‘’Say Joe pour one for yourself the drinks are on me ,so shall we toast for the dead or the living? ‘’ and that small smile of his crept back at the corner of his mouth.“Okay then, a toast To Lives Well Lived! ” Ade replied, holding up his shot glass, “It matters little if they are dead or alive, just as long as they spread love wherever they went, and improved the lives of others. Sometimes you will never know the true value of someone, until they become a memory.”
Jaris is an average build, long dirty blonde hair that’s kept tightly wound in a knot, walked in after an arduous first shift. He then sat down at the farthest end of the bar and signaled to the bartender to take his beverage order.
“Hey! My Friend!” Ade called down to the officer at the other end of the bar, “Come and join us! We don’t bite! …Well, I don’t! Troy, here… Troy is part Gorn!”
The doctor looked at the new crew man ‘’ Hey come over I may be part Gorn but this here’’ he put a finger on Ade’s head ‘’Is an awful dentist which cannot help the urge to extract perfect teeth....... especially the ones at the front ‘’.
“Come on… Doctor Cross has already lambasted me for complaining about my job, but the fact is that if it wasn’t for Cara Meow aboard, then I’d have no work at all!” Ade replied.
‘’A drink for the young man Joe ‘’ Hunter saw that his glass was empty and moved it across the bar ‘’Fill it up Counselor, whatever drink this is it’s kind of making me euphoric ‘’ and it showed.
Joe smiled and said to Hunter, ” It’s some good sour mash doctor. ” Joe replied. “I’ll not be serving you anything unfit for humans while on the ship as I’m more fearful of Cross than I am of judgement day.”
Joe then turned toward the rest of the people in the bar as he started to pour drinks all around and pass them out. He grabbed one for himself and raised his glass saying . ” This shot on the house! May we all get what you need and not what you deserve!”
“That was a better toast than I made,” Ade told him, “do you mind if I pinch it from you?”
McDuff walked into the room, and the approached the Bar - leaning on it as he waited for the Bar Tender to approach him. At this very moment, the Bar wasn’t really where Cameron wanted to be right, but he had some free time and he was acting on the Doctor’s recommendations.
“Hey Joe,” exclaimed, “You have another customer. It’s getting quite busy in here today!”
‘’Lt’’ Hunter acknowledge McDuff ‘s presence ‘’ The more the merrier especially since Cross ain’t around and leave the barman alone which would leave us to serve the drinks ourselves ‘’.
” Better a big party than a small one doctor. ” Joe said to Hunter. “That way it’s easier to hide the evidence of wrongdoing. amongst the people!”
‘’Don’t bet on it Joe ,knowing the wrath of the Captain he may well throw us in the bridge cell ‘’ the doctor replied, knowing full well what he was talking about.
Jaris nodded at the invitation and accepted. “Thank you for the invitation. I’m Jaris.”
‘’Doctor Hunter ‘’ starting off by giving an introduction with a hand shake while wondering if he had already met the navigator or done his medical.
Funny what alcohol does to the brain“There’s no need to drink that sour mash bourbon if you don’t want it,” Ade told Jaris, “Joe has practically everything, and Troy will always drink it… Did you join the ship at Deep Space K-5? I don’t recall seeing those teeth before! And you are lucky that Cross just left, otherwise she’d pull you straight out to Sickbay, and give you a full medical exam. Isn’t that right Troy?”
‘’Eh what? ‘’ Hunter asked who was about to doze off ‘’Cross ? Who knows what she’ll do … have you ever heard of Jekyll and Hyde ‘’ the doctor was doing his best to keep his eyes open ‘’ That’s Cross ‘’.
“I’m more of a brandy drinker. I’ll pass on the sour mash.” Jaris smiled. “If you want too, I can stop by in the morning for a check up Doc.”
OOC: Don’ forget to put own your name after each post :)
‘’Sure I’m on duty tomorrow ‘’ Hunter replied half asleep .
“Am… nother toast then?” Ade asked Hunter, “Iss… s’your turn this time. Joe, ss…set them up please! Cameron, are you in this…ss one too?”
- Ade, Dentist
The doctor shook his head ‘’No more for me and it would be wise if you stop as well....already slurring your speech’’ Hunter replied while wondering if Joe had thrown in some sleeping pills in his drink for good measure .
Hunter Dr.
Joe then spoke loudly to be heard. “For once and it must be under a strange star indeed, I find myself in agreement with Doctor Hunter. I for one would enjoy someone who was running the ship to be sober enough to do so! So consider the round you have to be your last before your next great adventure! Oh, and for your information tomorrow we’ll have hot strong coffee all day long. ! “
Joe Milligan Barman / Counselor.
Jaris spoke up “Make it decaf for me Joe.”
Lt. Andor
Hunter waved his hand as if there were a couple of flies buzzing around him ‘’Not for me Joe, don’t want to brag but I have bought my own jars of coffee from the station..good quality coffee ‘’ after a pause he went on ‘’Though that darn Cross seem to have become addicted too it and not only that she has the audacity to actually serve my coffee to who ever happens to enter her office! ‘’.
Turning to Jaris the doctor patted him on his back ‘’Wise decision Lt especially since you are due for your medical tomorrow ‘’.
OOC: I have already opened a side sim for your medical .
