Raise a Glass [OPEN]

[lordshield]

Who: The XV Cast and You!
When: June 6th
Where: Curti Center, Jiminy's Juicery (bar)
What: After saving innocents from the Dream Width, some people just need a drink.
Warnings/Notes: Alcohol consumption, possible violence, whatever people do in bars.

Their first foray into the search and rescue business in the Dream Width had been intense, to say the least. Stressful, heartbreaking, exhausting, and enlightening were other words some might use to describe the experience. After a night of rest and a day to somewhat sort things and people out, the next evening brings about a mighty need to head to the local tavern. Some drink to forget, some drink to remember, some drink to relax. There are even representatives of the Bard's Guild providing live music. You can try to make a request, but chances are they don't know your foreign songs.

Maybe you were invited by one of the excitable young men from Lucis, or maybe you came on your own. There's enough room in the bar for quite a few people, so long as they're of age. Sit right at the bar, or pull up chairs around a table, the choice is yours.

[OoC: Make your own toplevel or tag around. Please put content warnings as necessary. Have fun!]

Look at all the fucks he does not give at the raised eyebrow from the cashier. Look at them, Ignis. Oh- there's the last one, floating away into the breeze. He simply smiles and half walks, half slides his feet along with his bro.

And yeah, cheat night. 'Course he'd think of that one.

He smiles as he takes his helping, half-walk, half-sliding his feet along the ground toward where he's being led to. Huh. Nice fountain. he thinks, before taking a seat. Miraculously he's sitting up straight, though one does not simply drink away years of table etiquette in an hour. Even if there's no table and he sways very minutely with the breeze.

He's just gonna nibble on a cheese stick for now. Even though the bacon smells really really good right now.

If Ignis didn't have as much as he did, he'd probably do care a little. But, he too, has zero fucks to give right now. Because bacon. The bacon twist smells good and he doesn't want to waste time while it smells so good.

"Hm?" Ignis looks over, nudging Noct with his shoulder gently. "You are starting with a cheese stick? I thought you wanted the bacon."

You're making your advisor look bad. Get on that bacon twist Noct.

[warpstriking]

Noct had only torn off a tiny piece, because he wanted to see how it was while it was still warm when—

"Huh?" Oh. Right. The bacon. "But it's warm..."

Yet he relents easily and nibbles on the bacon twist instead. Someone's a little weak to a certain older brother figure while drunk.

"Both are warm. They are the best that way," Ignis says, taking a bite of his own food. Six, this feels like a blessing to his stomach that was trying to process all that mixed alcohol from earlier.

And Noct isn't the only one who has a soft spot for the other.

"I bought the cheese sticks in case the twist is not enough."

[warpstriking]

For the moment, Noct's stomach is in agreement with Ignis'. He's not sure if it's the alcohol in his system or not saying this, but it tastes even better than it smelled from a distance. He hums happily, as his mouth is kinda full and something in the back of his head still says not to talk with his mouth full. No idea what, though. Can't place it. The twist is just that good and he has to remind himself not to eat too fast or he'll likely regret it.

He only finishes half of it for the moment before it dawned on him: "Should prolly get the rest to the others 'fore it gets cold..."

But it's so nice out. The struggle is real.

Ignis hums, finishing off his food a bit faster than Noct finishes his. Maybe he was just hungry more, Noct did have some snacks before Ignis joined him. He dusts off his hand and tosses the wrapper in the nearby trash (by some miracle, he doesn't miss it).

"Finish up and we will head back."

The guys should be happy they even remembered to buy something for them in their drunken state. Besides- cold cheese sticks are still goddamn good.
