Johnny neatly dodged another giggling Tinkerbell on her way to the powder room, trying to not inhale the miasma of glitter following her. This was Tachi's first sortie out as a real pub musician. Bagpipes, of all the instruments to choose. He chuckled and shook his head. Made sense with the bubbly and beyond quirky robot-turned-girl and she had been practicing the aptly themed music for a good while.

Screwing the hat better to his head, he had chosen a respectable Zorro costume for the night's festivities, Johnny wandered on into the pub. The public was starting to mill and fill the area.

Nobody had really recognized Tachikoma's costume yet as being her former boss, Major Motoko Kusanagi. However, with the skin tight bodice, thigh-high boots, and distinct lack of pants, nobody really seemed to argue.

She stood with her bagpipes near the stage, waiting for her cue to go on. She was craning her neck to look at the door, hoping her friends would show up soon. She smiled brightly and waved when she saw Johnny walk in. She bounced excitedly on her toes, putting on a bit of a show for nearby onlookers given her particular outfit tonight.

	Johnny laughed and slinked over to the stage and his excited protege. The eyes bugging out at her outfit gave him a pretty good idea of how the audience would take the show: wonderfully, even if they'd be mostly deaf to the music. "Easy there, Tiny Tank," he grinned and hugged her, causing some awws when he blocked the view. "You're gonna pop keeping that up." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Tach hugged back, grinning. She didn't quite interpret his statement the way he might have meant it. She giggled. "That would be bad! Especially since I just had it repaired from Arth!" The volume on her bagpipes was working properly now. She bounced up and down a few more times, fingers holding onto Johnny's arm. "You're still gonna play one with me, right?"

	"Now Miss Tachikoma," he replied with a mock-affronted tone. "Have I ever presented myself as untrustworthy? I promised to accompany and accompany I shall." His grin got crooked. "But you'll stand in front, all the men'll love your outfit more." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Your outfit is good too!" she argued, reaching up to straighten Johnny's hat and brush her fingers over his mask. "Do you fence?" She grabbed the plastic rapier from his waist and took a step back, waving it at him menacingly and grinning. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He closed his eyes and scrunched his nose as she played with the hat and mask. It tickled! "Aye, swash-swash buckle-buckle," he smirked, but jumped back in fright of her and the overgrown cocktail toothpick. "Ahh, save me from the desperada!" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Eliot had agreed to come out and see Tach play the bag pies. He wasn't a social creature by nature, and the idea of going to a pub on Halloween wasn't really his idea of fun. He didn't dress up, he wore jeans and a blue shirt, his hair hanging down. Casual, comfortable.

He went inside and sneered at the mass of people. He spotted Tach, and moved toward her, head and shoulders down to avoid as many people as he could. Seeing that Tach was involved in a conversation with someone else, he hovered back, eyes scanning the pub and taking it all in.

Tach giggled and lunged, tracing a 'T' across Johnny's chest. "Ha-ha!" she cried with a flourish before handing the plastic sword back to Johnny. "I should be somebody with swords next time," she said happily.

She glanced up and saw Eliot lurking around. She grinned and started to wave, but one of the bar employees tapped her elbow before she could go over to him. She was on! She nabbed Johnny's Zorro hat and put it on her head. It didn't go with her costume at all, but she grinned. "For luck!"

"Ohh, you got me!" He chuckled and took back the rapier. "Oh yes, let's arm you with pointy objects, booze and candy. That sounds like a plan."

He shook his head and surrendered, what harm would it do? "You are the bagpipe playing Major with a Zorro hat. Toss it to me after your first song, alright?"

He hugged her, and then smacked her butt lightly to the stage. "Break a leg, Tiny Tank!"

	Ow, fuck. Three guesses what this guy did for a job and the first two don't count. Johnny worked on keeping the tally even, punch for a punch, kick for a kick. He could bowl the guy over (like this guy was trying), so his hits were focused to where they'd do the best damage. Kidney shots, cradle of the shoulder, just not the face or nuts. That was dirty.

	Tach's arrival had distracted Eliot enough that he turned, just in time to see the guy grab her. based on her startled reaction, Eliot knew she didn't know the guy. Forgetting the goon he was fighting, he turned his focus to this other guy, swiftly avoiding Tach as he moved to take the idiot down. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Johnny was about to protest being suddenly ignored when he saw over his shoulder what the problem was. Some grubby guy was feeling Tachi up. "Oh screw that." He grabbed Tachikoma, scooping her up and away from the drunk bastard and giving his opponent plenty of space to break the guys lips and hands. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
