[There's a bit of a radio silence before he starts up, somewhat hesitant but trying to emulate a certain someone's social confidence.]

This can't be that hard, he does it every time.

To all the New Feathers- I'm Asch, and right now I'm helping to run the bar, Good Spirits. The usual bartender is out of commission for a while, but if there's anything you need, I'll do what I can. If there's anyone with... special needs as far as drinks go, chances are it's probably here. Meryl works here too, and she's been in Luceti longer than I have, so you can ask her questions as well.

...And to everyone else as well, I've decided that the bar's going to run a contest. A while ago I mixed a drink at random, but I haven't named it yet. I'm not very good at that sort of thing, so I need someone to name it for me. Come to Good Spirits any time this week and I'll mix it for you, and if you think of a name for it, you can try for the contest. I don't know what the prize will be, but I can figure that out later. [He's clearly awesome at running contests.] The drink is alcohol, though, so I don't want any kids showing up.


[Once again, Asch is at the bar, taking care of business. Look, he's even dressed as a bartender, d'awww. Feel free to drop in or just harass him via the journal.]

Comments

[silversnowfall]

Forgive my oversight. I don't know him as well as the rest of you.

[dissonates]

Hmm. [Well, he can't really debate that point. Probably a good idea to be polite.] ...It's fine. He hides it well.

[silversnowfall]

[get used to dealing with someone who is polite and genuine with it]

I hope bartending in his place hasn't been too much of a problem for you.

[dissonates]

Not really. It's easy enough once you get used to it. [Aside from the social aspect.]

[silversnowfall]

It seems like a lot to remember.

[dissonates]

I have no problems with memorization.

[silversnowfall]

...I'm sorry. I never meant to imply that you did.

[somehow even his not-so-angry face is angry]

[dissonates]

[fff and he's realizing this.]

...It's fine. I just wanted to make that clear.

[silversnowfall]

If I stopped by, what would you recommend?

[dissonates]

I don't know. What do you usually like? Everyone has different tastes.

[silversnowfall]

I'd be willing to try something new.

[dissonates]

What about the drink I mentioned?

[silversnowfall]

That would work.

[dissonates]

Alright. Come whenever you want.

[silversnowfall]

[it will be a while, but not too long. There's decorum to observe about drinking when one is of high political standing. But she arrives with a pleasant smile]

[action]

[dissonates]

[And Asch meets her smile with a... relatively neutral expression and a nod. Well, it could have been worse.]

[action]

[silversnowfall]

[and she will take a seat and wait patiently]

[action]

[dissonates]

[He thinks back briefly to their conversation, then goes about making her drink. Here you go, Nephry, the old whatever-it's-called. Which is quickly becoming the drink of the day.]

[action]

[silversnowfall]

Have you had any name suggestions?

[action]

[dissonates]

A few. I'm not making any decisions yet.

[action]

[silversnowfall]

Well, what's in it?

[action]

[dissonates]

It's a trade secret. [Why do people keep asking him that. 8|]

[action]

[silversnowfall]

That might help inspire a name, is all.

[action]

[dissonates]

....Fruit. [Yes, that's all you're getting.]

[action]

[silversnowfall]

Are you worried that others might try to copy it?
