RE: Employee's Rest - bar at The Ring - Auriec - 09-12-2013
... close his eyes, mentally prepared for the worst, and downed it within a few seconds. Andreas immediately started shaking himself, the taste of this .. 'concoction' send shivers up and down his spine.
"Awful", he mutters as he felt the need to throw up, his body starting a rebellion against what he inflicted himself, but restrained himself in the end. "Certainly not used to something like that."
"Not sure if the miners have a hard life because they drink this crap or drink this crap because they have a hard life... possibly both."
When the effect of the alcohol kicked in shortly after, he walked - or rather stumbled - out of the bar. Luckily, he could also rest on the ring this night. Good thing he's got a day off tomorrow.
As soon as he's sober, he will try to find the room.
For now, he'll just sleep that concoction from hell itself off.
"Never again."

Another day goes by and a bald, young man in his early 30s walks into the bar looking around. He seems to be looking around trying to get his bearings and locate himself on the station but then shrugs it off and looks around the bar as he wanders in. He has a black leather jacket on with the AFC colors on the back and "President" on the bottom rocker.
He looks around at the people there, noticing them to be tired workers relaxing from a long day. He shrugs to himself and thinks maybe he could get a good chat or maybe even a job offer from one of them as an escort. He was tired himself after flying for so long in his Arrow and needed a place to relax as well. The run he did really wore him off.
The man walks to the bar counter taking some change from his pocket and orders himself a beer, barely getting through the language barrier but "beer" seemed to be a universal word luckily for him. He waits, leaning against the counter, and watches what is on the TV mounted on the wall.

Obviously tired man in Daumann security division uniform entered the bar. Each of his next steps further inside music-filled hall costed him more painful pulses in his head.
"- Drank too much yesterday Udo. Miner's Recharger isn't some weak Synthbeer." - the bartender said to him.
"- Not so loud. Geez, my head... Give me something for hangover and light breakfeast."
The uniformed pilot sat alone next to table in the corner and leaned against wall with closed eyes, trying not to think about the pain.
"- Here's the pill and tube of warmed up Steakpaste. Anything to drink? Synth juice from White Peaches, how about it?"
"- Just water. The only thing in that bar without "synth" in name."
"- Heh..."
"- Don't 'heh', mkay? I'd vomit all over your precious place if I drank synthetic juice in my state. It doesn't go too well mixed with alcohol."
"- Right."
Bartender went towards the bar and pilot noticed someone clearly not from Daumann watching news. He never saw him here earlier, and curiously stared at him when the transmission ended.

Sunny watched the news and got bored quickly. It was just another update on some political blaberings between Rheinland and Liberty and he had enough of it. He sighed shaking his head and almost didn't notice the bartender coming with his order of beer. He nodded and slipped some credits on the table to pay for the drink and then went back to looking at the news, taking a sip of the Rheinland beer, which he quite enjoyed as it was better than any Liberty beer he had tasted.
Rolling his eyes finally and breaking his gaze from the television, he looks back around the room seeing if there was anyone to talk to. He then spots the man staring at him and raises an eye, locking his line of sight at him. He sips his beer again and nods a hello to the man, not wanting any trouble and notices hes quite tired himself.

Stranger noticed Meyer's signals.
"Finally" - Daumann thought. "Someone to talk to"
"- Ey, come here, friend. Let's have a talk."
Sunny slowly approached Daumann's table, sipping beer and looking at man in uniform. His head was still wet, like he left the shower just few minutes ago without bothering to dry the hair.
Fighter Club president sat on a simple metal chair in front of Daumann pilot.
"- Napping with some beer after work, eh? I'm Udo, I work here in the security division. And you are?.."

*Sunny siped some more beer and watched him for a few seconds before answering.*
"Just a freelancer in the mood for a cold drink after a long run. Security huh? Must be ...
*He examines the man a bit more.*
"...tiring."
*He nods after a while.*
"I'm Sunny. I run a fighters club and sometimes operate and help out around here."
RE: Employee's Rest - bar at The Ring - Pavel - 04-24-2014
"Myeah, it is tiring" - Daumann replied.
"Few days long patrol with basing from local stations, crazy action, return to The Ring if one gets out alive, day-two off for fun and repeat the cycle. But I like it."
Security man leaned forward, closer to Sunny's face, whispering:
"They got some goddamn fast ships in the hangars, all yours. So long as you work here, kill pirates and competiton, you may choose whatever you want to fly."
Grinning, Meyer continued:
"Eagles at Modays, Talons at Tuesdays, Mantas at Fridays, Wraiths at Sundays...whatever you want.
Claim kills and you get acces to any ship available. Geez, I wouldn't be surprised if after modifications we were allowed to fly some of that new Gallic stuff. I love that life."
RE: Employee's Rest - bar at The Ring - nOmnomnOm - 04-24-2014
*Sunny nods*
"Gallic stuff eh? I wonder how you'd get your hands on those. Do they even come down here?"
*He couldn't help but grinning back a bit seeing his smirk. The man looked like he was half tired as before from the excitement. He sips his drink and notices the glass was already empty.*
"So what do you for fun then on the day or two? Drink?"
RE: Employee's Rest - bar at The Ring - Pavel - 04-24-2014
"Gauls actually trade with Rheinland a bit. Sure it's a long way and much often they visit Kusari where they leave their products and take home Sirian ones, but they also visit those regions. We keep some tanks with their fuel on The Ring."
"Hey I know I may be crazied a bit, but it's day off, time to relax."
"For fun I drink, bet with other guys, pick up some girl from administration..." - here Udo smiled - "or just chill out at the bar, talking with all sorts of folks who come here.
Do you like games Sunny? I feel my mind is getting online again, and would like to have some fun."
RE: Employee's Rest - bar at The Ring - nOmnomnOm - 04-24-2014
*He tips his cut again hoping for a few more drops but its all dry.*
"I could do for some kind of game... I don't mind a game of chess now and then. Do you play? Its good for the mind like you said... I wish they said the same thing about beer."
"You think they have a board around here?"
