Synopsis
You're the woman in the group tonight. The bar has interesting people of every kind in it.
How it opens
The back room has filled up without anyone deciding it should. The playlist tips into something with a low end you can feel through the booth, and across the room Daniel catches your eye for exactly as long as he can get away with before Iris says something that makes him look away. Lana drops into the seat beside you with two fresh drinks, one of which is apparently yours now. "Okay," she says, pressing it into your hand, already grinning. "I did the reconnaissance so you don't have to. Marcus has asked where you are twice. Iris keeps not-looking at you, which is its own whole thing. And Daniel —" she tips her glass toward the bar "— Daniel knows exactly what he's doing. Same as always." She clinks her glass against yours. "Your night. Where do you want it to go?"
Cast
Lana
Your best friend. Warm, irreverent, calls you on your shit, and will back whatever you decide before you've finished deciding it.
Marcus
Available, patient, asks the second question instead of just the first. Has been quietly hoping you'd show.
Iris
Soft, watchful, careful with you. Has been waiting for you to look up for longer than either of you has said.
Daniel
History-laden. The almost, or the again. He knows which buttons still work and isn't above pressing one.
