Maybe. But they would require the sacrifice of another. And, this little morsel did not harm me. Now, if you'd asked for a body's worth, that may have been something I could not fulfill.

Blouses nonchalantly walked into the establishment. He looked around the place, examining the area.

Axel shook his head, "Children these days. You really should consider yourself. I don't need to drink human blood..."

He looked over the man again, "I do not require your body's worth. Drinking to the last drop is poisonous for someone like me, especially if the person dies before I can finish it."

*notices the new arrival* Were they short on clothing, ordid a sword catch you juuust right?

Axel, I'm not so knowledgeable of you or your kind, keep that in mind. I saw a need, I fulfilled it quickly and efficiently.

"The people as a whole will be fine. Of this, I am certain. Let us not speak of the nitty-gritty of politics here, though. It tends to sour the drink."

It sours many things, that it does. In the meantime, I must say it is good to see neutrality these days...

Axel nodded, "I am alone, as it were. Just keep that in mind."

That I will. Anything more upbeat to speak of? Thrilling victories, personal bestings, kicking a Loya-er...I mean..

Another figure wanders in and chuckles. "Kicking a Loyalist's sorry tail is upbeat enough for me."

"There is a difference between being neutral and just not caring, though. I'm simply one of those who can't make up my mind," she said with a smile before taking another swig of her drink. "Your brew has a nice, full flavor to it."

Espy chuckled, amused, at the bartender, who was no more good at lying than her brother was.

-spins around-

Yay, or nay?

It is good to hear you like it, Reyoki. When you must go, tell me. You can take a bottle, share it with your...eh...comrades.


Ah! Hello, Elfafa~! Always a treat.

Espy, welcome back *punches shoulder playfully*

Batty, always yay

*smiles at Batty* Yay indeedhah.

You as well, Hermfafa. *nod*

Might I offer you a drink, Mistress Elfafa?

She chuckled again at the anti-Loyalist air about the room. "Yes, I know you're not fond of folks like me, but I mean no harm while I'm off-duty."

Cor. Spying on the Loyalists....they make me want to puke.

Well, Espy...do as you will?

Reyoki, I may not be fond of your side, but a living being is a living being. I would rather see you live than die, join us than lose to us. You see?

I'm afraid not, I'm a bit of a... ah, lightweight.

The woman nodded at Reyoki. "Aye, I wouldn't lay a finger on any of your comrades outside of the battlefield myself, but it's still amusing to poke a little fun."

"Nah, some tonic would help right around now."

(Also...is it just me? my avi looks tall.)

(It looks tall because of all the Vert. Your wings and..uhm...Katar, yes? The armblades? Fall in a Vertical form, you are wearing vetical strips, your ears point up, etc. Vert~)

*pours some for Espy* Enjoy th drink.

Elfafa, not even a non-alcoholic, eh?

Ah, no thank you Hermfafa.

Walks into the bar and looks around to those within it, 'This is a suprise' she thought to herself seeing everyone joking as if there wasn't a war going on. Closing her eyes for a moment her hand would go to her mask and fix it a little she was a little worried as earlier she hadn't been wearing it and her face had been seen. Feeling safe she moved to the bar and looked to the barkeep "Water please" she felt like such a child going into a bar and asking for a soft drink

(Eh, that's true. Forgot about the reason why I don't like wearing stripes, usually. I'm already short enough.)

"Thanks." Espy reached for the drink and gulped it down. A few hours of flying was...tiring.

You are quite welocme.

And...yes, of course *pours and hands Chasm a glass of water*

"I understand your sentiments, Hermes, but betrayal isn't something of which I'm very fond."

She let out a full laugh at the poking fun comment. "Maybe so, but I'm not about to be poking fun at you Rebels when I have no one to back me up."

If any argue with you for poking fun, they'd be hypocrites, aye?

She couldn't help but laugh as well. "You do raise a good point there." she then nodded at Hermfafa. "Indeed, if we do it you can as well though."

The woman smiled gently at the newcomer, approaching her calmly. "You look battle-hardened, comrade."

Took the water and nodded "Thank you very much" she say in a quiet yet respectful tone, hearing the girl next to her speak she blinked "Betrayal comes to all miss" she say as she passed by to a table near by as always she was graceful on her feet every step with purpose and meaning. quietly she sat down placing her glass on the table she watched as the drops of condensation ran down the outside of the glass "Loyalty is what you make of it" she whisper

All this talk of loyalty, politics, war....and not a single drunk in the place. Something is very wrong here. *chuckles*

The woman bowed her head slightly. "Aye, this is true." However, she couldn't help but laugh at the bartender's comment. "It would certainly be amusing to have at least one I think."

(Espy keeps a decently clear head. Storm, on the other hand....)

(is rather stormy? XD)

Well, Elfafa, this IS a bar o.o

Kept her blood ruby eyes on the glass "It is the topic on everyone's mind... it is no wonder people are talking about it and even questioning it" she say her head tipping to the right as she touched the ice cold glass once more "But you are correct a bar with out a drunk makes it seem more like a social club for pre-teens" she smile under her mask

Bar schmar. I'd like to order a peach lemonade.

That or a rest stop. Hopefully the latter is more true. I do think a bar is a place unfit for preteens XD


Aye, Peach Lemonade it is. *mixes, pours, makes one for myself* One for you, and one for me too~

"Maybe we should stop talking and start drinking, then?" Reyoki said before taking another swig. Her pint was beginning to get low now, but she wanted to relax a tad more before returning to her Knightly duties.

"I'm aware of that hun, which is why there should be one." She laughed.

Then make one? ;3

*pours more in Reyoki's mug* Less potent, just as tasty. Rest a bit longer?

Moved one of her blood ruby orbs to the person drinking alcohol "Are you sure you will be able to fight tipsy miss?" she would inquire her voice showing no hint of aggression but she did find it interesting that she would be drinking when she could be called upon at anytime, her eye would fall back to her glass as her hand went slowly touch her crystal 'I must remember, I must not forget... I have to see him at the end' she thought to herself, she hated this she wanted to go back to before this all started but there was no way to do it, so she needed to press forward
