5th Dusting

[makeitquick]

[Voice]

Hey, Azusa - ...Or anyone, I guess. Gonna risk beer. Want in?

[SO CLASSY, MEL.]

[Action]

[And then, as promised, you might see one Melaka Fray at good spirits... risking beer, as it was. Which is indeed a risk - the spirits they used in Haddyn were different than this and she's not familiar with normal, natural-ish ingredients. She'll only have a little, but that's enough to make her feel quite warm and quite silly. So you might catch her there, with her beer or with a cola in the downtime... or you might catch her outside on this night as she tries to cool herself down.

Once again, the duel with Harth was inconclusive. And she still doesn't know where he is. Where could he actually be hiding? It's obnoxious. ...and then, with a surprise, she finds that she can see her breath as a foggy thing in the night air. She actually starts at that, not expecting it. Weird. So weird.

Oh, and she has her weapons on her through this, of course - blaster, stake, and a sword which she mercifully puts on the counter in the bar itself]

[all7seas]

I have no idea what that means.

[He pours some off in a glass and sets it in front of her, along with a few peanuts.]

You can decide whether you like it or not for yourself.

[makeitquick]

[...Okay, that's fair. She looks at the cup a moment, and then leans in to sniff at it before anything. Get a feel for what it smells like up close]

[all7seas]

[Jack will just keep drinking. He's got an eye on what she's doing but he is trying not to be too obvious about it.]

[makeitquick]

[Okay it smells funky... now let's... stir it with a pinky, still looking at it from angles]

[all7seas]

It's not going to jump down your throat, you know. You actually DO have to drink it.

[makeitquick]

[TURN, glare. And then he draws out her pinky, to suck on the end of it.


...wow this tastes awful even in this small increment. Cough]

[all7seas]

So? Verdict? Spled or not so spled?

[makeitquick]

[Cough again-] Try toy.

[In fact, she's going to effortlessly leap the bar counter to get some water]

[all7seas]

Ah-----very toy. I can tell by how delighted you are with it. [Sarcasm.]

[makeitquick]

So toy.

[And there... sip of water, spit. There. Better]

[all7seas]

I agree, actually. But I suppose it's burnt most of my useful tastebuds away at this point.

[Untrue; Sparrow has an appreciation for delicious foods, after all.] But at least you gave it a go, eh?

[makeitquick]

Yeah. There's that.

[A light laugh. And she goes to get herself another glass of water, this time to drink]
