thanks to Fangtasia, and all of Tiny's protests about it being a wizard cake were falling on deaf ears.

It did inspire the strawberry daiquiri drink special tonight, though.

Come on in. Have some cake.

"Wow, they really tried to make that not look like a penis, didn't they?" Faye asked in greeting, tilting her head at the cake. "Special... wizard-related occasion?"

"I try not to learn to much about Tiny's personal life," Eric said. "It's better that way."
flourish_or_perish: ([pb] listening)

[personal profile] flourish_or_perish 2021-01-29 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
"Probably," Faye agreed, settling onto a barstool. "Should I be suspicious of the daiquiris, in that case?"
texted3times: (i laugh at you)

"He knows better than to mess with the alcohol," Eric assured her with a wink.
flourish_or_perish: ([pb] smirky girl)

"Then I'll take one of those," Faye decided, waving over at Tiny. "And how are you? I haven't seen you since that Christmas party and there's been so much dumb shit here since then."

Faye had been a fairy, if one wanted to go in reverse chronological order of dumb shit.
texted3times: (looking at you)

[personal profile] texted3times 2021-01-29 01:40 am (UTC)(link)
"I've been trying to avoid the dumb shit, but I got hit with it on Saturday," Eric said, making a face. "I could turn into a bat. Why. Why?"
flourish_or_perish: ([an] what do you need?)

[personal profile] flourish_or_perish 2021-01-29 01:45 am (UTC)(link)
Amazing.

"I was a fairy," Faye offered sympathetically, holding her fingers a few inches apart to indicate the scale of her fairy self. "A bat sounds way worse, I'm so sorry."
texted3times: (i smile)

[personal profile] texted3times 2021-01-29 01:51 am (UTC)(link)
"It was much worse," Eric agreed. "When I wasn't a bat, I spent my time in a cape, lurking in shadows and lisping with a terrible, indeterminate Eastern European accent." He smiled. "I'm glad I didn't see you as a fairy. I might've tried to eat you and that would have been very, very awkward."

And not child-friendly!
flourish_or_perish: ([pb] not like a LOT of patience here)

[personal profile] flourish_or_perish 2021-01-29 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
"I probably wouldn't have enjoyed that." Also child-unfriendly were the several double-entendres that Faye was holding back because it was just too easy. "A cape might suit you, though. Very dramatic."
texted3times: (i smile)

[personal profile] texted3times 2021-01-29 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
"I was extremely dramatic in it," Eric said, grinning toothily. "Very swoopy. How was life as a fairy?"

Anything like Sookie?

"Very small," Faye admitted. "And I couldn't talk to anyone, which was a real shame. But I could fly, and that was all right."

Not all right enough to put up with the rest of it, but it was the one thing she'd liked.

[personal profile] texted3times 2021-01-29 02:28 am (UTC)(link)
"Why couldn't you talk?" Eric asked as Tiny brought the strawberry daiquiri and a Tru Blood and SoCo (gross, Eric, why) for them.
flourish_or_perish: ([pb] annoyed)

[personal profile] flourish_or_perish 2021-01-29 03:59 pm (UTC)(link)
"Think I was too high-pitched for most people," Faye guessed, gratefully taking her daiquiri with a little salute to Tiny. "But I made a sort of twinkly noise when I flew and I had this, like, dust that fell off me." She wrinkled up her nose, shaking her head. "Like, I've been lucky so far with the dumb shit, but when it actually hit me, it hit me."
texted3times: (gif smile)

[personal profile] texted3times 2021-01-29 05:44 pm (UTC)(link)
"You were covered in fairy dust?" Eric said, sniggering. "That's pretty high up there with dumb shit."

Said the vampire.

"I'd say it's about a half-step below the candy cane bullshit, but yeah," Faye sighed, rolling her eyes. "But then, it also sounds like the island decided to get a little literal and folklore-y with you last weekend. Honestly kind of surprised you can't normally do the bat thing, based on what I'd assumed about vampires."

Now she was going to have to ask Allie if she could change into one, normally.

"I can fly without needing to be a bat," Eric said.
flourish_or_perish: ([an] scuse me?)

[personal profile] flourish_or_perish 2021-01-29 09:29 pm (UTC)(link)
"Nuh uh!" Not so much a doubtful 'nuh uh' as an incredulous one. "Really? That's new. Like, how high can you fly?"
texted3times: (Default)

[personal profile] texted3times 2021-01-29 09:48 pm (UTC)(link)
"I'm not going to hit a 747 or anything," Eric said, "but pretty high."
flourish_or_perish: ([pb] listening)

[personal profile] flourish_or_perish 2021-01-29 10:07 pm (UTC)(link)
"And with control?" Faye checked. "I have a ship that I can fly in, but flying without a craft seems much more brag-worthy."

"I have a lot of control," Eric said, wiggling his eyebrows because of course he did.
flourish_or_perish: ([pb] listening)

[personal profile] flourish_or_perish 2021-01-30 05:07 pm (UTC)(link)
"I'm sure you do," Faye purred, because of course she did. "You've had, like, a thousand years or whatever to practice, right?"

She thought she was exaggerating.
texted3times: (door loitering)

"I have indeed," Eric said, taking a long drink from his glass. "I'm very good at it."

"I'm sure you're good at lots of stuff." God, please, Faye, lay it on thicker. "But doesn't it get boring, being a million years old or whatever?"

Lot of time to work on your control, sure, but also a lot of time to do everything at least once and then what?

"There's always something new to learn and see," Eric said. "The internet, for instance. I love texting."
flourish_or_perish: ([an] smokesalot lady)

[personal profile] flourish_or_perish 2021-01-30 07:33 pm (UTC)(link)
"It's much easier than having to call someone," Faye agreed. "Or - you know, whatever you all did before the phone?"

Letters? Carrier pigeons? Smoke signals?
texted3times: (expressive eyebrows)

"We sent ravens."

Eric was such a liar.
