Caritas; Wednesday [11/20].

[somethingwithturquoise]

When Summer came into the bar that evening, Tino asked her if she wanted to know his family's special recipe for stuffing, and she said no, but he told her anyway, and then she told him that now she was going to take that recipe and put it in jello, and so if anyone wondered why Tino was sulking at one end o the bar, it was because he had learned a very important lesson (which, let's be real, he should know by now with how long they'd been working together) in never telling Summer anything she doesn't want to know, because she will absolutely take that information and try to use it against you in any way she can.

And Summer was sulking because she really did mean it, she really didn't want to know, because you knew whatever was a traditional recipe in Tino's family had to be knowledge that no normal human should ever have to carry, which was why, on occasion, she just would occasionally find herself shouting out, "Really, Tino? Fucking raisins??" and looking at him like he was the ultimate scum of the Earth, because she was now convinced he very well may be.

The Bar - 11/20.

Try to decide if this is regular workplace tension or advanced workplace tension.

“Hello Summer Smith!” Yelena said as she looked over the specials and ignoring Tino. “I would like a flight of the Jell-O shots please. As usual they are too good to pass up.”

Re: The Bar - 11/20.

[somethingwithturquoise]

Just ignoring Tino was always the best option, yes.

"Hello, Yelena Belova," Summer greeted back. "And thank you!" Naturally, she began to line them up in front of her. "I think so, too, but I mean, obviously. I also think the cocktails pretty good to complete the set, if you're interested, toooooo..."

Of course she was going to try and push it, it was her job!

"We'll see how drunk I am after three shots first," Yelena said with a smirk. "I'd rather walk home instead of being carried. How is life with you Summer? Anything new and exciting? Or has it just been the usual strangeness?"

Re: The Bar - 11/20.

[somethingwithturquoise]

"Just sort of the usual," Summer admitted with a slight shrug. "Nothing too big or crazy. I don't know, it just seems like lately there hasn't been a lot of time for the really zany shit to step in, you know?"

Her chin quirked up at her. "How about you? Any new good 'still has some of that newbie shine' stories to tell? Or are we pretty much faded into a solid old hat by now?"

"Hello, Yelena," Stark said with a small wave.

Re: The Bar - 11/20.

[the_best_sister]

"Hello Stark who has no last name," Yelena replied. "Or do you have a last name that I have heard no one else utter ever?"

Anakin was here to receive his punishment for eating the cookie in class yesterday, but the Jello shots seemed delicious! Anakin would learn nothing!

"Good evening, Summer."

Re: The Bar - 11/20.

[somethingwithturquoise]

Even if Summer hadn't been staunchly refusing to be pigeon-holed into the expectations that people placed upon her, would Anakin still have learned anything, though?

"Anakin," said Summer, wondering if she should have found that greeting vaguely ominous. "How's it going?"

Re: The Bar - 11/20.

[sith_happened]

Probably not.

"Very well," he said with a smile. "Stark said he'd buy me a drink tonight."

Stark had said no such thing.

Re: The Bar - 11/20.

[stykera]

Did Anakin ever learn though?

"Hello, Anakin."

Re: The Bar - 11/20.

[sith_happened]

Not if it wasn't his idea to start with!

"Stark. I believe you owe me a drink."

That was one way to interpret class, yes.

Re: The Bar - 11/20.

[stykera]

Stark had no baked goods with him today but he had the usual kiss for his favorite bartender and the usual smile and "Hi."

Followed by a look at Tino and then a curious look back at Summer.

Re: The Bar - 11/20.

[somethingwithturquoise]

Summer settled back from the kiss and followed Stark's glance with a grown and a roll of her eyes. "Just don't even ask," she said, shaking her head, "but fair warning, I'd avoid raisins around me for while if you can help it."

That probably wasn't helping, Summer.

"But anyway!" She smiles over at him, and started to set out his shots. "Hi! How are you? Did you have a nice Wednesday?"

Re: The Bar - 11/20.

[stykera]

Stark's eyebrow went up.

"No oatmeal raisin cookies then,"he said, mostly to himself.

"It was a quiet day, as usual. Not even too much to read on radio this morning. Your day is all right so far? Aside from... whatever I'm not asking about."

Re: The Bar - 11/20.

[suitably_heroic]

IM STILL HOME!!!

That required a loud text, apparently.

Re: The Bar - 11/20.

[somethingwithturquoise]

A loud text that got a not-so-loud snort.

awwww congrats buddy!! I'm so proud of u!!!

Re: The Bar - 11/20.

[suitably_heroic]

look it was lookin touch and go for a while, Jack texted.

Then thought about it.

And finally grudgingly admitted, mical left me a letter at the hotel in case i wasnt dead and im not sure what to take away from that.

Maybe that your tendency to run away quietly was well-documented, Rand.

"It's my birthday and I require drinks about it!" Liliana announced as she sauntered into the bar.

Okay, so, technically yesterday had been her birthday, but so and also what? She deserved a weeklong celebration if she wanted one.

Re: The Bar - 11/20.

[the_best_sister]

"Her first drink is on me," Yelena declared to Tino. "Make it a fancy one. Happy birthday Liliana!"

Re: The Bar - 11/20.

[deathsmajesty]

"Thank you, darling!" Liliana said as she glided over to a stool. "It most certainly has been already thus far."

You know, like yesterday, when her actual birthday was.

Re: The Bar - 11/20.

[somethingwithturquoise]

"I was actually informed," said Summer, a bit wryly, as she reached for a few things to start mixing now that Liliana had arrived, "that you actually require a special special drink tonight..."

Guess who had called her with instructions in the event that she came in tonight. Go on. Guess.

Re: The Bar - 11/20.

[deathsmajesty]

Liliana's preening smile slipped momentarily, falling into warmly loving before remembering she was in public and shifted it back towards preening again. "Did he now?" she asked. "Do I get to know in advance or is it a surprise?"

Re: The Bar - 11/20.

[stykera]

"I didn't know," Stark said.

But then he only remembered a very small number of birthdays.

"Happy Birthday, Liliana."

Re: The Bar - 11/20.

[deathsmajesty]

Was it two?

"Thank you, darling," Liliana said, sipping one of her drinks. "It was yesterday, as close as I can calculate, though it's hardly a certainty. Dominaria has a thirteen month calendar."
