Drabble: "The Night Verdot Died"; Final Fantasy VII (Pre-Game, mentions of Before Crisis)
Just for people's information, Rodney is Rod (male), Catherine is Gun (female), and Rastafan is Katana (male).
The casket rested by the bar as Reno called for another round of drinks.
They were all dressed in black, even young Elena, who was almost old enough to be a Turk. Catherine made sure that her baby sister didn't have anything harder than a glass of punch (she didn't know Reno had spiked it already). Rastafan was sitting between Rude and Tseng, chuckling softly as he pushed up his glasses and nursed his scotch. Rodney sat near his partner, drinking his gin and tonic, when Tseng raised his glass for a toast.
"To Verdot, a great Turk and an even greater man." Many shouts of 'aye' and 'hear hear' followed that statement.
Music and merriment filled the Wall Market bar, and many a man and woman stumbled out the door around noon the next day, all still working on getting sober.
