Is it green yet

He was done with the beer he had in his hand so when Seleen asked if he wanted another he nodded. "Sure I would like another." And that was when she put that hat on his head. His eyes went up to see the edge of the hat and then he just gave her this kind of look. As she put her arms around him, he puts his arms around her and kissed her back. "Now explain to me why you put that hat on my head." He had a smile on his face as he said that.

She chuckled as she kissed him again. She continued to hold him as they waited for the waitress to return with their beers. "Because you are so sexy, that I didn't want to have to fight the women off of you with a shalaylee." She started laughing again. It was starting to look like she was decorating him like a Christmas tree. Of course, there was nothing that said he couldn't do the same to her.

Manny smiled at Gwendolan. "Would you like a bottle of water instead?" He saw a plastic tiara on the table with all the hats. He closed the small space between himself and the table so he could retrieve it. He stepped back over to Gwendolan's side and placed the tiara upon her head.

Shamus was bumped by Aryanna and he laughed taking a drum from her. And as Emilia came over to him she placed the blue silk ribbon upon his wrist tied in a bow. He laughed. "That's nae where that belongs lass" He laughed some more. Maybe Aryanna would put it in it's right and proper place for him later. She kissed his cheek and he kissed hers in response.

Fia hip bumped Joseph. He laughed as he took an offered drum. He began to beat on the drum with the rhythm of a bag of marbles getting spilled from a tin bucket. The boy definitely had no rhythm when it came to musical instruments. His talents lay else where. Maybe later he could show Fia just exactly where that was.

Keven laughed as Emilia placed the ribbon on Shamus' arm. When she returned to his side and placed her arm around his waist his arm went over her shoulders. He leaned down and with the most wicked of grins whispered to her. "I do hope you have another one of those somewhere, perhaps with a golden border to it. You might just need it later." He kissed her cheek and gave her shoulders a squeeze.

Isah was still standing behind Kyra when she placed their hands in her lap. He brought their hands up to her stomach and squeezed her for a hug. "Nice to meet you Donovan." With their hands back in Kyra's lap he absentmindedly began to slowly run his thumb along her thigh. Their hands were low enough in her lap for the action to still be decent, but it still held a hint of flirtation to it. Even if he was still upset with her, he would never show it in a setting such as this. He would wait until they were alone to talk to her.

Andrew put his arm around Maddie's waist and asked the waitress to bring the lady a shot of Irish Whiskey. "Something well aged and strong." He looked at Maddie with a smile. "Sound good to you dear?" He left his arm where it was. She hadn't asked him to move it and she had been the one to hug him first.

Paul saw the lovely in white walk into the area. He smiled. "Excuse me Venis, Kahn, William. I see a lovely in danger of getting pinched." He grabbed up a green and white boa an a lei as well as a hat. He placed the objects upon the lady with a smile. "Forgive me m'lady, you were in danger of getting pinched." He smiled and headed back over to the three he had been with before.


Ivan took the offered drink and chuckled at Casie. "Let's take a seat and see. V will be bringing us some hot wings, we can drink all night." He chugged both drinks down dropping the shot glass back in the mug just as Casie had done. "You forget my dear, I'm Russian. I can hold my liquor." He laughed as he set his mug down with the shot glass in it. "Waitress, keep em coming please."

While Paul was helping the lovely with her green crisis William leaned over to whisper to Venis. "Know what's missing from this party?" He chuckled. "Shalaylee's. Can you conjure us up some? Unless you have to pull them from Kahn's pants that is." He laughed some more. He wouldn't have cared where it came from, as long as it wasn't another man's pants.

Madeline was enjoying being in someone's armas again, it had been a while since Jono died, and she had been feeling lonely. She also felt like she had a special connection with Andrew. "That sounds fine Dear, will you drink with me?"

He took another stick and eat it as he looked around the room and saw all the people around.

"Pardon my ignorance but why was everyone seeing that song in the first place?"

He just looked at her again as he took another bite from the cheese stick.

Once done, Fia grabbed a bottle of whiskey and 2 shot glasses on her way past the bar. She slipped next to Joseph and poured them each a glass. "well now my wild Irish rover let us see just how Irish you really are. Think you can out drink me?" she gave him a wink, "You just might get a special prize if you can."


Aryanna returned to Shamus's side with 2 pints of Guiness and several strands of beads. She put down the beer and shook the beads "are you to play a little game? The one with the most beads wins."

Tasha smiled as she picked up a cheese stick. She dipped it in the marinara sauce as she spoke. "Most everyone here is part of one big extended family. Not exactly blood, but the kind of family you choose to be with." She took the bite of her cheese stick and washed it down with another swig of her green beer.

She placed the once again empty mug upon the bar top for a refill. She was on her fourth or fifth by now, she was getting a little buzzed, but not quite tipsy. "All the men who are in matching green shirts, they are employees of the Goddess. You have Joseph, who helped throw all this together, he's the Irishman. Over there near him is Shamus, he's the Scotsman, one of the reasons for the song." She was pointing out each person as she spoke of them.

She turned slightly. "Over there, the black man, that is Isah. Now the woman is Kyra. Over at that table over there is William and Paul. The blonde guy with the blonde woman in his arms is Andrew. The Native American guy near them with the brunette in his arms is Keven. The blond woman is Maddie, she's kind of like my niece, you remember her from dinner, without the wig. The other woman is Emilia. Then over there with the Angel, the elf and the other guy, that is Ivan. He's Russian. And last but not least is the Mexican guy over there with the elf in the white robes. That's Manny." She smiled and took another bite of her cheese stick.

Getting her fresh beer she took a swig before she spoke again. "Ok, now those nine men work for Venis and Kahn Jordianthan, right over there at the table with Paul and William. Kyra, the woman in Isah's arms, is Venis' Granddaughter." She had only known it was Kyra because she was sitting at the bar too, and could hear her and smell her. But just like her father, different form, different scent. It just happened to be the same scent as Valentine's Day.

She took another swig of her beer. "Then over there you have Seleen and her boyfriend Shuda Then the Angel over there, that is Jesse, he works for Venis too. He's the manager at her dance club. Maybe I'll take you some day. He's on vacation for two weeks, he's staying in my room, but I think he said he was staying with Casie tonight, something about playing with her kids. That would be Nat and DJ over at the kids party. The red-head with him is Lady Casandra Lightheart, Casie. She is like a sister to Venis. Then there is me." She chuckled as she counted heads to see if she missed anyone.

Now that she had the names all out, she could tie them all together. Well, more than she already had. "Now Kyra's father is Venis' only natural born son, Dreconis Dragonis-Darkmane. His father was Krownar Darkarmor-Darkmane. That song that we were all singing was one of his personal favorites. And he was like part of our family. Well, he was more family than the employee's, Seleen and I are. After all, she did have his child. But Isah and Kyra are kind of dating, in a manner of speaking. Dre's not here tonight. We sing the song because it was sang by the Irish Rover's, because Shamus is Scottish, and because every time we do, we honor the memory of Krow. The Scottish Brujah Vampire." She smiled, but her heart was a little saddened by the mentioning of such a dear friend. She raised her glass and shouted out. "To Krow." Then she took a large swig of her beer.

The beer's were refilled and the eight basket's of hot wings were ready. Venis turned around and there was another person at Casie's table with her. She asked for one more basket. They had made enough that she didn't have to wait. She placed the beer's in the middle of a large tray and then placed the nine baskets of wings around them.

She slid the tray off the bar and balanced it on the fingertips of her left hand. She lifted the tray high above her head. She was tall enough that the only person she wouldn't have cleared would have been Isah. But he wasn't in her path. So she wasn't worried. Especially after Jesse sat down.

So she walked over to the table and sat down the baskets of hot wings for Casie and them. "Here you go guys." She made sure that she took the baskets from around the tray and not just one section. She didn't want to drop anything. She chuckled. "Your wings ladies and gentlemen." She smiled and headed back to her own table.

She set down the baskets of wings and the beers. Then she set the tray aside. She was drinking some of her beer when she was asked for a Shalaylee. She nearly spit her beer all over Kahn. "Well, who said I had to get it from Kahn's pants?" She set her beer on the table and pulled at the belt loop of William's pants. She reached two fingers and her thumb in the waist of his pants.

When she pulled her fingers back out she was holding the head of a Shalaylee. She grinned as she held the item up for him. "Is this what you wanted?" She waved it back and fourth in front of him. When he took it from her she laughed. "Don't hurt anyone now. Or you'll get it used on you" She winked as she returned to her hot wings and beer.

He just looked around when Tasha was naming off people nodding about this person and that person. He was making mental notes about who they were and how they were related to each other.

"I have to say that is one big extended family."

With that he finished off his beer raising it up for the bar maiden to get him another one. He was slowly starting to feel the effects of the beer on him but he would slow down now.

Cas laughed as she heard the elf.

"Yes it has been four long years since I got flowers."

She placed leis around the elfs neck and then around Ivan's and Jesse's they each got a kiss to the cheek. Then V brought them hotwings and green beer.

"Thanks V"

She took picked up her beer just in time to hear Tasha.

"TO KROW"

She lifted her beer and then drank it down.

Andrew smiled at Maddie. "Of course I will hon." He waited until the waitress brought back her shot of Whiskey and then asked for another green beer. He didn't do well with the hard stuff, but this way he was still drinking with her.

Manny asks the waitress for a white wine and gives her back the green beer. As he was standing there with Gwendolan, Az walked over to them. "Hello Az, how are you today?" He released Gwendolan when she needed to go take care of something and stayed to chat with Azlin. He saw Gwendolan bust the kids. He chuckled and nodded for Az to turn and look thinking she might find it funny too.

Isah got a look of worry on his face. "Sure Sweety. Donovan, would you excuse us please sir? Enjoy your stay and hopefully we will see you around again sometime." He held Kyra's hand while he waited for her to get down from the stool. Once she was down he would watch for a moment to see if she was stable on her feet with those killer heels on.

Shamus laughed when Emilia said she couldn't put it in the right and proper place at the moment. Then Aryanna asked him about a drinking game. "Certainly lass." He grinned at her and winked as he joined her. He had to wonder if the little fairy could keep up with a Scotsman.

Keven chuckled as Emilia tied a bow on his wrist with a blue ribbon with gold trim. "Ha, see Shamus, I told you." Of course making reference to some male locker-room type joking that goes on between the men at various times. He ordered another round for himself and Emilia, and returned her kiss.

When the kiss was broken he had the sudden urge to sneeze. He tried to hold it in. He tried twice in fact, but the sneeze won. He did manage to cover his face quickly enough to keep from spraying Emilia with the saliva spraying from his mouth. He opened his eyes after the sneeze and saw Gwendolan standing behind Emilia before he sneezed again.

This time when he opened his eyes Ilúvënis was there too. He sneezed again, still covering his face, with both hands pressed together like a book at this point. It didn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what had happened. But he couldn't say anything. All he could do was keep sneezing.

Ivan chuckled as he sat down with Casie to start her drinking contest. As Cad walked up, Ailylaeli introduced them. "I've met Cad actually, helped take care of him when he was sick. Glad to see you're out of bed man. Doc give you the ok for food and drink?" He offered Cad his hand for a hand shake before motioning for him to join them.

Joseph grinned at Fia when she returned with the bottle and the shot glasses. "Aye, I can keep up wit ye Lass, question is, can ye keep up wit me?" He laughed, the more he drank the less he sounded like himself. He knew better than to revert to his old ways, but he was sounding more and more like the old Joseph. As long as there were no fights, he'd be ok though.

William took a bite out of his wings and his eyes got as big as saucers. Venis had ordered the hot, hot wings. He took a long swig of his beer and shook his head. But then he dove right back in He just hadn't been prepared for the heat.

Paul told the lady in white that she was welcome for the green and then returned to the table. He smiled at Venis, Kahn and William as he took a bite of his wings. He wasn't as shocked as William was, he just happily at them and thanked Venis for getting them for him.

When Tasha had called out 'To Krow.' All the men raised their glasses and called out in kind. "To Krow!"
