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.

	"You hitting on me?" Eliot growled, the words half slurred. Seemed like he was hitting on Tach a minute ago, there was definitely something going on between the two. Eliot did not like this, at all. "Don't." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Johnny slowly pointed up at his head to point out the loss of his hat and the presence of it on the other's head, eyebrows raised and an innocent expression. "My. Hat." His expression slowly went into an amused grin. "If I was hitting on you, I'd probably have mentioned the high caliber of your backside." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Eliot flipped the hat off his head, dropping it neatly in Johnny's lap. "Don't go there, pal," he sneered. He spared a glance at Tach. If this guy was really sweet on her, or whatever, he wouldn't cause a scene while she was performing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Thank you, Senor," Johnny replied in a Zorro-accent before settling the hat back onto his head.

He smirked and nodded to the stage when the guy glanced Tachies way. Her instrument was unorthodox, but he was impressed with her stage presence and joi.

"She's something, ain't she? Had some trouble with the basics, but she's amazing easy to train. Faster than most."

	Eliot's response was a grunt. He did not like this guy. He was not-liking him more with each syllable that fell out of his mouth. He flexed his fist, wanting to hit the guy on principle, but he held back. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Aww come on. I mean, you'll hurt her feelings if she's playing her socks off and all you can do is grumble." Johnny snuck up to the guy, hooked his fingers in the grim mouth and tugged them up and away, making him smile for once while Tachikoma played. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	There was a five second delay, where Eliot just looked dumbstruck,a nd then instinctt kicked in. Eliot's response was to lash out, both hands moving to assault the guy. He wasn't thinking about Tach anymore, or anything else. He did not like to be touched, and this guy had just invaded his personal space in an unforgivable way. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Johnny wasn't stupid, he was ready the moment the idea hit him to pull the stunt. One arm went up to block himself and the other hand worked to intercept. "Jesus, who shat in your Jack O'Lantern?!" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

As she played, Tach had been scanning the crowd, looking around and recognizing different costumes. She was enjoying herself. Her eyes frequently swept back to Ellie and Johnny. She was glad that her friends were standing together.

At least, she had been until they started fighting. She stopped playing abruptly, which caused her bagpipes to sound something like a dying cow that was being attacked by zombies. She draped the instrument over her chair and climbed off the stage, trying to push her way through the crowd to reach them at the bar.

	Eliot wasn't a big talker, especially when he was riled up. This guy had done a good job of it, and fast. Eliot was in no mood for games. He attempted a sucker punch, from the left, completely oblivious to everything else around him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Johnny grinned, less cheerful and more toothy. This guy was huge, an inch to two taller, but half a foot more at least in width. Which mean Johnny'd have to be scrappy to keep standing, even in a Zorro outfit and long cloak. He blocked the punch, mostly, and half-stepped his elbow into Eliot's chest, going for a knee as well.

Too many people were trying to stop her to compliment her playing or buy her a drink. She didn't like to be rude, but she had to push a few of them out of the way. "Johnny! Ellie!" she cried as she got close enough to see them, but it was still too loud for them to hear her.

She didn't know why they were fighting, and she was a little confused about how she was feeling. She should be upset or scared for her friends, and part of her was.. But there was something else that she didn't quite understand.

Eliot reacted in time to save himself instant humiliation, though the humiliation he would suffer when he finally saw Tach might be worse than any physical blow. For the moment he hadn't seen her, and he was moving out wide, into the gap created with those near by surged back a bit, to give the two men room to fight. Eliot danced sideways, circling his prey. His eyes were bright and wild, he wasn't going to hold anything back.
