Grand Opening!

[trifurcate]

Characters: Bryn Zethir and EVERYONE!
Date: Friday Evening, September 13th
Location: Bryn's Unnamed Bar
Situation: It's time for a grand opening!
Warnings/Rating: None expected but label your own threads if necessary.

After weeks of scrimping and saving, planning, organizing, working every day to get everything just so, Bryn's tavern is finally ready to open. There were times she wasn't sure it was ever going to happen, because what did she know about running a business, having only been a customer all of her adult life? There was still a chance that this would spectacularly flop and she would be broke and back to square one again. But tonight isn't the night to worry about that. One thing Bryn does know how to do is throw a party.

So, the two story has been scrubbed and polished within an inch of its life. The lanterns inside and out are burning with fresh candles. The bar is fully stocked, the kitchen has been bustling all day with food preparations, and for tonight, the stage is occupied by some of Keeliai's finest and liveliest kedan musicians. At one corner corner of the first floor, a table with ten jars can be found. Before each jar is a suggested name for the new tavern, and baskets of smoothly polished pebbles to be used to cast votes. Each attendee is welcome to vote for the name of their choosing, and Bryn will call her tavern by whichever one is the most popular.

All that's missing are her guests, whom she hopes to keep as customers over the coming weeks, months, or however long Bryn's stay in the city is.

... Holiday gave a little smirk and popped an eyebrow. "Shows how often I go to clubs. Maybe this is what nice bars look like."

[cmdreffingshepard]

"Maybe it is," Shepard agreed with a half-shrug. "I'm actually more familiar with clubs. Louder music, easier to get lost in the crowd that way."

[doc_holi]

"I'm sorry to say that I've never experience that sort of thing. Didn't really have time to get out back home. Maybe that'll be different here."

She took a sip of her drink before smiling to Shepard. "You go often?"

[cmdreffingshepard]

"I haven't gotten much shore leave lately," Shepard points out. "Then again, I haven't... exactly been officially with the Alliance for a while, either."

[doc_holi]

"Alliance?" Holiday had always been interested on hearing about other people's homes. They were usually much better than hers. Not always, but usually.

"A branch of the military or something a little more private?"

[cmdreffingshepard]

"Human military," Shepard replied immediately. "I came back two years after I'd been officially declared dead, and I was working with... some people that weren't... politically expedient. I don't blame them for not knowing what to do with me."

[doc_holi]

... Aliens? Machines? This is worrisome.

"... Your home is more different from mine than I originally thought. At least you aren't physically dead."

[cmdreffingshepard]

"Yet," she says with a snort. "Ah, well. I'll do okay here, I guess, as long as there's a good bar and good company." She raises her glass to the other woman with a tiny smile.

[doc_holi]

Holiday smiles and raises her glass, too. "Company is all I need."
