	There's a drink from Orion that sends fizz straight up your nose. Don't choke. And there are planetary cake pops in flavors you've never heard of. Also, there are chocolate covered ants. Yes, really. (Reply to this) (Thread)

Mary stood at the refreshments table looking over the array of food spread out before her. There didn't seem to be any servants in this time, so everything had to be fetched herself. That would take some getting used to. The cake pops looked good, even if she had never seen cake on a stick before. Mary picked up an orange-colored one and bit into it. Perhaps she was expecting it to taste like citrus, but it certainly did not. She didn't find the taste to be bad, just strange. Something she had never had before.

Mary sighed. She looked down the table at the drinks. "Is there any wine?" she asked mildly to no one in particular. Wine would probably become a necessity for her in the coming days and weeks.

	"There doesn't seem to be any sort of alcohol at this little gathering," Lucifer replied, stepping up to Mary and reading her name tag. "A missed opportunity, wouldn't you agree, Lady Crawley?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Indeed," Mary replied, turning to the man who was talking to her. "I fear that I shall need copious amounts of it in order to become adjusted to this place." She smiled as her eyes scanned his handsome face, though it fell a bit when she saw his name tag. Was that really his name? What parent would choose that sort of name for a child?

	"I was at the bar myself last night," Lucifer mentioned. He smiled as he watched her read his name tag, and react. "My father has always been on the ostentatious side," he explained, holding out his hand. "Lucifer Morningstar, at your service." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Mary & Lucifer!

"Mr. Morningstar." Mary put her hand in his. "How lovely to meet in person. Yes, it seems that your father must have... quite a dark sense of humor." Naming his child after the devil? That went a bit far for her, but then again, the people here were from all sorts of strange places. Maybe where he lived Lucifer was a normal name.

"You know," she mused. "I have never actually been to a bar."

"I assure you that he most certainly does," Lucifer agreed.

He drew her hand to his lips, kissing it softly before letting go. "Never? I used to own quite the establishment. Lux." And then he'd closed it down and driven away, leaving it and her behind, only to end up here.

"There's a proper bar on deck five. Since it seems we might all be here for a while, you'll have to join me for a drink, sometime."

	How charming for a man with such a name. Mary smiled coyly at him. "Perhaps, though the reason I have never been to a bar is because it is not an establishment for proper ladies." Even if she was out of sorts from waking up in space, at least she still knew how to flirt with a man. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	extraharley 2017-02-24 02:16 am UTC (link)
	"That might be true, but isn't acting a bit improper from time to time thrilling?" Lucifer asked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ladycontrary 2017-02-24 02:23 am UTC (link)
	"It is," Mary agreed. She'd had her fair share of impropriety. Meeting a man at a hotel for a tryst was probably worse than going to a bar when it came down to it. It wasn't as if she didn't drink at home. "I am sure that I will visit the establishment soon, since it seems to be a place where people often meet." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	extraharley 2017-02-24 02:42 am UTC (link)
	He knew she had a devilish streak in her somewhere, all the proper ladies always did. "Brilliant," he said, smiling. He was going to have to sneak over there soon, so he could have a real drink, and not one that caused such an unseemly reaction. "I should warn you, the bartender is by no means a proper lady."

Mary and Tony

Tony had come over to the table, looking for alcohol and was just as annoyed as some of the other party goers when he found none.

Since there wasn't any alcohol, Tony decided a sugar rush was the next best thing. He snagged at least three cake pops while Mary and Lucifer chatted, and when their conversation was over, he grinned at her. "Since we can't get drunk, I'm planning on eating one of each of these cakes on a stick. What DID that orange one taste like, anyway?"

He noted the name tag and held out the hand that wasn't filled with cake, "Lady."

	Mary and Tony ladycontrary 2017-02-24 03:16 pm UTC (link)
	Mary glanced at the half eaten pop in her hand and then back up at Tony. "It is... hard to describe," she replied. "Sweet, and maybe a slight melon taste... but a cinnamon aftertaste." It wasn't necessarily bad, just weird. "How do you do, Mr...." Mary squinted at his name tag. "You Know Who I Am." She smirked slightly at him and cocked an eyebrow.

Tony looked down at his name tag and then back at the Lady, grinning sheepishly. "I just don't like name tags. But we've chatted a bit already on the computer, you were talking about what an adjustment this all is. I'm Tony. And Sweet Melon with Cinnamon does sound... interesting."

Definitely not what he would have expected either. "If that's what we have to look forward to, I'm seriously rethinking grabbing this green one."

	"Yes, I do recognize you," Mary said. "Exactly how are people supposed to know who you are?" And he hadn't told her his last name. It was weird, people not introducing themselves with their full names. Apparently people in the future were very informal. Mary eyed the green pop in his hand. "Perhaps you will be pleasantly surprised and it will be lime." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"This is going to sound like tooting my own horn, which I tend to do a lot but probably polite company like you won't be that impressed," Tony said, still eyeing the green cake pop. Maybe it WOULD be lime. He somehow doubted it.

"But where I come from, I'm kind of world renowned, though whether that's a good thing or a bad thing depends on your perspective. So usually when I go to parties there, people already know who I am." He turned his attention back to Mary, "I guess I have to adapt, too. It's kind of strange, no one knowing who you are. Well, a few people here do. But... yeah."

	Mary and Tony ladycontrary 2017-02-25 01:17 am UTC (link)
	Mary listened to him, knowing that feeling at least a little bit. She was known in the small town she was from; the Earl's eldest and most beautiful daughter, the one who was perfectly poised, but who didn't seem to smile much. That was what she was known for. Her sphere of influence was small, but within it she was a queen. "What is it that you are known for?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Mary and Tony

She was definitely beautiful and poised. Tony bet there was a lot more going on underneath that veneer, though. "Well... I was a kid genius, and then I took over my dear old dad's weapon company at 21, which was pretty young to be a CEO. Stark Industries was already a pretty well known name thanks to him, but I took it further. Then I became a super hero."

His face wrinkled up a bit, like he was deep in thought, and then he said, "But that's enough about me. 'Lady' Crawley, that has to be a big deal where you're from, right? Titles and nobility or something?"

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Mary and Tony ladycontrary 2017-02-25 01:48 am UTC (link)
	And he was confident. Cocky, maybe. At least men like that did not intimidate her. "Millionaire genius super hero... you sound like Howard Hughes." She smiled and shook her head slightly. "I am the daughter of an Earl, though that does not pull as much weight as a Duchess." She liked the flattery though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Stiles chose a fizzy drink. And the first sip had him snorting and what not, reacting to the tickly sensation in his nose. So naturally he went for a second sip, with much the same reaction. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Stiles & Steven stevenuniverse 2017-02-25 12:29 am UTC (link)
	Steven slapped the table when he took the first sip. Then he noticed the boy (man?) next to him snorting and reacting much like he did. He watched him take another drink. Steven waited. "It doesn't get any better, does it?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Stiles & Steven fragilebones 2017-02-26 12:02 am UTC (link)
	"No," Stiles said. He held the drink up to his nose and inhaled. Which caused him to snort again. "That's some wicked stuff," he commented once he could speak coherently. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Stiles & Steven stevenuniverse 2017-02-27 12:17 am UTC (link)
	Steven eyed his drink as if it owed him money. "I don't think I'm going in for a second try, then. But... results may vary." So he took another drink and had the same result. "That's awful!" He took a third drink, despite all of this. (Reply to this) (Parent)

"Oh little... little cakes that look like planets. Because we're in a space ship. I get it," Wade grumbled mostly to himself, picking up one of the guilty snacks, "Bet that was an award winning decision from the catering department. Oh yeah, A plus for creativity from Captain Tightpants."

He turned it around in his hand for a moment. It was rather nicely made, but then everything on the ship seemed fairly nicely made. This was the future. There was probably a deck full of slave robots making everything. Wade shrugged and dipped the cake pop into a bowl of what he was sure were chocolate covered raisins. "Look out! Asteroids! Oh no, save the dinosaurs!"
