It wasn't often that Ted found himself in a bar on a Saturday night. He'd never been much of a heavy drinker or partier, even when he'd turned 21. He'd had other things to worry about in his life and just never had the time to go get wasted. That wasn't to say he was planning on getting wasted tonight or anytime in the near future, but after a show like that, he certainly needed a drink.
He didn't know what was wrong tonight. He had trouble keeping people up and spinning and nearly dropped a chair on someone's head. (It was a very near miss.) He supposed he was tired, too tire to really do anything properly, but he also felt alive with energy and couldn't stop thinking. His body was too tired for its own good, and his mind couldn't stop. So, he figured a trip to the bar might do him well, help calm his mind, perhaps.
He stepped up to the bar, tapping his fingers nervously on the counter. He still didn't know many people, and he never knew how they would react. (Which was ridiculous of course, because every single person he'd met was wonderfully nice.) He caught the eye of the bartender and cleared his throat gently, giving him a smile.
"Can I get a glass of whatever you have on tap?" Did they even have a tap system? Could they do that with their constant traveling? "Or a bottle," he corrected. "Or whatever it is that you...have. Could I just have a beer?"
This was not going well.
