Drunken Lily

Anya/Charles [April] - 04/17/2018
It had been an unusally quiet night at the inn, sure some of Charles' regular customers had come and stumbled out but most of them simply said "Hello" ordered then left which for Charles was quite frustrating. He was longing to meet someone new and to listen to their stories and have them try his new brews.
•p-pwease end mwy exwistence• - 04/17/2018
Unusually quiet? That's perfect. Normally Diable would past a place like this, but the quieter tone tonight caught his attention. He hadn't been planning to get drunk, but a drink couldn't hurt. He fixed up his hood over his face before gradually entering, hovering near the entrance to survey the room.
He turned away and headed towards the counter with quiet steps.

Okay, yeah, Finzu was in Appleby like a few hours ago. He’s a fast runner.
Currently, he was surveying his options for shelter, since he was technically homeless and hadn’t had a proper meal in days. He stood in front of the bar for a few moments, hesitating before deciding to try it out. He propped open the door, peeking his head in. Not many customers tonight. He sauntered in, sighing in relief at the warmth inside.

Rogue thrust open the door dramatically, striding in with an air of confidence and a smell of woodsmoke and leather. A wolfish grin to all who laid eyes upon him, and his huge form suddenly was at the bar, leaning into it while his own golden-orange eyes scanned the room.
Anya/Charles [April] - 04/17/2018
He hears the bell ring alerting him to a new customer entering his inn. He quickly runs to behind the counter and watches as a hooded figure comes over to the counter.
Charles barely finishes his thought process before another bell ring and a scrawny boy with freckles and leaves in his hair. He quickly takes a mental note of this one he might have an interesting story or two.
And finally before the other two had sat down the door is thrust open by a decent sized grinning man, who, before Charles could properly process the mans appearance, had appeared in front of him.
He assumed these three were together so he waited for them all to sit down to ask them what they wanted.
"G'day you lot, what can I get ya?" He asks in his normal cheerful tone
•p-pwease end mwy exwistence• - 04/17/2018
The most reaction Diable gave to the door opening was a quick blink. He decided it was best to not even look over and acknowledge the new arrival. He tried to keep his posture a little hunched to shut out everyone else. He hadn't been here before, so he took a wild guess on what might be available. "... A Salty Bitters?"
Anya/Charles [April] - 04/17/2018
"Sorry mate I have no clue what you're on about. But if you're after something salty I could add some salt to some of the stuff we have, I've got some great honey stuff that goes well with a little bit of salt." He looked at the man who had requested the drink, he looked about 16 or 17 which could be a problem. "Now before I get ya anything thing to drink how old are ya? I'm not gonna be responsible for you messing up your head with my grog."

He frowned at Charles before sighing a little. He wasn't very surprised by that, though. "Alright, fine. Worse thing you got, then." Diable tugged at his cloak a little. "40. Werewolf aging is slow..."
Anya/Charles [April] - 04/18/2018
Charles looked at the man in disbelief, this kid was somehow older than him he set his mind back on track " Uhh how bout I just mix all my brews together and see what happens?" Charles always prided himself on the quality of his alcohol and didn't know if he had something that could be considered the worst. @•p-pwease end mwy exwistence•
elliot - 04/18/2018
After observing a bit and soaking up the warmth, Finzu shuffled over to the bar, pushing a strand of hair out of his eyes. He took a seat and glanced over at Diable, chuckling a bit at the conversation he heard. He rested his head down on the counter, sighing heavily and mumbling something incoherent.
•p-pwease end mwy exwistence• - 04/18/2018
Diable heard a laugh and ExCuSe Me- he shot a glare at the stranger before looking away again. "Sure, go ahead."
Anya/Charles [April] - 04/18/2018
"Okay sir I'll get that to you after I serve these two. I'll be coming back to ask for what you want to eat as well food is cheaper today cause we didn't get many customers. Just ask if you've got any questions about anything, Mr..." he trailed of once he realized he hadn't asked the boy for his name, something he usually does whenever someone interesting came in. He berates himself internally and reminds himself to ask the other two for their names earlier.

He looks over to the man that was chuckling earlier, he looks him up and down and notices his lack of shoes and scrawny body, kid probably needs a place to stay and maybe something to eat. The more he looked at the 3 men the more he realized they weren't a group"And what will it be for you mate? Do ya want something to eat, a man with your frame should always eat before drinking, I have some delicious chook that would be great in a sanga."
@elliot @•p-pwease end mwy exwistence•
elliot - 04/18/2018
Furrowing his eyebrows a bit, Finzu peeked up at the man talking to him. “I don’t have any money.” He said simply, figuring that would be the end of it.
Anya/Charles [April] - 04/18/2018
"Yeah, so? You look like you could do with some food scrawny boy like you needs to eat. You can pay me with a story or something? So what can I get you?"  He asked
@elliot
elliot - 04/18/2018
With that, the man had his attention. Finzu sat up and a lopsided grin formed on his lips. “Anything you can spare! Maybe something sweet?” He flushed a bit and started to brew up a fun story in his head, something involving pirates and violence.
Anya/Charles [April] - 04/18/2018
"I have the perfect thing for you then, we have this amazing honey from my friend Jarrah down at her plantation. It would be amazing on some toast." He thought about making some toast for himself as well.  "Would you like something a little more hearty as well? Also sorry to ask out of the blue but what's your name?"
@elliot
elliot - 04/18/2018
Finzu was a bit shocked at how kind this man was being to him. He had given him no reason to like him, right? “Ah, my name is Finzu. Why are you being so nice to me?” The words came out before he had a chance to stop them, and mentally scolded himself.
@Anya/Charles [April]
Anya/Charles [April] - 04/18/2018
"Ahh Finzu that's a nice name. Look mate it's just what we do at The Drunken Lily, I run this place to meet people, listen to their stories and help them out you look like you could so with some help that's all." he says with a smile. He enjoyed giving people a place to stay, he thought it was simply the right thing to do."So would you like some chook as well? It's pretty nice stuff and it's gonna go to waste if its not eaten soon"
@elliot
•p-pwease end mwy exwistence• - 04/18/2018
Diable kept his eyes focused on other parts of the room, and his ears focused on the conversation.
elliot - 04/18/2018
“Yes! That would be amazing!” Finzu hated how desperate he sounded, but he knew this kind man wouldn’t mind much, considering this is what he does for a living. He ran a hand through his hair, suddenly hyperaware that he had twigs and leaves in it. Why this. He half-mumbled as he started picking them out.

Anya/Charles [April] - 04/19/2018
"Wanna borrow my comb or somethin?" He asked.
He looked back to the other guy whos name he'd forgot to ask. "And before I forget, what's your name mate?"
@elliot @•p-pwease end mwy exwistence•
•p-pwease end mwy exwistence• - 04/19/2018
Diable was silent for a while before realizing the question was directed at him. He straightened up in a flash, a little embarrassed. "Ahm- Diable, it's Diable."
April 20, 2018
Anya/Charles [April] - 04/20/2018
"Nice name Diable." he said. In all honesty he kind of forgot he was supposed to be getting food for these three gentlemen. "Now before I go and get your grub is there anything I can get for the drama man?" he said looking at the man who had come in last.
@lepelael
lepelael - 04/20/2018
Rogue's amber eyes flicked around to the men in the room, almost as if he were sizing them up. He was quiet for a good long while, slit pupils drinking in every detail of the room around him, the smells and sounds seeming to entrance him for a moment. He snapped back to attention, however, when the barkeep turned to him and spoke. A small smile crept through his lips at the nickname, and he tilted his head in amusement. "What, me? Dramatic?" He rested his chin on the back of his hand, giving a small wink. "I'll have whatever you recommend, sweetness."
@Anya/Charles [April]
Anya/Charles [April] - 04/20/2018
Charles had trouble with finding his words, a blush not even his beard could hide fell upon his face. "This fucking hot drama queen making me blush" he thought to himself, every time a cute guy slipped into the bar and began flirting this happened, but this time he was prepared. He took a second to compose himself and tried to some his good ol' Vombatus charm. "For a handsome fella like you, I'd recommend some root based booze with a main meal of something like steak, if you'd like some of that, drama man I should have a couple of them in the back just let me know how you want it cooked." he said in the most seductive voice he could muster. @lepelael(edited)

Oh fuck yes. Rogue's grin spread from ear to ear, pointed teeth gleaming oh so slightly. "By all means," he purred, sending a small wink his way, "I'll take it. Just sear it a bit, I dont want to be apart from you too horribly long, dear." There was a teasing tone to his words, and he batted his lashes slightly once he was done.
@Anya/Charles [April]
Anya/Charles [April] - 04/21/2018
@•p-pwease end mwy exwistence• @elliot
"Okay handsome I'll be back soon." He replied. What was he doing he only met this guy just then and he's flirting. "Charles you have customers to serve" he thought before going to the kitchen to get his patrons' food prepared.
@•p-pwease end mwy exwistence• @lepelael @elliot
•p-pwease end mwy exwistence• - 04/21/2018
Diable's basic reaction to this was get a fcking room but he had the decency to keep to himself. He definitely chose a bad place to sit.
elliot - 04/21/2018
Finzu was very visibly grossed out, but he didn’t say anything. After all, this kind man had just agreed to feed him.

Rogue raised a brow to the visible discomfort of the others in the room, his lips twitching into a very small smile. While he did fancy causing mischief, he would rather not have any lifelong enemies on account of simple flirting. Ah, but how to remedy this... He rubbed his chin a bit, the steel claw on his thumb scratching ever so slightly. "I do apologise if that was too forward of a display," he began, closing his eyes. "I'm not used to having an audience."
@Anya/Charles [April] @•p-pwease end mwy exwistence• @elliot
•p-pwease end mwy exwistence• - 04/22/2018
"By how you slam doors open like that, I doubt it." Diable muttered, not necessarily meant for Rogue to hear, but he didn't care if the other did.
Anya/Charles [April] - 04/22/2018
In the kitchen Charles was having an intense debate with himself over whether to continue flirting that  he didn't really think about what he was doing cooking while cooking the hot man. On one hand the guy was a right fucking looker, on the other hand there where two other fucker out there, one of which obviously needed some assistance and he couldn't be caught up with the hot bloke out there. Hell Charles didn't even know his name, but a guy like that is also bound to have something interesting to talk about. He was so caught up in those thoughts that he had over cooked the steak "Fuck" he exclaimed and had to get another one. Before that though he thought he may as well plate himself some steak and sit down with the men out there.

For Diable he poured a couple of his failed booze experiments into a glass, a disgusting concoction of apple cider, dew berry wine, and  some standard mead that he'd added some fruit juice to.
And for the messy fella he made a chicken sandwhich, poured a glass of wine and grabbed is comb which he used to comb out burnt hair or twigs when he went to collect honey with Jarrah.

Anya/Charles [April] - 04/27/2018
Charles returned with the booze and distrubuted them, then went back to the kitchen and grabbed the plates of food and gave them to their owners before pulling up a chair next to the flirty fella. "Dig in you lot"

Diable perked up a little at being served. Good; the sooner he was drunk, the sooner he wouldn't have to put up with this. He mumbled at awkward "Thanks." to Charles before taking a sip. It definitely wasn't anything like he'd had before, which was all that really mattered; that and the light burn it left in his throat.

Anya/Charles [April] - 05/07/2018
"So Diable where you from?" Charles asked. A guy who wanted the most disgusting drink he had was bound to have an interesting story, that along with his age left Charles perplexed.
@•p-pwease end mwy exwistence•
•p-pwease end mwy exwistence• - 05/07/2018
He stayed silent for a few moments, eying Charles. Even sitting he was a lot taller, which didn't help ease Diable's nerves at all. He decided on being vague and focused back on his drink. "Not far. Not anywhere in Eathouvell, but close enough."

@Anya/Charles [April]
Anya/Charles [April] - 05/07/2018
"It's a nice area around here. Much different from where I'm from. This place is so bloody homely. What was it like growin up in this area?"
@•p-pwease end mwy exwistence•
•p-pwease end mwy exwistence• - 05/07/2018
Diable racked his mind for a good answer. He wrung his hands in his lap absently. "Just about how you said it. Friendly, open place. Beside the barrier thing."
Anya/Charles [April] - 05/07/2018
"I like the barrier. Allows me to be less weary. Less danger means I can serve better you know? Plus it means i can trust most of the cunts around here to be good drinking buddies." He said. He takes swig of his drink.
"Let me know if i can get you anything more, okay?"
@•p-pwease end mwy exwistence•
•p-pwease end mwy exwistence• - 05/07/2018
"Good doesn't always mean fun." He mumbled, mostly to himself. "Good point either way."
He nodded a little at the next part. "Right. But I'm good."
Anya/Charles [April] - 05/07/2018
"Okay mate, sounds like you were a trouble maker back in the day huh? I can see how it could get boring for your type." He said talking with his mouth still full. Even after years of doing this job he forget to close his mouth from time to time. He swallowed and continued talking. "So did you get out on adventures? You look like a traveling man."
@@•p-pwease end mwy exwistence•
•p-pwease end mwy exwistence• - 05/07/2018
"Back in the day? Oh, I still manage to stir some up." Diable glanced in Rogue's direction like we was thinking of making a snide comment before turning away again. He took another drink of his alcohol. "Yeah, whether willing or not."

@Anya/Charles [April]
Anya/Charles [April] - 05/07/2018
"Ooo now you have me intrigued. What kind of trouble does a guy like you get into?" He looked over at the guy who had been flirting with him earlier.  He was still a little flustered but talking to this Diable fella was helping to clear that up.
@lepelael  @•p-pwease end mwy exwistence•
•p-pwease end mwy exwistence• - 05/07/2018
He shrugged a little. "Just get on people's bad sides a lot. I hang out at places that aren't even half as nice as this, so really, I'm just asking for it."

Anya/Charles [April] - 05/14/2018
"Well you've always got a place at this pub, always clean, always good food and always a good drink, if you prefer to drink something that isn't a cocktail of my worst brews" He said chuckling afterwards, that goes for all of you.

Rogue's left hand immediately found Charles's knee when he took his seat next to him, discreetly of course. He tore into his food while keeping an ear on the conversation, his golden eyes flicking to meet Diable's, then Charles's, with an air of challenge and a smoulder respectively. "My, how generous," he purred, tapping his fingers on the leg beside him before withdrawing it to rest his chin on the top of it. "If only all of us could afford to keep our doors so open, I daresay this world would be a much more pleasant place to do business."
•p-pwease end mwy exwistence• - 05/15/2018
"Thanks... but I think I'll stick to this." He nodded to the concoction fizzing in his glass. He glanced over to Rogue and gave some of his classic pessimism. "Pleasant, if you're willing to risk some wolves coming in, too."

Charles blushed as soon as the handsome devil laid his hand on his knee. But decided he must work through that and respond to Diable, after all he had to make sure his patrons know that his inn was safe. "Yeah I guess you're right but the people in Eathouvell are hard working and good folk so I usually have nothing to worry about, most will pay for a good meal and those who can't get the, left overs still delicious food and it's better than it going to waste. My regulars will help me out if some cunt comes in and tries to start a fucking brawl or something." he said. "Also handsome fella,  what's your name, I like to know the names of the people I'm serving."
