[There's a drunken laugh from the pink-haired alien-girl. She sniffles, trying to stop, and a glass cup roughly lands on the wooden bar. Obvious intoxication is made even more obvious when she tries to address you, lovely citizens of Discedo.]

Yeh know... Working here... at she bar... besht job everrr. Shih'nji.. is shooooo nice. He's... he's my beshtest friend! You guys... isht's slow todayyyy... should come by and... and drink with me! It's a paaaahty!

[And more laughs. They trickle off as Anemone pauses.] Oh! Coool... Dis-gay-do... y'work faaast...

[And the bar stool scrapes against the ground. Anemone abandons her communicator for a little; the door opens, and she gasps loudly.]

Shiiiinji! It's a puppet show!

[[ooc: no, Anemone, it's a marionette. Or around three of them. Drunken fighting for Shinji, welcoming bar commentlogs for everyone, otherwise tags are delayed until post-fight. Also for the bar nuts, Kureha offers knife-throwing for anyone who calls her old. 8D]]

... 'Least it seems they can take carea... themselves. [ With slight uncertainty. ] It's a worry offa my mind.

[x-dilettante-x.livejournal.com]

Well that's never been much of a worry, old boy. Not with these two.

[Grin and vague gesture to Shinji and Anemone.]

[elects.livejournal.com]

I'm a worrier, y'know? [ He's all smiles, but he's tense. ]

[x-dilettante-x.livejournal.com]

Mmm, I've noticed that bit about you.

[If he wasn't hiding behind the bar, he'd put his hand on your shoulder.]

Best get used to doing it a lot more, Shinji has this streak in him. Doesn't have the common decency to run away.

[elects.livejournal.com]

I'm flattered, I think? [ He's leaning on the bar, himself, tense and, honestly, ready to duck. ] Yeah, he seems th' type.

[x-dilettante-x.livejournal.com]

Better a worrier then a coward.

[Haha...puns. Love them but yes he agrees with the get ready to duck part.]

There's a few like that around here.

[elects.livejournal.com]

Could be a little of both, though. [ Always self deprecating. ] Can't say that ain't a relief t' hear, y'know?

[x-dilettante-x.livejournal.com]

Mmm, not really. Have to be a bit of a hero to actually care enough to worry 'bout someone.

[bad sora, bad.]

...I suppose not. In, well, some way at least.

[elects.livejournal.com]

[ If it helps, he doesn't mean it. He's just not keen on bragging or standing out - like this, anyway.

He moves and sits down on the floor near Jon. ] Better those types than some kinda mean folk.

[x-dilettante-x.livejournal.com]

[Scoots a bit to give Sora better cover from the sheer force that is Anemone and Shinji.]

I suppose I can agree with that. Though less annoyance may come to mean less heroics needed.

[elects.livejournal.com]

[ He's not really hiding, just sitting down. Draws his knees up a bit and drapes his arms over them, casually. ] Guess we should hope for tha', huh? With apologies t' the heroes.

[x-dilettante-x.livejournal.com]

[Don't break Jon's bubble now, Sora old man.]

Oh, I'll bet there are a few of them who wouldn't mind.

[elects.livejournal.com]

Guess that's right. How's it go on TV? Best heroes are th' types who never wanted t' be?

[x-dilettante-x.livejournal.com]

Works like that on the radio as well.

[You and your modern entertainments.]

I'm nothing of a hero but, I'm fairly sure I agree.

[elects.livejournal.com]

An' comics!

[ He laughs a bit. ] I think it's probably a pretty rare occupation here in th' real world.

[x-dilettante-x.livejournal.com]

Hmm, forgot about those.


Depends on your definition of 'real world'. I thought the only heroes I'd ever meet were from the war.

I was fairly wrong in that.

[elects.livejournal.com]

Th' world that we're talking in righ' now, I guess. The one we're livin' an' breathin' in. In my experience, hero's a matter of perception anyway.

[x-dilettante-x.livejournal.com]

I'm a bit interested in this perception. What makes a hero for you mate?

[elects.livejournal.com]

[ He seems to spend a moment thinking about it, but then grins and waves his hand. ] Guess I dunno, either! Someone real pretty an' cool?

[x-dilettante-x.livejournal.com]

[Jon gives a small laugh at that.]

Sounds rather good to me. Dashing Hero, daring damsel. Very plausible indeed.

[elects.livejournal.com]

Yeah, surrounded by that kinda thing!

[x-dilettante-x.livejournal.com]

I know that feeling, very well.
