[rng says he just slammed back some absinthe. you go, molly.]

I didn't realize people were so messy. Even I clean up after myself, and that's after I've drunk myself into a stupor!

You'd think if I can do that drunk, the others can do it sober.

[headmt]

[ABSINTHE

he wheeze coughs]

My gods! What is that? Kicks like a horse. More please.

[Then holds out the glass.]

At the very least, when I pass out in my own filth, I tip the barmaid extra in the morning.

[shiftingwinds]

[sqx looks at the label before pouring some more for him.]

Something called absinthe. It's strong, so I like it.

[...she pours more for herself too!]

Unfortunately, it doesn't seem like anyone is getting tipped here. What a shame.

[headmt]

If you play that harp for me, I’ll find something to tip you with! I believe I have some trade worthy items on my person.

[Does he? Does he.]

[shiftingwinds]

[does he?

well, only one way to find out. sqx shrugs and scoots a little closer to the harp to play it.]

Sure, but I'm warning you, it doesn't sound right.

[time to play the harp! it sounds out of tune, alas. the song would probably sound pretty if it was working properly.]

[headmt]

[Sitting, politely, rapt!!!! And only covering his ears a little.]

Amazing! Really. Actually, I think I like it better this way. It adds an element of mystery and intrigue.

[shiftingwinds]

[she doesn't look like she believes him, but she's amused, at least.]

That's very kind of you to say.

[headmt]

I’m not blowing smoke up your ass! I do mean it. Beautiful music played on a proper instrument? We’ve all heard that before. It’s been done.

Beautiful music played on a broken one? New and exciting! You should take it on tour.

[shiftingwinds]

That's not a bad idea... although, there aren't many places we can go right now!

[open! the! locked! doors!]

[headmt]

If you want any help moving it around the place, I will happy to help. I’ll even gather up an audience for you! I’m well-practiced at that.

[hype-man]

[shiftingwinds]

Is that so? Sounds like you've got an impressive array of skills.

[headmt]

Of course.

. . . Though I did find out, rather rudely, that apparently they are all written on the “phone” for everyone to see.

[shiftingwinds]

I haven't finished looking through those yet... would you prefer I didn't read yours?

[okay but how many people have asked him to prove he has the best dick, alli]

[headmt]

Go ahead! If you like. I couldn’t stop you either way, and the truth about these things is no matter what people tell you, of course they’re going to read it.

[i REGRET to report that everyone is a COWARD]

[shiftingwinds]

Well, if you really didn't want me to, I'd try to avoid it.

[but if he doesn't really care, she'll read it.

also wow. cowards indeed.]

[headmt]

That’s kind of you to say.

[She’s free to read it! It’s mostly not worrying. Probably? Maybe.]

So, is this how you’re indulging? Playing an instrument?

[shiftingwinds]

I'm just passing the time while I figure out how I want to indulge, is all.

[she smiles!]

What about you? Is music your indulgence of choice?

[headmt]

Sometimes! Sometimes it’s drink, sometimes it’s dancing, sometimes it’s sex. Sometimes it’s listening to a beautiful woman play some terrible music.

[Reaching to refill his drink again.]

I’m truly not that particular. As long as it’s making me happy in the moment.

[shiftingwinds]

[with a laugh, she plucks a few more strings on the harp. it sounds awful.]

That's a good way to live. You might as well go for the things you enjoy, right? What's the point in avoiding making yourself happy?

[headmt]

You are entirely correct, yet again! You seem to understand a great deal of what makes the world so wonderful.

[Reaching over to pluck one of the harp strings.]

. . . So what are you here for, then?

[shiftingwinds]

Well, if by "here" you mean "this room," I'm just looking to pass the time.

[plucks at the harp string again...]

But as for why I agreed to be here... it's no real secret. [she shrugs.] There's a monster that's been stalking me. I've been lucky enough to have friends who will help me deal with it, but it could get dangerous - so when I got the chance to earn the power to deal with it on my own, I took it.

[headmt]

[He listens to that politely, and then actually goes quiet for a moment? He has barely shut his mouth the whole he’s been in here. But then he just nods, back to bright smiles.]

I’d say I know the exact feeling.

[He’ll reach over to pour the glasses again, offering it out to her.]

Best of luck to you, then.

[shiftingwinds]

[oh... that's unfortunate. her expression is sympathetic, and then grateful when he offers her some more booze. time to continue drinking.]

To you, too. If I can help at all...

[with... indulging, apparently? there's no rule that says they can't all earn what they came here for! at least, not that sqx is aware of.]

[headmt]

[Clink! And then he knocks that one back too. He has pretty much been drunk the whole time he’s been here. Sad. Anyway.]

My dear, you can’t say those things here without meaning them.

[Molly thinks the same! No reason not to help everyone along.]

[shiftingwinds]

[that's a wholeass mood, so has she. i am struggling to think of a single thread i've written where alcohol hasn't been involved.]

Who says I don't mean them?
