Ram's Head Saloon [Mod-Sanctioned C/CLT, v4]

[Ardchu]

A large, purple huntsman spider skitters into the saloon. He’s got a sort of gas last on, and a mini backpack. He skitters onto the bar, and orders a drink.

A large, purple huntsman spider skitters into the saloon. He’s got a sort of gas last on, and a mini backpack. He skitters onto the bar, and orders a drink.

He served a rather unique drink to the spider, it was somthing that had a vary particular label on it that sported a fang.

The man thanked Vixen and began drinking it. His eyes shot open when he tasted it. "In all my travels... never before have I tasted something quite like this... Though, there was that time on Gormia..." He continued to drink.

"I've been mixing drinks for a long time." He nods "some people drink just to get wasted, some people come in to have a good drink.
It's always good to see someone who can hanle some of the stronger drinks.

“Mmm… good. What is it?” The spider asked, talking through a device only assumed to be a translator.

"The fang is on this to represent its preferred by carnivores. It has hints of blood in it.." he nods "You can see what type on the lable"

“Cool… how’d you know we prey on Indus Island Deer?”

[Foxfound]

Z chuckled lightly, glad to hear Noeanyyn's voice brighten a bit.

"I wouldn't think so, but I don't really know. I think exercising at a high altitude does. How flat is Aaaaaa?"

She paused a moment in faux-thoughtfulness. "Maybe hot chocolate does. Wanna find out? For science, of course." She gave a mischievous look and drank a big few gulps of her hot chocolate.

Noeanyyn glared at the soldiers sitting near them, but otherwise paid them no attention.

"It's hilly. Iaonroúda was on a big hill… not so much where I'm living now." She said quietly. Z's second question brought her attention to her own hot chocolate sitting near, just as the bartender refilled her beer and brought the mug down with a loud clunk on the counter.

"With all due respect…" She dragged the hotter of the two mugs over to Z. "I think you will enjoy it more than me."

"As for this, I think I earned this one today." She took a generous sip of the newly poured alcohol. "Hot chocolate doesn't really work as a painkiller, anyway."

"I guess not. Not physically, anyway." She took a long drink from her mug.

She took a thoughtful look at Noeanyyn and her drink. "I have a question. What does that taste like? I've only had alcohol once and it didn't go so well. Or maybe it went really well. I can't remember. That's kind of the point, right?"

She finished the last of her mug of hot chocolate, perhaps pondering if she should fill it with something else. Surely this could only end well.

"Yeah, I'm just taking a break. Just recently, I got in a huge fight with a fellow. Ended up destroying the Coma Cluster and half the Hercules Cluster. Horrible thing, really. It only ended when my colleagues made the Voidmaker blow up a dark mater cloud. And not just that, but it'll spread to the other dark matter in my universe."

He sighed, downed the rest of his drink, and ordered another one.

Karl's suddenly quirks up at the notion, the man's face familiar, and the remark about the destruction of the voidmaker also another part. Other than Artist, Mary Rothberg, and the Numberites, he hadn't met anyone familiar here, but wait... was that Li Bai? Karl, pint in hand, asks the man.
"So, how'd the void maker go boom?" he asks, sipping out of his pint glass.

“Cool… how’d you know we prey on Indus Island Deer?”

"I've been around for a long time, I tend to know folks who come here for the good stuff. Like that one vampires."

He sighed, downed the rest of his drink, and ordered another one.

"Is that how you got here?" He askedas he made him another drink and cleaning the glass. "Sounds like more action than ive been. Well as of recent me."

“That would explain things. Been a while since I’ve been at home on Indus Island. Breathed in the gas direct from the source. I’ve just been breathing through this mask for a while now. It’s deadly to all non-Indusian life.”

[Quasi-Stellar Star Civilizations]

"Is that how you got here?" He asked as he made him another drink and cleaned the glass. "Sounds like more action than I've been. Well as of recent me."

"Indeed. After I parted ways with my enemy, I went around the civilized universe, warning various worlds of the incoming doom. Heh. One world was in the process of being swallowed up by a black hole. The people on that planet seemed serene. I could've stopped the black hole, but they didn't want to. Kept preaching about how "it was their time." Then they told me about this place, and I decided to stay a while here."

He took a sip of his drink and turned to Karl. "Oh, I know you. You're one of the FWC leaders from the auditorium. Nice to meet you... for the second time.
"About the Voidmaker, I disabled the "Void" portion of it for further use. But, well, it outputted insane amounts of energy. So I put in containment procedures to keep it from exploding. It seems that those "Coalition" guys found it, though. Then Radt Cretz managed to get the containment procedures to fail, causing the incident you've seen..." He took another sip. "That's why I've given up on you mortals. All you seem to want to do is destroy yourselves."

"It's dangerous out there, even in these lands there'slots of places that could end the living. Im just glad I dont have to wear any gear here."

"It's a cycle. Destroying, rebuilding, only to be destroyed again. Sometimesits for betterment, and sometimes it's for the worst.
I feel like you tried, but not everything an be saved."

[Aaaaaa]

"I guess not. Not physically, anyway." She took a long drink from her mug.

She took a thoughtful look at Noeanyyn and her drink. "I have a question. What does that taste like? I've only had alcohol once and it didn't go so well. Or maybe it went really well. I can't remember. That's kind of the point, right?"

She finished the last of her mug of hot chocolate, perhaps pondering if she should fill it with something else. Surely this could only end well.

Noeanyyn's head swung in Z's direction so fast it gave her whiplash. "You what?"

She looked back at her own mug in disbelief. "You've… hm." Taking a long chug of it, she finished off about half before putting it back down. "… I see."

"Well, it tastes like… beer. Bitter, I guess?" She shrugged. "I don't know, beer is gross. I drink it to get drunk, I don't drink it for the taste."

She motioned with her hand towards Z's empty mug. "Try some."

“Be very thankful. It gets annoying after a few days. And I’ve had it on for years.”

"It wouldn't be a horrible time to ask for your help... right? It appears our 'little fabric' is facing an incursion... from something. Our Dwarven Ferrumite IT boys at the Foundry decrypted... This."
Karl gently slides his modular phone over to Li Bai.

A Ferrum ambassador was sitting at his desk when he received a report from the Olympia Galaxy. The dwarf looked shocked. He quickly turned to his FWC computer and send a message to all FWC members nations.

To all members of the FWC,

There is a situation in the Olympia Galaxy, an anomaly was detected in interstellar space by one of our science ships. The anomaly is a crack in space. Recently the anomaly grew in size, a lighting type thing damaged the science ship so it backed away. Now our science ship detected morse code from the anomaly. Our ship translated the morse code, the translation follows.

“ ATTENTION, THIRD DIMENSIONAL CREATURES. SALVATION IS COMING. INFINITY IS COMING. WE WILL GIVE YOU 120 ATOMIC HOURS TO LAY DOWN ARMS BEFORE WE ENTER. THOSE WHO RESIST WILL BE GIVEN AN ETERNITY'S TORMENT CALCULATING PI. WE WILL NOT TRANSMIT AGAIN.”

We request a meeting to be called to discuss further action.

"That's a threat to this fabric, not just us. We're contemplating storing it in a Eternal Fragment, but we have no Idea if the tech on the other side can bypass Eternal Frags"

He puts down his drink. "I may be able to help. But only if you've exhausted all other options. Infinity, hmm? I've heard that around before..."

He thinks for a moment, then says, "Do your best in containing the anomaly. If containment fails, contact me here again." He hands Karl a small disk.

Li Bai then pulls out some bills, hands them to the bartender, then walks out of the Saloon.

[Low bloods]

Vixen leans against
the bar counter as a creature that looks similarto an ink blotch pokes out from underneaththe counter. It reached inside itself and pulled out a small container that was delicately wrapped.

Vixen opened it up to reveal it was a container of sushi.

[Cerespasia]

[Ceres user] walks in the saloon, observing the hectic and lively scene of the saloon before him, noticing familiar faces here and there, people he met long before he stepped into the building. He walks over the bar counter, takes a seat, puts down his empty ALICE canteen on the smooth mahogany counter, and tells the bartender to fill it with water and to also bring him a pint of ice cold choccy milk.

"I guess not. Not physically, anyway." She took a long drink from her mug.

She took a thoughtful look at Noeanyyn and her drink. "I have a question. What does that taste like? I've only had alcohol once and it didn't go so well. Or maybe it went really well. I can't remember. That's kind of the point, right?"

"Well, it tastes like… beer. Bitter, I guess?" She shrugged. "I don't know, beer is gross. I drink it to get drunk, I don't drink it for the taste."

She motioned with her hand towards Z's empty mug. "Try some."

Z ordered "Some of what she's having" next time the bartender came over. He raised an eyebrow, but filled her large mug with the alcoholic drink as requested. Before Noeanyyn could say anything about pacing yourself, assuming she would have, Z had gulped down half the mug. She made a face.

"Okay, not as good as thought. Not quite as bad as you made it sound, though. I do feel a little funny."

A normal person drinking for the first time would probably take a break if half a mug of beer was already affecting them. Z, however, mused "Maybe you need to drink the whole thing to get the full effect." and reached for the mug, beginning to drink again.

Noeanyyn said nothing, opting instead to slowly raise an eyebrow throughout the whole ordeal. As Z drank, she couldn't help but wonder how beer mixed with the aftertaste of hot chocolate tasted. She held in a shudder.

As Z was about to finish off her mug, Noeanyyn glanced at her own. "… Ah, plenary." She yanked the glass off the counter and drank the rest of its contents.

The spider finishes his drink, and skitters up onto the ceiling. He begins to snore a bit, slumping down onto a rafter.

(OOC: Sorry I was away from this for so long. I don't really know how to have alcohol affect Z because I don't really have any experience with that... maybe it'll just make her even more Z-like.)

Z (probably unwisely) finished her entire mug of beer and set it down with a THUNK.

"Huh... yeah, not as bad as you said at all... definitely a different kind of buzz than hot chocolate... if I can say hot chocolate buzzes... oh god, imagine how awful a mug of bees would be... unless it was just honey, but that would be hard to drink."

Z interrupted her own rambling by snapping her gaze over to Noeanyyn. "How many of these have you had? What happens if you have that many? I need to find out," she said, gesturing for the bartender to come back over.

The star of field aka starfield is coming soonish as in September give or take 1 or 2 weeks.

"Ha ha! That game came out years ago where I come from, so I could tell you whether it was great or bombed, but I'm too darn nice... Well, that and my computer can't run it too great. I need to put together something better."

[Likhinia]

A woman enters the saloon, slightly unsure of what to do. She notices the most lively area and walks nearby, wavering uncertainly before taking a lonely seat not too far away.

She doesn’t order, instead simply seems to listen intently to the lively conversation as it progresses, unsure of how to proceed.

Noean's face morphed into an expression resembling either concern or confusion, though Z being in her current state probably wouldn't be able to tell which. Her subsequent blabbering didn't help things. The brunette had her head slumped into her palm, her elbow leaning on the counter. She wasn't really listening to Z, but scanning the other bar goers in some vague hope that they'd tell her to just shut up already and quit while she's ahead. She had a feeling nothing good was going to come from this strange girl chugging too many, but out of anyone, she certainly wasn't going to tell someone to stop drinking.

"Not enough." She answered. "And if you have as much as I usually do, well, life gets a little easier."

"… Helps numb the bullet holes, at least." She added quietly as Z flagged down the bartender.
