 Pub's back open, if anyone needs anything.

[Generous Friends Filter]
Everyone all right, then? I've invented a few new drinks if anyone feels like sampling.

[private to House]
Right. Well, you've had more than enough time to get settled. And now that you're in need of both work and a new dispensation method for your medicine, it is time we talked.

I would be glad to take you up on that! [And enjoy the non-violent company.]

[Private]

[can_has_vodka]

Lovely, lovely. I shall get my liqueurs and sherbet scoops ready.

[Private]

[championoftime]

Sounds delightful.

[And he's off to see her, because it was hectic.]

[strangehistorian]

I'm alright!

... I may take you up on that. The alcohol might not do much, but I need to do something low-pressure I think.

[can_has_vodka]

Well, you can always try liqueurs over sherbet, it's what I'm making for the Doctor.

[strangehistorian]

A little sweet for me. I'm glad he'll be there, though, perhaps we can all have a chat!

[can_has_vodka]

That would be just lovely. The ideas we could toss around!

[strangehistorian]

Oh, indeed! Have you met the TARDIS? She's never on the network, but she has a lovely mind.

[can_has_vodka]

We have the best not-conversations. Truly we do. I enjoy it very much. Though I think the Doctor wonders if we're conspiring behind his back!

[hungryanhorny]

[She eyes Arkady.] You gonna tell me it was closed?

[Spam?]

[can_has_vodka]

Not closed, but we haven't had an open-to-everyone night in a few weeks, and after all of that....

[Spam?]

[hungryanhorny]

Yeah. I guess.

[surrenders]

What you come up with?

[can_has_vodka]

Peppermint schnapps mocha or hot chocolate, sherbet with fruit liqueurs, and some thing called a Gotham Sunrise that I'm still perfecting.

Better way to remember it than a lot of people are. [ you make it out okay? ]

friends

[can_has_vodka]

Yes. Though a whole lot of us pulled together and did some good there. It was all right. Bloody well tired, though. Worked with Chromie a lot and she bends time. We ended up getting about two weeks of work in in three days.

That must have been nuts.

Must be nuts feeling like you had all this time nobody else did.

[huge_egomd]

It's not a good time for me. [It really isn't. He's out of drugs and no way in hell he's going to ask McCoy for help.]

Maybe later...like never.

[Just because he knows you're right doesn't mean he'll make it easy.]

[can_has_vodka]

Hm. Yes, well, it's your own fault you're so badly off right now, so please excuse me if I'm a bit less sympathetic than usual.

It wasn't a request. You can't be trusted around the dispensary right now, so I'll have to act as your trustee for your pain medication.

[huge_egomd]

[He shakes his head. He doesn't want sympathy. He wants to be left alone, but he doesn't want sympathy. Sympathy's for losers.]

I don't get what the big deal is. It's not like I was selling the pills to other people. I wasn't even using them myself. I just...I need to have an emergency supply.

[can_has_vodka]

Doctor...in an emergency I could kill your pain for a whole day with no drugs.

I don't expect you to just go off your medications. I don't even expect you to stop drinking. But this is a pretty damned big mess. It's going to be a while before I can get you back in where you'd do the most good around here, and proving this won't happen again is part of that.

I'm not even pissed off at you. I'm disappointed, but even a mess this big can be sorted eventually.

I do hate seeing shit like this drag you down, though.

[huge_egomd]

[Playing the disappointment card--smart. It works. He's not going to admit it works but it does.]

Making messes is what I do. It's what I've always done. I don't even plan to make a mess...[most of the time]...but I do. At my age, I don't see that stopping.

[diedinnewyork]

Holy SHIT we have a Bar?

[can_has_vodka]

I usually open up the bar to all after there's been a big event. Otherwise it's Warden's permission.

[After the quarrel with Kay Narvin is very tempted to sample a lot. With extra ginger for Gallifreyan inebriation. But he's still hanging on to his pride and self-control so far and his despondency hasn't quite sunk low enough to let himself get completely sozzled. Not yet.]
