[Backdated to this afternoon, because Akai is slow.]

Hey, Brave Vesperia! I got us a job, if anybody wants to help out. Atsuki's asked if we can build a hang-out spot in the southern half of the village, so people don't have to walk all the way to the plaza just to have some fun. I wanna get started with scouting out the area, but I want to know if anybody's interested in helping out.

Same goes for anyone not in the guild- if you're bored and looking for some hard labour to keep you busy, I won't say no to the help!

[Zack is wandering through the village, doing just what he said- scouting out a spot that would work for the new building. What's most noticeable is that a) he's wearing a brilliant pink shirt and b) he's got a pink bow tied in his hair. Yes, it seems that he took Aerith up on her bet to wear pink like the manly man he is. He's got his journal ready to respond to whatever.]

Awesome! I'll head over in a couple hours, then.

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

See you then.

[wingenvy]

[brb heading into the bar a few hours later.]

Hey, Guy?

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

Hey, come on in. [Guy's just cleaning up and getting ready for the later night crowds.]

[wingenvy]

[His kind of party! Zack saunters in and leans on the counter, not sitting down yet. They have to look for the booze, after all.] Anything I can help you with?

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

You can drink this. [Here, your favorite.]

[wingenvy]

[Oh, such a difficult task, he's not sure how he'll ever manage it.] Am I that predictable?

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

No, I'm just that damn good.

[wingenvy]

In that case, I applaud your excellent taste and skill. [Siiiiip.] Never gets old.

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

Why thank you. [And now Guy is searching for another one of those radioactive bottles for ya.]

[wingenvy]

[Chug chug chug, and the glass is done! And Zack is hopping over the bar counter to help him look.] Hey, your bartender ladies know not to touch the stuff, right?

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

Yeah, they usually let me handle the unknowns anyway. Meryl doesn't mix anything she doesn't know anyway. [Now where did he put it...?]

[wingenvy]

That's good. I'd hate for anybody to get hurt just so I can have a bit of fun.

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

Zack, would you drink something when you don't know what it is? Or give it to anybody else?

[wingenvy]

...Well, I might try it myself! But I wouldn't give it to anybody without trying it out.

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

Yes, well, it's probably good that you aren't a bartender in a bar where you can get anything from "E drinks" to bear's blood.

[wingenvy]

I dunno what an 'E drink' is, but neither of those sound very appealing.

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

Something I used to get. [When Blues was still around. ...Guy missed him, sometimes.]

Anyway, it might be in the back. Keep an eye out over here while I look?

[wingenvy]

Sure thing. [Zack leans on the counter lazily, glancing out at the front. Hopefully no one comes in looking for a quick drink, because he can't make any promises on mixture quality.]

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

[Guy doesn't take long anyway; it's right in the front. Funny, he didn't remember it being there earlier when he opened.

He returns with the bottle and brandishes it triumphantly in front of Zack.] Ta-da.

[wingenvy]

[Luceti is magical like that. Zack perks up at the sight of it, climbing back over the counter and offering a charming smile.] My hero!

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

Ah ha ha. I tend to do that. [Save people from their thirst, obviously.] Will you be dining here tonight, sir?

[wingenvy]

Hell yeah. I'll take a double. [There is no shame in getting drunk in the middle of the afternoon, ohoho.]

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

Have a seat then. [Guy fishes a glass from beneath the counter and gets to mixing another one of Zack's favorites, only with the altered alcohol instead.]

[wingenvy]

[Zack plops back down on a stool happily, watching him work.] Man, you have gotta be the happiest bartender I've ever known.
