Ortlinde: Hey y'all, my big sister Rossweisse said things were gettin' a bit feisty over in the Character Chatroom, so they decided to open this place for any of y'all that need to talk about "adult content." *makes air quotes with hands.* I'm Ortlinde, Valkyrie of Asgard and your semi-supernatural barkeep/bouncer. Ross is a bit of a prude, so she said it might be better if I handled things in here. I'm a morally gray character, so I might be persuaded to look the other way on a fake ID, but I've been a Southern Woman for the past four hundred years - which means I can and will throw you out on your ass if you take it too far. That said, all that time in the American South means I can make a pretty mean Sazerac. So, what are y'all havin'?
Maddox: I don't really care for alcohol, and I'm underage anyway. But I literally haven't had milk in five years, so just... a cup of that would be nice... Rei: Heh, you're boring. Well, I don't have an ID, since I'm legally dead, but, uh, I am over 21. But, yeah, five years away from the civilized world means I don't remember anything about alcohol in general... What would you recommend? Maddox: [confused] Me? Rei: [smacks his arm] No, dumbass. Ort-- how do you pronounce that? Can I call you Linda? Linda, what would you recommend?
Amy: I would like to make a Bloody Mary, but I'm not sure what kind of alcoholic beverage I would like to drink. Alec: Oh, snap! Charlie: Are you shitting me? Everybody here goes to the extra trouble of making a second get-together specifically for adult language, and your best reaction is "snap"?
Ortlinde: *giving a drink to Rei* Oh, so you haven't got any idea how to order a cocktail is what you're saying? Here's a Jack Daniels. *to Maddox* Here's a Sprite, kid.
Aidan and Ortho stagger in singing drunkenly Ortho: "Thank fuck for that, I can do without being told to mind my language... I'm a sell sword ffs, social niceties aren't my bag..." belches Aidan: "You said it bro... wheres Tax ? did he not come with" Ortho : "hes planted himself outside... says he needs time to think of a word ending that rhymes with ...lingus" Circa lands heavilly on the bar : " Wooooooo" - drops to floor before resuming human form. Aidan: Ale and Poteen all round,. Ortho's buying
Ortlinde: *looks up from polishing a brandy snifter* Well look what the cat dragged in. Y'all know I've been out of the Viking wishmaiden business for a long time, right?
Anna: Fuck Yes! Hey Ortilnde can I get a bottle of your oldest Scotch? Not that I can actually get drunk but it'll still be fun to drink.
Rei: [hesitantly takes a sip, coughs violently] Fuck, I should have more experience with this. [wipes mouth and chokes down another sip] Tastes... great... [thumbs up to Ortlinde] [mutters] just keep going, it'll taste better the more you drink... heh now everyone thinks I'm an immature fool, probably [grimaces, taking another hesitant sip] Maddox: [blatantly laughs at Rei] Hah. Slow down, Phoenix. Rei: [glares at Maddox over the rim of the glass and shoves him away] Fuck off. Maddox: [stumbles] Jeez, calm down. Just bring everything down. [edges away from Rei, notices the Sprite] Ooh! I haven't had one of these in forever! [grins widely and takes a huge gulp] Thanks, Linda! Wow, fizz. Been a while since I've experienced that. [blinks] Strange.
Ortlinde: *gingerly setting down drink* Macallan 1928 - drink that slowly or I'll consider breaking a bottle over your head. A cheaper bottle.
Ortlinde: Wow, Rei. Aren't you a big boy? And yes, you can call me "Linda" in here. My name in the human world these days is "Steffi-Jane Ortland" - but since the Valkyrie jig is already up in here, we'll go with Linda.
Anna: Go ahead a smash a bottle over my head I won't even flinch, I'm a vampire you moron, you can break a whole cask on my head and it wouldn't do any damage. Now if you'll excuse me I'm gonna mix the scotch with a few drops of the blood I brought with me to give it more flavor. Wanna try some ?
Ortlinde: Okay, one, that's digusting. *Hand turns into a ball of flame* Two, I'm a Valkyrie, so watch it.
Anna: Rei, you might wanna take it slow, you'll get the hang of it eventually just don't drown yourself in the stuff before that. And you might wanna start with lighter stuff and work your way up.
Anna: I don't give a fuck who you are. And blood's not disgusting its' the most breathtakingly delicious thing in the world, but you have to be a vampire to appreciate that. Oh and I can kill you before your little cute flame even reaches me.
Ortlinde: *laughs* Bite me, bitch. No, seriously, go ahead, but... *Hand loses fire but whites of eyes turn into glowing red coals* If you really want to find out what I'm made of, that's your call. I wouldn't recommend it - I know your kind.
Alex: Oh boy... Anna: *eyes turn into dark red -whites and all- fangs come out* you may know my kind but you don't know me. *Sniffs at Ortlinde* I'm not impressed, your blood smells like vinegar. Ugh.
Anna: Don't patronize me. Alex: Ok. Now that we're not killing each other anymore, maybe we can get some actual conversation going. Hey Anna mind sharing the Scotch and the blood with me? Anna: Sure little brother Alex: *sighs* I'm a whole decade olde- oh never mind, just pass the damn thing.
Just your friendly neighborhood Fet Doctor stopping in for a Pint. Keep your fangs to your selves, or I will own them, capiche? If you would like a friendly chat, the stool next to me is open at the bar. Otherwise I will enjoy my Sapporo in good health along with this cigarette.
Alex: I'm Alex, I'm a 372 year old vampire, looking to make some new friends here. Anna: And I'm his sister Anna. and I'm here to drink, and make friends and meet people. And have fun, it's been a stressful few months.
Alex: I'm Alex, I'm a 372 year old vampire, looking to make some new friends here. Anna: And I'm Anna, also a vamp and Alex's sister. and I'm here to drink, and make friends and meet people. And have fun, it's been a stressful few months.
