*Picks self up, wincing. smiley - flustered*

I'm ok, I'm ok... thank you, Dragonfly. That was meant to be a distraction for you to use, but it kind of back-fired on me. ~wince~

*Peers anxiously behind the purple couch.* What the heck are you doing back there, Kes? The beer is behind the BAR.

Pandora! Thank you for the thoughtful smiley - gift! smiley - hug *Opens box of lovely youth dust. Gives some to Seth for his trip to Lagos* smiley - winkeye

I'll save the rest for the party. Maybe I'll find an old geezer to share it with. *Eyes Kes speculatively...*

Hi Titania! It is so good to see you again! *Gets another <stiffdrink for Titania and a nice large v.t. smiley - stiffdrink for herself*

Hey E... do you suppose they have legos in Lagos? smiley - laugh

Pierre de la Mer ~ sometimes slightly worried but never panicking ~

Uh-oh, major bummer. Did you say that dust would make him 36 years younger? But he's only 32 now, so...

Well, Seth, guess we'll be seing you again in 4 years then smiley - erm

And then you'll be too young to enter this bar for a couple of decades

But don't worry about it. I'll take care of your drinks until then smiley - ok

smiley - pirate
