[closed] say, what's in this drink?
Who: Pyro, Bobby and Oswin
What: Having a perfectly normal friendly dinnerand spiking Bobby's drinks
When: Evening 282
Where: A nice restaurant in Thor
Rating: PG-13 (language, drinking)
[Pyro and Oswin agreed on a relatively central location in case anyone needed to be carried home, so they've chosen a restaurant in Thor, close to all of their home districts. It's licensed, just as Pyro promised, but of course they won't be pressuring Bobby into any drinks if he goes back on his own promise to try at least one.
They've each got bottles in their jacket pockets to facilitate things if it comes to that, after all.
This'll be pretty much the end of Pyro's savings, so he's not going to be drinking much, since he's sure that both of his dinnermates would bitch him into the ground if he suggested a dine and dash. Besides, someone's got to babysit Bobby, and possibly Oswin if she gets really pisstanked again. No matter what happens, tonight is going to be interesting.
He's the first arrival, sitting at a table near the front with a glass of water for now and desperately trying to look casual. It's not working; his devious smirk is visible from space.]

You look way too happy about this.
no subject
Considering Oswin dragged me out for tea last time, this is a step up. Besides, getting out of the city feels good. You should try it sometime.
no subject
[ And that'll be the end of his sarcastic remarks about John's departure. He's annoyed that he left without any notice, but Bobby's not his babysitter. ]
You ever been to this place before?
no subject
It was a last minute thing. Didn't really have time for goodbyes. It's not like I went off storming the enemy's castle or anything.
... speaking of which, why didn't you? It sounded like the perfect chance for some hero time.
[He glances around the restaurant.]
Nah, just picked a place close to all of us. It's fancier than it looked from the outside. [His lip curls a little. He's still got an aversion to anything that smacks of wealth after his time spent on the streets, and there's the more practical concern of his savings drying up and no new job on the horizon.]
no subject
I didn't wanna leave Rogue by herself. She just got here, after all. [ She needed time to adjust to Asgard. His expression turns a bit challenging, almost predicting John's next retort. Don't make fun of him for being a good boyfriend. ]
Yeah. Let's hope the menu's decent. [ Ugh, he really doesn't want to drink, but he can't chicken out now... ]
no subject
And that Oswin hurries up. I'm starving. [That's not at all the reason he's eager for her to come, but he's keeping a tight lid on the night's plans.]
no subject
She's wearing this dress, some black heels, and her hair up.]
Sorry, got caught up at work. New job. Lot's of new customers.
no subject
No problem. Where d'you work?
no subject
Wear that to movie nights and I might actually come to a few more.
[Then he sits back and waves over a waiter, half-listening for the answer about Oswin's new job.]
no subject
Electronics store. It's old stuff, but easy enough to understand.
no subject
Nice. In Odin or another District?

[Then she turns to the waiter and orders a cosmo.]
no subject
I'll, uh, have a... beer. [ That's totally manly, right? Logan would be proud. ]
no subject
Not bad, Iceman. We'll work you up to the stronger stuff. You can start with a sippy cup.
[Then he glances over at Oswin, actually impressed.]
That's a good find. Better than bartending for pissy locals.
