Manhattan bar - romer - 11-08-2006
Edgar came in to the bar looking a bit grim. His shoulders slouched and looking thoroughly depressed he looked around the bar for any signs of life.
"Sophie?" no answer. "Anyone?" still no answer.
"I've got to have a drink." He reached behind the bar, wrapping his hand around the first bottle he could find.
"This'll do...to start with. And noone 'round to commiserate with."

Johnny strolled in a few minutes later.
Geez Edgar, why the long face matey. Bloody hell this place is like a morgue ...
While you're propping dude, chuck us a bottle too will ya.
Hell I need this one, long day behind the wheel, and a bitch of a trip back here, to boot.
Bloody Corsairs ...
Need to talk to ya bout some things." ...
The two of them walk to the juke box, pop some credits in, and sit in a couple of easy
chairs ...

"So, what's on your mind Johnny? Wait, let me guess...you've been fighting Corsairs...and no doubt you've noticed how inefficient our guns are.
Am I right? Heck, ineficient is putting nicely, I guess.
Need another drink? I do..."

"Damn right man, to say they suck, would be a gross understatement. Bloody good ship
ruined by a fashion statement. Glad we aint working seriously hard at the moment, sure
we would be getting our asses soundly kicked by anything with a half decent pilot on
board.
Wheres Boone when you need him ?
Drink, bloody right, need something a little stronger this time ... worn out flying around
with out being able to fire back ...
Thought I fitted a nova AM, never got the chance to use it if I did, never enough energy
left in the old girl to pop a shot off. Oh well." ...
Manhattan bar - romer - 11-08-2006
"Damn, can't get paid and can't even shoot back if we do! Drink up mate! I'm sure Boone will be around some time soon.
It's not like we're getting any gigs.
There's another reason to drink!
Let's get into the flammables. We'll be burpin up fireballs before ya know it!

"Sophie, nice to see ya. Two Flaming Tomorrows please, and heavy on the kerosene,
looks like we are in for the duration ... Fire extinguisher on the side.
I'll leave a tip for the cleaners, could you apologize for us." ...

Renno walks into the bar. Eyes burning, he sneezes.
"Excuse me. Heya Sophie, can you bring me what they are having, please? Hell make it two. Thanks." Turning and walking over to the fellas in the booth. "Hey guys, how's it?" *Ah-choo* He sneezes again. "Ever play naked in the rain? I love it, but sometimes it gives me the sneezes." He rubs his nose with a kerchief from a pocket, puts it back, and turns for the drinks Sophie brings up.

"Aaarrrggghhh!!.....'kin color coordinated....what the....was he thinking....if the power supply was in a jar I couldn't pour it out faster than those guns drain it! Tell me! Is there anything those things are good for? Just wait til Boone comes around...

"Tell ya what, I just managed to steal the keys to Stones armoury on Manhattan, he aint
going to notice for a while. Rumour has it, hes retired up to Malta now and flogged that
old gun running Destroyer of his. Must be loads of stuff to try out in that bird.
Anyway, lets get drinking first ... Blue, Pah, give me spray and pray anytime.
Err Renno, Wanna run the naked in the rain bit past me again ? ...

its an old Seneca thing. we play in the rain tn the nude, brings us closer to the earth mother, or so I am told. I just always get a sneeze. but it is quite refreshing. Try it sometime. But its more fun if you bring some lady friends with you. Keeps the rain a bit warmer I think.
