Caritas; Wednesday [08/17].

[somethingwithturquoise]

It was rare for shipments of new stock showed up on Wednesdays, and, usually, when it did, they were horrible, so maybe that trepidation had something to do with the instant relief and fondness when what Summer pulled out of the box was not, in her humble opinion, horrible at all, but, in fact, was just the opposite.

"Ohmygod," she said, almost immediately on seeing the bright colors and then sealing the deal by seeing what kind of booze it was, and tucked the bottle into herself. "I love this."

Love at first sight, in fact, but would that love withstand the test of tasting?

"Hold on," she told Tino, "I need the jello maker, I cannot leave this un-jello'd tonight, I will be right back, and I swear to god, if you do anything weird to this stuff while I'm gone, I will end you, Tino. And it won't be pretty. It will be gelatin related."

So she hurried off to fetch her auto-shot maker so that she could whip up a few good sangria shots to join the ones she'd made for the evening, garnishing them neatly with a few sangria gummies that she just happened to have lying around, because, um, excuse you, who didn't?

And then she was going to pour herself a glass before updating the specials board. Sure, she was working, but she was also practically immune to the first glass of sangria by now, so it was fiiiiiine.

The Stage - 08/17.

[somethingwithturquoise]

Get on up and belt out a tune for zombies and drunks alike!

The Bar - 08/17.

[somethingwithturquoise]

Where Summer apparently is not yet sick of sangria. Which is a good thing, because she also feels she might be needing to whip up more again here very soon....

It turned out that Goose wasn’t sick of Sangria either because he came up to his usual spot at the bar, tilted his head at the specials and blinked, “is that a different Sangria to what we had the other night?”

Re: The Bar - 08/17.

[somethingwithturquoise]

"It is a different sangria than the one we had the other night!" Summer confirmed, not even hesitating to pour Goose a glass and set it in front of him, along with one of the accompanying jello shots. "It's a new one for the bar that was delivered today, just look at the colors on this bottle. It so totally speaks to me on a deep level, even though, I mean, you lose it at the tug boat part, but still! There's also cute dolphins!"

He had telepathic dolphin friends! He should appreciate cute dolphins on a bottle, too!

Re: The Bar - 08/17.

[notagoose]

Goose definitely appreciated the cute dolphins on the bottle and smiled at their image.

“You know they do actually kind of look like Icarus and Winter,” Goose considered with a tilt of his head.

Re: The Bar - 08/17.

[somethingwithturquoise]

And so now Summer was having a closer look at the dolphins on the bottle.

"Awww," she concluded, "they sound adorable, then."

Re: The Bar - 08/17.

[notagoose]

"They are," Goose smiled softly at that, he didn't really get to talk about Icarus and Winter that much, "they're pretty amazing, it's a shame they don't get to go on more missions," he considered.

Rey blinked at the specials as she took her seat. "The cookie one doesn't seem bad?"

Look at that. Look! At! That!

Re: The Bar - 08/17.

[somethingwithturquoise]

And behold! Summer was seizing that opportunity and making sure Rey had a rainbow cookie one immediately.

"Because it's not bad," she assured her. "You know, statistically speaking, most of them aren't bad."

It was just that the ones that were bad were usually so bad that statistics didn't count for shit.

"I remember one having tuna," Rey pointed out. "That taints things."

Remember that whole conversation weeks ago about going too far?

Re: The Bar - 08/17.

[somethingwithturquoise]

"It's always interesting, too," Summer mused, idly, with a grin, "what manages to stand out to people with the bad ones. I think tuna is definitely fair, though. But I like the occasional day where nearly everything is safe, too, you know."

Re: The Bar - 08/17.

[thatwaslucky]

"Me too. Because I like and try to support your work," Rey smiled.

Liz was having one of her better weeks, so she decided she was feeling up to being social for a couple of hours at least and came up to the bar.

"I don't suppose you have a non alcoholic version of sangria?" Liz wasn't actually sure if there could be one but she figured it would hurt to ask first.

Re: The Bar - 08/17.

[somethingwithturquoise]

"Not of that one, no," Summer admitted a little apologetically. "Those were a rush job that I used the auto-maker for, but I do have the auto-maker with me, so if you give me a few minutes, I don't know, I could pour some juice in there and it'll be....kind of the same?"

Now that she said it, she realized that would probably definitely work.

"Actually, no, let's do that, give me just a second and we'll have some juice variant virgin shots. Not exactly the same, but, it'll maybe do?"

Re: The Bar - 08/17.

[flamesburned]

Liz really had no idea but she trusted Summer so she nodded, “okay I can definitely do that," she said, "and it will be something new as well to try," she considered.

Re: The Bar - 08/17.

[somethingwithturquoise]

So Summer took a moment to consider what sort of juices might best resemble the sangria for the evening (after a testing sip from her glass to remind herself, of course), and then grabbed what she needed to pour into the little insta-shot maker she'd brought from home.

"So," she said, while it did its thing, which was remarkably quick, so it wasn't long before a few pieces of dark red jello were set down in front of Liz, "how's it going this week, Liz?"

Re: The Bar - 08/17.

[stykera]

"All of those sound safe," Stark said, just a little suspiciously as he looked at the specials board. "Are they all safe?"

And none sounded like they involved chocolate pudding which was a relief after this morning's shenanigans.

Re: The Bar - 08/17.

[somethingwithturquoise]

"They're all safe," Summer assured Stark with a pleased sort of nod, already going to place each one in front of him proudly, to enjoy at his leisure, confident that he could trust her on that one. "Assuming you don't find fruit or coffee or cocoa offensive, anyway."

Which she knew he did not.

Re: The Bar - 08/17.

[stykera]

Stark did trust her, of course. And that would not in any way ever cause any trouble in the future, obviously.

"I don't find any of those offensive," he assured her. Which she already knew. And he didn't object to sangria, obviously, so he was going to start with that.

"How are you tonight, Summer?"

Re: The Bar - 08/17.

[somethingwithturquoise]

"Ehhhh," came the response, a little bit of a reluctantly pulled out sound, but it was honest enough, because she really didn't feel like just putting on a happy face in front of Stark, but she also didn't want to spread any unnecessary worry about Annie and her situation, either. "Not the best, but it's one of those things where you know a situation is bad, but you have confidence it will get better, but there's not really anything you can do at the moment except sit and wait and see how goes. Which, you know, is not great, but I'm trying not to focus on it, you know?

Which hopefully meant deflecting the topic back to him successfully.

"How about you?" And then, a smirk. "How'd bowling go?"

The Lounge - 08/17.

[somethingwithturquoise]

Have a seat, enjoy your drinks, don't heckle the zombies, but, if you don't, don't be surprised if any loose body parts come flying your way.

The Back Room - 08/17.

[somethingwithturquoise]

Today there does seem to be a bunch of squirrels who think the stripper pole is a may pole, which doesn't even make sense, you guys, it's August, but okay.

OOC - 08/17.

[somethingwithturquoise]

I am honored that people see obnoxious boozy things and think of me. ♥.

Re: OOC - 08/17.

[thatwaslucky]

It's sangria, it's pink, and there are explosions. I mean...

Re: OOC - 08/17.

[stykera]

If anyone needed to know about dinosaur shaped wine gummies...
