The Dive Bar Meme

[clockedsock]

A well-worn, unglamorous bar, often serving a cheap, simple selection of drinks to a regular clientele. The term can describe anything from a comfortable-but-basic neighborhood pub to the nastiest swill-slinging hole. "Man, that place is such a dive bar... Don't go in unless you plan to burn your clothes afterwards." life sucks, off to the DIVE BAR • COMMENT WITH CHARACTER/SERIES IN THE HEADER AND TELL US YOUR SCENARIO PREFS • Comments left blank will be deleted • ROLL 1-5 ON RNG FOR A SCENARIO • TAG AROUND! 01) BARFLY Is that your fourth or fifth drink? Nice. 02) BOOTH In your own mind, you probably think you're pulling an Aragorn. 03) TOILETS Place stinks of piss but it's the most private room around. 04) BACKYARD Where the smokers usually huddle together. The proverbial kitchen of the party. 05) STREET The lamplight is broken and it's fucking freezing. And 3AM. Why aren't you inside? ( by sockle )

You know what's going on

The first time the two of them had walked into the F&F together they'd been greeted with a laugh of 'my two favorite regulars finally run into each other' which had left them both confused, and laughing a little, at how they'd never managed to run into each other there before.

After that it had become a fairly regular occurrence, the two of them arriving together, or meeting there. Today they were there a little earlier than Din's usual visits since it was right after work, he'd actually had to be in the courtroom, which always left him a little frazzled, even when it was the judge who actually liked him and respected his work, so when Cobb had texted asking if he wanted to hustle some tourists at pool, he was obviously in.

The fact that there were no tourists there that evening was a secondary concern at the moment, because he was having a good time anyway.

[It isn't that they never get to be themselves. They do--far more often than Horatio would ever have expected in his earliest youth. There's an absolute freedom in their own home, an easy certainty that the walls were strong enough to hold them safe and secure, that the world might not fall to pieces simply because they had found a piece of joy for themselves.

There's more difficulty when they're out in the world like this. The distance they're meant to keep, even now, was a constant prickling along his spine. The roles they were meant to fulfill came bright and bold again, pressing back at the pieces of themselves that felt so easy and natural when they were alone.

The particular little tavern they've found themselves in tonight feels somewhere strangely in between. It feels oddly deviant to actually sit beside her in a quiet little corner; utterly thrilling to catch hold of her hand and bring it to his lips.]

[The two tacticians would plop themselves down on either side of the bounty hunter, they had been watching her knock back quite a few and figured they should at least treat her to the next few rounds, since they had been entertained watching her drain several hard liquors. The female one would speak first, followed by the male.]

Next round is on us. Youve been putting away quite a lot!

She's Morgan, by the way. I'm Marc. Nice to meet you.

Ashton wasn't surprised to find the younger man already seated at the bar, considering he had - as per usual - gotten caught up in arguing with the chief over the merits of linking up with the IOPSA for this particular investigation. Yes, the circumstances of the disappearance were odd, and okay, witnesses claimed to have seen something unexplainable in the woods nearby that night, but that didn't make it supernatural. It was probably just someone fast and smart enough to play up on people's fears of the unknown. Not a ghost. Not a, he didn't know, a wendigo or some shit? None of that. But his superiors told him otherwise, told him his new partner for the case had already been assigned, and like a good boy he ventured to meet him properly tonight.

"Hey." He greeted, just a little standoffish at first as he took of his fur lined coat and tossed it on the thin back of the bar stool, hopping up onto it after. "Lucas, right?"
