Devil's Nest 14 | As You Wish | Backdated to Mother's Day

[all_ofthethings]

-Action A: Outside of 624 Topper-

[Greed can be found taking down the sign reading 'Devil's Nest' which he hung on the front of the house just about a month ago. He likes it, but his drone wife has been complaining about it, and today he decided to take it down for her.]

-Action B: Around Town-

[After he's done there, he gathers two handfuls of roses from the front yard and hands some to every woman he crosses paths with.]

Anything I can help you with today, lovely?

-Action C: Olney's Tavern-

[At the bar, he's even more eager than usual to take orders from any woman who enters. So eager that he may ignore some of the regulars in favor of the ladies.]

Your tab is on me tonight, beautiful.

[Now that Mamizou has her humanoid form back, going out drinking is less of a hassle. And with an offer like that...] My, my, how generous.

Re: C

[all_ofthethings]

[He bows.]

What can I get for you, milady?

[pompokolin]

[She's totally going to take advantage of this.] I'm in the mood for the best drink you have.

[all_ofthethings]

The one with the most liquor, or the one that tastes the best?

[pompokolin]

Either one. I'm not very particular.

[all_ofthethings]

Long Island Ice Tea it is then!

[He takes a few minutes to mix the drinks and pours some into a tall glass, adds a cute umbrella, and then sets it down in front of her.]

If ya don't like it, just let me know and I'll fix ya somethin' else.

[pompokolin]

Oh, this is an American drink, isn't it? [She takes a sip and nods.] Very nice.

[all_ofthethings]

I dunno, we have something similar back home, but there ain't no America on the world I'm from. Glad ya like it. Just let me know if I can get ya anything else.

C- hardmode

[pinkscarflady]

[Raising an impressed eyebrow over here. Don't do it she can drink soooo much. ]

How very chivalrous. In that case, I do believe I'll have another round.

lol

[all_ofthethings]

Of course. Can I get anything else for you. I do believe the grill is still open if you want to get some food in with all that alcohol. No need for a hang over on such a beauty.

Re: lol

[pinkscarflady]

Hmm, why not? I could do with a small snack.

[Whats the most expensive thing on the menu? 'Cause she's ordering it.]

And a martini, very dry.

Re: lol

[all_ofthethings]

[He nods and adds gin, ice, and the smallest drop of their driest vermouth to a tumbler. A bit of shaking and the mixture, sans ice, is poured into a classic martini glass.]

There ya go. You grilled chicken with roasted veggies and potatoes will be right up.

Re: lol

[pinkscarflady]

Thank you.

[Sips the drink, nods in appreciation.]

So, may I inquire as to the name of such a chivalrous gentleman as yourself?

[all_ofthethings]

The name's Greed, just like the sin.

[pinkscarflady]

Ah, it lends a supreme irony to your generosity.

My name is Roxy, and believe when I say that it is a pleasure to make your acquaintance.

[all_ofthethings]

Well, I can't keep all the booze for myself when there are pretty ladies to serve. Besides, a beautiful smile is worth more booze than this place can hold.

The pleasure is all mine, Roxy.

[pinkscarflady]

No, that would be a tragedy, wouldn't it?

[Her smile widens at the complement.]

But why don't you join me in a round? It's always more pleasant than drinking alone, after all.

[all_ofthethings]

[He pulls up a stool from behind the counter, then mixes up her drink of choice for the both of them. Her food arrives just as he sets down the drinks and settles in his seat.]

Don't mind if I do. So, you been here long?

[pinkscarflady]

Just since November. But I like to think I've adapted well.

[all_ofthethings]

[He nods.]

It does seem like it. Have you had to put up with much craziness?

[pinkscarflady]

Nothing outside the bounds of what seems to be standard operation procedure around here.

[all_ofthethings]

[He chuckles.]

Standard operation procedure, eh? I guess that's a good way to refer to it.

a! bc i'm not late you're imagining things

[wishgrant]

[ And here is Luca probably wreaking havoc in the yard, only to stop and watch. ] Why're you takin' th' sign down?

[all_ofthethings]

Cause the wife wants it down, and she deserves to have her way every once in a while.

[godaime]

[ Now those are some words that Tsunade never expected to hear. She's all right with hearing them. ]

Ah, never thought I'd hear those words before. As many Iced Teas as Long Island is long, please! [ She wished everyday was mother's day. ]

[all_ofthethings]

You got it, beautiful!

[And he'll mix up a whole pitcher worth for her, then pour a nice big cup for her.]

Just give me a nod when you need a refill.

[godaime]

[ Did Mayfield have an identity crisis and decided to become Heaven? ]

I'll be glad to let you know. How're you doing this fine night, Greed? [ Oh boy oh boy tonight is the night of her LIIIIII~IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIFE. ]

[all_ofthethings]

I'm feelin' good, but how are you? Is there anything aside from a drink that I can get for you?

[godaime]

Nah. A drink is fine. I think I got everything else I wanted done. [ She was addressed as doctor for the first time since ever...

being equal with a man in the 1950s, even for a day, #feelsgoodman. ]

[all_ofthethings]

Yeah, what happened?

[godaime]

For the first time since August, I was finally referred to as an equal amongst men!

[ CELEBRATE GOOD TIMES, COME ON! ]

[all_ofthethings]

[He frowns.]

Just an equal? I think you worth more than one of most men here.

[godaime]

Well, I don't want to get too cocky. A person's worth is not limited to gender, but, not having women known as a member of the lesser sex sure is a nice surprise for today.

[all_ofthethings]

[He nods.]

Well, congratulations, then.

[godaime]

I'll accept your warm wishes and accept it with another iced tea, if you will!

[all_ofthethings]

[He laughs.]

Of course, anything for you.

[godaime]

Fantastic. You know, I wish everyday was mother's day, but maybe with less people being programmed to obey all women. [ Maybe. ]

[all_ofthethings]

Oh. People have been programmed to obey women?

[He's generally surprised by this news. Sure he's been a bit more generous to the fairer sex today, but he was just feeling generous, right?]
