Who: Hennriette Stillman and whoever comes by (open post folks!)
Where: The Snake Pit, New Orleans
When: Thursday night, Friday night, both, whatever, before the Wedding Weekend

It was a normal enough night at the Snake Pit, couples and small groups scattered throughout, Rita the Python was on the shelf above the bartop, as always, the dancers had just begun weaving through the crowd.

Henn was in her natural habitat behind the bar, hair pulled up into a severe ponytail, a streak of red down the middle of her bangs. She was leaning forward, forearms resting on the bar, for anyone tall enough the position provided view of the edge of a tattoo across the small of her back. For the less-height-endowed there was a lot of cleavage to look at, as well as a tattoo of an anatomical heart with flaming wings on her chest.

It only figured that after one day off for flying, the next day would be hell. Sonya was even more grateful for the portkeys and used her free time to pay another visit to the Snake Pit. It was still a walks to the bar, but she didn't have the energy nor the experience enough to create a safe portal. Still, the spooky atmosphere reminded her of home, and the hour change meant she had an extra hour to unwind.

So, wearing shorts and t-shirt with her blonde hair hanging over her shoulders, she trudged over to the bar. "Just get me whatever whiskey you have on tap." She pulled out some money.

	Henn smiled as she straightened, snagging a glass, "Is that with an E or without? Because, see, there's a difference between Whiskey and Whisky." It wasn't a huge difference in the grand scheme of things, but it was a difference and most people preferred one or the other. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Sonya looked up, trying to keep a poker face, thinking a moment. "Hell, make it without an E. I've money for it and I want it to burn when it goes down." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	There was a smile at that as she poured the drink and set it down, "I like the way you think." She leaned against the bar with one hip then, just giving the tables a quick scan in case she was needed before asking, "So, how's kicks?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Really, part of Sonya knows she should be careful. Her mother was a good example of what happened when alcohol became a way of coping. The other part told her she's not as weak as her mother was. She set the money on the table.

"What's the point of whiskey at all if it doesn't burn?" She takes the glass and swings back, swallowing in one go before taking a breath, her eyes tearing up. "That's the spot."

Sonya sets the glass down. "Depends on what you mean by 'kicks'. The job sucks at the moment, but I had a great day yesterday.

	She shrugged, "Some days you've just got to keep kicking just to keep above water. Take it as it comes, s'how I usually cope. You new to Vortexville?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She smirked, blinking away tears . "I've been kicking for the past...oh, say tenish years. I've been hear for about a week or so, so I suppose that's new. What about you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Who me? Oh I was born here." A pause then, tilting her head as she thought about that, "Well, I'll be born here, my parents only just got engaged. So, uh, I'm like, living in my own past, it's kind of weird, but it's kind of awesome too." She shrugged, "Haven't been here that long though, not quite a week." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I'm not even going to try and figure that one out. And I've seen a lot of strange things in my relatively short life" Rita eyes her whisky glass. "Don't even think about it." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
