Day 241 | Video | Action--Open Mingle
[There is a very tall, pale, blonde man on the screen. He's wearing dark clothes and his blonde hair is slicked back. He gives the camera a charming smile. ]

I understand we're to be inundated with visitors today. I also understand that a sudden arrival here can be a disconcerting and that often requires a drink. I invite everyone to come have a drink at the Blood Shack in sector four. We've got a wide variety of drinks, both ordinary and unusual.

Come spend your day with us at the Blood Shack. We'd be delighted to have you.

[ The video clicks off.

Those that decide to take Eric up on his invitation, will find the Blood Shack up and running. During the day, a few bots can be found doing some of the mundane things like delivering drinks to tables, but during the evening Eric will be behind the bar and the presence of bots is reduced. The bar itself is dimly lit with small tables and booths places about. There's a dance floor and a stage with a pole at one end. The other end of the stage is occupied by what can only be called a throne, which Eric occupies when Spike is behind the bar. There is also a jukebox that customers can play. ]

[ooc: feel free to use this as an open mingle. I've turned off comments so if you want to speak directly to Eric, comment there.]

	[He chuckles, warmly amused.] You know, it just might, at that! [He leans over to offer her his hand.] Captin Jack Harkness. And you are...? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Toul takes his hand and gives it a hearty shake.] It's fine to meet you, Captain. My name is Toul. What country do you serve for? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[It's not quite the question he was expecting, but he only blinks for a moment.] Officially? Britain, but I'm usually fighting on behalf of all humankind. [It sounds like a line, and he gives her a bit of a rueful grin that says he knows it.] And where do you come from, if you don't mind my asking? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I would hope that everyone serving would be. Common goals mean less disagreements. [Toul's sees it as a perfectly genuine question, and is more than willing to accept it so the smile is a little confusing, but maybe there's a joke there she didn't catch.] I'm from Tusseri myself, but I can't say I've ever heard of Britain. What's it like there? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, yeah, in an ideal world, I guess! [He's rather given up on the idea of those, though.] And I've never heard of Tusseri so we're even. [He grins, wryly.] Britain is small and cold and wet, but the people are amazing once you get to know them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Toul doesn't know how to give up on hope, so she'll have enough of it for the two of them if he likes.]

Your Britain sounds really interesting! Tusseri isn't so small, but it can get chilly in the winter months. The countries to the north are much colder. Usually the weather is rather moderate.

How long have you been in his place, Captain? I'm still learning my way around today, which is why I thought stopping in here would be good.

	Cold in the north seems to be a common theme on most planets. [With a grin.] I've been here - oh, something around a month? Did you only just get here today? [Grin softening, turning more sympathetic.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bendthekey 2013-08-31 08:55 pm UTC (link)
	Yes, I did! It's an interesting experience. I've never been to a prison before, but this doesn't seem anything like the ones I've heard of. It's more like a little town. [She tilts her head a bit in curiosity.] Do you know the weather patterns of many planets? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foreverjack 2013-09-03 05:52 am UTC (link)
	[He chuckles.] It's not like any prison I've seen before either. And really not complaining about that fact. [Well, except that traditionally - and oddly - prisons tend to turn more of a blind eye to illegal sexual activities!] I used to know loads of planets, yeah. Did quite a lot of planet hopping in my youth. (Reply to this) (Parent)
