The Party Life (Mod/Open)

[Jay]

Jack sat down easily and seemed to be all but blinked at by the bartender. Why yes he had been to that bar only a couple of hours ago. So what? The bartender in truth was none other than Lyall Zander, who seemed more or less surprised by the fact that the same man from previous had come into the same bar with two women this time. Deciding not to ask, the blue haired bar tender simply looked towards the two with Jack. "What would you like to drink?" Lyall asked rather easily.

"Give them anything they want, but give me the hard stuff," Jack mused back. Lyall was never one for the restrictions on drink and simply nodded before looking at the two women and waiting for their orders.

JASMINE + BENJAMIN

Jasmine sighed to herself as she sat down next to Vengeance and looked at the bar server. She smirked to herself she was never one for anything face, "Just a normal beer." It seemed strange to say that name, in fact the last time she was anywhere near a bar was when she was 21 years old. After she placed her own order she turned to look at the mirror behind the man and saw something reflected in it. Though she jumped almost out of her seat when something greenish came flying out of the wall at her. A pokemon by the looks of it a Misdreavus, but there was something odd about it instead of being purple it was green. Before the ghost pokemon got close though to fully make Jasmine leave her seat a voice called out to the pokemon. The shiny Misdreavus stopped as it looked at the seat next to Jack and saw a gray haired man.

Wicked smirked as he looked at his pokemon as it stayed where it was floating in the air. He gave a chuckle as he looked at Jasmine and his bright blue eyes flashed, "Itake it you don't like ghost pokemon much."

[Maid Melody]

Vengeance looked at the bartender with a stoic expression and sighed.
"Surprise me...as long as it's something strong, I don't really care..."she replied in a monotone voice before she saw something green in the corner of her eye.
Fingering her knife with her other hand, she watched as an...oddly colored Misdreavous appeared, nearly causing Jasmine to jump out of her seat. Vengeance smirked at Jasmine's reaction and watched the Misdreavus return to a man not sitting too far away from them. He seemed harmless enough, but Vengeance wasn't going to take any chances.
"What's wrong Jasmine...it's just a pokemon..." she said, not once taking her eyes off of the strange man.

[Jay]

"Hey man, no scaring the ladies in my bar," Lyall's voice called rather sharply. There were few rules in the blue haired man's bar, but of those, if one broke them, they were asking for a beating. After that, Lyall seemed to look back at Jasmine, Vicki, and then Jack before nodding and going to get the drinks. He prepared them rather quickly and with speed and accuracy only acquired out of too much time being spent learning the task. After he finished preparing all the drinks, the bartender slid them down the table.

Jack nearly laughed as Jasmine had been scared by the Misdreavus. However, Casanova instantly cried out a plea on the woman's behalf which, unintentionally or intentionally, shut BJ up for the moment. Instead, he seemed to look at the drink that was now before him before picking it up and starting to sip at it. "Not a bad pokemon," he commented over to Benjamin before sipping his drink again. He was actually quite fond of dark and ghost types when it all came down to it. They reeked of death and seemed familiar in nature to him.

JASMINE + BENJAMIN

Jasmine looked at the man who had the ghost pokemon, and found his style odd. All his clothes were gray along with his hair, but he had striking almost electric blue eyes. She guessed they were contacts, and just dismissed his odd clothing. When Vengeance spoke she sighed to herself, "I just didn't expect it to be there." The last thing she was going to let people know if she could help it was that she was scared of ghost pokemon. She seemed to relax a bit more when the drinks came back and looked at her. She didn't drink any yet since the strange man was here and she still wasn't sure what to think of him.

Benjamin grinned when Jasmine jumped and that grin only got wider then the bartender scolded him. His blue eyes flashed as he chuckled, "And what are you going to do to stop me?" Threats never worked on Wicked they just went in one ear and out the other. He smirked when Jack spoke to him, and gave him a snort nod. He did enjoy having his ghost pokemon, but he loved having his shiny Absol better. The red furred demon was his prized pokemon. Deciding to start a conversation with the people, "So is this just a friendly workplace party thing, or are one of you going to end up dead in the morning?"

[Maid Melody]

Vengeance took her drink and sipped it without a word when it was brought to her, sighing as the stinging pain immediately dulled. Looking back at Jasmine with her drink still in her hand, she nodded. Apparently it was normal for some people to be afraid of ghosts in general and ghost pokemon were no exception. Truth be told, Vengeance rather liked Ghost pokemon, they could easily sneak around without being spotted, something that made them an asset when stealth was needed.
Hearing the man speak again, she looked back at him before sipping her drink once again.
"Only if that dead person is going to be you...none of your business..."she replied in a monotone voice. Despite the fact that she had only known Jasmine and Jack for a short time, Vengeance had very little patience with strangers prying into other peoples' business when it was obviously not their place to question it to begin with.

[Jay]

Lyall walked down the bar a few paces and finally stopped in front of Benjamin. "Refill?" he asked more or less as he stared at the glass that had already been on the table. There was a rather sweet smile on his face as if he were more or less asking about the weather rather than anything else.

Jack let out a laugh when the man with the ghost pokemon had asked about why they were there. "More like me just having a few drinks with my girls," he laughed again rather easily before sipping nearly all of his drink right then and there. Catching sight of this, Lyall mentally sighed and wondered if he would have to throw someone out again. He knew enough drunken fights to know what stupidly caused them. Jack, on the other hand, was on a rather new buzz thanks to the last drink and had forgotten his headache from before all but entirely. Turning back to Jasmine and Vengeance, he smirked back again at Benjamin.

[Ryder]

JASMINE + BENJAMIN

Jasmine narrowed her eyes on Benjamin for a few seconds when he spoke and then turned her attention back to her own drink. Taking a few sips she set it back down. She rolled her eyes when Jack spoke and grasped her glass harder then she had been before.

Benjamin only chuckled when Vengeance spoke and looked at his pokemon. "Thats not very nice to say woman." When the bartender came back he smiled lightly, "No, I'm fine." Looking back at Jack and the rest of his group he smirked. Looking at his own empty glass he smirked and looked back at Spook as the ghost type had left to float around the bar. Folding his arms in front of him he grinned to himself. When Jack spoke he grinned again, "Ah so there yours."

[Maid Melody]

Vengeance heard Jack refer to her as one of 'his girls' but chose not to react to this and instead sipped more of her drink which was already half gone. There stinging sensation that had pained her earlier was now was replaced by a buzzing in her brain that seemed to break down the walls that held her emotions in check. With these walls down, she felt anger surge towards the men that had dared imply that she was an object and not just a person.
"I am not his woman...nor anyone's woman for that matter. I am not some piece of property you can bargain for." she replied in a rather cold tone of voice before sipping her drink absent-mindedly as she had been since she'd gotten to the bar.

[Jay]

Jack looked back at Vengeance for a moment before chuckling to himself. "Who ever said that?"he asked back meaning the object words from Vengeance before taking a sip of his drink and looking towards both women. "You're the ones that came with me," he chimed rather happily.

Lyall sighed dryly and began to clean the counter with a single rag as he went keeping an ear open on the conversation even as he went. The blue haired man stared at his reflection in the counter before looking up again and finally realizing where he had seen Benjamin before. Ugh... I should throw him out... but he paid good money.... went through the blue haired man's mind, and he simply continued to work.

[Ryder]

JASMINE + BENJAMIN

Jasmine was to busy thinking to herself to notice what Benjamin had said about Jack being with them. If she had heard his words, there was a high chance there would have been a fight right then and there. Looking up from her drink she looked at the clock on the wall making sure that she didn't let herself stay out to late.

Benjamin smirked when Vengeance spoke to him, "Could have fooled me." The thing was every time he went to a bar he was just looking for a fight. He loves to taunt others to get them freaked out or riled up.

[Maid Melody]

Vengeance's anger subsided slightly when she heard Jack speak and for a moment she berated herself for allowing herself to be taunted so easily. She had been trained to be rid of her emotions just for these sort of situations, but the only logical explanation was that the alcohol was disrupting her ability to do this. Hearing the man speak again, she felt her anger flare up once again and gripped the glass in her hand until her knuckles turned white, trying not to rise to the clear taunt.
Closing her eye, she took a deep breath and relaxed a little, seeming to once again become emotionless when in reality she was just barely holding in her anger. The only evidence of this however was her white-knuckled grip on the glass she still held, sipping the drink from time to time as if she hadn't heard Benjamin in the first place, or refused to acknowledge that the man was still there.

[Jay]

"Aw man that's not cool," Jack answered Benjamin turning his head as head said this. "Don't taunt the lovely ladies~" Casanova was throwing a party and all the other persona were extremely pleased with alcohol including Ripper who was subdued at the moment by drink.

Lyall sighed outwards not saying anything for a moment before starting to his rack behind the counter and going through several different things at once. However, his mind and ears never left the conversation that his bar guests were having.

[Ryder]

BENJAMIN WICKED

Benjamin smirked to himself as he watched Vengeance grip the glass in front of her. He didn't say anything back to Jack only kept his blue gaze on Vengeance. She was interesting, and he was wondering why she was holding back so much. "Why do you hold back so much woman, you scared of something." He kept his arms folded as he watched her and the girl sitting next to her.

[Maid Melody]

Vengeance calmed slightly when Jack stood up for her and actually smiled at him. For a moment, she relaxed her grip on the glass and sipped it, draining the last drop of her drink before setting the glass back down on the counter.
"So Jack, what made you suddenly want to bring us here?"she asked in a rather...pleasant voice as she placed her elbows on the counter and rested her chin in her hands.
Hearing Benjamin comment, once again calling her woman something inside Vengeance snapped and she once again closed her eye and seemed to once again become emotionless. Her training was still in the back of her mind and no taunts could get her to rise to the bait and respond the way man was obviously trying to get her to do by such a reply. Taking a deep breath she slowly breathed out and once again managed to control the angry reply that had been just about to scream at the man for even daring to say that she was scared. What did he know anyway, he knew nothing of her life...

[Jay]

Jack seemed to yawn a moment and leaned forwards on the bar ignoring Benjamin now. "Why not?" he asked rather dryly for a moment as his happy visage somewhat dulled to something more tired looking. He'd been up partying for a while now, and not even the buzz that was continuing in the back of his mind could really do much at that point. Casanova was seething at Benjamin, and Ripper was already planning the easiest way to kill him, yet Black Jack Spade himself was not listening to either of them.

Lyall sighed a bit and shook his head before looking towards Jasmine and Vicki again. "Do you need a refill?" he offered lightly.

[Ryder]

JASMINE ROSE

Jasmine sighed when she saw Benjamin look away from them. He seemed to lose his interest in them since they weren't reacting that much to him. Jasmine had gone into her own thoughts in order to keep her temper down and she was glad that it worked. She shook her head when the bartender came back though, she didn't want to drink to much.

[Maid Melody]

Vengeance nodded at Lyall and looked over at Jack.
"So what did you have in mind when you brought us here...?" she asked in a pleasant voice as she waited for a refill on her drink.

[Jay]

Jack raised his eyebrow at Vicki wondering if the martians had finally taken and replaced her with someone far more relaxed than normal, yet after a moment, he simply laughed back rather lightly. "I wanted an excuse to drink more that's all," he answered back mildly lying and mildly telling the truth. "And it's more fun with women. Hey you Silent over there," he stated looking over at Jasmine now. "Lighten up and talk~" Lyall moved and refilled Vengeance's cup with ease before moving down the bar again.

[Ryder]

JASMINE ROSE

Jasmine looked back at Jack when she heard him speaking to her, and smirked to herself. The major reason she had stayed silent was because of Benjamin. He was clearly looking for a fight, and Jasmine was the type that would get into a fight so she had just blocked out everyone. But at least he had moved on, "and why is it more fun with woman?" Raising an eyebrow at this she looked at Vengeance for a few seconds.
