[It's night. Eater, dressed in his usual, looks distinctly annoyed.]

Alcohol. I want to get some and I want to drink some in the company of people who will not use any feminine words for me like 'babe', ask me what I'm doing in a place like this, or express a desire for me to flash my tits.

I mean, it's not like I don't flash my tits sometimes - a guy who is given breasts should take advantage and I have to say they're pretty nice - I just don't want it to be a required part of my getting wasted experience.

The bar with the creepy bartender is not an option.

That's a shame, I like getting into fights for no reason.

[athngabla]

Oh? While I prefer having a reason, myself, I never said you shouldn't just start a brawl.

[A beat.]

Except here and now. I'd rather not mix business and fun.

[harpbeat]

Right, right. Wasn't planning to mess up a good time here.

[athngabla]

Quite the contrary. I haven't gotten to flex my muscle to break up a bar fight here, yet. There's just not enough people around right now for everyone involved to enjoy themselves properly.

[harpbeat]

That's pretty sad. I'll have to stop by again when there's more people about.

[athngabla]

Heh, I'll make sure to give you a call when it happens. You said nighttime was your share of the daily quota, right?

[harpbeat]

Sundown to sunrise.

[athngabla]

Perfect timing, then.

[harpbeat]

Peak bar hours. Sometimes I wonder what lunch is like, though.

[athngabla]

That probably depends on the person. For me? Same thing as supper, maybe a bit lighter.

[He shrugs.]

[harpbeat]

I'm going to walk into a twenty-four hour place and make them regret they'd ever decided that it would be a good business decision.

[athngabla]

Testing the limits to a declaration of "all-you-can-eat"?

...No offense, but you don't look physically capable to run a place like that outta business.

[harpbeat]

You're going to want to change your opinion of that.

[athngabla]

"Appearances can be deceiving" is one of those proverbs I'm well aware of.

[harpbeat]

They could've made it up about me.

[He tugs a little at one of his ribbons.]

[athngabla]

I kinda figured as much.

[Ah. Fresh drink? Fresh drink.]

Now that I actually take time to think about it, I'm guessing you get that a lot. My apologies.

[harpbeat]

[Gulp.]

Eh, don't worry, I'm used to it.

[athngabla]

Heh, I won't.

Still, I can't keep claiming ignorance for every faux pas I make. [Modern era. Boring. Etc. Never thought he'd be in this time for so long.]

[harpbeat]

The guy in the girl's body is kind of a special case. Seriously, don't worry about it.

[athngabla]

Suppose I won't, but the more exceptions I make, the more exceptions I'll be inclined to keep making. That's no good.

[harpbeat]

Wherever you want to draw the line is fine with me.
