So begins...
Lan Varynus's Story
Laughing, Lan raised an eyebrow, "Well, I'm not gonna try and kill you if you try to pet me, so there's a plus there. I'm not quite as tempere... angry as most cats." Damn long words. He could make them in his head. But speaking was getting hard.
Lan quickly ordered himself another drink from one of the server bots, before glancing at Iante, "Can I get you something?" he asked - or more, practically purred. Which may have compromised his refuting of the cat comparison somewhat. "Iante's a nice name too. Irish, right? I come from England, but I've lived here for about five years. You spent long in the city?"

You spent long in the city?"
Lan glanced over Iante's shoulder at Tommy with amusement, before returning his attention to the Irishman himself. "I'm sure I wouldn't mind..." he murmured, winking with a snicker. As the serving robot brought two more glasses of that fun-inducing yellow cocktail, Lan slid one over to Iante.
"Sounds like an er, thrilling job?" Lan ventured, before laughing, "No, I'm not fooling anyone, it sounds kinda nasty. But you're not nasty at all... so it makes up for it, I guess. Enough pretty to counteract the yuck!"
Overt? Not at all...

Lan raised an eyebrow, before pouting. "Oh, well that's no fun." he mumbled. The youth chuckled, "Ahwell. Can't win 'em all, I guess! Hey, pst, how 'bout your friend there?" he whispered, glancing at Tommy, "He looks like he needs cheering up."
Not that Lan was a slag or anything, so quick was he to find a new potential target. What could he say? He was drunk, and that made a normally bad habit just that much worse. Another gulp of the yellow liquid, and Lan's grin started to become semi-permanent. "Also, I'm drunk too, so it's all good. In a bad way. But in a good... bad good way."

"Well, I'm drunk enough that I'll try anything once, so..." Lan trailed off, rolling his shoulders in an amused shrug. To be fair, Lan would normally try most things once, so even without being completely wasted there weren't a lot of inhibitions to lose to begin with.
Sliding off of his stool, Lan wandered past Iante, giving the blonde man a conspiratorial grin, before approaching Tommy and leaning up on the counter next to him. "Hey there," he said, "You okay? You seem a little lost, is all..."

"Hey, hey, hey," Lan slid onto a stool next to Tommy, "You need to relax, 'kay? So you're drunk, you've got a big day tomorrow, and you don't wanna lose your job. That much I got there, the rest seems kinda you-specific." The redhead paused for a long moment to try and collect his tipsy-thoughts.
"But this is Wing City, right? There are people that can restore people from the dead, I bet you there's someone who can deal with a hangover. Or even un-drunk.. is that a word? Whatever, make you not drunk." Lan nudged Tommy in the ribs, "'sides, I'm sure you're boss wouldn't fire you, even if just for the looks." The youth giggled. He really was being awful tonight (as he was every night, but shh).

Shocked didn't quite sum up Lan's utter surprise and speechlessness at Tommy's sudden outburst. The youth opened his mouth to try and speak, but he quickly muted himself as the other man rose to his feet, retreating backwards as far as his seated position would allow as though he feared that Tommy might decide that shouting wasn't clear enough a message.
As the other left the bar, Lan was left with his mouth in an astonished 'o' shape, stunned. "I ... wh ..." he managed as Iante addressed him, before shaking his head. "Uh, I should .. I'm just gonna go. Think that's as good a sign as any it's time to go home ..."

Lan practically flinched away as Iante approached, not thinking clearly in his drink-addled state and feeling rather threatened. "No!" he exclaimed, possibly too quickly. "I mean, no, thanks... It- it's not far. 'm used to making it home a little drunk."
Sliding off of the stool and staggering slightly, Lan blinked away the faintest hints of double vision that had started to appear, shaking his head to clear it. "It's fine, I'm just ... I'm not good with no's. I probably ignored a no at some point in that conversation without noticing it, probably my fault." he mumbled.

"Mkay.." Lan murmured non-committally, "I'll see you around then. Uh, bye."
With that, Lan scurried from the bar hastily. Home and bed were seeming like good options very rapidly. Maybe Daniel would be there... that would be nice.

The setting changes from Gambit's Bar to Wing City
It was the middle of the evening, and at The Press Box, a bar in Wing City's main entertainment district, the night was just starting to pick up. Lan Varynus leaned casually on the bartop, the thrumming music of the establishment playing in the background as a steady trickle of people flowed in. Unlike Gambit's Bar, The Press Box was a stylish place where many of the city's young people came for a night out. Dark but lit by an array of multicoloured lights, the atmosphere was almost like that of a club with extra seating. There was even a dance floor.
Lan was nursing a cocktail, complete with a tiny umbrella, and trying to decide what to do with the evening. He had arranged to meet Daniel here, but a few minutes ago his sort-of-boyfriend had phoned to say he wouldn't be able make it for another few hours. So now he had to choose between waiting around here till then, or going home and coming back.

Lan glanced up, blinking at Linden, "Oh, no," he replied, "I've got a drink, was just hanging around here since the booths are being steadily occupied. Hardly fair for one guy to take up a whole table." The redhead smirked, "So it's no problem."
Idly, Lan's eyes flicked up and down, looking the pretty blonde over. Not bad, his inner lecher mused almost habitually.

"I was," Lan replied, "Waiting for someone, that is. Not an alcoholic." Grinning, Lan recognised Linden's smile for what it was (after all, he used it himself more often than not), an ear twitching in amusement. "He's been delayed by a few hours though, so I'm not sure it's worth sticking around."
The youth smiled mischievously, as if inviting Linden to make it worth sticking around.

"Alright then," Lan said, rising to his feet, "Catch you later." Was it just him, or had that last sentence sounded a little ominous? Probably just him.
With a final little wave, Lan left the bar, already thinking ahead to what on earth he was going to say to Daniel.

Linus Trucidabunt hopped casually off of the train when it pulled into the far busier station just outside of Wing City' Eastern Gates.
He signalled for Carmen to stay close, ignoring the sound of the city beyond the great gate as he prepared the ultimate beeline escape.

Carmen Dellevon followed Linus, reaching for his hand when an especially large ship took to the atmosphere above from within the city. That must be the spaceport.
