Caritas; Wednesday [06/08].

[somethingwithturquoise]

Yeah, yeah, okay, okay. Since the religion angle seemed to be pretty hot and gaining some traction in the whole Chocobro Situation, discovering that book could be a pretty big deal. Buuuut, if you asked Summer, the best part about it was that it inspired a pretty sick jello set for the bar that evening, which was way better than her original plan of some random shit plus maybe a Pride preview or two.

And even though she knew it wouldn't get to him, Summer was definitely taking a shot of the full set and a description of them to Ignis. Maybe he could still, like, appreciate them in spirit.

And speaking of spirit...after she got everything set up for the night, she did consider the shots and also considered arranging them in certain ways that might feel vageuly arcane. As if making some sort of summoning circle, because, hey, you never knew! She knew Eos had demons; maybe they just had to go occult with this shit or something.

Come sing for your jello! Or sing because it's fun! Or you're really trying to get that record deal, but, I'm sorry, bruh, it just ain't happening.

The Bar - 06/08.

[somethingwithturquoise]

This is where the drinks are! And the bartenders!

Goose had actually stopped working on his communicator long enough to get at least get some sleep last night and had only had a couple of coffees today, that was progress for him ... somewhat.

"There was another blip," he announced by way of greeting as he took his usual seat at the bar, "I got it yesterday, I still don't know how I got it but I heard Ignis mention something about a Fulgarian?" that was when he noticed the special boards, "you managed to find out something?" he asked, tilting his head as he read it.

Re: The Bar - 06/08.

[somethingwithturquoise]

As soon as Goose mentioned the Fulgarian, Summer got a little look on her face that was faintly amused and wondering how long it would take him to notice, and was...pleasantly surprised, actually, how it didn't take long at all.

"Heeeey," she said, pointing out that particular shot on the board, "that's this guy! He does shit with lightning!"

She was very proud of her very detail new expertise on the Eosian Hexatheon now, thank you.

But she figured Goose, out of anyone, would probably want to know a little bit more on how she'd acquired that knowledge, and she figured he'd be in today, so she brought the book with her and now slid it across the counter for him.

"Found that in the CG apartment," she explained. "Must have slid behind the dresser and been forgotten about for a while now."

And then she started lining up Goose's shots for him, too.

Re: The Bar - 06/08.

[notagoose]

It was like he was more alert or something, wonder how that could be?

"Oh," Goose was rather curious as he took a look at it to see what kind of information there would be, "lightning? Do you think that might be why we got the feedback through the communicator this time?" he was now thinking back to the other blips and wondering if there was anything specific he could recall about the gods that might have been with them then.

Liz had hoped she'd have better news when she came in to the bar since the talk with Sidon hadn't given her exactly what news she was after, even though she did feel rather bad that she hadn't thought to check in on him sooner.

She also wished she was feeling a bit more energetic, she was still feeling tired, even though she had been sleeping better than she had last week.

"Hi," she said as she sat at the bar and then took a look at the specials, "the Inferian?" she asked, noting there seemed to be a bit of a theme with the shots and of course she went with the fire themed one.

Re: The Bar - 06/08.

[somethingwithturquoise]

Yeah, why was Summer not surprised that that's where Liz immediately went to? She grinned a little and, lo and behold, voila!, said Inferian shot was set out before her.

"Ifrit," she added, as if that name should ring a bell for Liz, enough though she doubted it would. She was going to give a dramatic pause, though, to work through it before adding. "One of the Astrals."

This time, she was going to pause more genuinely to see if that sparked anything, and figured, if that one didn't land, the next one would:

"From Eos."

Re: The Bar - 06/08.

[flamesburned]

At that Liz perked up a lot more, “you managed to find something?” she was hopeful, “I talked with Sidon yesterday and he didn’t really know anything about their religious beliefs, just that the oracle was able to commune with the gods and that the ring was considered to be very important to the crown of Lucis,” she hesitated, feeling a little guilty and added, “he didn’t even know what was going on, the last thing he had heard was that the wedding was going to be happening,”

Liz reached over to pick up the shot, looking at it rather curiously, "it's very pretty, I like the glitter in there," she said, "Ifrit?" she repeated the name, "I'll have to ask Steven next time I see him, maybe Konshu knows the name?"

It had been a week since his return to the island and Dwight was still out of sorts after being gone for so long. He had gotten some shopping done and was sort of making headway with getting the shop and apartment back in order. He still wasn't sure the whole socializing thing was best, but he knew he owed Summer a visit and to at least let her know he was back. And so there he was, walking into Caritas, and slipping up to the bar to grab a seat, with a small, awkward, and apologetic smile heading Summer's way as he did.

Re: The Bar - 06/08.

[somethingwithturquoise]

"Dwiiiiight!" If anything, at least he knew swinging by the bar on Summer's night would mean a cheerful greeting and plenty of jello shots being pushed on him, and she met his arrival with a grin. "Welcome back, man! How've you been?"

Re: The Bar - 06/08.

[alwaysonguard]

Dwight managed a small smile and gave a little shrug. "Been better. But good... good to be back." He paused and looked around the bar for a moment then back to Summer. "How have things been for you? Sorry about... disappearing for so long. Family issues."

"You're going to have to help me on those specials," Rey said as she took her seat.

Re: The Bar - 06/08.

[somethingwithturquoise]

"They're gods," Summer explained, a little too excited about it for someone who'd just learned about them yesterday, "from Prompto, Gladio, and Ignis' world. I basically found their Bible yesterday and got totally inspired. But for you?"

She considered Rey carefully.

"I'd probably go Glacian if you're feeling a little lighter and breezier, Inferian if you're feeling a little spicier. Hydraean'a pretty neutral, too, that's, like, mostly coconut and Sprite, but look at the adorable gummy sharks!"

Re: The Bar - 06/08.

[thatwaslucky]

"...I kind of want the gummy shark," Rey admitted. Sometimes she was seven.

Re: The Bar - 06/08.

[stykera]

"Those are different," Stark said, eyeing the specials. "I think? Are they all meant to be consumed this week?"

There had to be a better way to ask that but Stark hadn't figured out the wording yet.

"Hello, Summer."

Re: The Bar - 06/08.

[somethingwithturquoise]

Honestly, all things considered, that was actually a pretty good way to ask, in Summer's opinion, though she felt an addition that took into consideration who they were meant to be consumed by could be made.

But for now, she nodded. "They are all meant to be consumed," she was proud to report, "though the Draconian may be a little rough for some, all depending on how you feel about liquorice. Also, one has jalapeno, but I swear, it works. Ultimately, though, the Hydraean has candy and the Archaean is chocolate, so those might be your best bets."

"I feel like I didn't go to school enough to know what these shots are," Annie admitted, frowning at the board as she slid onto a stool.

Re: The Bar - 06/08.

[somethingwithturquoise]

"Well," Summer offered almost consolingly, "it would have probably have been a school on a different planet, anyway. These are Eosian gods. Aaaastrals. From where Gladio, Prompto, and Ignis are from."

And, knowing that still wasn't that helpful, she added, "Basically, chocolate, mango jalapeno, coconut Sprite with gummy sharks, Sambuca, champagne lemonade-y, and Fireball."

Re: The Bar - 06/08.

[my_own_advocate]

"Are we in some kind of mood today?" Lucifer asked, glancing at the board.

He wasn't sure what kind.

Re: The Bar - 06/08.

[somethingwithturquoise]

"We have been inspired" Summer explained, already starting to line the shots up for Lucifer, "by some dusty old book I found behind a dresser in an abandoned bedroom."

Did that help?

"These are based on the Astrals," she offered, a little further, "the six deities of Eos."

Re: The Bar - 06/08.

[weirderthanthou]

"I'll have an iced tea with the beer today," Jesse announced. She sank into her seat with a sigh.

Re: The Bar - 06/08.

[somethingwithturquoise]

The beer, Summer had ready, and set it in front of Jesse. Then went to get the iced tea.

"Why the iced tea?" she asked, hoping the answer didn't come with a rim shot.

The Lounge - 06/08.

[somethingwithturquoise]

There are usually drinks here, too, but fewer bartenders.

The Back Room - 06/08.

[somethingwithturquoise]

We generally try not to think of certain bartenders spending too much time back here.
