BARTENDER - BLUEBELL

[wooliefrand]

WHO: BLUEBELL + CUSTOMERS
WHERE: BLUEBELL BARN
WHEN: BARTENDER GAME

[ Your barn has a new???? (temporary???) addition! One of the outside walls now has a cabinet of various drinks, all of which sits behind what appears to be an L-shaped bar counter, complete with a sink, ice box, and glass cabinet on the inner side, and stools for customers(?) on the outer side.

Posted on the wall is a recipe book, and above it, a big chalkboard listing the various drinks from said recipe book.

Tied to the drinks cabinet are a number of ribbons in your barn's color. Wonder what those are for. ]

[ is it even morning ]

[ she offers him tonic ]

Please drink this and try to relax.

[featherduster]

[ It will never fucking be morning at this rate

Taking it, squinting at the bottle ]

What is it?

[axingnicely]

Medicine to help with your sickness. Your, ah, friend, Styx-san, took some.

[ so she knows it works and she's not just feeding him questionable liquids ]

[featherduster]

[ MAYBE STYX-SAN SHOULD STOP TAKING MEDICINE FOREVER, EVER THINK OF THAT

Seems legit to Vash though, since he downs the contents ]

Anything to ward off the hangover at this rate . . .

[axingnicely]

[this isnt gross knives juice hopefully. also getting him water ]

Please let me know if there's anything else I can get you.

[featherduster]

[ Starting to magically sober up wao ]

No way . . . you just got here. I can't have you working yourself to death already.

[axingnicely]

It is no trouble. [ it's a bit of trouble ]

Please focus on resting.

[featherduster]

Why don't you sit with me instead?

[axingnicely]

If you'd like.

[ goes to sit, giving him a bit of space ]

[featherduster]

You're really good at keeping a cool head, but I think just about anybody'd be overwhelmed right now.

I promise it's not like this all the time.

[ Just every day since like day 10 . . . ]

[axingnicely]

It has been.... a lot....

[ lol ]

That's a relief to hear.

[featherduster]

We've got these things called "rituals" -- usually a demon or a troublemaker stirring up challenges that each flock has to deal with. The one right now just happens to be really long and involve a lot of booze . . .

Anyway, point is: there's not always a ritual going on. Things are usually pretty leisurely the rest of the time -- chores, gardening, hunting, y'know . . . basic stuff.

[axingnicely]

[ she does appreciate all this info but is not particularly as comforted as she'd like to be.... definitely will feel better after she vents her feelings but for now she's just trying to keep composed ]

I do love gardening.

[ ... and a little smile ] Your friend, Styx-san, told me you both come from a very barren place. So I would be happy to help out if you should need assistance growing anything.

[ WOLFWOOD MEDDLING . . . ]

He wasn't lying. We don't have any natural vegetation where we come from.

So, I'd love to learn anything from you that I can!

[axingnicely]

[ this does make her smile a bit. ]

Of course. Not many people take an interest in gardening, so.... I would be delighted to teach the both of you.

[ aka, don't worry vash, wolfwood isn't safe either ]

[featherduster]

Most people aren't interested in plants?

[ AGHAST, TBH ]
