Patrick finished off what he had ordered by now and he was still alone. He was pretty fed up at this point crumpling up the name tag and leaving it on the table. "Good thing I didn't get my hopes up of this situation being different than the spring fling" he thought feeling unwelcome and ignored. Didn't leave a tip since the service for him was below average and nothing close to his experience the last time he was drinking here other than that he did pay for the orders. Needed to get out of here right away and head out to open space. With his sleeping kitten in tow, he went off to the park with that being the last he will be at before going home.[exit]

Millie watched intently as Esmée finished her drink, only to slide the other towards her. It was clear, she was partially spacing out at the moment with how intensely she was staring. How could she not? The woman before her was not only extremely pretty, but she had just taken her own drink of alcohol and Millie was a darned lightweight. Eventually, the more she drank, she would plateau and stop getting any more drunk, but that still took a while. Also surprising from the lightweight, she could hold the liquor rather well. Even when she drank in copious amounts, hangovers were never a thing she ever had to worry about. She'd had, maybe, three since she started drinking at fifteen. And one blackout. That one was due to drinking and not her mental state, thank god. From behind her glasses, her vision started to blur as she continued to space out, though still listening. Her glasses quickly corrected her vision and her gaze drifted to the woman's fingers playing along the rim of her glass. While seeming uninterested, she was actually very much engaged, her faulty wiring just had a tendency to drift away at any given moment. It didn't have to be when she was around people, she could be in the middle of something important for herself and it would just happen. There was nothing against Esmée. She wasn't the least bit boring or anything! In fact, Millie casually nodded along to her story about her friend that couldn't flirt for the life of him as well.

Her attention span was only recaptured when the silk bag was brought up to the counter. Fluttering her lids rapidly, she drew in a breath as she pushed herself up from the bar and looked at the expensively made bag. Swiping her shot glass and Esmée's used glass, she turned to the sink to wash them out before placing them into the dishwasher; which was now finished running and ready for the next load. When she was finished, she leaned in close to see the gleaming foil wrapped around the tiny candy. Blinking curiously as she took a good long look at the candy, Millie adjusted her glasses. Something so ordinary was one of those transformation potions? That seemed like such a silly thing! Sure, she had seen it in movies like Hocus Pocus, but to see it become a real thing...Millie reached out and took the candy from the woman to inspect it further. She listened and focused on the treat. When she was questioned about her favorite flavor, her questioning mind switched to what she would like hers to taste like. She loved sour candy, her favorite treat, and apple flavor anything was a sure fire way to make her happy. Even though apple was her favorite, she couldn't deny the deliciousness of other types. Raspberry. Watermelon. Lemon. The sour versions of all these flavors and more, were simply amazing! Which one should she choose!? Sighing out a soft hum, she gave the candy back trying to figure out what she wanted. "Well..." she began, propping her chin up in her hand as she leaned against the wood of the bar. "I like sour candy the most. Ya know, like the Warheads they used to make when we were kids. I think I would like-..." She trailed off as put a bit more thought into the flavor she wanted. "Something like Blue Raspberry sounds pretty tasty right now."

Even days like this were of great beauty and desirability. It was nothing compared to a cool day on the beach, but this was hardly a mood dampener for the old warrior. Adjusting the blade that hung on his hip the reincarnated hero made his way about without much care for his ever-dampening person. He had been trying to find more to do, more to occupy his time and take his mind off the ever encroaching feeling that there was...no real point in him being here. He figured that living normally would be easy enough right? Girls, time, and what not.

He would eventually come across some place called "The Shimmering Starfish." and this mean that this was either a place for pirates, or a bar. If he was lucky it would be a bar for pirates. Shaking his head to get a little bit of the water out of it he traveled up to the door and gently pushed his way inside. He was wrong on both counts! No pirates! No was it the type of bar he was expecting, but it was clearly a cafe and one with a chill atmosphere. He briefly considered leaving but figured it would be a nice place to hang about.

He was a bit wet, but that didn't bother him though he did not hesitate to take off his shirt and ring it out a bit outside. He placed it on once it felt good enough and strolled his way to the bar and took a menu as he looked things over. He sat next to a woman with extremely long hair, but did not interact outright as he pondered to himself. Current times did have interesting drinks that was for sure, but as such he wasn't quite sure what to get at times besides a good old fashioned beer.

He did decide he'd ask for some fries but when it came to the drinks he wasn't sure. He looked over to the woman next to him "Excuse me Sinnis Wardatu (Young Woman) can you perhaps tell me which of these drinks might be best in this establishment?" he asked a smile on his face. He did throw in a little bit of old language when referring to people, but mostly for the familiarity and habit of it.

Etana did seem to notice her reaction, but it didn't seem to cause much reaction in him. It seems the young lady was also here for the first time, but he only shrugged "It is alright. One needn't apologize when you haven't done anything wrong." she said. She did have a good idea though and he seemed quite into it. The boisterous man practically slapped the table top "Perfect!" and caught the attention of the bartender "I'll have every drink on the menu if you will!"

The Bartender seemed a bit confused at first but Etana was clearly serious about that. The warrior had no apprehension about it either, he did like trying new things, plus if he didn't like it there was always old fashioned beer and what better way to find out what you liked than to try everything? Once that was noted down he looked to Kalistia "I appreciate the idea. I can pay for yours as well I don't mind." he said.

Etana felt no awkwardness, or need to be nervous. He just wasn't the type when it came down to it.

Etana gave her a heart laugh "I'm a little old fashioned so its normally wine and beer for me. This amount of alcohol won't bother me that much, why, I once drank a three-headed ogre under the table! I then proceeded to rob him blind!" he told a short synopsis of a little tale, and Kalistia was lucky for he had many many of those.

Of course that meant the Bartender had to work a bit, but Etana was not backing out of this and once he set his mind to a thing he wasn't going to be swayed. Once the woman ordered a drink, he would also let the Bartender know "You heard the pretty woman with the flowing locks! Shark attack." he said. He ordered a large basket as well so now the Bartender just had to get that to them.

He looked at her "Ah but how rude of me! I forgot to introduce myself...I am Etana Kara-Bel Shenshen, champion of the gods and the worlds most beautiful man." he gave her a smile that said he was half joking, and half not.
