WHO: Selina & Helena & Booster & Guy & Kyle
WHERE: Guy's bar
WHEN: Night of 5/2
SUMMARY: Selina takes Helena to a Green Lantern bar, hilarity ensues?
WARNINGS: Will update if needed!
FORMAT: Quicklog!

[ It was weird to suddenly have a daughter old enough to drink with. But nothing wrong with taking advantage of that to have a new drinking buddy, right? Besides, she'd been wanting to check out just what kind of bar Guy was running.

She'd told Helena to meet her there, so she kept an eye out for her when she stepped in. She took in the decor in a glance. Not bad. ]

[Helena was there not too long after her mom arrived, having had just a bit of trouble finding the place. She was still getting used to not knowing every street and alley just yet. The fact that she couldn't just rely on Oracle to help her out was still new too.

Still, she wasn't too late when she stepped into the bar and spotted Selina.]

Hey there.

[Guy had been checking stock when the girls arrived at the bar. When they came in, he poked his head up over the counter, then grinned wide on recognizing one of the two women.]

Selina! What a sight for sore eyes!

[And out he came from around the counter, arms spread for a welcoming hug.]

[Kyle was just chilling in one of the booths, reading his Lord of the Rings novel, because after having spent years doing nothing but superhero work, he wanted to ensure that his brain hadn't turned into mush by now. He looks up when he hears Guy's bellowing voice, glancing over at the two women who had just came in.]

Helena? [He slides out of his seat to stand, still holding his book.] Hey! Selina, too.

[ Selina had barely greeted Helena when Guy came at her with open arms. A bit surprising, but she let him have the hug. ]

Hey Guy.

[ And she tossed Kyle a wave as he headed over. ]

[Helena's eyes narrowed at the sight of the two other men and then back to her mother as wondered if this was some sort of set up. She'd have to ask later. Smiling, she waved to Kyle.]

Hey Kyle!

Nice to see ya. You want a drink?

[After welcome hugs, Guy turned his attention to the other girl who'd come in. She did sound familiar and it only took a moment for his memory to whirl.]

Helena... you're the chick from the network?

[He gave her a quick once over and, oh Kyle, he is never going to stop ragging on you now.]

[Kyle just represses a groan, reaching up to face-palm on reflex, but rubs the side of his neck instead, averting his eyes as he somewhat grimaces. He hopes Guy doesn't go overboard with Helena; he wants her impression of him to remain good, after all.]

[ Selina raises an eyebrow at Guy's comment. ]

Guy, meet my daughter, Helena. And yes, we'd like drinks.

[She flashed the man, Guy, a smile and held out her hand.]

Helena Kyle, nice to meet you.

Daughter, huh?

[Guy looks surprised and glances from Helena to Selina and back again. After a little more blinking, he chuckles and takes Helena's hand for a firm shake.]

Well, nice to meet you too, kiddo.

[Because obviously Selina's daughter has honourary kids status. It if helps, so does Kyle.]

I know your mom's a whiskey gal, but what's your poison?

[Kyle places his book on the nearest table, so that he's free to cross his arms.]

Guy, you have no idea how much of an old man you make yourself look when you call grown people kids. [He just laughs, giving Helena a knowing grin.]

[ Selina laughs a bit at Kyle's comment. ]

Scotch specifically. And drinks are on me.

[Being a bartender, Helena knows just which drinks are a pain in the ass to make.]

A Mojito if you've got time. Whatever mom's having if not.

[And she slides over very non-nonchalantly to Kyle.]

What were you working on?

[Booster flew to Warrior's, decked out in his civilian clothes left over from Mary's storage unit. He burst in with a flourish and a shout.]

GUY GARDNER, YOU OWE ME A--ladies.

Working on? It's just a book I was rea -- [Stops upon Booster interrupting, looking up.]

Hey Mike.

[ Said in a totally offhand voice, like she could care less. ]
