The Tavern

Nate · 2007-06-06T02:28:59Z

His wife was the first one to suggest reopening the Tavern. Then his friends, and even finally his enemies beseeched him to reopen the Tavern. But it had been so long, and he had vowed to never again be involved in the drink dispensary industry. The mix-up in drink orders on that final day just never did sit well with him. But now Nate stood in front of the old building, refurnished yet retaining all its old charm. The hinges on the door were shot, the floorboards creaked, and the shingle roof owed much to a thick moss. But there was now a new ribbon on the door. As he stepped in, he flicked the light switch on only to discover it didn't work. After a brief interval of opening the windows, he turned the sign over to say "Open: Serving Soda, Milk, and Juice!" Now he just waited behind the bar for his first customer to arrive.

Firepower pokes her head in, looking confused.

"Does this place have piña coladas?"

Meandbooks follows Firepower in. "Why on earth would kidnappers try to burn down the tavern?" she asks.

"Oh, and can I get some hot chocolate with a peppermint stick?"

We're all stories in the end.

I watch the newcomers enter.

"Beats me," I say, then point to the board on the wall. "Now does anyone feel like playing a round of darts?"

Not anymore.

"Sure, but be ready to duck," Firepower warns, taking aim with a dart.

15253 clumsily (and somewhat intentionally) Falls into the middle of Firepower and Esca's game and manages to rip the dart board off the wall.

Oh hi there newcomers, I was just interrupting someone's dart game. Oh did I say interrupting? I meant stealing their drinks and ripping their dart board off the wall. Oh but of course it was on accident

I casually walk on over to where 15253 is and snatch back the board.

"We still need this, thank you."

Not anymore.
