-- they'll be happy to know that as I saw you go

When: Friday 8th of June, evening time.
Rating: PG-13, but he'll probably have a potty mouth, so fair warning.
Characters: Bucky Barnes ([personal profile] yourbestguysgun) and open to anyone who'd be at the Blue Light. Feel free to have been there with him for a long time.
Summary: Somebody's a super friendly drunk given the right opportunity for it.
Log:

The last time Bucky was happy like this, he was surrounded by his team, his friends, leaning against the bartop in uniform and teasing the ever loving hell out of his best friend. He tries not to think about it too often, mostly because it feels a little bit like it's way above his own understanding. He can deal with a lot of things, but dimension hopping is a stretch. Of course he misses it, the Howling Commandos, the camaraderie, the sense of belonging, but the City isn't so bad when it's not jerking his chain, and he likes the people he's gotten to know.

Most of them, anyway.

He's been drinking - quite a bit, actually, - but more as a sign of how good he feels today, laughing at Steve and the rest of his friends, and heckling the band to play something he recognises. It's an easy feeling, and it seeps into his posture, shirt sleeves rolled up, animated as he talks. His beer is clutched in one hand, half-empty as he waves it.

[ Clint enjoys a good drink as much as the next man, and here there is little to stay sober for, no last minute calls to grab his bow and take position. It's actually kind of nice, or at least it was, and then it began to get boring.

A fun night out, however, is exactly what he needs.

He's put away plenty to start feeling the effects, but not enough to be drunk, still as steady on his feet as ever, and despite letting his hair down he doesn't quite let his guard down.

The song finishes, and Clint talks as if he's continuing a conversation from earlier, but the chances are he's just being blunt.

So, you're bedding Rogers, how's that working out for you?

[personal profile] bettercallit 2012-06-08 07:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He lifts a hand up to pat him on the back, a lazy action done almost as if he's bored, but it's merely how he rolls with things.

There's a definitely hint of amusement as he sips his beer, takes his time in responding to let Bucky sweat for a minute, and then he places it back down.
]

The curse. Really? Of all the things you could've gone with, you're blaming it on the curse? There's a reason why I'm good at what I do, Barnes, and it's not 'cause I'm blind.

Uh huh. [ He's wearing a cheeky smile, knowing, but he lets him go with whatever story he chooses, because, really, it's none of his business. It's not his fault if he likes to watch people squirm on occasion.

Banging on the bar to get attention.
] Another round here when you're ready. [ Finishing his drink, he looks back to Bucky. ] Speaking of that curse.

punchedhitler: (Steve - consult my compass)

[personal profile] punchedhitler 2012-06-08 01:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[It's not that he's heckling the band, he's just asking for some Andrews Sisters, and the trumpet player is being oddly stubborn, so Steve is just putting on the pressure slightly more than he usually does, and when the player finally gives it he turns and heads back to the bar.

It's kind of odd to be at a bar and not drink but the Blue Light is like being at home. It's like someone took a piece of 1942 and set it in the City, and everyone who is dressed modern are the people out of place and time.]


Got it.
punchedhitler: (Steve - victory rolled)

[personal profile] punchedhitler 2012-06-08 02:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[Steve looks down at Bucky's empty glass wonders how many that's been, but doesn't ask]

I don't think charm had anything to do with it, Bucky.

[He takes his own drink - a beer because he still likes the taste, even though he can't really get drunk - and holds it in his hand]

hexuality: (afterthought; get in the last word)

[personal profile] hexuality 2012-06-08 04:01 pm (UTC)(link)
[Ginny's been working since Bucky's arrived and has passed by with offhand comments and grins every so often. The evening is busy—in a way that reminds her she actually loves working here, Friday nights draw in the sort of crowds she enjoys—and when there's a bit of a lull in her tables, she swings by Bucky again. This time, it's a hair ruffle that greets him, one arm folded against her chest with an empty drinks tray.]

Anything I can do for you, Buckykins?
hexuality: (amused smile; happiest)

[personal profile] hexuality 2012-06-08 07:33 pm (UTC)(link)
I've only done it once or twice, thank you very much.

[She grins at him, as broad and innocent as can be.]

And I'll have you know I can shove on through loads of things like rules and reputations. Part and parcel of being a ginger and a Weasley, I reckon.
hexuality: (teasingly; brother talk)

[personal profile] hexuality 2012-06-08 08:03 pm (UTC)(link)
I know. I did promise, didn't I?

[She cocks her head, flipping that flaming hair over her shoulder.]

And shush, you love the trouble.

primrosella: (Understanding)

[personal profile] primrosella 2012-06-09 12:44 am (UTC)(link)
[Rosella's around, of course, because Rosella is always around the Blue Light these days, studying the bartenders as they work and pitching in here and there as needs arise, trying to seek out that perfect balance between seeing that things are running smoothly and trusting her employees to do their jobs without her micromanaging them.

For most of the night, she's been perched on a stool at the end of the bar, jotting things onto a notepad and lightly bobbing along with the beat of the music. But when there's a lull in activity around Bucky, she takes the opportunity to come over.]


It's fine music tonight, isn't it?

[She likes the old songs best, too.]
primrosella: (Pleased)

[personal profile] primrosella 2012-06-09 10:37 pm (UTC)(link)
[The thing is, there's a difference between keeping one's distance and giving someone their space, but it can be hard to discern that difference under circumstances like the ones they've been through. She's not avoiding them, not by any means, but she figures it's only polite to let them all settle back into their real lives and entanglements before trying to touch on their illusory ones.]

I do wish they would! [She leans a little on the bar, smiling.] It always reminds me of Blue, when they do. This was the first place I ever heard swing music, too, and where I learned to dance to it. But I suppose it's not really fair of me to always have the music the way I want it, is it?

[Says the girl who owns the bar.]
primrosella: (Yeah Right Sure)

[personal profile] primrosella 2012-06-12 01:39 am (UTC)(link)
Well, yes, I know, but that does seem a bit rude somehow, doesn't it? They ought to be able to play what they like, not just what I order them to.

[That gets a laugh out of her, though.]

But I suppose a bit of your heckling couldn't hurt, either.

[personal profile] waitedforyears 2012-06-09 02:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Amy's only just come in and she's already waggling her eyebrows at him. ] Love the uniform, Jaime.

[personal profile] waitedforyears 2012-06-10 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[ They must look vaguely demented, with all the eyebrow waggling going on there. ] How's everything?

[personal profile] waitedforyears 2012-06-11 08:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. You, too, right? Looks like you are. [ She'll just. Lean against his side, because that's probably comfortable. ]
