🎈GET YOUR ASSES TO OLIVE GARDEN🎈

Sometime in the morning on Sunday, there are little notes that have been slipped under everyone's doors. Written in markers reads the following:

Let's celebrate getting Knuckles back at Olive Garden tonight at 6pm!!!!
Also I'm bored
-Percy

…Yeah………but hey, at least these notes will be customized! Each note has two characters, but, uh, these might not be accurate to who's actually in the room. He doesn't know who everyone's roommates are, so he's just hoping for the best I guess. (Someone's note includes the new guy, More. Shizuka is also on one of these as a pink dolphin with glasses.)

Anyway, the Olive Garden seems to have some balloons floating around. With the current state of the residents, nobody seems to care! There are also chefs in the kitchen who will make whatever you ask, but pushing them around enough will get them to leave the kitchen to anyone who wants to make something. (Thank you Redd.) Drinks are available for everyone, alcohol and regular soft drinks alike, and really? The world is your oyster. … Olive? You get the drill.

Maybe a little, but it's never too late ta find out fer sure!

[Raven just interprets it as More not having had a drink in a long time. He's absolutely here for his willingness to partake no matter the situation.

He slides into one of the seats and passes More an empty glass. The wine is quick to follow as Raven fills both of their glasses.]

This here's the classic red wine they've got on the menu. Nothin' too crazy, which is actually perfect fer someone lookin' ta get back into drinkin'.

[He holds up his glass and winks as he takes a sip. He's curious to see what More thinks!]

[akademise]

[ It's... not entirely wrong to say that it's been a long time since More has had a drink, solely because it's been a long time since he's consumed anything except for one singular neverending pot of tea in one singular flavor.

So he's not going to argue and instead take a slow sip of his own glass, even closing his eyes as he does so. ]

Ah... a nostalgic flavor.

[ Most flavors would be nostalgic to him. But he's smiling, clearly pleased with the experience. ]

You appear to be a wine enthusiast, then...?

[reallyfishy]

[He grins, satisfied that More likes it.]

Looks like you've had a passin' interest, at the very least!

As fer me, I'm not actually picky about what alcohol I'm drinkin'. It's the experience that's more important. [AKA the getting drunk part, but he doesn't go so far as to say that aloud.] This place had a bunch of different wines, so I figured I'd do some samplin'.

[akademise]

A wise decision, if you ask me. It is important to be open to many different experiences... or tastes, in this case.

[ Is More actually not catching onto the fact that Raven has a potentially unhealthy relationship to alcohol or is he being nice about it? Hard to tell right now. ]

I do enjoy the atmosphere of a tavern, also. There is something soothing about a large variety of people coming together like this.

[reallyfishy]

[It's fine, neither of them need to look too deeply into Raven's relationship with alcohol. Talking about taverns is way better.]

Oh yeah, I'm with ya there! Nothin' beats goin' to a tavern ta take a load off after a hard day's work. Lots of great people-watchin' potential.

These occasions also pose a fantastic opportunity to get a feeling for a new place.

[ More doesn't have any detailed memories of it, naturally. But he has a feeling he used to enjoy that first night in a new town, sitting in a corner booth and listening to the locals. ]

Which is why I feel quite fortunate that this get-together was hosted so soon after I arrived here. I felt like a stranger in the warehouse, but strangers can become companions soon enough in an atmosphere like this.
