1st Annual Halloween Block Party!

[iam_senpai]

Perhaps it's the leaves of fiery golds and oranges drifting on the breeze, or the sight of various hard squash being mangled into festive ornaments, or even still the bowls of candy left out simply everywhere in the Nexus that signifies the import of today. Regardless of when you take heed, Halloween has come to the Nexus.

Neat little handmade signs and fliers of all kinds lead to a particularly festive sectioned off block with the Crossroads Cafe at the center. The brick building has more than its fair share of decorations hung from every available windowsill and door. Hanging skeletons, jolly Jack-O-Lanterns, orange and black streamers cascading down and blowing to and fro in the crisp breeze.

The doors are propped open just waiting to beckon you inside. What are you waiting for?

((See the OOC post if you have any questions! Backtagging and threadhopping are fine. Come on in and have a blast :D ))

"Don't mind if I do." He takes the glass, offers a 'cheers' motion with it, and then takes a sip. The cream is unexpected, but oddly balances out the drink well. He's not the type to put cream or milk in his coffee, but this drink tastes and feels all the better for it.

"Interesting," he muses before taking another sip. It's definitely not the sort of thing he would order for himself, but now that it's in his hand and he's given it a fair chance, he's decided he likes it. "You should order another - I think I'm gonna hand on to this one."

Did you like what I did there?

"Glad to hear it."

Natasha smirks and offers the intelligence officer a wink before she orders herself another of the same drink and leans against the bar while she waits for it.

"I know my vodka drinks. Next drink you should order us something from your world."

You know I did =P

"Next drink?" Hughes smirks as he sits down next to Nat. "Are you asking me to 'buy' the next round?"

If so, he's going to have to dig up something extra special to share. Whiskey on the rocks certainly isn't going to cut it after a drink with vodka, cream, and coffee liquer in it.

So puntastic

"It's an 'open' bar, Hughes."

Stressing both syllables of the word 'open' there. She's certainly not going to argue with it. Not that she'd ever indulge enough to actually get drunk. Her job doesn't allow for that kind of negligence.

"I'm asking you to show me something from your world."

"So you're saying you're open to suggestions."

He grins broadly. It's a terrible joke and crosses all kinds of lines, which is why he thinks it's so hilarious. It's ridiculously obvious that he's a dad when he gets like this.

"I'm gonna need a minute to come up with something that's not whiskey while we enjoy this White Russian." Someday, he's going to be sad he missed the opportunity with that one.

He takes a long sip of his drink and then asks, "How fruity are you willing to go with your drinks?"
