Prepare for the #LodanRespawn2024 Existing characters may choose to be displace from/have memories of different timelines, thereby allowing returning members the option to retcon their whole character. These changes are the result of the "Unnatural Fog" plot device that is running between now and the Respawn. The plot is simple: no matter where your character is, that place is shrouded in a thick fog that suspends time, but not thoughts or memories, so even if they're repeating the same day over and over again, they continue to remember, so each time feels like a new day. For those retconning OCs; this is where new versions of themselves have the opportunity to replace the old versions. Official lore and tree updates will be announced asap

Elaine quickened her pace to match the other two. This soon had her slightly out of breath. Curse her shortness. She watched the sky as she neared the pub.

Well, that fixed the weather problem. As they neared the pub Lasair took a few quick strides ahead of the girls and grabbed the door, holding it open for them. Just as Elaine dashed inside the first few drops of rain began to descend. They had made it just in time. He followed them inside to find the table they picked out.
Clairee hoped none of her brothers were in here. It sucked being the youngest of 12 or 13 (hell even she had trouble remembering some days). When she felt safely unrelated to the rest of the pub-ulation, she grabbed a seat and motioned for the others to join her.

Elaine darted and quickly slid into a seat across from Clair. The pub's loud music and equally loud patrons rang in her ears. A lively, respectable group and they had just joined. Grinning in spite of herself Elaine perked up to glance around then settled to see where the conversation went next.

Lasair sat down with the girls, grinning as they transitioned into the new atmosphere. “So what will you two be having?” he asked, thinking through the main drinks he enjoyed in his head.
Oh gawd... she didn't know any drink names. Her face drained of color. She was so very uncool. Her eyes darted to Elaine to see if she would answer first. Maybe Clair could just order the same thing? She didn't want Lasair to realize so quickly how little experience she had with pubs, or drinks, or anything outside of farming period.

Elaine returned the helpless look to Clair. She didn't drink. What should she do? Get a hint from the other girl? From the sheer terror in Clair's expression, she didn't drink either. Elaine tried to hold her gaze without laughing. The fact that both of them had absolutely no experience in the drinking business was amusing to her. She put a hand over her mouth casually for extra measure. Trying frantically to come up with something that wouldn't sound stupid.

It took him all of ten seconds to realize the other two girls weren’t drinkers. Which isn’t a bad thing. Alcohol can get the better of some people. He chuckled as he glanced at their faces. “No worries ladies. We don’t have to drink tonight.” Lasair smiled again and hoped that would relieve some of the tension. They were here to have fun, not to make them nervous.
"That obvious huh?" She gave a nervous chuckle. Just then the server showed up, wiping her rag over their table in a blind motion and handing out three menus with the other hand.

Elaine circled her finger on the table tracing a knot feeling slightly embarrassed. But as the waitress appeared she took a menu with a nod of thanks. This she could work with. She hadn't ever fancied to try a drink. No personal rules against it or anything she just didn't. But the menu promised delicious food. She skimmed it before settling on a deli sandwich. "I guess we aren't as sneaky as we like about or habits are we?" She said, eyes shining with amusement.

“Nah don’t worry about it. I have a tendency to assume anyone who walks into a bar likes to drink. Which isn’t true. But don’t you two beautiful ladies worry about it.” Lasair took the menu and set it down right away. He wasn’t interested in food tonight, however he did plan on paying the bill for the table. But until then, he was happy just to sit back and enjoy the atmosphere.

Clairee smiled at Elaine, she couldn't be more right. The menu made its way into her hand and she glanced it over, curious what to pick and if it would be bitter or sweet. Then Lasair removed it from her hands and kicked back nonchalantly. "Oh, I um, actually I kind of wanted to give it a try. First time for everything, right?" She glanced between the two of them.

Clair was going to try something? Elaine shrugged. "I suppose so." She glanced around. The pub had a good atmosphere, she liked it. She briefly wondered if she should try something as well. Well on the second thought she'd rather not. She just smiled at the two and relaxed into her seat.
Post by Lasair Landevier Lupen on Jun 12, 2015 22:25:16 GMT
Grinning as he heard Clair’s words, Lasair couldn’t help but step in then. “May I order for you then? Just tell me what you have a taste for and I’ll take care of it.” Turning to Elaine, he hoped she might make the same decision. Alcohol could be fun if you had the right people with you. “What about you? May I order something for you too?” he asked with the same smile.
Post by Clairee Donya on Jun 12, 2015 22:32:12 GMT
Well that was a relief, she smiled and it showed in the way the tension left her shoulders. "Something fresh and fruity, nothing bitter, or sour, if that-s ok," She too turned and waited to hear Elaine's answer.
