The Walk Into A Bar Meme!

The bar's a comfortable place, where everyone knows you just have to walk up, give the bartender a smile, and order up a drink. Everyone goes to a bar sometime, whether to pick up a companion for the night, to pick up a friend, or pick up a drink. You never know the story behind the guy sitting next to you, or the bartender. But that's what bars are for, aren't they? To learn about the guy on the stool next to you, drinking his gin and tonic.

So what do you do in a Walk Into A Bar meme?

1. Comment here with your character and their canon in the subject line.
2. Hit RNG for a number between 1-15.
3. Tag someone else using that number as your character's reason for coming to the bar.
4. Profit!

So, what's your poison?

1. Sex on the Beach - You're here at the bar for one reason and one reason only, to find some company for the night. It might help, to buy them a drink first. But then they might throw that back in your face...

2. Tonic and Gin - Life's been one disaster after another lately, and the only thing that makes it easier is the sweet numbing taste of alcohol...

3. Midori Sour - Your friends dragged you out here and they've suddenly abandoned you for some rock star in the VIP lounge. Are you bitter? Maybe. Or maybe you'll just use the opportunity to flirt with the cute bartender...

4. Shirley Temple - You got a call five minutes ago asking you to come to the bar to pick up your too-intoxicated friend/brother/sister. But now that you're here, theydon't seem to be anywhere to be found...

5. Poolside Pleasure - There's nothing like being on vacation in a tropical paradise, is there? And what better way to soak in that tropical vibe than to swim up to the Tiki Bar for a relaxing fruity drink with a paper umbrella?

6. Moonshine - Maybe you're underaged. Or maybe the bar isn't exactly what you'd call legal. Whatever the reason, you're not supposed to be here, but you are, and while you're here, might as well get something to wet your whistle, right? Just be careful not to get caught...

7. Hair of the Dog - Last night was... do you even remember last night? Probably not, given the wicked hangover pounding in your head right now. Well, nothing cure a hangover like having a drink in the morning to take the edge off, right?

8. Champagne - Something great has happened! Did you get a promotion? Kill your nemesis? Whatever it is, you feel great and it's time everyone celebrated with you. A round of champagne on the house!

9. Shaken, not Stirred - To everyone else, this is a regular bar, but not to you. You know you're here to meet a clandestine contact, an enemy informer or a secret spy. Better play it cool and keep your eyes open...

10. Sunken Pirate Ship - You've been out on the high seas for months, and finally made it into port with your pockets full of gold. What're you going to do first? Drink that gold away or buy some company for the evening? You can do both at the bar...

11. Punch in the Rain - You're the bouncer of this bar and you think the guy sitting next to you has probably had too much to drink. Maybe it's time to cut them off. Hopefully they'll go easy, huh?

12. Bartender - Everyone who walks through the door has a story to tell, and you're the guy they love to tell those stories to. Are you the type to listen, or the type to slip a little something extra into their drink in hopes that they shut up about their sob story?

13. Absinthe - Whatever it is you just drank didn't seem to agree with you. And at the corner of your eye you keep seeing this bright green faerie... Is everything happening around you reality, or have you slipped into some kind of hallucination?

14. 357 Magnum - Did you just insult my mother? Whether or not they did, you sure think so, and you know what's the best way to settle things in a bar? With a bar brawl, of course!

15. Happy Hour - Anything goes! Got another scenario you want to play out, this is the place for it!

He snorted softly, reaching out to settle his free hand on Duo's forearm, touching him just to touch him. "We're a pair of injured, unruly, stubborn, and ill-tempered young men, but sure. No problem," he teased lightly, an almost silly little smile settling on his lips. "I love you," he murmured, like it was a secret.

"I dunno. You've both been kinda sweet and unbearably cute the last few days..." Duo smiled when he saw that smile and couldn't help himself. He reached out, grabbed the front of Wufei's shirt and pulled him across to him.

Before he connected, he whispered those same words." Love you." and then he kissed him. Slowly, deeply and full of tenderness.

He leaned in when he was pulled, a blush warming his cheeks as he heard those words returned, and kissed him right back. It wasn't until they parted that he hummed softly. "Cute and sweet, huh? I'll remember that," he said it like a playful threat, cracking a little grin. "Use it against you when you least expect it."

"Against me? Cruel. I kinda liked it..." Duo had loosened the hand within Wufei's shirt once he had him close and instead had smoothed up up his chest to rest upon the nape of his neck. He tipped his head forward to rest his forehead against Wufei's and closed his eyes. "... And... I'm sorry."

"Nothing to be sorry for," he replied softly, sliding his own arm up to drape it over Duo's shoulder. "Besides. If you wear yourself too thin, then Heero and I get to take care of you, and wouldn't that be a circus?" Hell, Trowa might show up just to juggle in the background and make things even more surreal.

"I dunno. I think you guy's do a good job of it." He smiled, but at the same time he knew he didn't want it to happen. Not because he was worried they wouldn't be able to care for him but because he didn't want to trouble them. Duo was fine with going ham looking after his friends and loved ones, but when it came to himself he still had that mentality of needing to be tough. Boys don't cry. He had to stand up on his own two feet no matter what.

Wufei hummed softly. "Maybe, but let's avoid finding out for as long as possible, okay?" he chuckled, sliding his hand along the nape of Duo's neck. "I promise you don't want to find out what Chinese herbal medicine tastes like."

"Chicken soup is better." Duo replied with a soft sigh, Wufei's hand at the back of his neck caused a shiver to travel down his spine. His fingers were surprisingly cool. "But lets avoid it. You guys need to get better first."

"Mmmhmm," he agreed with a chuckle, and kissed Duo again, slow and lingering. "I'm feeling a lot better already, thanks to you. Him, too, I think. Being alone has been bad for all of us," so it made sense that being together, even if they were miserable, would help.

His eyes closed again as he melted into the kiss, his arms lifting to wrap around Wufei's shoulders. They were in the most awkward if positions. Each sitting on a chair leaning toward each other. When they broke away he was just a little breathless and couldn't stop a laughing.

"Then I guess you guys won't have to be alone ever again." Because Duo had no intention of going anywhere.

It was super awkward, but Wufei didn't give a damn, even if one of his shoulders was cramping up. He laughed, too, grinning and brushing their noses together before pulling away a little, just to ease up on that shoulder. "Better not," he agreed smugly. "Or I'll hunt you down and un-alone us myself."

It made a lot more sense when he thought it in his head.

He laughed. Eskimo kisses? Could Wufei get any cuter?

When he pulled back so did Duo, only his hands moved to gently cup Wufei's face between them. "You're stuck with me, Wu. We made a promise, after all."

He didn't even know what an Eskimo kiss was.

"We're never going to be able to tease Quatre and Trowa again. We're being even worse," but he grinned. "So... any ideas on how to breach the subject with Heero? I was thinking the simple, blunt approach," because that seemed to be the only thing that really worked with him, most of the time.

"Simple and blunt?" Duo considered that and then grinned. "You sure this is the way you wanna go? Because I've an idea but... I just wanna make sure. No regrets?"

Wufei lifted both eyebrows, but he was smiling as he nodded. "No regrets," he agreed firmly. "Now spill, what's the idea?" He knew immediately that whatever it was, it was going to be entertaining if nothing else.

With his hands still cupping Wufei's cheeks, he leaned in and pressed another kiss to his warm lips before he grinned wickedly and let go. He got to his feet and wandered nonchalantly over to where Heero lay on the sofa. He stood beside him for a moment or two, just looking down at him. His smile softened before he leant down and mimicked the move he'd used on Wufei. He cupped Heero's face within the palms of his hands and pressed a soft, gentle kiss to his lips. "Wake up, Sleepin Beauty. We need to have a chat."

Heero was sleeping lightly, cozied up under the blanket and looking utterly relaxed. When he was kissed, he hummed softly and blinked his eyes open, a muzzy confusion making his brow furrow just a little. "Hn?" he asked, all eloquence.

And Wufei couldn't help melting a little at the sight, smiling warmly as he watched. Nope, no regrets. He got up, coming a little closer, but no so close as to make Heero feel crowded while he was waking up.

Duo's smile widened and this time he kissed the tip of Heero's nose. "I said... wake up. You awake yet, Sleeping Beauty?" He sensed Wufei at his side and glanced sidelong at him, winked and then looked back down at Heero.

A little blush crawled up Heero's cheeks, and he nodded a little. "M'awake," he agreed quietly, reaching up with one hand to gently prod at the back of his head, like he was worried he'd gotten hit again while he was asleep.

Wufei grinned, perching on the arm of the armchair while Heero was trying to piece everything together.

Duo cocked his head to the side, grinned and then pinched each of Heero's cheeks. "You're not dreamin. Not crazy. Not even a mirage. See?" He laughed and squished Heero's cheeks a bit before he relented and went back to just gently holding his face between his hands.

"Do you like us?" He asked, still smiling. It was find if Heero didn't of course, but Wufei had said they should be straightforward so he was doing just that. Using Heero-Speak and just saying what needed to be said. No beating around the bush. "Because we like you."

Heero blinked a few times when his cheeks were pinched, all of the sleepiness finally leaving his eyes as he looked up at Duo. He considered the question for a few moments, then glanced over at Wufei. "We?"

And of course got a nod in reply. "We," Wufei agreed. "In a romantic sense."

Heero's blush darkened considerably, but he nodded. "Yes. You kissed me," which he was apparently just now realizing.

"Yup. I did, Captain Obvious." Duo chuckled. "And I'll do it again." And so, he did. Since this time Heero was fully aware of what he was doing. It wasn't nearly as fun if Heero didn't kiss back. But that fuzzy confusion had been too adorable to resist.

Heero huffed out a chuckle, and this time when he was kissed, he returned it with a little smile, letting his eyes slide closed... and one hand snaked out to grab that braid. Because he could, and he knew he could use it to keep Duo close. "I like it," he decided with that sweet little smile of his.

"I'm going to get cavities from you both," Wufei announced with a grin.

Duo went still when his hair was grabbed, not sure what was going on until Heero spoke and gave him that smile. Only then did he relax and laugh then finally moved his hands so he could sit down on the edge of the sofa.

"Guess that settles it." He called over to Wufei. "That blunt enough for ya?"

Wufei hummed, nodding in agreement as he got up and came over, leaning down so he could give Heero a kiss of his own. It was soft and sweet and lingering, just like the ones with Duo had been. When he pulled away, he sat himself down on the coffee table with a sappy little smile.

Heero sat up slowly, smiling a little as he looked between them, then settled his gaze on Duo. "You need a stuffed animal," he decided.
