( open ) baby i like your style

CHARACTERS: lapis ([profile] onerism), nami ([personal profile] weatherscience), olivia ([personal profile] winces), & company!
DATE: one lovely evening before the 8th
WARNINGS: nami's feminine wiles, lapis' pyro-happy ghost buddy, and olivia's hives... also extreme second-hand embarrassment and possibly some less-than-savory audience members. potential for violence?? maybe???
SUMMARY: lapis, nami, and olivia try to earn some extra $$$ by doing what they do best. chaos ensues.

Whether you've come to the Desert Flower Saloon this evening for boarding or for entertainment, you'll find the first floor practically vibrating with activity and life. On this night, unlike any other before (or so Miz Poppy will proclaim), the saloon's main stage will feature not one, not two, but three new performers, fresh (a week or so old is still fresh, right?) from the far corners of the universe to delight and excite the saloon's loyal patrons with the song and dance and magic of their alien people.

Come! Sit, watch, and enjoy!

A panda, huh?

[He cracks a smile, weary as it may be.]

I hear those guys are pretty cuuuuuute.

[This is less of an attempt at flirting than one might suspect.

Things are easier this way.

Asher isn't new to hiding his insecurities.

Yes, yes...

[ The wave of her hand is as dismissive as can be, not because she's trying to ignore the poor attempt at flirting and more because she's focusing on what he's not saying, the difference between this smile and the ones she's seen him crack before, here or on the network. It's... lacking. ]

Have you been sleeping poorly? [ What one simple greeting can do for a conversation... now she sounds actually somewhat concerned. ] You didn't have to come if you're so tired!

[That's the thing about magic. Whatever physical wounds he's had have been healed in record time, but the scars of each experience still remain in his mind.

Would he have been alive right about now, if he had faced all those harrowing encounters alone? It's been enough to deprive him of sleep.
]

I guess?

[Asher tries to pass it off as something inconsequential.]

Oh, no, no, no! It's okayyyy! Totally.

I'm having fun.

[Sort of.]

You "guess"...?

[ What even is that, you're either sleeping well or not sleeping well... but fine, if he's reluctant to share, she's not going to push!! ]

Are you really? You were just sitting here on your own... hm, oh well! You can drink with me! [ She waves for the barkeep to get both of them drinks (that Asher will just have to pay later on...), no questions asked here. ]
