Summary; The Fables crew offers a toast to the hero of the war.
Log;

[The Blue Light is unfinished; there are boxes everywhere and some of the walls are unfinished. But there's a little table that's in the middle of the mess, and Blue is there with booze, waiting for everyone to arrive.]

[Red hasn't seen the bar before. Even though it's unfinished, it's impressive enough to her.]

Hope you didn't wait too long, Blue.

[See these bandages? Charming's managed to make himself look decent at least with fresh clothes and wrappings for his hand and scalp. His face not so much, how can he drink with gauze everywhere eh??]

Still unpacking?

Not quite. Just getting things ready.

[He offers them both seats]

I haven't been waiting too long.

I can lend a hand later if you still need help.

[The seat is taken!]

It already looks pretty impressive.

I can't.

[A slight smirk with a lift of his one good hand. He takes a seat slowly.]

Pin my time to Pevensie's.

[He pours the drinks]

I'm not pinning any time onto Peter. He gets paid for the work he does. You'll heal up eventually, and then you'll still be paying me those hours.

[Said with a smirk]

I'd like that, Rose.

Time?

[Curious Red is curious.]

You're popular enough, Charming. You'll be better in no time.

Oh a gamble here and a gamble there racks up a little debt.

[Watch him take a sip and wince from the sting. But damn it tastes good.]

Mm, I'd better.

He lost a bet.

[He drinks a sip]

You will. And then you'll sleep with all the women who like heroes.

I'm glad some things never change.

[Sip!]

[Because PC needs to clarify.]

I'm not a hero. I'm a winner.

[He looks up at him]

No. Today, you're both.

I'll make sure they put that in your anthem.

[Non accusatory finger point at PC's direction.]

Whatever you are Charming, you helped us win.

Ah, my anthem. Please tell me you'll play.

[A point of his good finger at Blue. Then a point at Red.]

And you'll dance.

We'll get Giselle to write it.

[He drinks a bit more]

Of course I'll sing. Oh, and -

[From his backpack, two boxes of Turkish Delight]

Here.

Only if you'll dance with me.

[Sip.]

Ah, Giselle... She and I ought to dance with you together.

[He looks at Red 'fondly', you know what he means. Then PC glances to the candy.]

I heard a rumor that was an old vice of yours.

[He raises an eyebrow. Right. And opens the box if they want any]

A rumor? What, you weren't paying attention all those years in Fabletown?

[Without a Snow to annoy, you're not getting lucky anytime soon PC! Red just gives Charming a look of 'don't even try' back. She lets the boys talk for now.]

I was in Europe for a time.

[He reminds Blue with a sip then gives Red a look that more or less says 'Spoil sport.' And she dated Jack Horner too, gaw.]

[He laughs a bit]

Excuses, Charming.

[But it's okay. He pours PC some more]

[Dating Jack was all part of the plan.]

You were probably too busy wrapped up with yourself to notice.

Good ones.

[He insists while taking a sip. Oh Red wants to play that game does she?]

Well there was this lovely girl in Monaco, let me tell you.

[He rolls his eyes]

I'll put her on the list.

We don't want to hear about your romantic conquests, Charming. I want to enjoy tonight.
