Wastin' Away Again~

Who: Teachers! TA's! RA's! Other graduate students! Other students who are crashing (or god help them, working there??)
When: March 8, 2019, in the evening.
Where: A karaoke bar in Soleil.
Warnings: Alcohol

Sometimes, after tests are done and mysteries uncovered, the teachers need to relax.

Which is why there is karaoke! The faculty of Daybreak Academy have converged, through random inspiration and not a terrible lot of planning, on one unsuspecting bar in Soleil on a Friday evening. A few drinks (or more!) are to be had; however, there is also a stage, with a microphone and a big screen -- which shows a music video for whatever song is on -- and the lyrics. A friendly little green ball bounces over them.

It is time to sing your heart out.

It is time... for karaoke.

[And there are some pretty funny words, like apparently skittles is a sport, not a candy. He leans back, rubbing his face with the back of his hand]

So... y'know, wine's not as strong as it is today, but we still watered it down during banquets to make sure nobody embarrasses themselves, but it certainly doesn't always work - especially when the kitchen staff is brand new.

[Oh, she likes the sound of where this is going.]

You don't say... Think maybe once or twice it wasn't that much of an accident? I know some waiters who can hold a real grudge.

hm-hm... possibly, could be rivalries, like the Italians. Oh now they're one country, but then - the Genovese, the Venetians, and Florentines need very little excuse to pick a fight. So that could it.

[He waves his heads, making a sound]

Aaanyways, we had a Cardinal from one of those cities-states visit us on behalf of the Holy See, and our steward decided water is to... ped, ped - mundane to water down our dark wine with, and decided to use the 'lesser'

[He cracks up, taking almost a minute to control himself]

white wine to water it down.

Hooo boy. [She snickers.] So, how many glasses did it take for mister holy man to start getting a little secular?
