Caritas; Wednesday [08/19].

Well, Summer slept like crap last night, something she could only attribute to having her extreme-mega-cocktail of trauma stirred up a little on her date yesterday. But not, like, in a bad way, or anything! It was just kind of inevitable in most things she did that involved actually getting to know and connect with other people, so she didn't think much of it. Besides, she felt really good about it overall barring any sudden twists in SP, and now there was going to be a party.

So she was feeling pretty good about things right now as she get things set up and ready for the evening and really hoped these girls didn't let her down. But it involved Eleanor and there were shrimp shots again, so she wasn't too worried about it.

Wednesday Jello Shot Specials!
Mango Shrimp
Sparkly Champagne Hearts with GLITTER!

First One Free to All Wednesday Activity Participants!



Caritas was open!

[[ and the OCD is up! Yeah! We did it! ]]

And that would be a very buzzed Eleanor taking the stage and grabbing the microphone. "Hello everyone. This song goes out to a girl who not only looks lonely but isn't but bought me a drink because it's my birthday. That woman's name is-"

Wait a second. It'll come to her.

"Ssseeeevvv-"

Almost there.

"Severe Garden. There it is. I did it!"

Nope.

"So because she made me a drink with whisky shrimp and glitter-"

The band began to play a tune.

"Not that bullshirt!"

So the band began to play a different tune

"Jesus. What the fork up with that Disney princess bullshirt? C'mon. I'm here to ROCK!" She shouted complete with the 'Fist of Rock' (TM).

So the band finally started to play this song.

"FORK YEAH! C'MON LADIES! THIS IS FOR SEVERE GARDEN!"

Still the wrong name. Regardless, Eleanor began to sing.

I wake up in the morning
And I raise my weary head
I've got an old coat for a pillow
And the earth was last night's bed
I don't know where I'm going
Only God knows where I've been
I'm a devil on the run!
A six gun lover!
A candle in the wind!

When you're brought into this world
They say you're born in sin
Well at least they gave me something
I didn't have to steal or have to win
Well they tell me that I'm wanted
Yeah, I'm a wanted man!
I'm a colt in your stable!
I'm what Cain was to Abel!
Mister catch me if you can!

I'm going out in a blaze of gl-


And as she was about to enter into the chorus, Eleanor jumped and fell off the stage, flat on her face.

"SEVERE GARDEN!"

And she then crawled back to the bar as the band played the rest of the song.

Astrid was here to do her cohostess duty and get on the mic, and with her options seeming to be a sexy rendition of the Star-Spangled Banner and literally the only other song she could think of at that moment, she went with the other song.


Maybe not the most exciting karaoke choice, and definitely the one that went against the whole idea of this getting Astrid's mind off her parental issues, but she...really needed to get to know more music.

And at least it wasn't Leonard Cohen.

Michelle, ma belle
These are words that go together well
My Michelle
Michelle, ma belle
Sont les mots qui vont tres bien ensemble
Tres bien ensemble

I love you, I love you, I love you
That's all I want to say
Until I find a way
I will say the only words I know you'll understand

Michelle, ma belle
Sont les mots qui vont tres bien ensemble
Tres bien ensemble
I need to, I need to, I need to
I need to make you see

Oh, what you mean to me
Until I do I'm hoping you will know what I mean

I love you
I want you, I want you, I want you
I think you know by now
I'll get to you somehow
Until I do I'm telling you so you'll understand

Michelle, ma belle
Sont les mots qui vont tres bien ensemble
Tres bien ensemble
And I will say the only words I know that you'll understand
My Michelle


And then the song ended, and Astrid wasn't sure what to do with herself, so she just bobbed her head as if to thank everyone for not booing or throwing vegetables at her, tucked her hair behind her ears, and hurried off.

She might consider drinking a little more before she decided to do that again.

"SHRIMP!"

If the bar was crowded to avoid mental trauma from last night's dream, Eleanor's battle cry was no doubt heard throughout the establishment.

"Summer, seriously, you're a god darn genius," she said pointing at the drink specials. "I'll take both specials please."

"I... guess I'm not the only one who needed a beer today," Jesse said.

Yes, a generic, non-descript beer to erase Dylan's Hiss-infected face from her mind. If only it really worked that way.

This was definitely the sort of thing Astrid felt she was mostly just there for, even if she'd been instrumental in getting it going. She was more than happy to sort of sit back with a drink (she didn't even know what to get and ended up with a glass of white wine, because that was oddly familiar for her) and sort of let Eleanor take charge on everything, and maybe take notes or something on what normal kids (although, again, Astrid, you were a little off on your perception of normal there) did in situations like this.

Freya had spent the last few years of her life fully entrenched in breaking through her society's glass ceiling on becoming the first girl to join the ranks of their most elite fighting force that had before then consisted only of men. So receiving an email about a so-called Girls Night Out shed a light on a mystifying idea and concept that had been mostly foreign to her.

So of course she wanted to check it out. The fact that it was in the tavern helped, because alcohol, she found, usually did help most situations like this overall.

Especially following a bad night of fresh dreams about Lord Fratley's departure and the deep rift it had left in her soul, and a stark reminder that she was doing very little these days to advance her quest to find him...

"Hey, Freya," Astrid smiled at the other girl with a little bit of a wave. She hadn't really talked to her much, but she had a face that definitely made its way into Astrid's sketchbook enough to be embarrassing. Plus, it was impossible for her to not want to be friends with someone named Freya. "Good to see you."

By the time Sabine showed up, Eleanor was already into her third drink. "Hello person I've probably met before but can't remember her name!" Eleanor said in greeting and LOUD. "You want a shrimp or glitter jello shop! Shop? No. Shot!"

She laughed.

"Seriously though, the shrimp shot is wonderful!"

Don't fall for it Sabine.

"Sabine! You made it!"

Not that Astrid had any doubt that she would come, but that (and a good amount of wine and glitter shots) didn't negate the fact that she was glad to see her.

The nice thing about a roommate used to.you having nightmares was that it probably didn't phase Sabine that Astridnhad clearly had some bad ones again last night.
