Seventh Heaven Bar - Main Room

Tifa's Seventh Heaven Bar has a campy feeling to it, primarily constructed of 
dark wood with occasional items for decoration.  Several worn tables grace the 
area near the door, looking beaten up from years of patrons.  The bar is more 
well kept, stocked with a vast amount of alcoholic beverages and components for 
mixed drinks.  The room is just a tad dimly lit, feeling cozy and familiar at 
the same time.  Other areas of interest are the entrance to the kitchen, and a 
porch with some comfy chairs.  All in all, the Seventh Heaven is a nice tribute 
to what someone can put together for a business if they try.  A machine for a 
game similar to pinball sits on the less used side of the room, sporting an 
"Out of Order" sign.  Most of the damage that was obvious only a little while 
ago is now repaired with more permenant fixes, so the bar once again is back to 
it's former self.

>Ryan steps in. "Hey hey!" Quick check: no fighting this time?   >.>   <.<
All Clear Ryan :)
>Lyrae looks up from her post behind the bar, rubbing at her wrist as she smiles 
hesitantly, "Hihi."
>Ryan steps over to the bar, taking a seat
>Vincent looks up to consider Lyrae again. He doesn't really think of himself as 
a person close enough to the woman that he could just outright ask her what 
happened. And neither did she offer any of that information. So, after a small 
mental war with his mind, he settles down again, content not to ask questions 
unless he gets them answered first.  He stands then. Pushing the chair back 
under the table, he turns around and heads for the doorway.
>Lyrae looks towards Vincent, and calls softly, "Good night." To the departing 
individual.
>Foil is just sitting somberly.
>Vincent has left.
>Lyrae looks to Ryan next, "Want anything?"
>Ryan blinks, looking towards the door as Vincent exits. When Lyrae speaks up, 
he turns to face her. "Oh, um, just a beer."
>Foil now glances to where Vincent left..hrmms.. then turns his attention to 
Ryan and Lyrae both.. having neatly dodged Lyrae's question previous.. settling 
back in his chair a bit easier
>Lyrae nods and reaches behind the bar, at least able to move her fingers well 
enough to manuever now. She does so, picking up said beer a bit awkwardly, 
left-handed, and slides it towards Ryan.
>Lyrae glances over at Pharangese, noting the woman's silence, "Are you certain 
there's nothing else you'd like?"
>Foil hrmms..and gets his bag..standing up as he walks to the doorway . o O 
(Alright.. well.. now that I know everything is ok here..)
>Pharangese looks up from her emptied plate, shaking her head slightly. Her 
clear voice states kindly, "No thank you."
>Lyrae waves lightly to Foil as he heads out.
>Foil waves over his shoulder on the way out
>Foil_Riposte has left.
>Tasuki walks into a bar and says, "Ow." No, he doesn't, really. o.o He walks in 
and takes the seat next to the half-digested seat, then looks around for 
service. "Yoooo?"
>Lyrae looks back at Pharangese, speaking a bit hesitantly, "I've seen you here 
a few times.. but never got a chance to talk to you. What's your name?"
>Lyrae blinks, looks to Tasuki, "Yes?"
>Tasuki says, "Sake! As much as you can bring. n.n"
>Pharangese smiles softly as business grows again for the busy waitress. She 
looks towards Tasuki slightly.
>Ryan takes a sip of his beer, watching the crowd out of the corner of his eye
>Lyrae quietly says, "Um. H..hai.." She looks around, then leans over and swings 
up a bottle by the neck awkwardly o O ( One good thing about having a broken 
arm.  I get to be ambidextrous. n.n; ) She sets the sake bottle in front of 
Tasuke, then looks back to Pharangese.
>Butz has arrived.
>Ryan sits at the bar, guzzling a beer. Lyrae is tending.
>JUST when she was about to say something else too - she is nicely distracted 
from having to do that as she next greets the newest patron, "Good evening." 
Lyrae calls to Butz quietly.
>Butz yawns idly, making for a remote table. He nods quietly to Lyrae, "Good 
evening..." and takes his seat. So much for conversation. n.n;
>Pharangese keeps her gentle, faint smile as she just enjoys her drink for now, 
in no apparent rush.
>Lyrae doesn't mind that Butz isn't much of a talker, Really n.n She pauses, 
rubbing at her wrist, "Anything I can get you?"
>Akane_Tendou arrives, with Nabiki following behind. 
>Nabiki dragged along behind Akane.
>Nabiki stops following Akane_Tendou. 
>Butz taps his chin, "Err.." He's had enough wine for one day, but what else do 
they have besides that nausiating ale, that wouldn't make him seem too much 
like a weakling? "Milk." He mentally smacks his forehead. x.x
>Akane wavies to Tasuki. OOCly "Konnichi wa!"
>Ryan drinks at the bar. Hey, gets him out of the house, eh?
>Lyrae looks towards the door, looking a bit nervous. She really isn't used to 
crowds. She smiles nevertheless and waves.
>Akane orders a ginger ale...
>Nabiki waves casually.
>Lyrae sweatdrops at Butz's request, "Hai..oh Hello Nabiki!" She gets off her 
chair and nods to Akane as she meanders towards the kitchen.
>Akane_Tendou has left.
>Nabiki says, "Hi Lyrae..."
>Pharangese just quietly watches the incoming.
>Nabiki turns to see where Akane's gone off to.
>Akane_Tendou has arrived.
>Ryan nods to Nabiki. "Hey, hey, hi again."
>Butz says, "Ah, nevermind, I'll have what she is. Only joking you know, eh-heh 
heh...heh..." -.-;
>Akane arrives with a plate of curry and a can of ginger ale...
>Nabiki waves to Ryan as well. "Hi.. it seems this is the place to come to find 
everyone."
>Akane mutters something to the effect of "ranmanobaka..."
>Lyrae blinks at Akane for a moment. "...." Then frowns slightly o O ( ..She 
work here? o.o )
>Ryan smirks at Nabiki. "Yeah, business has realy gone up now that there aren't 
any frequent bar fights."   ^_^
>Akane does not work here...
>Akane says, "Gomen..."
>There might be bar fights if Akane meets up with Ranma...
>Nabiki tries to keep Akane here for a second to introduce her. "Lyrae, this is 
my sister Akane.  Akane, this is Lyrae-san."
>Lyrae smiles lightly and sets the soda down in front of Butz. No harm done 
after all.
>Lyrae nods politely, raising her left hand in a greeting, "Hello Akane."
>l akane

Akane_Tendou

You see a girl of about 5'4" with short black hair and brown eyes.  She is 
petite, but has a martial artist's build.  There is a spirited look is her eye, 
and you think you hear her muttering something to the effect of 'ranma no 
baka'...but then, you're not sure.
Carrying:
Midgaard City Map

>Akane nods politely. "Hello."
>l nabiki

Nabiki

With a glance you take in an image of the young woman before you.  
She looks to be about 17 or 18 years old, but with an air of 
buisnesslike formality that you wouldn't usually expect from a 
highschool aged girl. Her hair is cut concervatively, just short of 
shoulder length, hanging straight in front and along the sides, 
framing her face nicely. She's of average height, around 5' 6" tall, 
slim with an attractive figure.  
Her clothes are simple yet with a hint of fashion.  Her orange blouse 
is made of silklike material. It fits her loosely, leaving her 
shoulders bare, but covering her arms to her wrists. The bottom edge 
of the blouse hangs loose over a pair of designer blue jeans. 
When she notices you watching her, she gives you an inquistive 
look.

>Tasuki pops open the top of the bottle of sake, nodding a thanks to Lyrae. 
Then, he pulls the bottle to his lip, tilts his head back and chugs! n.n
>Akane says, "..."
>Butz sips the fizzy drink, resisting the urge to smash his head against the 
table a few times. ^_^ Ahh...refreshing, at least.
>Akane asks mischieviously "Do you REALLY hate women, Tasuki?"
>Lyrae looks at Butz, and avoids a giggle. She does however smother a grin.
>Pharangese sips from her cup quietly, reclining back a little in a more relaxed 
posture, and looking around the room.
>Nabiki sits down at a table.
>Ryan . o O ( Well, at least Rachel and Kay and Uriel aren't around. I'm safe 
tonight. )
>Lyrae asks gently, "Anything I can get you Nabiki?"
>Nabiki says, "No thanks.  I'm fine."
>Nabiki looks at her watch.
>Tasuki spits! his sake, turning to Akane. "How the hell did you know my name?!" 
. o O (Demon! Another one! >.<)
>Akane will brb.
>Lyrae nods, "Okay." She glances briefly at Ryan, then towards Pharangese again. 
Wonder if she'll ever get her name? ^_^;
>Nabiki . o O ( I'm going to miss the financial report... )
>Lyrae erks at the sake fountain. -.o;
>Ryan looks like your average bar drunk. Well, a lot better looking then 
average, but you get the idea.
>Akane has to leave, sayonara!
>Akane_Tendou has left.
>Lyrae stifles a giggle.
>Tasuki . o O ( Ha! Demon! Running in fear of the great Tasuki...n.n )
>Butz looks...like your garden variety lad, uncultured in the ways of booze and 
women. And would probably prefer remaining that way. o/~
>Nabiki (OOC) boggles. @_@ "Ok, who's been giving speed to my sister. @_@"
>Lyrae (OOC) grins ^^;
>Ryan (OOC) I did. Sorry. I'll ask next time.   ;_;
>Lyrae (OOC) lol!
>Tasuki wipes his lips, and works on downing his sake once mor, as if nothing 
had ever happened. n.n
>Lyrae quietly says, "(OOC) For shame Ryan ^^"
>Tasuki says, "(OOC) More. o.o"
>Lyrae looks at Tasuki, "A..are you all right?"
>Butz (OOC) says, "She caught a whiff of Tasuki's breath. Same thing." n.n;
>Pharangese (OOC) lol.
>Lyrae (OOC) giggles!
>Tasuki (OOC) >.< and sucks down another cinnamon breath freshener. u.u
>Lyrae (OOC) n.n
>Tasuki looks at Lyrae, then holds a finger up to indicate to wait a moment, 
finishes his drink, and ahs. n.n "Another."
>Lyrae blinks, and nods, leaning over carefully and setting another bottle in 
front of Tasuki.
>Tasuki smiles in thanks, pops the top of the next bottle, and begins the 
routine chugging. n.n
>Ryan . o O ( Wow, that guy's got a stronger liver'n me. )
>Pharangese glances over to Tasuki for a moment. She looks to her drink in 
contemplation, smiling at a memory.
>Lyrae side-glances towards Ryan -.o then looks back at Pharangese briefly o O ( 
Maybe I oughta just wait till I'm off duty 9.9 )
>Nabiki (OOC) has to go, be back in an hour or so. @_@
>Nabiki gets up from her table and waves before heading out.
>Nabiki (OOC) waves.
>Nabiki has left.
>Lyrae stifles another yawn and stretches gingerly.
>Butz idly sips the ginger-ale. n.n; Anti-social? Nhaa.
>Ryan is QUITE social, dammit, and will KILL anyone who says otherwise   o_=;
>Lyrae (OOC) giggles ^_^
>Butz (OOC) says, "We'll help." x.x
>Pharangese finishes her drink and rests her arms in her lap.
>Lyrae waits for a few minutes for someone else to come in or request a drink. 
-.o .. after that silence, she slowly leans forward and redirects her 
conversation back to Pharangese, "..Sorry about that." n.n;
>Pharangese looks up to Lyrae and smiles again faintly. Her voice is quiet, 
forever low. "Oh, do not be concerned. It is good to see such business, is it 
not?" She remembers the former question and replies to it. "I am Pharangese... 
it is good to meet you."
>Tasuki sets this bottle down, grinning a bit stupidly to himself. "More, 
please, sake lady. n.@"
>Tasuki says, "(OOC) Well, it looked like a good face. o.o"
>Ryan (OOC) Eheh...
>Lyrae smiles, her own voice just a tad higher than Pharangese's (but only 
just). "Hai it is." She blinks at Tasuki, and sweatdrops, then says to 
Pharangese, though the comment is for Tasuki as well (so she won't be called 
'sake lady' all night), "I'm Lyrae."
>Lyrae (OOC) won't ask what it was ^_^;
>Lyrae leans back and grabs a third bottle by the neck. o O ( I hope he doesn't 
get completely and utterly drunk and someone's going to have to drag him out by 
the feet or something.. ) She sets the bottle down in front of Tasuki warily.
>Tasuki nods slightly to Lyrae, "I'm Tosski. Pleased ta meetcha Larry. Heh-heh." 
And he begins to drink some more, grinning a bit stupidly behind his bottle.
>Pharangese smiles at the greeting, and watches the interaction between the two.
>Lyrae *blinks* .. o O ( LARRY? ) she levels a LOOK at Ryan. o O ( He had better 
not be smirking. )
>Ryan glances over at Tasuki. Eh, not his liver.
>Ryan is smirking, yes   n.n
>Lyrae drums her fingers against the counter, watching Ryan for a moment or two 
-.o; o O ( Stop smirking darnit! It's not -that- funny n.n; ) She corrects the 
drunken wretch at the bar, "Not Larry, LYrae." o O ( Sheesh.. )
>Lyrae glances towards Pharangese too with a wry grin.
>Ryan holds back a snicker
>Pharangese gives Lyrae a sympathetic smile.
>Lyrae smiles back at Pharangese as she flicks a straw at Ryan. "Quiet you."
>Ryan gets bopped by a straw. Now he doesn't bother to hold back the snickers.
>Lyrae sweatdrops, and giggles for about two seconds, before wincing. She then 
covers her mouth with a hand, and stifles the rest of her giggles.
>Pharangese watches Lyrae and can't keep from smiling more deeply.
>Butz merely sweatdrops over his empty glass. n.n; He's not one to agrivate 
strangers.
>Lyrae resists the urge to stick her tongue out at Ryan. That'd probably just 
make it worse. She dimples slightly with a faint grin, then looks to Butz, 
"Would you like a refill?"
>Butz nods silently. "Yes, please.."
>Tasuki smiles and nods to Lyrae, then sets his sake down. "More, Sake 
Lyrae...n.n"
>Lyrae nods and goes to take the empty glass from Butz. On her way back to the 
bar, she sweatdrops at Tasuki, "A..ano.. h...haven't you had enough? -.o;;"
>Ryan snickers louder, for no real reason. Well, there is a reason. The rhyme!
>Lyrae looks at Ryan out of the corner of her eye. o O ( If my arm wasn't broken 
I'd .. hm. I'd probably braid his hair to the chair. ) she hides a grin. o O ( 
Not that I'd ever get the opportunity, but it's a nice thought. )
>Pharangese slowly rises from her seat, placing some money on the table. Her 
armor makes a soft clacking noise as it shifts into place. She smiles just a 
little to Lyrae, and says quietly, "It was nice to meet you. Be careful, and I 
hope you heal well."
>Tasuki says, "Ehnoof? Ha! I bet ya three bottles I've got all my equal 
liber'um..."
>Lyrae looks at Pharangese and nods, "It was nice to meet you too." She smiles, 
"Have a pleasant night.."
>Butz sweatdrops at Tasuki. Charming, in his little way. n.n;
>Pharangese nods, and moves to exit the bar, her cloak sliding behind her.
>Pharangese (OOC) waves!
>Pharangese has left.
>Lyrae sets Butz's drink in front of him, then turns to Tasuki, -.o; "Er.. I 
wouldn't be too sure about that," she smiles weakly ^_^;;;
>Faris arrives, with Gan following behind. 
>Ryan sits at the bar, a smirk on his face and a beer in his hand
>Faris wanders in the door, heading over towards the bar. She looks around 
casually, trying to see who might be in the 'bandage' club this time around.
>Lyrae sits behind the bar, wondering just how long Ryan's going to be smirking 
like that. she eyes the straw on the counter.
>Lyrae is! =)
>Ryan is only an associate member.
>Gan follows Faris, knowing nothing of this bandage club, just looking for a 
drink or two, perhaps. o.o
>Butz's eyes fix on Faris as she arrives. Mild astonishment, yep. He blinks a 
few times before voicing up, for once actually lacking any semblance of 
timidness. "That you...Sarisa?" If it's really her, that should generate 
a...responce of kinds. ^_^
>Lyrae was about to ask Faris if she wanted a drink, however she gives that a 
pass as Butz strikes up a conversation with the  person instead. n.n;
>Gan blinks, and glances at Butz as he speaks, well... he's gotta be speaking to 
Faris, after all.  . o O ( Sarisa...? )
>Faris kinda stops, skidding to a halt as she hears that. . o O (....Sarisa?) 
She looks around, then spots... him. "BUTZ!" All of a sudden, Faris streaks 
away from Gan's side, heading for him. *leap* *grab* Yep. Apparently, she knows 
him. At least, she better.
>Lyrae blinks at that greeting, then turns her attention back to her work. Or 
lack therof in this case..
>Ryan blinks. Hmm, go figure.
>Gan says, "..."  He's not quite sure what to make of this situation... then, 
shrugs to himself a little, and continues on, occupying a table with a couple 
of extra seats on it.  This isn't any of his business.. nope, sure isn't.
>Lyrae glances over at Ryan curiously. At least he isn't smirking anymore. She 
hopes. Then looks towards Gan, as he is unoccupied at the moment, "Would you 
like anything?"
>Butz's eyes widen, in the brief amount of time he has between Faris and impact. 
He starts to raise his arms...too late. x.x *BAMF* "Gyaaach!" Now -this- makes 
an interesting scene, a chair lying on its back on the ground with someone 
sitting in it, a lady? smothered on top of him. "...Fancy meeting you here." 
@.x;
>Lyrae sweatdrops at the collision. n.n;;
>Sounds like some of Ryan's dates   c.c
>Gan says, "... huh?" He glances at Lyrae, pointedly ignoring collision and all. 
"... sake, please."
>Lyrae (OOC) giggles
>Faris knows how to greet someone she knows, yep. After smothering him in a hug, 
she *ahems* and scrambles off the porr, rather flattened Butz, dusting herself 
off. "You're telling me? I didn't expect to see you here at all! Where in the 
world have you been?"
>They'd be doing more than exchanging formalities. n.n
>Lyrae nods at Gan and gets another bottle of sake, setting it on his table, and 
flexing her left arm. o O ( Ow. )
>Butz throws his bodyweight forward, astonishly able to right the chair from the 
ground...himself in it. "I've been here awhile, but I had a bad experience and 
layed low." n.n;
>Faris nods, swinging herself into the seat across from his, sitting backwards 
and leaning against the chair's back. "Bad experience? Over now, I hope." She 
thinks for a minute, then lowers her voice to mumble at him.
>Faris mumbles, "Not  .....  .....  .....  .....  .....  ..  .....  hope  .." to 
Butz.
>Gan nods his thanks to Lyrae, taking the bottle and swigging from it directly.
>Butz grins, responding in a generic way. ^_^; "Well, the first thing that 
happened...I came into here, ordered a bottle of wine, and some creature 
dropped down from the ceiling, moaning my name, and tried strangling me." e.e
>Ryan glances in Butz's direction    O_o
>Lyrae blinks at that <.<
>Butz says, "...He left the bar with a rather bad case of static cling." n.n;;;
>Faris rubs her upper lip and makes a face. "....sounds like fun." she says, 
dryly. "So far, I've at least had an easier time of things. A few wierd 
people... but nothing like that, at least." She glances around, then leans over 
to 'whisper' conspiratorily, "It was almost getting boring."
>Lyrae nods at Gan and returns to her post.
>Butz snickers at that. n.n; "...Things have been okay, but as you said, a few 
wierd people."
>Lyrae . o O ( This bar is a weirdness magnet. .. heck *I'm* a weirdness magnet. 
)
>Gan continues drinking straight from the bottle.. o_o
>That's what Ryan's been saying for WEEKS, Lyrae
>Faris nods again. "I'm getting used to the sort of thing, at least." She looks 
at the table in front of her. Something missing. No sake. She turns to order 
something.. and suddenly realizes that Gan is here. *eep* Oops. Oh yeah. She 
waves a hand towards him. "Hey Gan. C'mere. And bring a second sake while 
you're at it."
>Quiet you! *throws a straw*
>*bop*  Augh! My eye!
>n.n;
>Gan finishes off his bottle of sake, feeling a slightly stablizing (or 
destabilizing) warmth spread through him.  He peers at Faris.. "... only bought 
one sake." o.o  But he wanders over anyways.
>Faris grunts. Ah well. Can't have _Everything_ perfect. She looks over towards 
Lyrae, leaning slightly over to wave her down.. when she's looking over that 
way.
>Butz is drinking...ginger ale. Obvious sign to Faris that he's had enough wine 
for one day.
>Tasuki says, "(OOC) Ne? What's my sake count at? o.o"
>Lyrae looks towards Faris
>Lyrae quietly says, "(OOC) 3"
>What's his tab at? n.n
>Lyrae smiles faintly to Faris, "Y..yes?"
>Tasuki says, "(OOC) Thank god you're keeping tab. ;p"
>Faris grins at Lyrae. "Can I get a sake over here, please?"
>Ryan drinks, glad to be on the sidelines on a quiet evening, for once
>Gan toys with his empty sake bottle, twirling it around on the table.
>Lyrae nods, "Hai.." She winces slightly as she picks up the bottle and carries 
it over to Faris, setting it on the table.
>Faris takes the bottle, pulling it over to her and tipping it up, taking a 
good-sized swig from it. She then sets the bottle down, smiling at Gan, then at 
Butz. "Butz, this is Gan. Gan, Butz."
>Gan looks up at Butz, and with a fairly neutral expression, offers Butz a hand.
>Lyrae pirouettes and returns to the counter.
>Ryan looks at Lyrae as she walks back to the counter, commenting, "How're you 
doing?"
>Tasuki says, "Hey! Whydja brin' her a sake and y'won't give me my 4th one? 
Tee-hee...n.n" He grins a bit more, flashing his fangs. n.n
>Lyrae smiles a pained smile towards Ryan, but doesn't verbalize it until she's 
sitting, and the ache in her side eases, "Okay, so far..." o O ( As long as I 
don't sleep for longer then three hours. )
>Butz takes the proferred hand, grinning. n.n "Butz Klauser, traveler of 
untraversed realms." (Pronounced 'Bootz'...only close friends get to refer to 
him as it sounds. Or not.)
>Ryan frowns. "Take it easy, at least. You are injured..."
>Lyrae looks at Tasuki, and sweatdrops, "Because you look like you've had more 
than enough..if I gave you a fourth you're liable to keel over, or sustain 
severe liver damage.."
>Lyrae nods at Ryan, "I am I am.." o O ( Mostly. )
>Gan says, "Name's Gan.. just Gan, really.  I'm something of a wanderer, myself."
>Faris grins as she takes another sip, leaning against the back.. er front.. er, 
against what should be the back, but the part that she has the front... of the 
chair.
>Tasuki inhales a bit deeply, trying to control himself. >.< . o O (I'm not as 
think as you drunk I am woman!)
>Lyrae (OOC) giggles
>I am woman, hear me roar. u.u
>Meow.
>Gan asks, "... so... I take it you two know each other?"
>Butz chuckles. "I should hope so, after all we've been through." x.X
>Faris blinks at Gan for a moment. "This is one of my old companions! You know, 
one of the other warriors I told you about." Had she forgotten to mention him 
by name? *ahem* Apparently so... oops.
>Gan scratches the back of his head, "... oh, oh, right. You did mention them.  
Didn't mention any names though."
>Tasuki picks two of the empty bottles up, leaning his head back. He places them 
over his eyes, then leans his head foreward, managing to balance the two 
bottles on his eyes. o.o He turns to Lyrae, and shouts, in a hoarse voice, 
"Respect your elders!"
>Gan (OOC) edges away from Tasuki... quickly. <_<;;;
>Lyrae stares at Tasuki, "..." -.- "Ano ne.. how old do you think I am?"
>Butz stretches, with a yawn...brief hint of something other than the thin frame 
most would expect visible as the tunic cloth brushes against his chest. x.x
>Lyrae . o O ( Weirdo o.o; )
>Gan scratches the back of his head, "... oh, oh, right. You did mention them.  
Didn't mention any names though."
>Tasuki begins to twiddle his fingers a bit, then turns the bottles upside down, 
so that the mouth is balanced on his eyes...not to mention, sake dribbles down 
his cheek. He looks down at his fingers, and counts..."Uh, as old as this?" He 
raises seven fingers, and grins.
>Faris shrugs and looks sheepish, taking a drink out of the sake bottle. 
"Well... that's him." She nods at Butz.
>Gan nods slowly. "I see."
>Ryan . o O ( This's why I only drink a little now and then... )
>Lyrae quietly says, "... .. ... ..." She starts to cross her arms, then stops. 
"You're definitely not getting another bottle." She sweatdrops slightly.
>Faris turns her attention back over to Butz. "So, how did you get to here, 
anyhow?"
>Tasuki licks a bit of sake off his cheek, then fakes a pout, "I thought you 
loved me...u.u"
>Tasuki then slips a little, catching the bottles before they fall. He sets them 
on the table. "Me go nappy now..." And slumps over. z.z
>Tasuki (OOC) has to go. >.<
>Lyrae (OOC) waves
>Faris (OOC) pats.
>Lyrae . o O ( Drunkard o.o; I hope he gets  the hangover to end all hangovers. )
>Lyrae (OOC) n.n
>Tasuki has disconnected.
>Butz shrugs briefly to Faris. "Err...well, actually, you know how over the 
course of our journey we explored our entire world...as well as another, and 
then both combined, right? Well...I got kinda bored and went exploring the 
Cleft." n.n;; He leaves it at that.
>Faris nods at that, grinning some. Well, that tears it, in her mind... she's in 
the Cleft, alright. Just a wierd part of it. "So you found yourself here... 
either Cara or Lenna here as well?"
>Butz says, "Lenna could probaby come up with a better theory than this, but I 
get the feeling the Void isn't just the bridge between -our- worlds." x.x
>Lyrae side-glances towards Ryan for no apparent reason. Just because he's there.
>Ryan is indeed, yup. Even if he's being a lump.
>Butz shakes his head, managing to keep a straight face at the mention of one of 
those names. "...Niether, you're the first familiar face I've seen in quite a 
while."
>Lyrae blinks for a second at the lump o O ( Is he still alive? -.o; )
>Poking always works. Try the butcher knife. ^_^
>Ryan takes a sip. Yup, he's alive. Jes' quiet. Though, he glances at you now 
and then to make sure you aren't overextending yourself.
>Stuff him into a Pokeball. If he wakes up, he's alive.
>Lyrae (OOC) giggles
>Ryan is so unloved   ;_;
>Lyrae (OOC) hugs Ryan ^_^;
>Gan toys with the bottle of sake that he emptied earlier, prudently keeping out 
of Faris and Butz's conversation.
>Lyrae isn't overextending herself -now- at least. No one's asking for anything. 
She leans back behind the bar and kind of drifts in and out of sleepyland. -.o 
-.- ... o.o -.- o.o -.- ...
>Faris still knows Gan is there at the moment. Just that.. well.. this involves 
old friends. "I don't know if I hope they're around or not." She rubs her 
cheek, then shrugs, sitting back. "be nice to see them, but it'd be better if 
they were safe at home."
>Butz (OOC) has his CG Amano-clone glomp Ryan for him. ^_^
>Faris (OOC) AAAGHS!
>Ryan keeps an eye on Lyrae still. Something's up.   (OOC: AUGH! )
>Lyrae (OOC) @.@
>Lyrae dozes off for a second, then jerks awake about fifteen minutes later. o O 
( Can't sleep yet. Wait till you're too tired to dream first. o.o )
>Ryan . o O ( What I wouldn't give to be a telepath. If only Seance were here... 
)
>Lyrae z.o
>Butz nods to Faris, "Precisely. I doubt we'll need the entire group to survive, 
anyway...I don't see any...'tree variety' warlocks around these parts." n.-;
>Faris nods at that. "Probably better they stay back at home, then. We don't 
need to get everyone into trouble again." Won't get into the demons she's been 
hearing about. Nope nope. Not until she's finished drinking.
>Ryan . o O ( Goddamned snake, if I had the chance, I'd wring Esmerelda's evil 
!@(!* neck... )
>Lyrae isn't eavesdropping. She just has really good hearing. She doesn't even 
look like she's awake. Honest!
>Butz ehehs. "Well...it also means there'll be someone around to protect home, 
too." n.n;
>What? And get to have all the fun? "Yeah, that too." Faris nods, taking another 
good-sized swig from the sake container, then looking over at Gan's silence. 
"You know, you can add things in here too..."
>Butz flexes his arm experimentally. "...Not many monsters around, I get the 
feeling I'm getting out of practice." ^^;
>Butz . o O ( Not that it's bad having a little quiet for once. n.n; )
Lyrae rubs her eyes lightly =.=
>Gan grins faintly at Faris. "What exactly would I have to say?"  He stands up, 
scooting his chair back a bit, ".. think I'm gonna go for a walk."
>Ryan . o O ( Now, this is usually about the time the monster killer chainsaw 
zombies bust in and try to kill all of us. )
>Resident Evil...III
>Gan . o O ( It's their day off. Union strike. (OOC) ^_^ )
>Faris blinks at Gan. "You sure? Not going to stick around?" She leans back in 
her chair carefully, letting one foot hook in the back.
>Lyrae peeks an eye open slightly and looks around, then goes back to 
catnapping/eavesdropping slightly.
>Gan looks at Faris unreadably for a moment, "... yeah. I don't wanna intrude on 
anythin'.  I'll probably get home before you do."
>Faris wrinkles her nose, looking up at the clock, then nodding, looking back to 
Gan again. "If you're sure." She sounds vaguely uncertain, but she;'s also not 
moving at the moment. Too much to discuss.
>Butz says, "Intrude? Everything we say has to relate to a place that doesn't 
exist as far as anyone is concerned." ^_^;
>Gan takes his chair and kick-scoots it back to the place it originally came 
from. "Yeah... I'm sure.  Don't worry 'bout me. I can take care of myself..." A 
familiar phrase, to Faris, at least. "Nice meeting you, Butz."
>Butz nods politely to Gan. Yow, he's actually added someone to that circle of 
sociability. "Take care." ^_^
>Gan has left.
>Ryan stretches with a yawn. "... I should probably be doing something 
productive. But that'd be no fun."
>Butz . o O ( At least his idea of productivity isn't a week-long monster bash. 
n.n;; )
>Lyrae stirs and looks towards Ryan, "Productive? Like what?"
>Faris has heard that line too much, yeah. She hehs as Gan leaves, then turns 
back to Butz again, leaning against the back of the chair once more.
>Lyrae . o O ( And don't yawn like that X.x )
>Ryan been there, done that Butz. He blinks at Lyrae, believing her to be 
asleep. And his breath is minty fresh! "I... have no idea, actually."
>Lyrae giggles, then winces again.
>Derek has arrived.
>Lyrae immediately backs into the kitchen.
>Ryan sits lazily at the bar.
>Derek sighs as he walks in, rubbing the back of his head and looking rather 
tired..
>Faris looks over at Derek as he enters, then back to Butz again, letting her 
chin land on the back of the chair she's leaning against, draping an arm. "Have 
you gotten involved in anything herem other than keeping out of trouble?"
>Derek looks over, "Hey, Ryan.. Any news I might've missed?"
>Ryan points at Lyrae.
>Butz speaks up slightly as Lyrae backs out of hearing range briefly. "...Might 
not be wise to flaunt our skills around here...magic is widespread enough here, 
but don't use things like Mahouken spells. It'd be nice to take a vacation for 
once, and it actually might have a benefit of surprise in the end."
>Cloaked Figure is not in the room n.n
>Ryan points where Lyrae WAS. He doesn't actually LOOK.
>Faris shakes her head, drumming her fingers. "I haven't. Haven't really planned 
to, either." She touches one hip, then the other. "Not like these actually make 
it easy to look impressive with those things."
>Derek blinks and looks over, "What?" >_> "Ryan, there's nothing there but the 
doorway.."
>Ryan blinks himself, glancing over. "Hey!? Where'd Lyrae go...?"
>Butz nods briefly. "...Which is why we can get along with magic, but stay away 
from things such as channeling, and especially elementalism. Or meteor storms 
that occur as freak accidents."
>Lyrae? What Lyrae? There's no Lyrae here compadre.
>Derek's eyes widen, "Lyrae?!? She was here!?!" O_O
>Faris snorts openly at that, swallowing back a good laugh, then rubbing her 
upper lip. She shakes her head. "Most I've done is some healing."
>Derek nearly takes out a table and some chairs as he runs over towards the 
kitchen door, "Lyrae!"
>Ryan pauses   . o O ( ... Whoops. )
>Lyrae's not in there either, though the kitchen window is open.
>And yes, Lyrae's in pain after -that- scramble.
>Ryan . o O ( Idiot idiot IDIOT   >.< )
>Yeah!
>Derek blinks again. His legs suddenly give out from under him, "Why..? Why'd 
she leave like that?"
>Ryan stands up. "... Damn, she's THAT skittish...!?" He glances at Derek, then 
thumbs upstairs, as if asking him to follow.
>Butz grins. "I let myself slip...once, when that 'thing' dropped down and put 
it's hands around my neck. I gave him a rather nasty voltage discharge." n.n;
>Derek doesn't seem to be listening, Ryan, he's still staring at the floor 
hunched over.. u_u
>Ryan walks over to Derek, saying, "Yo. Derek. Talk. Now."
>Derek . o O ( She ran...from me? Why? )
>Faris glances towards Derek, then back to Butz again. Yep... she's all too used 
to this sort of thing.. even if she thouhgt she'd never get like that. "Used a 
minor fire spell once. Other than that, I haven't had any reason to really be 
tossing magics."
>Faris says, "Not that sort, anyhow."
>Derek doesn't look up, but he pushes himself to his feet, "Why? What good's 
talking going to do?"
>Ryan crosses his arms. "... Because it's better then moping around?"
>Butz nods. "Just watch yourself...we might find outselves against something 
around Exdeath's class, although that's laughable to even think of, but stealth 
has its benefits. You, of all four of us, know that best." ^_~
>Faris rubs her neck and grins, then flips her hair out of her eye. It falls 
right back into it, of course. "Well, why not? Not like I think it's neccessary 
to go blabbing every little thing." Like... oh... you know. Her being a gal?
>Butz snickers, getting one of those rare naughty notions. n.n "What, you've got 
your eye on some girl?"
>Derek narrows his eyes. Maybe because it'd help keep him from losing it right 
now. Maybe he's angry, who knows? He looks towards the kitchen once more, then 
turns and walks out the door dejectedly..
>Derek has left.
>Faris's eyes nearly pop out of her head at that. "WHAT?!" she squeaks, 
indignantly. "Butz Klauser! Surely you don't think that _I_..."
>Ryan blinks. "Derek!?"

Tyr Road [300]

The apartment buildings and hotels give way to smaller, less expensive and 
privately owned buildings of like sort.  Then those eventually dwindle to what 
you find on either side of you now.  Yes, various scents of delicious food of a 
wide assortment of styles, flavours, and nationalities entices your olfactorial 
senses..attempting to lure you in for a bite, or five.  Make no mistake, 
however.  It doesn't come as cheap as those fast food places around southern 
Tyr Road..though you'll definately appreciate the higher quality.  At a point 
up ahead, the road and street becomes an unpaved trail, towards the start of 
the steep walls that the mountain atol surrounding Midgaard creates.  A deep 
gorge carved by forces long forgotten and lost to legend is to the west 
here..and a suspension bridge has been erected so that pedestrians might take a 
stroll across it to Sif Way to the east, and marvel at it.

>Ryan looks back and forth. "You see a guy walk past here?"
>Bartholomew . o O ( ARG! O_O I'm gunna beat some sense inta' this kid!!!! I 
don't care WHAT Sigurd says! )
>Gan blinks at Ryan. "Some guy? Uhm. can't say as I did.."
>Ryan pulls his hair, mumbling under his breath. "..."
>Bartholomew shrugs his shoulders, trying for all he's worth to remain 
inconspicious. Kinda hard.
>Gan returns to looking at Bart. "... so whatcha waitin' for?"
>Bartholomew says, "Aint none of your business."
>Gan grins. "Maybe not. You look like you need t' go to the bathroom."
>Ryan curses, and walks back into the bar

Seventh Heaven Bar - Main Room

Tifa's Seventh Heaven Bar has a campy feeling to it, primarily constructed of 
dark wood with occasional items for decoration.  Several worn tables grace the 
area near the door, looking beaten up from years of patrons.  The bar is more 
well kept, stocked with a vast amount of alcoholic beverages and components for 
mixed drinks.  The room is just a tad dimly lit, feeling cozy and familiar at 
the same time.  Other areas of interest are the entrance to the kitchen, and a 
porch with some comfy chairs.  All in all, the Seventh Heaven is a nice tribute 
to what someone can put together for a business if they try.  A machine for a 
game similar to pinball sits on the less used side of the room, sporting an 
"Out of Order" sign.  Most of the damage that was obvious only a little while 
ago is now repaired with more permenant fixes, so the bar once again is back to 
it's former self.

>Ryan . o O ( That idiot )
>Butz yawns into his hand. "Oh, nothing of signifigance."
>Ryan sits back down at the bar, his good mood long since gone    >.<
>Faris raises an eyebrow and mmmhmms? "Really. What do you mean? How is what?"
>Lyrae isn't here. And probably won't be back ^_^;
>Butz snickers. "How is it having a...bleah, you know." Try as you might, you 
can't make him say it. n.n
>Ryan decides to take solace by shamelessly eavesdropping on th other two. "..."
>Faris's face splits in a grin. Oh, she's _trying_ to make him say it, yep. "A 
what? You're not making any sense, Butz." Come on. Come on. Keep a straight 
face. It makes it easier to look serious.
>Butz pfehs. -.-; "...Fine, special other." Successful dodge.
>She shoots, she scores! Kinda. "OH! You mean Gan!" Oh, the innocence in Faris' 
voice. She goes to take another sip... finds her container empty... and puts it 
aside. "It's not that bad. Although he's pretty nervous. Not even sure he knows 
what's going on." Sound like someone we know?
>Butz smacks his forehead. "...."
>Faris snerks a little at that. "I'm sure he'll figure things out eventually. 
Really. Well... if he hasn't, and just isn't wanting to tell me the truth." She 
looks thoughtful for a minute, then shrugs.
>Bart has arrived.
>Lyrae isn't here. Really.
>Butz nods nervously, eager to get her away from the subject. n.n;
>Faris is sitting back-to-front on one of the chairs, arms draped over the back, 
and talking to Butz.
>Bartholomew pushes the door from obstructing his manly path...and strides in, 
taking in the suroundings and people of the room. >.v <.v . o O ( Lesse. 'Round 
here somewhere. )
>Ryan is sitting at the bar, grumbling to himself and trying to overhear the 
other two
>Faris finally lets Butz off with another light laugh, at the definate 
discomfort. "What about that thing, anyway? Ever find out what it was all 
about? The one who was calling your name, I mean."
>Butz shakes his head. "...No. I don't know how 'he' knew, but he did. He didn't 
last long enough for me to find out."
>Faris eehs... "He.. she.. it. Whatever it was. But it was the only one like it?"
>Bartholomew stops his visual search of the room, his gaze resting on Faris' 
back. o O ( Hey..there's that kid from last time. Kid's here can cook. o.v I 
saw it on the news. Young, impressionable kids. He'd make a great ship cook. )
>Ryan doesn't even have a beer anymore. Oh the humanity.
>Butz nods. "...Artificial humanoid. But the only one I've seen."
>Poor soul.
>Faris nods. "Probably a fluke. Maybe something that followed you around, until 
it happened to grab for you here. Either way, so long as it isn't the first of 
more." Oi... just what Faris needs.
>Cammy has arrived.
>Ryan sits at the bar, looking rather annoyed about something. Doesn't vocalize 
it, though.
>Lyrae again, isn't here. She'd really leave, but frankly the player is too lazy 
to.
>Bartholomew stands by the doorway, bringing up a hand to scartch at his chin 
-.v . o O ( Hell. )
>Cammy pops in, looking around quietly.
>Cammy . o O ( Hitori mentioned someone named Kim.  Where can I find her... )
>Butz ehehs, "Well...they're succeptable to Kuromahou Boltra at least, they 
shouldn't be a problem."
>Ryan . o O ( What are they talking about, anyway? )
>Faris nods. "That works well, then. Hopefully, they don't get along well with 
Fire, either. I handle that a little easier."
>Cammy weaves gracefully through the... er... somewhat packed mass of people, 
sleeping and non, to the bar.
>Bartholomew steps to the side so Cammy doesn't smash through him on entering. 
Then gets a closer look. >.v . o O ( wooooooooooow. Nice pair 'o legs. maybe I 
could grab her..and...eh..naw..o.v; The crew wouldn't like it. )
>Ryan glances at Cammy. Well, at least HE has an interesting view now.
>Butz snickers and nods. "Goes well with your personality, I know."
>Faris nods. "Exactly. You can handle the lightning. I'll handle the fire. I 
think we can take whatever we need to, out of commision with that combination."
>Hex teleports into the room.
>Hex has arrived.
>Bartholomew . o O ( Maybe there'll be something easier down the road... )
>Bart has left.
>Cammy feels... -eyes-... on her... and she slowly turns to face Ryan.  Well... 
he might be as good a place to start as any.
>Ryan glances at the arrival, wondering if he should point out that we have a 
door
>Hex has a stinging reply but decides against it.
>Ryan glances at Cammy again. She's much more interesting to look at then the 
monkey. Indeed.
>Faris looks up, over, then nearly falls off her chair, startled. *screek*
>Cammy clears her throat, smiling charmingly at Ryan, leaning close...
>Ryan blinks. Usually it takes a few minutes for women to be all over him    O_o
>Butz reaches over and holds Faris up with his hand. Remarkably easy, to any of 
the observers. He props her back up with the flick of the wrist. n.n
>Hex rolls his eyes. "Takes less for guys."
>Hex has left.
>Cammy (OOC) ?.? at Hex.
>Ryan (OOC) shrugs
>Cammy says, "Say..." Her voice carries a heavy Brit accent, though it's not 
un-understandable, "Y' might know where I could find a lass named Kim?"
>Ryan blinks at Cammy. "I'm... sorry, but she's kinda... run off..."   . o O ( 
Is she one of Esmerelda's minions...? Dammit Ryan, you're getting way too 
paranoid. )
>Lyrae (OOC) makes things easier on her player (and anyone else who enters) and 
skips out. n_n
>Ryan (OOC) See ya

Cammy

The majority of the bright, golden hair this young lady possesses is 
pulled to her back, hair is plaited into two thick, golden braids, which 
reach to almost mid-thigh, tied off with red cording.  A rebellious lock 
springs from her forehead, over her face.  Hers is an oval, elfin face, 
coming to a blunt point at the chin; it holds huge, crystalline-blue 
eyes, a pug nose, and a small, full-lipped mouth; overall a very pretty 
look, marred only by a scar running perpendicular to her jawline, along 
her right cheek.  She can't stand more than perhaps 5'5", and weighs no 
more than 130 lbs.
     A knit sweater, made of a cream-colored yarn, and perhaps two sizes 
too large for her, is draped over her body, covering her from neck to 
almost mid-thigh.  It has the usual intertwining 'braid' pattern running 
in vertical bars, a gold and black lacquer bat pin on the left breast. 
The thick sleeves are pushed up to her elbows, exposing slightly pale, 
slim arms and slender hands, wide, loose silver bracelets gracing her 
right wrist.  The sweater is loose enough that her bosom merely creates 
understated rises in the cloth, hinting at proportionately lush orbs.
     The sweater, as said before, hangs down to just before the middle of 
her thighs; black spandex 'biker' shorts peek just past those, molding to 
shapely, long legs; smooth curves draw the eye downward, past the knee 
and calf to Cammy's small feet, covered by a pair of laceless black 
canvas-and-rubber shoes.
Carrying:

>Lyrae (OOC) wavies ^_^
>Lyrae has left.
>Cammy asks, "... run off, y'say?" She frowns, and deeply. ".. I see. Do y'know 
when she might get back?"
>Ryan shakes his head. "I haven't a clue, actually..." A short pause, then, "Why 
are you looking for her?"
>Cammy erms softly. Why? Oh, no reason really. 9.9 "A... friend of mine 
mentioned her name."
>Ryuji_Yamazaki has arrived.
>Ryan rubs the back of his neck. Something suspicious. "Oh? Who? Might know 'em."
>Faris looks up and over at the door, thoughtfully once more, then nearly falls 
off her chair again as she sees Ryuji. "You have the _nerve_ to come back in 
here?" she all but yelps.
>Cammy says, "I... can't say." . o O ( Hitori wouldn't appreciate me telling 
people she's around, I guess... ) ".. thanks for the info, though."
>Ryan keeps rubbing the back of his neck. "Hmm... okay then."
>Butz turns slowly to face Yamazaki from his seat opposite Faris, then back to 
his companion. Visible sweatdrop. n.n;
>Ryan hears Faris talking, then quickly swings around in his seat to look at 
Ryuji. "Oh, hello again. Didn't expect you to show up again so quickly."
>Yamazaki's thin lips curl up into a cold smirk, he laughs and says in a low 
voice. "Yeah...free world aint it?" He steps forward and heads to the end of 
the room casting a few glances around at everyone present.
>Cammy says, "An' if you could, if y'see her... tell 'er that a Cammy White is 
lookin' for her." Finished with her business with Ryan, she turns away from him 
to regard Ryuji.
>Ryan nods to Cammy. "I'll... see what I can do."
>Butz arches an eyebrow at Faris. "...I take it he's got a kawaii little 
reputation to warrent that reaction, too." n.n;;
>Ryan cracks his knuckles. Hell, he beat him before, and he was wounded then. No 
worries.
>Faris leans forward, making sure her chair's solid. "Oh yeah." she mutters. "A 
_real_ kawaii reputation." Her voice drops to a low whisper as she describes 
what happened.
>Butz raises a palm halfway through the narration. "...I get the idea." -.-;;
>Yamazaki finds an open table and claims it, setting down and keeping a sharp 
glare at anyone looking over towards him.
>Ryan stands up. "While I hate to run off and leave a pretty lady all alone..." 
a wink to Cammy "... the atmosphere has gotten a tad less favorable."
>Faris nods, sitting back and letting the rest taper off, then. She glances at 
the guy, then back to the table, jerking her head towards him and grinning a 
little. "He's the one who took a full Stop..."
>Cammy snorts a little at Ryan's 'compliment', and watches quietly.
>Ryan was quite serious. At least about the first part. He's a pig, and he knows 
it    n.-
>Butz squints at Ryuji, seemingly indifferent to any returned gazes. "...I see."
>Cammy . o O ( Hate t' have a squall in this outfit... )
>Butz squints at Ryuji, seemingly indifferent to any returned gazes. "...I see."
>Cammy (OOC) byewaves to Ryan and pats him on the rump. :D
>Ryan (OOC) beams. "And thus, my evening is complete."
