[hello, tranquility. how are you this evening. have the face of someone you don't see very often peering into his device with a bemused little smile.] Okay, this is a little bit of short notice, but since it's just come to my attention, I might as well go ahead and try to make something of it.

My sister - whom I'm sure some of you have had the incredible fortune of meeting since her arrival - has come across a rather .. sizable stock of alcohol. Aaand she was going to attempt to keep it all for herself, but given the fact that I'm almost positive she'd end up with alcohol poisoning if she did, I've decided to do something a little more useful with it.

If I'm not mistaken, it's been a while since we've all had a chance to let loose and unwind. It also happens to be Cinco de Mayo, so what better excuse to have a couple of drinks and relax a little bit?

We're going to have everything set up in one of the common areas, and there's going to be plenty of drink to go around for anyone that wants to come by. If we can swing it, there might even be tacos.

[space tacos. because why not.] If anyone wants to bring anything, feel free! Just consider this a formal invitation from your resident Freelancers to have a little fun.

[mumble grumble] You could have left that part out.

[And she wasn't going to drink it all at once! Just.... keep it all secret. Yep.]

[sorry, what was that? he's too busy being pleased with himself to hear your mumbling.] What part was that, exactly?

[B|! She scoffs.]

Forget it.

[south why you mad though.]

Didn't want me to tell the rest of the crew you wanted to hold out on them?

[o u no. stuff and things.]

Any reason they needed to know?

[and things and stuff?]

Not really, but I didn't feel the need to keep anything from them.

[he really needs to stop grinning. and intentionally poking the bear that is south's temper.]

Yeah? Don't let it bite you in the ass.

[That's right, keep kicking the hornets' nest, dude.]

[he's wearing one of those protective beekeeper suits. he'll be fine.]

When has anything I've ever done gotten me in trouble?

[oh, wait. there was that one time someone cleared him for equipment usage in the field and he ended up getting snapped at. hm.]

[Multipurpose armor! Good call.

By the way? No answer. Just a LOOK. You know it, with both eyebrows raised and her head nodded forward just slightly and cocked to one side? Yeah. That one.]

[he's pretty sure every set of mjolnir power armor needs it. you never know when you're going to be attacked by a swarm of killer bees.

.. ohhhh yeah, he knows that look. to say that he's familiar with it would have been putting it mildly - and while he's sure other agents come into contact with it more frequently than he does .. still.

don't call his bluff, south. let him have this one. he doesn't often have to use that excuse, and you know that.] Don't you dare call bullshit.

[Pretty much at the same time he says it:]

Bullshit? Yeah. I think I will. [Have a little smirk, bro~]

I said don't - [really, north, what's the use? you might as well stop trying.

but he mumbles something as he shakes his head with a small chuckle.]

And this is why everyone always asks me if I'm related to the problem. You're a pain in the ass, you know that? [it's said with the utmost affection, of course. the utmost.]

Yeah? I think it runs in the family. [stiiill smirking.]

[yeah, yeah .. smirk all you like. he's still the one that took your pilfered alcohol and is sharing it with the rest of the ship.]

I think it's a recessive trait, though. Has to be. [shit-eating grin, here? nah, you don't see anything ..]

[yes she knows, this is why she has to get her jabs in where she can, gdit]

Maybe. But you got it too, you pain in the ass. And while we're at it? You're a thief, too.

[proceed .. and make 'em good, huh?]

The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the one. Everybody on this ship could do with a stiff drink, I think. [totally ignoring that jab and just keeping right on grinning? you betcha.

and that was very much not a star trek reference. shh.]

[Bit of a long beat here...]

Okay, Robin Hood. But I'm not babysitting a spaceship full of drunks, especially when I plan to have some for myself.

What, you're not going to be my Friar Tuck? Never mind - you're not very jolly, even when you've got a bit of alcohol in you. [north. north. stop while you're ahead, buddy. she's gon' kill you.]

[Yeah dude she knows where you fucking sleep. One eye open, man, one eye open... ]

I don't do jolly. [Tone = "Durrh."] Especially not for these people.

And I'm gonna get you back for this.

[yes, she does. and he keeps his door locked all the time - and wakes up at the smallest noise. he'll hear you coming, so you might as well not even try, kiddo.

her tone makes him laugh, just for the simple fact that he'd been more than expecting it.] Right, how could I forget?

And I kind of expect you to. Which means I'll be waiting for it, and you'll never catch me off-guard.

[grin.]

[Ohhh, no. No, she doesn't have to get you back anytime soon. So you just wait.]

Yeah. That's always worked out so great for you.

[jkaflsdja OH AND HEY PS: STOP GRINNING.]

[well of course it isn't going to be anytime soon - he knows you much better than that, thank you very much.

but that doesn't mean he doesn't still have the patience of a saint, and the memory of an elephant. he will never forget, and he will always be waiting for it.

oh and uh, no. gonna keep on grinning here. hope you don't mind.] Been working out pretty well so far, if you ask me ..

And what kind of uses are you putting it to?

I'm sharing it with everyone on the ship. Pretty good use for it, don't you think?

I'm always in for a party and for getting to know people. It's been a while, by the way. [He chuckles.]

Good to see you, Stats. It has been a while. [and he smiles right back.] Then you should feel free to stop by - everyone's invited.

I'll be right there.
