Welcome to the Tavern (Promotion)

[Triste]

So, I remember this thread from a different site, and it was super fun there. So I figured why not start it up here?

"Hey there, stranger you're looking mighty parched. Nice of you to stop by. I just opened the tavern not too long ago, do feel free to peruse our selection, I assure you they're the finest in all the known worlds. Certified by Dr. Strange himself. We have peak elixirs like 1000-year-old holy water from the fourth dimension plane of dang-it I can never say this darn name right... the names kinda hard to pronounce honey, apologies, I hope you understand. All the way down to the bottom of the shelf, Natural Light. Come, sit down, have a drink. What'll ya have darling?"

Rules of the Game:

1. Write a maximum of three of your novel or comic's favorite characters into the tavern setting going to purchase a fine beverage. Let's have some inter-novel/comic character dialogue!
2. Have fun with it.
3. Keep things sfw
4. Post links to your creative works at the end of your comment.

Alicia: Anything that will burn a hole in the roof off my mouth.

Kattar: (To Alicia as he wheels up to the counter) Don't you dare. You're the one driving, I don't want to wake up with smashing faces with a tree. She'll have a virgin bloody Mary. (Alicia rolls her eyes) and I'll get a Dark n' Stormy, if it's not too much trouble.

"One virgin bloody mary and a dark and stormy for Mr. Dark and Stormy, comin' right up! Oh, and don't you worry darlin' I'll spice it up right. We'll keep it a secret just between us girls, hmm?"

"So, what brings you folks into town?"

[Leyelle]

Oh, and don't you worry darlin' I'll spice it up right. We'll keep it a secret just between us girls, hmm?"

Alicia: (nods with a subtle smile to the bartender)

"So, what brings you folks into town?"

Kattar: She's sick and tired of curry and was looking for a new date location.

Alicia: I didn't say I was sick of it...

Kattar: Right, cuz you never cared for it in the first place.

Alicia: Curry doesn't have enough of my affections to be able to fall out of favor.

Kattar: (with a charismatic smile toward the bartender) So since my date here is a lush, we decided to come here and suit her tastes. (Alicia smacks his shoulder playfully annoyed.)

"Well, you've got quite the eye for quality if you picked my fine establishment. We've got all the fixins to set your blood a pump'n and your head a thump'n. We've got drinks that'll turn your world sideways, and we've got drinks that'll send your life byways. We've pretty much got a drink for darn near everything if I had to figure. Hell, if you're lookin' to spice that curry up a notch Mr. Stormy we got a drink that might give you an idea or two, maybe turn your lady friend's words from demeanin' to believin'. What do you say, big guy, you interested?"

[Leyelle]

Kattar: (smiling with a shrug) Sure why not, are you up to try it, Lise?

Alicia: Fine, but if I don't like it you have to finish it.

Kattar: I'm not going to drink your drink after you started it.

Alicia: You say as if it's ever bothered you to finish food I've had IN my mouth at any other time.

Kattar: (reddening slightly as he turns to the bartender) we'll try your curry drink ma'am.

[Triste]

"Now there's a fine couple of... well a fine couple. I've got just the thing to get your lips a smackin'. This was delivered from a sector Zh7Q well you get the picture, or barcode, whatever in The District 9 this blasted thing is from. It's spiced up with chili grown in a fiery burning hole, and that's not your typical fir', no ma'am sir that's the blue stuff. Probably one the hottest things in the whole blasted galaxy, and that's sayin' a lot. The darn place has about 10 to 12 suns, depends on what your definition of the word star is. Anyways you get the picture, this baby's hot, it'll plum singe the nose hairs out your nostrils without you even takin' a whiff. Hold tight to your seat you two I'll bring ya somethin' that'll burn a hole right through your rear end let alone the roof of yer mouth."

a pair of teenagers and a child who the bartender seriously doubts is old enough to drink, walk in while avoiding eye contact with the other two patrons

Hugo: hey, we’re not here for booze I swear. We’re just here to hang out.

Kid: he’s lying, and I I’ll take the wine plea-

Hugo: shut up. I’ll order some coke please. The other guy takes that too.

Ethan: actually, if you guys got guaraná, cause if you do I’ll like that a lot mo-

Hugo: shut up.

"Well aren't yall just about as cute as pups in a dog house! Three cokes was it? Well, that's about a staple round these parts. Where I grew up if you weren't drinkin' coke you weren't drinkin'. Drink goes well with just about anything the good lord ever made, sure as shootin'. I'd give you two a whisper of the good stuff, unfortunately, I'd lose my license. Can't have that now, can we? Sorry short stacks. I'll get those drinks right to you. Yall want ice or no ice?"

Enishi: “I highly doubt that this place has any good whiskey.”

Kia: “Give me 3 shots of your best! Don’t care what it is, just bring it!”

Ven: Rolls eyes “You guys need help…… get me something too!”

Ethan: yeah, we do man, tha-

Hugo: we don’t.

Ethan: wha? Why though?

Kid: yeah, the ice is good. Makes my head hurt.

Hugo: ignoring that last part, it’s obviously cause the ice fills more of the cup. Idiots.

Ethan shrugs and looks mildly annoyed, while the child just nods.

[Triste]

"No good whiskey? You here my accent? You might as well just slap my mama instead of slanderin' me in that sorta way. Looky here, three glasses. You see this bottle, you readin' the label? That's there is Old Forester, Kentucky's finest, twice aged 10,000 years in divine oak barrels. You're not findin' this in your local corner store. Talkin bad about a southern girls whiskey, watch your tongue cussin' at me like that."

[Triste]

"Three cokes, no cubes. Orders up. Here you go half pints, call 'em gifts, they're on the house. Don't ever say your elders never gave you nuthin.'"

[rosskesi]

This really made me laugh

[TheBlacKat333]

Ethan is ecstatic at the idea of free things, and so is the kid. They run up to a random table, and start chatting

Hugo: I will give you everything in my wallet if you have anything to keep the kid quiet.

[Triste]

"Well, what I got depends on what's in yer wallet then. What do you have to show little man?"

[Triste]

Glad to be of service

[TheBlacKat333]

Hugo: uh….

It’s exactly 30€, a business card for a cat cafe, and a pocket knife

[Triste]

"Hm, alright, you drive a hard bargain. Looky here, I've got this rock from zero space. Look at a distance, it's pitch black, dark as the night, but bring it up to your kisser, and you can see all the stars in the sky. That'll run ya the full 30 and the business card. I've also got a fidget spinner, that, I can trade for your little cutter."
