First pint's on me (open)
If she was going to get to know her new teammates, Jenny couldn't think of a better way than to invite them to the local pub for pints and food, maybe a game or two of darts. Socializing at the new headquarters when there were things to be done seemed to be happening on a one-at-a-time basis. They all seemed to know each other and were close. Not easy for an outsider to fit in, and fitting it wouldn't happen if she didn't make the effort.

She posted a note above the coffeemaker where everyone was sure to notice it and went about her day. After work, she went directly to the Red Lion.

Casey was already at the pub socializing and was currently chatting up the bartender exchanging stories about the things they seen working as bartenders. He would have been talking to the hot blonds at the other side of the pub but it was still early and this was supposed to be a team building thing.

When he saw Jenny enter he gave her a wave after putting down his pint.

Jenny entered the pub and looked around to see who had arrived. She smiled when Casey waved and worked her way through to the bar.

She took the stool next to Casey and pulled out her wallet. Her credit card was handed to the bartender. "Run a tab, please. His next is on me, and I'll take whatever's on tap."

That taken care of, she turned to Casey. "Glad you could make it."

“It was no trouble at all, we probably should have done this type of thing a while ago,” Casey said smiling, “and the bartender here is a really nice guy too.”

Then thinking for a moment asked, “So how was your day?”

Quinn got the note and there was no way he was going to pass up time to do some drinking.

He had spent the day setting wards around the headquarters and in his room. It was long and tiring work and he definitely worked up a thirst.

He smiled when he saw Jenny and Casey. He grabbed a pint from the bar and sat down at the table with them. "Jenny. Irish."

Joe had put in a hard day's work too, though not quite in the same wa that Quinn had. For every bit of magic that went into their headquarters, there was a bit of technology or just old fashioned real world stuff that had to go in too.

He set down next to the others after getting his drink. "Hey gang."

"It was a quiet day at the bookshop," Jenny answered Casey.

She signaled to the bartender to put the arrivals' drinks on her tab and smiled at them. "Hi. Glad to see you tore yourself away from your duties."

Leech came in a bit late. It had been a long day helping Art make himself clear to people he was dealing with in his work.

"Hey, everyone."

"Leech gets an extra round on me. I owe him for the doctoring." Jenny smiled brightly at him as he joined the group. "Artie too busy for a drink?"

“That nice to hear,” Casey said to Jenny he had been working through government bureaucracy trying to figure out what type of visa he needed. Fecking bureaucracy, he still was no closer to figuring it out.

"Hey," he said as everyone started gathering around.

Art's busy revising all his blueprints because the population figures they gave him before are all wrong. And somebody decided he had to tell Art this over the telephone." A confused cant of his head for a moment. "Who hires a mute telepathic architect and then tries to work out problems over the telephone?" Leech is actually a little annoyed for once, but shrugs it off.
"Aw. you don't have to, Jenny, but I sure appreciate it, thanks." And a pint will be had.

"Dips," Jenny agreed as she glanced at the door. Not that she minded hanging out with four nice (and easy on the eyes) guys to herself, but she was hoping Sophie, Tamara and Dmitri would make it. There was still time.

She turned her attention back to the guys. "What did you guys do today?"

"I set up wards and protection spells around the building," Quinn said as he sipped his Guinness. "Now it'll be harder for demon and magical attacks."

"Wiring, mostly," Joe said. "And fixing a few things that hadn't been looked at in a while."

"You can never have too many things that prevent demons," Leech declares between sips of beer. "Or household accidents, for that matter."

The thought of more demons was enough for a faint shudder and a gesture to the bartender another round.

"Is the team going to be sponsored by the government?"

"Either way, those who don't have visas in order need to get them that way. The UK's been known to arrest supertypes for illegal immigration before."

"Good work, man," Joe told Casey.

He shook his head. "I still can't believe I'm doing this. Super-heroing was not in my long-term plans."

“It’s been a real pain in the arse,” Casey said, “and I still don’t think I’ve gotten very far. Which is why I was already drinking when everyone else got here.”

“Super-heroing wasn’t really in my long term plans either. Though I can’t say I’m all to surprised this ended up happening.”

Joe shrugged. "I'm more powerful than pretty much any person has any right to be," he said. "Guess it's time I owed up to being more responsible about that."

Jenny smiled. "I'd hate to go head-to-head with you, Joe. I'm afraid something would get demolished and the landlords might have some harsh words for us."

She held her glass up as well. Who couldn't drink to that?

He laughed at that. "If that happens, I am not cleaning it up."

He raised his own glass. "Here's to those who wish us well... and those who don't can go to hell!"
