Raise a Glass [OPEN]

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!]

Shot number four went down smoother than silk and Gladio regarded his father with warm eyes. Hearing that his dad is genuinely proud of him is ... special. As a man of action over words, his dad would often show that he was proud and that he loved his son (and his daughter, of course, but seldom did he say the words. And though Gladio never needed to hear them to know, having the words spoken to him means a lot more than he can convey.

For their last shot of this round, the younger Shield decides to honor those to whom they pledge their lives. "To the Crown."

He swallows his drink, thinking about the Crown's future and wondering about Altissia. Out of the corner of his eye he spots Ignis, and makes a note to talk to him.

Later though. For now he sets his glass down and gives Clarus a serious look. "Dad, what were you talking about before? At the house - about the Fall."
