Bar Log ((OPEN))

WHO: Tom Bronson + OPEN
WHERE: the bar
WHEN: all week
WARNINGS: none
SUMMARY: Tom now owns the bar, and everyone gets their first drink free for the first week.
FORMAT: quick



[It was Tom's first couple weeks running the bar, and, surprisingly, it had gone pretty well so far. The transition itself was a bit of a challenge, but once he'd become accustomed to it, it really wasn't so bad at all. In fact, he found himself even enjoying the work, even if it meant extra hours for the time being, since the promotion and port-outs lately meant that they were running a bit understaffed.

That wasn't why he was pulling other duties besides just managing the place, though. Working behind the bard was one of the best jobs he had, and he really enjoyed it. He got to talk to people at the bar (and occasionally have a drink or two himself). It was the social aspect that he liked, which was why, to maybe draw in a few new regular customers, he was offering free drinks for the week.]

Oh, man. [That's bound to be weird as hell for her.]

Well, she's got the right attitude. Lady must be okay.

You've got good people round you, Laura. All of 'em. All the ones I've met, anyhow.
girlverine: (A Moment of Peace)

[personal profile] girlverine 2011-08-09 07:40 pm (UTC)(link)
She is.

[Laura smiles faintly and nods.]

I do. I am...glad you are one of them. It was strange when you left. Before. When you don't remember.
hellionated: (facewaitwhat)

[personal profile] hellionated 2011-08-09 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[ His eyes slide to her. She hasn't talked about that before. ]

What do you mean, strange?
girlverine: (Hum.)

[personal profile] girlverine 2011-08-09 10:59 pm (UTC)(link)
[Laura had no idea how to explain what she meant, because she honestly didn't know. She was quiet, looking slightly lost as she studied her drink.]

I don't know. It just...was.
hellionated: (facesmileeyebrow)

[personal profile] hellionated 2011-08-09 11:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He raises an eyebrow, completely thrown. He hadn't expected her to say any of that. ]

You've...never talked about that. When I was here before. Not since that first day.
girlverine: (Oh get on with it.)

[personal profile] girlverine 2011-08-09 11:11 pm (UTC)(link)
It does not matter.
hellionated: (laurafacetoface)

[personal profile] hellionated 2011-08-09 11:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Uh huh.

...

He frowns. ]


Did I do something wrong? ...Before?
girlverine: (No.)

[personal profile] girlverine 2011-08-09 11:37 pm (UTC)(link)
No.

[She's not sure how to explain.]

You were just...distant.
hellionated: (tekehandraise)

[personal profile] hellionated 2011-08-10 12:20 am (UTC)(link)
[ He stays quiet for a minute. ]

Distant. [ Not looking at her. ] I wasn't around?

...We weren't... [ He kind of signals between them because that makes so much sense. ] We didn't hang out like this.
girlverine: (Hmm?)

[personal profile] girlverine 2011-08-12 04:27 pm (UTC)(link)
No.

[One answer for three questions. She just shifted in her chair.]

But as I said it does not matter.
hellionated: (facelookdown)

[personal profile] hellionated 2011-08-12 07:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He looks at her for a long minute. Then he looks down at his drink, noting how depressingly non-alcoholic it is and deciding to change that as soon as possible. He drains it and signals for something involving vodka. ]

...

Does it matter if I say I'm sorry?
girlverine: (A rare smile.)

[personal profile] girlverine 2011-08-13 07:26 pm (UTC)(link)
You have nothing to apologize for, Julian.
hellionated: (facesmileeyebrow)

[personal profile] hellionated 2011-08-14 04:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Really? Me apologizing doesn't happen too often, you should take advantage.

[ He's trying to lighten the mood, even if he's so far done a great job of bringing it down. ]
girlverine: (Come Hither Claws.)

[personal profile] girlverine 2011-08-18 04:56 pm (UTC)(link)
[She smiles faintly.]

I...will remember this one for the next time you do something inappropriate.
hellionated: (facesmilesmug)

[personal profile] hellionated 2011-08-18 07:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[ That makes him laugh a little. ]

Thanks, I appreciate the rain check.
