32nd Inning

[freakinblur]

[There's something going on outside 1451 Mitchell today! Two people, specifically Scout and Ema Skye, are sitting at a card table at what looks to be a lemonade stand. Except it's not a lemonade stand. There's a hastily-made, messy sign hanging up front reading "DELICIOUS HOMEMADE LIQ DRINKS, 5 CENTS". There's several pitchers and cups out on

[We may or may not have been walking down Mitchell Rd. in an attempt to scope out Mia's house. In any case, have a classy lawyer eyeballing you from a few yards away.]

Hey! Everyone likes booze. I mean juice. YES. Come on pally, try some!

[glowing_science]

[Ema squints at him for a few moments--he seems almost familiar, but not nearly familiar enough to place.]

Yeah! Come try it, only five cents per cup! It's worth it, trust me. We're not just selling it, we're loyal customers! We know our booze. [Laughs a little at her own non-joke.]

[puzzlerprince]

[Aaaaand cue a very skeptical Riddler walking your way.]

[freakinblur]

ED! Eddie. Sup man. You want in on this. Trust me, man.

[glowing_science]

Five dollars a cup! [Pours a cup of a particularly strong brew and holds it out for him, grinning.]

[puzzlerprince]

[One whiff and Edward wrinkles his nose.]

...the sign said five cents.

[notnicesiblings]

[Wanders over with raised eyebrows]

This seems... productive.

[freakinblur]

Ya! We're in business. The BEST business. This stuff's flyin' off tha shelves. Whattaya say, pally? Wanna cup?

[glowing_science]

Yeah, we're going to be rich! [Or at least able to treat themselves to a nice dinner while still embarrassingly drunk.] And you get a cup of the best booze in Mayfield! Win-win!

Only five cents~

aren't you glad I didn't have Mia see this?

[notnicesiblings]

No, I think I will politely decline.

[magicbloomers]

Oh!

I love lemonade! I'll have a glass, please.

[freakinblur]

[Waves a hand at you.]

Nope! No can do! I said no ta Ai and I gotta say no ta you. Dad says no. No booze fer you.

[glowing_science]

Yeah, Mr. Wright would kill me, Trucy. I'm really, really sorry.

[Pauses in consideration.]

Although you work at a bar back home, don't you? So maybe he wouldn't...

SHH I POSTED THIS TWO DAYS AGO WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT

[rogue_crow]

[Zevran likes liquor, and he's acquainted with both Scout and Ema, so there is no way he isn't check out their stand. Even though he's able to practically smell the cloud of liquor and poor decisions waiting to happen from across the street. He strolls on over.] Only five cents? [Be proud, Ema! Your lesson in American currency was useful!] Is that a reflection of the quality, or simply how much you two have already had yourselves?

Hey, this town is so desperate fer good booze, we gotta make it affordable ta all! This stuff. It is the BEST stuff. Totally worth yer nickle. So buy some.

TOTALLY WAS POSTED TWO DAYS AGO XDb

[glowing_science]

Plus we're kind of really drunk. [Large smile.] It really is good, Zevran, you should try some!

[rogue_crow]

Well, when you put it that way, how can I refuse? [Sure, Zevran's willing to take a risk for a nickel. But if this stuff makes him go blind, he's totally holding the two of you responsible. :| He pulls out a nickel and puts it on the table.] But before I drink...dare I ask what went into this?
