[ The small boy opens his hand and catches the sliding glass in the palm of it. He twists his face into a little tough guy expression, crinkling his nose and pouting. He pounds his free fist down against the bar twice and gulps down the shot.
The taste takes Bridget's breath away and he feels almost overwhelmed by it, but he doesn't choke. His sense of taste and smell are overwhelmed by something that reminds him of pine trees. He slams the glass down on the bar and stares and Shinji for a minute, eyes wide but vacant and licking the taste from his lips. ]
... Wow. Um.. Wow! Uh..
... That's.. Brilliant! My stomach feels kinda funny now, but um.. not in a bad way! I like it!
[Shinji coaxes a shot out of his temp. bartender and takes it down when Bridget does. The slick burn eases his mouth--he likes the bad taste of it, and he sighs as it warms him on its way down. Good shit. Then he looks over at Bridget and stifles a laugh.]
Er, yeah. Lets keep it at that for now. I can just hear Testament now:
'When I said 'take care of Bridget,' I did not mean bring him to strange bars and get him inebriated.'

Not a big deal though. It's a fine idea.. and she does have those apples coming up. Didn't think of that. Linda won't touch 'em though.
I've got a ton on my plate. How about I temp. you and let you plan this?

I could help out, I guess. Don't put me in charge of anything. Managing the band's hard enough.

Hm. All right, so maybe I'll stick Linda in charge of it. You usually follow her around, so you could just hang with her.

Lets see how tough you are, kiddo. Knock it back.

Would one of the cooks perhaps know of these methods? I would be willing to assist someone with more expertise in cooking than myself.

I'm gonna ask her. Maybe she'd like your help?

Shit. Listen.. Wolfwood just got his chip taken out and he's sick as hell. Fucker didn't warn me.. that's just like him.
Can you watch this place while I go see him?

Yeah, sure. Do you...
[this trying to be caring thing is kinda hard, sometimes.]
I dunno, need anything...?

You.. that's.. thank you.
[He narrows his eyes at Jackie a bit. He can't exactly read his thoughts, but the awkwardness says enough.]
That's all I need. I'm gonna bring him something.. water maybe, doubt he'll keep food down right now.
