Log;

The Blue Light is decorated; it's got it's usual jazz style but tonight there's some more to it; curtains and tables all look a little bit dated, because they are. Where Blue and Promise found the furnishings for this particular party is something that both of them won't tell, but it looks terrific.

There are corners to hide in and corners to party in, and good music and good booze. It's a party!

"Good for him! He wouldn't want to drive business away like that." She watched the counter top to avoid anything awkward, like... eye contact. "Nah. I'll live dangerously."

"We've got plenty of actual singers to fill in the space, anyway."

Tony tumbled some fruit into the bottom of the glass with the ice and added the wine and club soda, orange juice and honey and the barest splash of brandy. And a little umbrella spearing a cherry, of course.

"Here you go," Tony said, placing the drink in front of her with a little flourish. "It's the fruitiest drink I know except for those ones that get served in a giant pineapple."

Penny took the drink and tried to remember which pocket she'd put her money in. "Thank you... Tony, right?"

"That's right. Are you a friend of Blue's?"

"It's nice to meet you, Tony. I'm... yes? I hope so." She tried her drink. Perfect--the alcohol was completely masked by fruity goodness. "This is really, really good."

Penny retrieved a yellow and set it on the counter. Hopefully that was enough; the rainbow money system still made no sense. "Oh! I'm Penny. Sorry... the whole in-person social exchange thing is new and exciting after spending so much time on the network."

"It's nice to meet you too, Penny." Tony beamed at her approval of his drink-making abilities and wondered why the name was familiar.

"I'm sure if you consider Blue a friend, then he considers you a friend. He's a great guy that way."

"You're a friend of Blue's, too? He's... I don't even know. He offered to donate any money made tonight to the Welcome Center, which is... I mean, considering I have no idea what I'm doing and I haven't known him that long? It's amazing."

Tony's eyes widened.

"Oh, you're that Penny," he said, knowing he'd heard the name somewhere before.

He indicated the brimming tip-jar which she'd put money into a few moments before.

"Those'll be yours then. I told Blue I'd donate my tips tonight to help out."

"That Penny?" she replied, beaming. "I have notoriety now?"

She glanced from the tip jar to Tony. "Really? You don't--I mean, thank you! Thank you so much!" Had Tony been on the other side of the bar, he would have been the recipient of a hug.

"Not notoriety, exactly. Just...I've heard about the Welcome Center, is all," Tony said, rubbing the back of his neck sheepishly.

"I think it's a really good idea. Sometimes people need a safe place to go when they don't have anything."

"I didn't know word was getting around," she said with an equally sheepish smile. "Thank you... the execution of the idea isn't going quite as well as the idea itself, but... hopefully it'll be good, when everything's ironed out."
