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.

Cami makes her way out with a refill for her lemonade, placing the cold one down and scooping up the empty glass at the table. She has a feeling there will be a question for her involved, but she doesn't mind answering them.

Though she did wish she didn't have to walk so far.

"You know, this would be much easier if you would just come in and sit at the bar."

"Nothing in the world is worth having or worth doing unless it means effort, pain, difficulty." Casually quotes Teddy Roosevelt as she finishes the line of text and looks up at Cami with a small smile. #nerd.

"I'll come in when I'm twenty-one."

It's not even that the she thinks there is a drinking age here, it's that she's trying to be the same person she was back home -- a person, she believed, who was for the most part a good person -- and part of that was maintaining the kind of behavior she had back home. School, work, trying to better the world for the people around her, writing letters to her senators/Agents, making sure people had a voice, and not giving in to the peer pressure of underage drinking. She knows she won't drink (and that Cami won't serve her), but she doesn't want to give up the appearance of being a good teenager. She's proud of that.

"Fair enough." Cami's been around bars since she was old enough to speak, so she's aware of there being a difference between being in a bar and getting into trouble in a bar, but she knows Daneca well enough by now to know that she's a girl who sticks to her guns. She's not going to try and take that away from her. "If you need me, you know where to find me."

[emouvoir]

"I do actually!" She sits up straighter, reaching out to catch Cami by the hand so she won't duck inside before Daneca can flip to the right page. Which she is doing right now.

"I'm having trouble with this question." She points it out, tapping the question with her ring finger. Compare and contrast ethnomethodology and the Thomas Theorem. She's like compare the what now? "I don't think ethnomethodology was even in the chapter."

[bravebartender]

"Ethnomethodology is the study of how a person relates to their order in the world." She shifts her arm so that the tray folds under her arm and rests against her side. "People are rational actors that use practical reasoning to navigate the world. The Thomas Theorem is more ... philosophical. It's not our intentions that make things real, it's the actions that we make. Kind of like having our actions exist in a vacuum."

Daneca just stares before shaking her head. "This is too hard, maybe I'm not cut out for this."

She has all the idealism and drive and compassion, but the book work is driving her insane and completely stressing her out. She needs to take a break and not go to school full time and work full time and baby sit and volunteer, but the idea of failing at any of those makes Daneca's skin crawl.

[bravebartender]

"Or maybe you're just psyching yourself out." Cami replies, before moving to actually take the seat across from her. She has a feeling that Daneca needs to talk this out more than anything else, and the boys can cover for her behind the bar.

"What's going on?"
