After Earth - Episode II - Beyond Colonial Space.

"Just be careful, Gaetanna," says Damon, grabbing a beer and shot of sake as they arrive. He drops the sake in the brew, and then tilts it back, pounding down the drink in no time at all. He smiles and sits the glass down with a thunk. "Now that hit the spot!"

 

[Relique du Madde]

"I'll try not to get shanghaied." She laughed. "Last call. Anyone need me to procure them anything while I'm running about?"

 

[Voda Vosa]

"If you find electronic tools at good prices or components for the ship, order them to the ship. I feel the engines could get a few more points of imput." Comments Cnosos and takes a shot of sake. "Tastes like droid oil" he says, shaking his head.

 

[Shayuri]

"Some kind of fun computer game to play when we're in jump," Mel suggests. "Or a couple of those...little changey robot ship toys they make. For dashboard ornaments."

She grabs a cup of sake and tilts her head back to drink it all in one long swallow...even if she has to pound the bar a bit to do it.

"Gentlemen...we have liftoff."

 

[Blackrat]

The girl brings your drinks, sake and beer for all and a small glass of something completely clear for Cnosos. That's the hardest we have. She says with a wink.

While the others enjoy their rounds, Gaetanna heads to the bathhouse. After a short "exchange of opinions" she has a reservation for "right now". The attendant goes through the etiquette making sure she knows the proper conduit. Leave shoes in the locker, shower first and then go to the bath.

"Here's to swimming with bow-legged women," says Solly and knocks back his sake in one slug without nare a blink. He ponders the little mock-ceramic cup for a moment. "Not bad, " he says, "but I prefer a good single malt myself. That's the entree over with, now...." He picks up his beer, savouring this one instead. Solly leans back in his seat with a satisfied smile, and surveys the rest of the bar surreptitiously.

[sblock=OOC]
More a habitual glance, looking for interesting people to scam, exits out of the place and so forth. Also, Knowledge (current events) and Knowledge (streetwise) both at +3 to see if he's familiar with anything interesting going on at Jap 1.

Damon takes a swig from his second mug of beer and smiles at Solly. "Well, the best single malts were from Earth, and good luck finding one now. Of course, if you do, it is certain to be well aged. I'd be happy to share it with you."

 

[Relique du Madde]

Cnosos inspects the drink a little, smelling it and moving the glass in circles. After that he takes a sip from it. His eyes closed instinctively. "... It's good..." he says with a dry and raspy voice.

 

[Blackrat]

Cnosos smells the drink and that itself is enough to draw tears. You are pretty sure you've cleaned engine parts with stuff that has less alcohol in it. However the taste is quite pleasant if you forget the almost pure alcohol. There is a sugary taste to it. The man who imports it calls it the Crystal Fairy. I don't know, there's some history behind that name. The girl says as she observes Cnosos' reaction to the drink.

An hour later the others are well on the tipsy side and Gaetanna finds herself shopping. After some effort she has found almost everything she was looking for. Now dressed in style fit for the highups of Jap colonies she is looking for some new tools for Cnosos, but can't find anything better than Greed would already have.

There seems to be few other spacers around in the bar but nothing really points out for Solly until some time later in walks two aliens that you don't recognise. Interesting in itself as during the short time in medschool you did go over the basics of most Republic lifeforms. These two are tall and gangly with gleaming purplish skin and faces that look like squids from earth history. They seem to notice your stare and you get a strange sense of annoyonce.

At the same time a heated argument breaks out between two spacers nearby and the annoyance turns to puzzlement in Solly's head, and he is certain that those are not his own feelings. And as soon the feeling is gone.

[sblock=OOC]Well the closest thing to refer with these guys would be basic Mind Flayers. They look pretty much the same. Just slap some scifi-ish robes on them instead of the usual fantasy robes .

Gaetanna manages to buy everything except for the luxury tools.[/sblock]
