[The Sizzle 'n' Sear in Sector 2 was decorated for a Grand Reopening with strings of small white lights on the trees outside and candles with fresh flowers on every table. The new paint was done, lightening up the interior a bit more from the darker colors it had been originally. Piper hadn't been a fan. Night clubs were dark, restaurants needed to be lighter, in her mind, and the dark wood was enough contrast.

The menu was finally finished to Piper's liking, and she had done the place up extra special for the evening. Having sent out flyers a few days ago, she was a little nervous that things wouldn't work out perfectly, but she was maintaining her outward calm.]


{OOC: Mingle style post! I've made a thread if anyone wants to catch Piper specifically, but feel free to tag around and enjoy each other's company!}

[Buffy has the evening off from Merlotte's and she's curious about the Sizzle 'n' Sear revamp. It's got nothing to do with competition and more to do with curiosity. She also thinks it's a good idea when residents (she refuses to call them inmates) take over businesses. Maybe it's a facade, but it feels like they're more in control. She catches sight of Piper and moves across the room with a smile.]

It looks really good in here. I like the lights.

Thanks. I wanted to brighten the place up since the Wardens said I couldn't make one of my own.

[She chuckled a bit.]

I might ask for more freedom to change things around later, but I have to earn some 'points' first. Whatever that means.

But, it's a step closer. I've wanted my own restaurant for ages.

Rehibilitation points. Basically, you prove you're a good kid before they give you the good toys. [Buffy smiled at that.]

Definitely a good start. I'm anxious to eat and how do you feel about take out?

Pretty much. So, I'm planning on being on my best behavior for a while, then I'll ask for bigger renovations. [She grinned at the idea. She had plans.]

I used to handle the catering for a place I managed back home. I guess that could work like take out. [She laughed a little.]

What sort of renovations? [Buffy is curious. She knows very little about the restaurant business despite the fact that she's a waitress in one.]

I don't cook much. Noodle shops and street vendors get oldish fastish.

Maybe some changes in wall placement. Of course, I know I have to be careful about load bearing walls and all that. But, so far, I'm happy with it.

You don't? [Piper looked surprised.] Have you ever tried?

Gotta say, I really love what you've done with the place.

Thanks. The darker colors felt a little dingy, like they were hiding something. This feels a lot cleaner and a lot classier.

And alive. Life's definitely something this place needs as a whole. I know it's a prison, but people could stand to be a little more lively -- y'know?

True. And, hey... this is more like a Club Med than a prison, anyway.

[Not that it really covered the fact that they were still stuck away from home, but at least it was nice surroundings. They could use a little cheer and distraction.]

So, you want to try anything specific?

[Since Buffy doesn't cook, she's a fan of restaurants. She's here to check out new options, mingle with friends and get dinner. She can be found doing all of these things. Feel free to stop her and say hi.]

[While Rose has heard of Buffy via Spike and Sam, she has never met the girl. She knows that she is a slayer and while she wouldn't give her a reason to stake her, Rose would still be careful around her. She didn't require food to sustain her but it didn't stop Rose from checking out the place because she was curious; she'll probably just order a few drinks and that would be it.

Of course, when Rose was thinking about this she wasn't looking where she was going as she almost collided with Buffy.
]

Sorry! [She says apologetically, taking a step back from her.]

[Buffy doesn't know about Rose. She knows that Spike is seeing someone, but that's the extent of her prior knowledge.

When Rose nearly collided with Buffy, she took a step back, using some of those slayer reflexes to save the half full glass of wine she's got.]


It's okay. I tend to be collide-y too. WIth people mostly. Sometimes objects.

Surefire way to get bruises, right? [She laughs a little, noticing how quick Buffy was to prevent her wine from spilling. Rose doesn't draw attention to it, but she keeps it in mind anyway.]

I'm normally not clumsy but I was lost in my thoughts and I suppose it interfered with my steps. Hm. I think that sounded better in my head.

Good thing I'm not a bruise easy kind of girl. [For many reasons.]

Oh, it's okay. It sounds entirely plausible out loud too. Sometimes I get lost in my head and it interferes with my steps too.

Then I guess we have that in common, don't we?

[She looks a little amused, her mood light.]

This place is rather nice, isn't it? I thought I'd stop by and check it out, see what was on offer. I'm Rose by the way.

Yeah and I like the whole prisoners taking over thing, even if it's sort of...minimal.
[She smiles in return]

I'm Buffy.

[Rose is determined not to sit at home and mope with the Doctor gone. Sure, her smile might be a bit forced and her cheer a bit cardboard, but she's here and that counts for something, right? She's hoping that it does. Come talk to the 'fake it 'til you make it' girl.]

[Kitty was looking around as well. She wasn't avoiding the inevitable depression of missing someone, but she was avoiding boredome. Getting dressed up to go to an opening night party sounded like a good idea at the time.

She wandered over at seeing someone by herself. Deciding to be social, and this one looked like she needed a smile, she stopped by the table.]


Is this seat taken?

[She hoped that didn't sound too much like a cheesy pick-up line because that really wasn't what she was going for.]

[Boredom is as good a reason as any to go out, and to be social. Rose appreciates the effort and smiles at Kitty before shaking her head. She's not considering it a pick up line, just being friendly.]

Not at all. Have a seat. Place looks fantastic, doesn't it? [She always thought it was a bit dark in here.]

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]kitty_phase
2013-04-23 02:19 am UTC (link)
It does. It was just redone, wasn't it?

[She settled down.] Have you tried anything, yet?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]mightbelate
2013-04-24 04:23 pm UTC (link)
[Rose nods.] It was sorta dark in here before.

[And then a head shake.] I was just lookin' over the menu and thinkin' 'bout orderin' a glass of wine. Everythin' sounds good.

What kind of wine do you usually drink? [Being a teenager, Kitty did not know these things very well.]

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]mightbelate
2013-05-01 02:16 am UTC (link)
Somethin' white, sometimes rose wines. [She does look young, but Rose isn't the type to wander around and tell people they can't drink because of their age.]
