party post } { drinks are on me

[bravebartender]

So the thing about wishing for home and accidentally winding up with your place of employment is that that employment can now transfer to Teleios. Cami's had Rousseau's for about six months now, and she's managed to change it into the place that Sophie and Jane Anne loved to something that's a little more something of Teleios, even if she kept a lot of the New Orleans flair. It's something she couldn't bring herself to take away, that memory of home, even if she's far, far away.

The upper floors have been modified into a small loft for her and Hope, something simple and comfortable that's currently loaded with baby toys because when you're being spoiled by your Aunt Cami, you can never have too many. She still doesn't know why Hope came with her when she was brought into Teleios, but she is going to do everything in her power to keep her safe until Klaus our Hayley get here. It's not much power, given the measly human of it all, but that's why she hires attractive, strapping supernatural gentlemen to do her dirty work for her.

Currently she's behind the bar, with Hope in her playpen that she worked in there, just so she can keep an eye on her. She's more than willing to pour you a drink, listen to your troubles and woes and make sure that you leave her bar with your mind feeling a little lighter. After all, there's nothing more dangerous than a bartender who also happens to be a psychologist. She'll get what you're worried about out of you sooner or later.

"Oh my god." Brett looks at the plate like what is this? Is this Heaven? Have I just found Jesus in a plate of cheesey fries? Is it her birthday??

No, that was yesterday.

Okay, she's cool. She's chill. She looks up at Rafe like he is her own personal savior, but she's cool. "These look... amazing." Which does actually prompt a smile.

[rumpot]

Way to be totally cute without meaning to be, Brett.

Rafe can't help but watch her as she smiles. His elbows are propped on the bar's counter, leaning forward as though he's about to share a secret with her. "The secret is in how much ketchup you put into the cheese sauce."

Just a few squirts, but trust us, it does the trick. He brings his right hand to his lips to kiss it lightly, and tosses his fingers and thumb into the air. "Presto."

[ladyashley]

"You're amazing." She scoops up a bunch of fries and shoves them unceremoniously in her mouth, eyes rolling back in pleasure once she actually tastes them. Yes, they were exactly what she needed. She should have taken Noah up on food earlier, but no she had to be fussy.

[rumpot]

Rafe laughs, ducking his head somewhat bashfully. He isn't always good at taking compliments, but in this case, considering how good those fries are, he'll let it slide. Besides, he's not completely incapable of banter.

"Can I get that in writing?"

[ladyashley]

With a mouthful of fries: "Might as well, Jake'll never believe it otherwise."

Look at this, his sullen, antisocial sister is making friends? Or being friendly, at the very least. Being social, that's the amazing part. Talking to someone that isn't her brother.

[rumpot]

See, and now he wants fries, too. He loves his job, it's way better than what he was originally assigned, but it means he wants to eat/drink constantly, which is a no-no while he's on his shift. "Who's Jake?"

Rafe isn't going to assume, except he's going to quietly assume it's the boyfriend. #patriarchal societies

[ladyashley]

"My brother. We're twins." Shoving some more fries in her mouth, she absently scratches at the hand poking out of her cast, getting grease all over the plaster. Lil' piglet doesn't seem to care, but the cast has obviously seen some wear and tear lately.

[rumpot]

Rafe's noticed the cast, and he's curious about it. He'd say something with regards to it, if Brett hadn't said the magic word. He looks up, and barks a laugh. She won't know what's so funny about it, which is why he elaborates. "... I have a twin sister, too."

[ladyashley]

And that garners an outright grin. "Our dad used to say that the twins would find each other, he'd be pleased it didn't only apply to me and Jake."

She pauses before questioning, "Is she here?"

Is she gay? Is she single? Can we be friends?

[rumpot]

Rafe shakes his head ruefully.

"Nah. I miss her, though." For as much crap as Miri gives him, not having her right by his side is wrong, like he's missing some kind of limb. "I think you'd like her, though. Her name's Mireya."

They're basically the same person.

[ladyashley]

"Oh."

Her whole face falls. That's awful. She would die if she were here without her brother, possibly even literally considering her ability. They weren't co-dependent, per se, they didn't need to be with each other 24/7, but he's half of her soul.

She wouldn't be able to bear it.

"I'm sorry."
