I8DT - Quick with a joke, or a light of your smoke (open)

by **Connor Marshall** » Fri Dec 30, 2011 6:34 pm

"So!" Connor said, leaning against the bar. "Summat I should call you other than 'that bad-arse gal'?"

by **Cassandra Reyes** » Fri Dec 30, 2011 6:35 pm

"I'm Cassandra Reyes," Cass says.

by **Connor Marshall** » Fri Dec 30, 2011 8:04 pm

"'Lo, then, Cassandra. I'm Connor."

by **Cassandra Reyes** » Fri Dec 30, 2011 9:47 pm

"Cass is fine," Cass says, "And it's nice to meet you, Connor."

by **Connor Marshall** » Sat Dec 31, 2011 12:50 am

"Pleasure's all mine, luv," he answered, sliding her a fresh beer to replace her near-empty one with a 'it's on me' gesture. "You know how it goes... the bartender's everyone's best mate. 'Specially after a few pints."

by **Cassandra Reyes** » Sat Dec 31, 2011 1:28 am

"Makes the tips better," Cass says with a grin.

by **Connor Marshall** » Sat Dec 31, 2011 1:30 am

"Damn, I hope so. I'd hate to be the best mate to a whole lot of cheapskates."

by **Cassandra Reyes** » Sat Dec 31, 2011 1:32 am

"Such a practical friend," Cass says, drinking her beer.

by **Melody Martens** » Sat Dec 31, 2011 2:14 am

Melody stepped up to the bar trying to take her mind off of boys for once. Booze would help, right?

"Something strong, please," she smiled at Connor, when she was able to get his attention, not immediately recognizing her high school classmate.

by **Cassandra Reyes** » Sat Dec 31, 2011 2:15 am

"Might want to try a different bar then," Cass says, "They only sell water here apparently."

by **Melody Martens** » Sat Dec 31, 2011 2:21 am

"Oh, holy shit, hey Cassandra. Long time no see," she smiled.

by **Cassandra Reyes** » Sat Dec 31, 2011 2:22 am

Cass smiles, "Yeah. It's good to see you too, Mel. What've you been up to?"

by **Melody Martens** » Sat Dec 31, 2011 2:25 am

"Blowing shit up, saving the world, breaking up with perfectly good guys for no reason, doing terrible, awful things to the knee I hurt in volleyball senior year," she smirked, "You know, same shit, different day."

by **Connor Marshall** » Sat Dec 31, 2011 2:26 am

"Which makes a pint sound brilliant right about now," Connor mused as he slid the glass across the bar to her. "Cheers, luv."

by **Cassandra Reyes** » Sat Dec 31, 2011 2:31 am

"Sounds stressful," Cass says.

by **Melody Martens** » Sat Dec 31, 2011 2:33 am

"Keep 'em coming, hottie," she smiled, pulling up a bar stool next to Cass.

by **Connor Marshall** » Sat Dec 31, 2011 2:34 am

"What I'm here for, innit?" Connor said with a smirk, still nursing his own drink behind the bar. He couldn't exactly go getting drunk on his shift, after all, so this one had to last.

by **Cassandra Reyes** » Sat Dec 31, 2011 2:36 am

"Pretty much. Alcohol and eye candy," Cass says with a smirk, "By the way, I think you dropped something."

by **Melody Martens** » Sat Dec 31, 2011 2:38 am

"It. Yes. That's why I'm in here," she chuckled to Cass. "What about you? How are you liking school here?"

Melody watched the interchange between her two companions with interest over her beer.

by **Connor Marshall** » Sat Dec 31, 2011 2:38 am

"I did? Oh, guess so," Connor said, bending over to pick the rag up to take it to the bucket with the other dirty rags in it. "Thanks."

by **Cassandra Reyes** » Sat Dec 31, 2011 2:40 am

Cass gives Connor a quick appraising look before turning back to Melody, "It's alright. I guess. No major incidents yet."

by **Melody Martens** » Sat Dec 31, 2011 2:42 am

"That ass sure seems like a major incident," she whispered to Cass.

by **Cassandra Reyes** » Sat Dec 31, 2011 2:45 am

"Damn straight," Cass whispers back.

by **Connor Marshall** » Sat Dec 31, 2011 2:55 am

Connor, oblivious to the ogling, got a new rag out and pulled the next load of glasses out of the little washer at the far end of the counter.

Apparently, the bulk was more than just for show, because the rack of bar glasses might as well have been empty as he carried it over to start drying.

by **Melody Martens** » Sat Dec 31, 2011 2:58 am

"I....god damn," she said under her breath to Cass.

by **Cassandra Reyes** » Sat Dec 31, 2011 3:01 am

"Dibs," Cass says.

by **Connor Marshall** » Sat Dec 31, 2011 3:04 am

"So, ladies," he said as he set the glasses down on the counter over the sink to drip dry for a bit. "Getting toward noon... either of you want a bite?" He did, after all, need to get some practice in on the grill. He didn't want to be stuck with shitty shifts forever.

by **Melody Martens** » Sat Dec 31, 2011 10:36 pm

"he's all yours," she whispered, giggling.

"Sure! What's good?" she asked after taking a sip of her beer.

by **Cassandra Reyes** » Sun Jan 01, 2012 12:58 am

"I could eat," Cass says.

by **Connor Marshall** » Sun Jan 01, 2012 2:38 am

"Can't go wrong with a hamburger, luv," he answered Melody, pulling one of the menus from the back counter. "'Course, it's pub food an' I'm the one cookin' it, so can't go wrong with anything, really."

by **Melody Martens** » Sun Jan 01, 2012 2:43 am

"Burger and fries then. Er...chips," she smiled.

by **Connor Marshall** » Sun Jan 01, 2012 2:50 am

Connor smirked. "Don't worry, passed my 'Yank-talk 101' class," he joked, walking over to the grill to get things cooking.

by **Cassandra Reyes** » Sun Jan 01, 2012 2:57 am

"I'll just have some fries," Cass says, "Or onion rings if you have them."

by **Melody Martens** » Sun Jan 01, 2012 3:37 am

"We should probably ask for more elaborate things just to make him work harder," she smirked.

by **Connor Marshall** » Sun Jan 01, 2012 4:17 am

"Oh, time to put me through me paces, luv?" Connor said, smirking back at Melody as he put a burger onto the grill. "Well, if that's the game, then let's play."

by **Melody Martens** » Sun Jan 01, 2012 3:19 pm

Melody grinned and pored over the menu, looking for the most obscure--but without being needlessly expensive or disgusting--item on there to try and make him cook.

by **Cassandra Reyes** » Sun Jan 01, 2012 6:07 pm

"Fine," Cass says with a grin, "I'll have a scotch egg."

by **Connor Marshall** » Sun Jan 01, 2012 6:14 pm

And with that, Connor took out a hardboiled egg and started wrapping sausage around it. "Just one, luv?" he asked, keeping an eye on the grill as he did.

by **Cassandra Reyes** » Sun Jan 01, 2012 6:16 pm

"One's fine," Cass asks, "You want one, Mel?"

by **Connor Marshall** » Sun Jan 01, 2012 6:18 pm

Connor, in the meantime, looked at the breadcrumbs that he had to roll the egg in and made a face, looking around to see what he could season it with.
