Da Bar

In the utterly relaxed atmosphere, no one noticed Baze get up surreptitiously from her seat and slip out.

A little later she crept back in, dusting confetti from her hair and smiling. "Yo, Merle! How about another pint?"

Yo, Merle...
Get her a pint of <font color="green">Sierra Nevada Pale ALe</font>. And, bring me one too.

I could do with another pint too please Merle - mine seems to have gone a little flat...

Merle had been dozing on a cot in the back, when Barkeep threw a bucket of water on him. "No sleeping! How many times do I gotta tell you that?"

Merle sprang up, cringing in the corner. "Yes, Master, of course, Master. It's just that things had been so quiet for so many days....."

Barkeep glared. "You have guests. I suggest you tend to them."

Merle loaded a tray with fresh drinks, and took them out to the gang at the table. Then turned to Baze. "OK, what's up?"

*glares at Nommy and Merle*

I just know one of you two did some sort of a time spell. I could swear that stuff happened here in this bar, but damned if I can remember it.

I have this feeling we should be waking up Crash to finish grading papers...

Nomad came out of a Daze and looked around. Something did not feel right and his Key of Light was buzzing. He dadn't seen this in quite some time.


He looked in Asis' direction and got a dirty look. Nomad shrugged and asked Merle for a pitcher of Sammy to get by the next 10 minutes.

"What, me do magic? Heaven forbid!!!"

Merle looked absolutely horrified as he brought a fresh pitcher of Sam Adams to Nomad.

"Now, is there anything I can get for anyone else?"

I get the feeling it's a little late for grading PC's papers.

Never too late for a Sammy though, eh Merle?

YAWN

PC takes a look around the room. Her papers are gone I guess that means I finished them

The gang seems to be a bit dazed. ?mmm what happened?"

Hmmm...Dunno, Prof. I was gazing in this crystal ball, which was kind of cloudy. Then I realized when I looked up that it was still cloudy...everywhere. Wow...

Hey, Merle. How 'bout another Margarita, but please check the tequilla first. I kind of wonder if that bottle you're using doesn't have a different kick to it or sumthin'...
