Hey, anyone who's not obsessing over bread want to go for a drink, or something? I'd say leave it for a curse free night, but I'm feeling lucky, and who am I to deprive the world of this?

[He leans back from the camera, just to give everyone the full benefit of his lanky frame. A few seconds later, he holds up his finger and ducks away to go and scrounge under his bed. He emerges with this, courtesy of one very anonymous Weasley.]

Oh, yeah. And before I forget. Whoever left this? Funny. Your wank puppet's getting dumped if you don't claim it back soon, though. So unless you don't mind sharing with rats? I'd get on that.

Just don't go expecting those tissues back. There's probably still a few lying around somewhere, but I think they might be used.

What, no, you invited me out. That means you buy, where I'm from.

-- Though I guess we can just open a tab. Do people use credit cards here? Or is this whole city cash only? [Because she'll have to steal one for said tab.]

[ ackshun ]

[designedtoparty]

Not where I'm from. [Lies.] Besides, I don't have any money.

A tab could work, though. [Because the money section on the FAQ doesn't say anything about not having cards and I like convenience.]

[ ackshun ]

[cons]

Whatever, I'm not above skipping out the check at the end of the night, so, let's just go nuts at this bar tonight and never go back again. Deal?

[Yeah, I was just looking there too, hm. Usually she just opens tabs cause they're easy to ditch, so. Either way, money isn't really an issue.]

Where are you from, anyway? I was gonna just call you Dublin, but I guess that'd be annoying if you're not actually from there.

[ ackshun ]

[designedtoparty]

Deal. [He's more than happy to go along with this. He'll have to go drinking with her more often.]

Laois. Which isn't anywhere near Dublin, but at least that wouldn't make it sound like you're on about walking your dog. How about we just go with Nathan?

[ ackshun ]

[cons]

Nathan. Sure. [Real names, huh. It's probably bad that knowing his real name feels way too personal already. Whatever, the cities-as-names thing isn't that old of a habit, maybe she could break it. Maybe.]

So, Nathan. What'd you do before you ended up in the city? Besides not die permanently.

[Hey, he'd probably respond to pretty much anything at the end of the day.]

I dressed up as Santa and handed out flyers. Needless to say, things are much more exciting here.

[ ackshun ]

[cons]

You could be skydiving or base-jumping or driving cars at a million miles an hour, or a bunch of other reckless shit, and you decide to dress up like Santa?

[ ackshun ]

[designedtoparty]

I didn't decide to. All that other shit costs money. Do you have any idea how hard to find a job it is when you have a criminal record?

[ ackshun ]

[cons]

[That makes her laugh.] Yeah, actually. Well, sort of. I've never gotten caught. But it's hard holding down a job when you're busy dodging around trying not to get caught, so. [She shrugs] Although now I'm not so sure I wanna try ditching out of this bar with you, not if you have a habit of getting caught.

[ ackshun ]

[designedtoparty]

It happened once. I commit crime all the time, and it's the only time anyone's ever found out about it. [Or at least convicted him. He's not exactly quiet about it.]

[ ackshun ]

[cons]

Uh huh. So you've never gotten caught here? [...hm] Are there even cops here? I guess there'd have to be, right? Or people that think they're cops and just run around trying to ruin everyone's fun.

[ ackshun ]

[designedtoparty]

Well, maybe a few times. But I've never been convicted of anything. The cops here are useless. I think I've only been arrested here the once.
