Having a drink (Open)
Abel sat the bar in Ontoda's and fiddled with a small device. He had been working on this gadget for sometime and wasn't close to being done with it. Ontoda and Yahi kept putting drinks in front of him. He didn't ask what they were, but eventually he would drink them. Azura would know what all the drinks were, but he wasn't going to bother her. He could tell through their link that she was sleeping. She usually did that when she was spending time in their pocket dimension.

Alex sits down next to Abel, snatching a drink, raising it and saying some Kree toast (nobody knew their drinking lingo like a military culture), before downing it. "Thanks man..." He managed to get out before it fought back on the way down.

He let out a grunt and pounded a palm down on the bar, before letting out a relieved sigh as it passed. "Ah... Brood Tentacle Twister. One of Onty's signatures." He shook out the fuzzies. "Tasty enough, but it fights back like paint thinner." He signals the bartender for a replacement for Abe.

He looks to his teammate. "Your old man doing okay since we got him back?" Alex always remembers not to add 'and Azura' to any reference to Abe. He figures the whole time-share must make it hard to get people to recognize you're an individual.

	"He's good," he said. "Dad is Dad." Abel shrugged. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Meh, that's about how I sum up Mom most of the time; and she's only about half as cosmic as your dad." He smirks, nodding to Onty as he leaves him with his private bottle of Xandarian whiskey (okay, so it's Dad's, but let's not split hairs). (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Abel shrugged. "He took off already," Abel said. He and Azura had accepted a long time ago that they're parents weren't like normal parents or touchy feely. The fact that Adam took off not long after being found wasn't a surprise. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Alex nods, and lets the topic slide off. "So how's mechanic stuff going?" He pours himself a glass, and points out one of the drinks. "Pass on that one if you want to remember this conversation." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It doesn't affect me like it does you," he said. "It's going. I have a few ideas I'm working on. I also need to work on our ship." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Thanks again for the work on Ride. Sorry she's so temperamental when anyone but me works on her, but nav-arrays aren't my strong suit." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"No problem," Abel said. "I like to tinker and I like working on ships. Azura usually hogs all the time." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well look at it this way, you're the only one she can't threaten to lop their head off if you don't give her her way." He smirks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Abel blinked and then laughed. "I've never thought of it that way." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	spacepalm 2011-07-05 01:08 am UTC (link)
	Alex chuckles to himself and pats Abe on the back. "So..." A glance around. "If you don't mind my asking, what's your take on the Earthlings?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	only_half_here 2011-07-05 01:23 am UTC (link)
	Abel thought about it for a moment. "They're interesting. They're the first I've met outside of Nova. From their stories I would like to visit Earth one day." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah, Nova Prime and his family are a class act. Eliza seems like a sweetheart. The Eternal's got me a little cautious though. Call me jaded, but I tend to get a little edgy around someone with that much power in one body." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Abel gave him a confused look. "Dude you hang around my father every time he's on the station." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	spacepalm 2011-07-05 01:57 am UTC (link)
	"Yeah, well, that's your dad. Got the whole 'zen' thing going for him, kind of like Mom. This guy... he seems... well, he seems a lot more like us. Young. Lively. I'm not saying I got anything against the guy. I just want to get to know him better before I can make a call." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	only_half_here 2011-07-05 02:02 am UTC (link)
	"He's cool," Abel said. "He reminds me a lot of his mom, Kismet." Abel shrugged. "Knowing the stuff we'll run into, we'll need a heavy like him." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	spacepalm 2011-07-05 02:15 am UTC (link)
	"Don't tell Red or your sister that they're not already the heavy. They're such sensitive souls, y'know." He grins as he takes another drink. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	only_half_here 2011-07-05 02:19 am UTC (link)
	Abel laughed and was really glad Azura was sound asleep. "Tell me about it. Red'll blow up half the station just trying to prove he's the heavy and Azura will take care of the other half." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	spacepalm 2011-07-05 02:26 am UTC (link)
	Alex chuckles and raises his voice an octave, mimicking Red. "It is being only way to prove I am manliest mammal on all of Knowhere! If problem is not being solved with gun, solution is more gun!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	only_half_here 2011-07-05 02:51 am UTC (link)
	Abel laughed. "You have him down. Now you just better hope that he never finds out. You may have a few holes in you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	spacepalm 2011-07-05 03:05 am UTC (link)
	"Meh. I go all salad-colored and cryptic before anything really bad can happen, usually. Just keeps sticking around." Only Alex could talk about cosmic precognitive powers the way the average person might talk about foot fungus. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It's your hide," Abel said and downed another drink. "Don't say I didn't warn you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	spacepalm 2011-07-05 03:27 am UTC (link)
	Alex just gives a lazy smile and extends a finger at Abe, even as he's holding a drink in the same hand. "Watch it, man. You're not as cute as Az to get away with the same level of vitriol. Heh." He downs the drink. He doesn't think of his constitution as being more susceptible to alcohol than others. He just enjoys it sooner. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Abel gave him a look. "You have a thing for my sister," he said, not asked. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
