Caritas- Tuesday

[throughaphase]

Let it be known that unless there was a problem, Kitty got to work early. So she was surprised to find a raging party already going on.

Tino, missing a shirt but handing out plenty of those shots in test tubes, had decided to advertise Caritas as a spring break destination, and these kids had actually fallen for it. It was also possible they'd started drinking too early enough to care.

Okay. Well. Kitty was going to have to line up rickshaws and do a hell of a lot of cleanup but at least Lexi's college was paid for?

Stage

[throughaphase]

There is absolutely drunken karaoke happening for once.

Bar

[throughaphase]

All Tino is doing is lining up shots, so that's a good sign, right?

This was absolutely not what Rosa was usually in for when she came here for Tuesday night drinking with her bestie, and she almost just nope'd right out, but actually? As she walked in and watched some kid eat the floor on his way to the stage, she realized...the potential for pure entertainment in the form of shaudenfruede was ripe and ready to be cultivated.

"This your doing?" she asked Kitty when she got to the bar, taking another look around to soak in the chaos.

She felt she already knew the answer to that question.

Re: Bar

"Nope!" Did Kitty have to raise her voice to be heard over people? Yes! "This is Tino and I both hate him and am making great tips."

Re: Bar

"It's a double edge sword!" Rosa shouted back. "You know I hate people, but these dummies are hilarious."

She was going to be thoroughly entertained, anyway.

"Get me a whiskey, Kitty! And probably a couple of towels, because if any of these jackholes try to hit on me, I am definitely ending up in the pond."

It was pretty much bound to happen at least once. Which was fine. She'd always considered a trip to the pond a badge of pride.

"Cheerful lady from the coffee shop," Faye greeted her, sidling up next to Rosa so she didn't have to shout quite so loud. "Matchmaker. Web-guy's girlfriend."

Give her like, one sec, she'd dig the name she'd been given out of the recesses of her memory, here. "Rosa, right?"

Re: Bar

[died8yearsago]

You did so much better than Rosa, Faye, who was just sort of staring blankly at her with a lack of recognition until she got to 'web-guy's girlfriend.'

And that only helped marginally.

"Uhhh, yeah." Faye's name had long since shuffled out of Rosa's memory, although now she did pick up on 'cheerful' and 'coffee shop's and realized why she looked familiar at least.

She closed her eyes with a sigh into her drink over the fact that anyone could logically consider her 'cheerful lady from the coffee shop.'

"That's me..."

Re: Bar

[flourish_or_perish]

"This is great!" Faye yelled in greeting. "Where'd all these people come from?"

She didn't know about spring break, no, but she already loved it.

Re: Bar

[throughaphase]

"Tino has spring break connections, I guess," Kitty said, loudly. "This is both the best and worst idea."

Re: Bar

[flourish_or_perish]

"He should wear a shirt," Faye said, definitely loud enough for Tino to hear her, "but this is great. We should do this all the time!"

She was going to make off with so much money from drunk people who weren't minding their pockets.

Look. LOOK. If there was a raging college party going on in her bar, Summer Smith was going to somehow find out about it.

It helped that she lived right across the street and was very finely tuned to all the external hints that she was going to be all about whatever was going on inside.

She eventually made it to the bar,after what had been an especially ineffective conversation with Tino where he was trying to tell her she should really check out the backroom and about fifty million distractions between here and then.

And when she did, she shouted something at Kitty, but even if the music and the crowd wasn't sound, she probably wouldn't have been heard. Between shouting over a Screaming Sun in class earlier today, yelling at Tino that she couldn't hear him, and telling everyone between the door in the bar that they should totally come back tomorrow because she was bartending that night, she literally had, like, no voice left.

But she was trying!

Re: Bar

[throughaphase]

It was possible Kitty yelled "What?" because she was just yelling that in case she'd missed hearing people.

Re: Bar

[somethingwithturquoise]

"I said," Summer managed, but anything after that was completely buried and lost, and even if Kitty was an exceptional lip reader, all the gestured that went with it probably distracted with it.

But there was a good chance that whatever it was ended with the word "experience."

"Anyway," she then managed to get out, followed by something else that disappeared, but it came back in time for her to get out "Summer Smith!"

Wanna know who came to the bar with a kid on this day? This guy right here.

In his defense... the kid had definitely seen worse than this.

"Busy night," Din called over the noise as some drunk college students cooed over the kid.

Re: Bar

[throughaphase]

"Spring break," Kitty explained. "Apparently. Who's this?"

He did not look old enough for this crowd.

Re: Bar

[thedadalorian]

He was fifty, Kitty. So clearly old enough to be anywhere he wanted.

Din sort of tilted his head at 'spring break' like that was supposed to mean anything to him. "Kid," he said as he the child was distracted by phone cameras pointed at him. "Grogu. Ignore 'em."

Grogu was gonna end up Tiny King of Spring break.

Re: Bar

[flourish_or_perish]

"Welcome to the party!" Faye shouted at her boss and his toddler.

Like you do.

Re: Bar

[thedadalorian]

"What are they celebrating?" Yes, explain Spring Break to him, other person without a clue.

Okay, so Juliet's school had sent her home with a cowbell for "musical enrichment" and she had been doing duets with Christopher and a banthabell that Rory had gleefully turned over to them before hiding in her office for a Zoom call and so Anakin, frankly, hated everything right now and...and this was not helping.

"Why is it so loud?" he yelled at Kitty.

Re: Bar

[throughaphase]

As if on cue, some dude yelled, "Spring breeeeeeeak!!"

"Spring break," Kitty repeated.

Re: Bar

[thedadalorian]

Oh, Anakin wanted a quiet kid? He could totally get a quiet kid here.

Because one of those noisy, drunk party-goers moved away from the bar with their drinks to reveal Grogu sitting on the bar stool, virgin cocktail in his little, clawed hands. Sipping and staring.

Lounge

[throughaphase]

At least a couple couples have tried to hook up back here and been kicked out!

Back Room

[throughaphase]

Kitty hadn't noticed the Jello wrestling back here yet. But it was there.

Re: Back Room

[lovethatjourney]

Alexis wasn't participating in the Jello wrestling, ew.

She was however taking a break from all the body shots by being the one taking bets on the wrestlers.

OOC

[throughaphase]

This is Elaine's fault.
