A: phone

I know not everyone here is from Earth, but today's Saint Patrick's Day and I for one am far too fond of Ireland to spend it sober. It's just disrespectful not to drink, really. [And she hasn't had a drink in forever, which just seems weird in and of itself.] So who's in for meeting me at the tavern? Wear green.

B: Olney's Tavern

[The beer here is awful, of course, but there'll be a peppy, slender blonde with a green ribbon in her hair ignoring the fact that women aren't "supposed" to be drinking and looking like she's trying to drink the whole town under the table. If she can get anyone to join her in a round or two of decent drinking songs, that'll be happening. It's only respectful, you know. Not that it's fun at all.

Come join her?]

And I am different from most women, merci bien.

[redwhiteandhero]

Fair enough. But I'm not exactly most men.

[Canada raised an eyebrow at that, well aware that he wasn't, but mostly debating whether or not to remind him he was a mere human here. And, well, she could probably drink him under the dingy little bar even if he wasn't.]

Enjoy your drink, then. I'll make sure you get home safely.

[redwhiteandhero]

[Oh, he learned his lesson about that earlier this week, thank you very much. Thanks for reminding him.]

That shouldn't be necessary.

[mounties]

If you say so, brother mine.

[redwhiteandhero]

[The bartender comes with his drink, and he takes a long, slow gulp of it.]

Have a little faith in me.

[mounties]

Only a little, though.

[redwhiteandhero]

And what do I have to do to prove myself?

[mounties]

Just give it time.

[She'll finish her drink and request another.]
