Celebrating With a Drink (open for company)
Irina wasn't one for red hearts, chocolate or gushy romantic stuff. She was more the find a bar and drink vodka type. Which is exactly what Irina did and finding a bar in New Orleans was as easy as throwing a stone and hitting one. At least in the French Quarter anyway.

Irina grabbed a seat in the main bar of Pat O'Brien's and ordered vodka. Not a hurricane or any other fruity mixed drink. She was a simple girl with simple tastes.

	Nicholas wanders in. He's not much of one for most holidays - mostly, they were times when people got depressed, or got drunk to forget. This one was no different. Not even paying his surroundings much mind, he wanders up to the bar and gets himself a trio of shots of bourbon. If they named the street after it, it had to at least be decent here, right?

	"I am not surprised to see you here," Irina said when she glanced over to see who had sat down next to her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He shrugs. "The booze is decent here, not too much water. Good music too. How's the vodka?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	perenawska 2010-02-15 06:55 am UTC (link)
	"Decent," she replied. She held her glass up in a salute. "Happy stupid holiday." She smirked and then took a drink. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He lifts his own glass in return. "Yeah, happy fucking Valentines." he replies, draining the glass. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"The stupid holidays we have, no?" She finished off her glass and motioned for another one. "What are the others doing, dare I ask?" Irina wasn't used to living with so many people under one room and used every excuse she could to be out of the building. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"They're all fucking stupid." he drains another shot. "Fucking Christmas, fucking New Year, fucking Easter, whatever. Argo was talking to Alisa, I think. Corey was cooking. Lyta still ain't back yet, Eliza's boy showed up to fly her out west. S'about all I know." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You're grumpier than your normal grumpy self. What gives?" She gave the bartender a smile when he put another drink in front of her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	vicious_cycle 2010-02-15 07:24 am UTC (link)
	He shrugs. "Just the holidays. No big deal or anything, I could just do without the lot of them." he responds, draining his third and getting another round. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I don't know. I like this idea of Mardi Gras that they have. Sounds like it will be a big party." She took a drink from her glass, preferring to taste the vodka rather than glup it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	vicious_cycle 2010-02-15 08:17 am UTC (link)
	The bourbon is there for drinking. Taste or not doesn't seem to matter too terribly much. "Ok, mardi gras might not be so bad. That's mostly just an excuse to party though." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	perenawska 2010-02-15 08:22 am UTC (link)
	"Who knows? Maybe even you can manage to have some fun during Mardi Gras," she smirked. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	vicious_cycle 2010-02-15 08:26 am UTC (link)
	He shakes his head amusedly. "Hey, I'm only all hellfire and brimstone half the time. I like a good party as much as the next person. I just don't like the holidays much." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	perenawska 2010-02-15 09:41 am UTC (link)
	"That makes two of us," she said. "I never cared for them either. The kids make it harder to ignore them." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	vicious_cycle 2010-02-15 09:43 am UTC (link)
	He shrugs. "Hey, we can always go back, turn the music up and bang the bed on the walls for a few hours and make them uncomfortable. Bet Corey'd turn all sorts of colors." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	perenawska 2010-02-15 09:51 am UTC (link)
	"Is that an offer?" she asked. It wasn't a bad way to pass this ridiculous holiday. He was right. It would make the kids uncomfortable. She wasn't against that at all. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hey, its a standing offer. You show up naked, I'm game." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"And who says romance is dead?" she teased. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"No white knights here, they don't allow the horses on Bourbon Street. But my bike is right outside." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"One more round and then we can go traumatize the kids," she laughed. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Corey's back at the club kitchens, happy to have made some cream cheese pasteis. It's just not Carnival season without them, after all. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Nick moves through the kitchen with Irina, minus her pants, over one shoulder. He tosses Irina's pants over Corey's shoulder as he goes. "Hey kid. We'll be back down in five or six hours. Make extra, we'll be hungry." he offers casually. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Irina just giggled as Nicholas carried her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sandcastlegod 2010-02-16 01:32 am UTC (link)
	Corey's about to say hello...and then there are pants on his shoulder. A lady's pants. Irina's pants, which are not on her admittedly very nice legs right now. He blinks in stunned silence for a moment. His brain tries to focus on something normal and appropriate. Corey has made beet-related dishes less red than he is when he mutters.

	Nicholas grins at the color shift. "Take care. And don't mind the music or occasional wall shaking scream. That smells great, by the way. Thanks for cooking." he answers, heading out of the kitchen and towards the stairs, just as casually. (Reply to this)(Parent)
