One Too Many Ale's [Open]

[Kovu]

Time: Early Evening

Kovu leaned up against the bar an empty glass in his paw. Looking back at the bar the tom could see three or four more empty mugs. With a slight growl he popped the glass up onto the bar and nodded towards the bartender for another. With a huff from the bartender the grey and silver tom got a new glass full to the brim with the amber liquid. His tail tip twitched back and forth as he scanned the bar it was full of cat's dancing and singing. Most of wich were just as intoxicated if not more than the tom. He had built up a tolerance for the ale yet after five and a half he felt funny. Everything looked odd and his paws felt heavy if he tried to speak at all Kovu knew the words would be slurred and almost un-audible. He shook his head trying to clear his vision yet it remained blurred at the edges.

All the cats in the tavern seemed the same smiling and dancing around with sloppy paw steps. The tom rolled his shoulders and chugged down the remaining amber liquid in his glass. He put the empty mug up on the bar and continued to look out at the full tavern he wanted to see someone who stood out someone who might be interesting to get to know or just talk to.

((OOC: May I join? My character is this tavern's owner, Avery~))

Avery always tended the bar, even on nights like this where the Help scurried around serving more drink and food than they could. The tavern was old and the drink was foul from being made in the cellar stills. Sighing Avery looked around and noticed the cat that had just recently ordered a drink for the sixth time gulp it down in one go. Rolling his sickly pale eyes, he sat down at his bartender stool to get off his pained legs and waved his splinted foreleg in greeting. Before going back to watching the drunks dance.

((Definatly join!~))

Kovu had noticed the bartender rolling his eyes. For some reason this enraged the usualy docile siamese. With a growl the tom moved along the bar to stand infront of Avery. "You got a problem with me?" His growling tone was slurred by all the ale he had ingested. The tom had both his paws on the bar and the fur around the back of his neck was rising. Kovu wasn't the type to usualy get into fights but after drinking a few to many ale's no one knew what he would do.

Avery stiffened at the dark tom's words, his crooked tail sweeping the floor faster than before. "No, I have a problem if I have to drag you outside because you passed out drunk." He stated, leaning over the bar with a gesture towards the severe amount of mugs next to the dark tom. "You not gonna pass out, eh?" Ave question as his claws dug lightly into the bar, ready to jump over it and run if the dark tom was a rowdy drunk.

[atrb=background,http://i1138.photobucket.com/albums/n533/KitsaniCat/Kovumiddle.png] Kovu stopped and thought about this for a minute and in his drunk mind he came up with a conclusion. Ofcourse what seemed like a few seconds of deliberation to him looked like a minute of him standing there and starting to drool a little. Whiping the drool off his face with a paw he looked at the bartender again. "I might, I might not." He meowed in a slurred tone then spinning around to face the rest of the cat's in the tavern. Yet he spun a little to fast and with a little to much ale in his belly the siamese's head started to spin. It didn't take him long before he was laying on his back trying to remember how his legs worked.

Avery chuckled from his place at the bar, claws relaxing from digging into the bar as he watched the drunkenly witless tom fall to the dusty floor. "Yes, I can see that happening." He stated sarcastically as he walked towards the floored drunk and leaned over him on painful,brittle rear legs. "No more beer for you son." He chuckled as he gestured for one of the bar-keeps to help the drunken tom to his feet. Knowing that he wouldn't be able to lift the drunk to his feet.

[sinara]

A hooded cat hesitantly held herself back, crouched in the depths of the shadows; she had been watching the whole scene between Kovu and the unfamiliar tom. Kovu? Picking a fight? When he was drunk? Psh! What had been going through the young tom's head? She shook hers in disbelief. Seeing the silver and gray Siamese collapse in a heap, she rose to her 'Dancer' toes, emerged from her hiding place, and padded forward until she reached her fallen friend. Her tail flicked, and shyly, the dark furred she~cat mewed,"I apologize for my friend, sir. .." A sigh escaped from her parted lips,"He isn't usually like this, but I suppose the ale's got to him." She eyed his slightly trembling, hind legs and couldn't help but notice the stiffness and pain in them. But moments later, she shook her head, and hunkered down beside Kovu, gently laying a paw upon his hot forehead, before warily reaching out a friendly paw towards the tom to gesture a handshake. "I'm Sinara, best dance in Gwiellan, by the way. And you are?" Her pretty, deep blue eyes shimmered from the darkness of her purple cloak's hood, reflecting the stars and lantern's soft glow.

[atrb=background,http://i1138.photobucket.com/albums/n533/KitsaniCat/Kovumiddle.png] Kovu glared at the tavern keeper from his place on the floor. Only giving him a cheeky grin as he tried to get back up on his own the only thing he accomplished was to flail his limbs. He sighed when the she-cat named Sinara approached. This was just what he needed now someone to appologise for him. Usualy he would keep his trap shut but in this situation with all the ale stuck in him he was too intoxicated to tell the difference between what was in his head and outloud. "Yeah, because I need you to cover for me." He growled from his place on the floor. If he were intoxicated or not Kovu had alway's hated it when people spoke for him. When the she-cat introduced herself as the best dancer in Gwiellan the tom took it a little to personaly. "Yeah right" He scoffed having no preception of what was right or wrong to say. "You just keep telling yourself that hun." The siamese would come to regret saying this later but for now he was relentless and didn't give two hoots about Sinara's feelings.

((OOC: Avery don't like people, he's been serving drunks all night. Plus he's a smarmy and low class person. XD ))

Avery sniffed trying to keep his face blank despite meeting what he thought seemed like a rather snobby she-cat. 'Well, snobby usually means rich and royalty.' He thought as he scrubbed one of his boney paws over his face. "Avery, The World's Brittlest Cat" he stated, keeping one eye on the currently rather drunk tom who suddenly went into a rather spiteful, drunken slur. Causing Avery to sigh as he threw his paws in the air, his patience for the drunken running thin.

[sinara]

{ OCC: Is he always judgemental like that? XD She's anything but snobby. ^^; }

Sinara frowned and cuffed Kovu on the ear, but as always, it probably didn't hurt as much as she wanted it to. No claws. Hearing the tom's mutter, it was enough to make her want to slap the ole' tom, but she didn't have many friends, plus she wasn't here to make enemies. "Pardon?" she meowed rather harshly,"You really think this is rich and royalty?" She gestured to her few possessions. "Ah, forget it." Her tail flicked sharply as she sighed with defeat. "Just. ..nevermind." Her tone softened a bit. Then, out of the blue, she grabbed Avery's arm and half dragged him to one of the seats of the bar, thumping his rump down. The Dancer padded back to also drag Kovu and set him slumped dangling in a seat. 'I don't know why I even do this.' She mewed in her brain, but the Siamese inspected the tavern-keeper's aching limbs and started to firmly press her paws on them. "Does it hurt?. ..Avery, the World's Brittlest Cat?" She sent a slight smile at him through closed eyes then began to massage the stiff, tense joints with her toes and turned it around in tight, small circles in an attempt to relieve the stress.

[falconkai]

((OOC: Sometimes, plus he is rather low-class in his dealings, ie, he likes letting murderers sleep in the cellar. So generally he's judgemental and suspicious about others.))

[atrb=background,http://i1138.photobucket.com/albums/n533/KitsaniCat/Kovumiddle.png] Kovu growled as he was cuffed over the ear by the she-cat. The dark tom sighed as he listened too Sinara and Avery bicker. He was slightly suprised when the she-cat dragged him over to a seat and sat him there. He wanted too snarl something at her but he couldn't think of anything to say so her so he just growled. Kovu slumped over resting his paws on the bar. The affects of alchohol starting to ebb away. He grumbled looking around noticing that the two cat's who were 'babysitting' him were now both occupied with eachother he picked up his drunken self and scampered back into the crowd of cat's that flooded the tavern. Figuring that he could probobly find a drink out there somewhere.
