[26 Dec 2009|08:28pm] milliways_bar [source_fairy] Sirona is sitting at a table, with a mug of cocoa and a basket of baked goodies she is slowly making her way through, her little Sony Vaio open at something she is giggling at while reading. Quite happy to look up and chat with people, though. 19 comments|post comment

Weekend entertainment. [26 Dec 2009|10:26am] ways_back_room [theflyingsquirl] Wow, crazy-busy weekend. Crazy crazy busy busy. Work on Monday is starting to look relaxing. Congratulations, your pup is now a god! How would he/she like offerings to be made? (If your pup already is a god, what do they like, and how do they feel about inferior offerings?) Alternately, what is the worst gift your pup has ever given or received? 13 comments|post comment

[25 Dec 2009|10:28pm] milliways_bar [notimewarp] [OOM: Tim tries to see if if he's the only one that can go through the door.] The door opens, and a small dog scampers across the bar, yapping excitedly. He's followed by a frantic Tim, who can't quite seem to keep up with the animal. "Colin!" he calls desperately. "Colin, come back!" If he loses the dog again, Daisy will never forgive him. A little help, someone? 16 comments|post comment

Christmas Gifts [26 Dec 2009|12:05am] milliways_bar [spandexed_edie] Edie's got a list, and she's checked it twice, and is giving a few gifts (along with Tony) regardless. Thirteen is given a sexy nurse's outfit, not because she is a nurse, but...because she's got the legs to pull it off.  There's also a nice bottle of wine for her and her girlfriend, along with the Pirate Contessa ice cream.  Coreen and Squirrel receive a jar of condoms (cleverly labeled "Spring Stash" on the jar), a written offer to babysit whenever, and a coupon for a couple's massage.  Though, whomever oils Squirrel up is going to be frustrated.  There's also a sardonic note to Coreen tucked in an envelop along with a few white pills.  Apparently Edie provided a way to knock Squirrel out if things get to be too much in the spring.  Also, there is a bottle of A*Men cologne for Squirrel, since he apparently liked Tony's a lot. Evan Fennel has himself a brand-spankin' new mini-Golden Suit Elvis outfit.  He will be stylin' when he gets up. Jordan Kennedy gets a carton of Desert Sunset with a drawn label of Jordan herself hanging out on a tank, pinup style in the desert.  (Desert Sunset is a peyote-based ice cream, and thus clearly-labeled serving sizes.) She also tucks some money in the fund for the children and the Bound, and leaves various ice creams for them as well (of course, these ice creams are not laced with anything stronger than chocolate).  Sorta like putting change in the kettles back home. post comment

[25 Dec 2009|11:55pm] milliways_bar [3nanashi] Trowa was not precisely planning to come to Milliways tonight. But he wasn't avoiding it either. So when the door opens to Milliways instead of the kitchen . . . The end result is Trowa, with a glass of eggnog (unspiked; probably Bar's idea) and a cookie (definitely Bar's idea), and a seat by the fire. (Nowhere near the mistletoe. He did, however, notice its presence.) 46 comments|post comment

[25 Dec 2009|11:09pm] ways_back_room [gorgonfondness] If you're a friend of any of the Malfoy-Ausa family, you can get your presents here. post comment

[25 Dec 2009|11:07pm] milliways_bar [gorgonfondness] During the holiday season, likely on an otherwise unintentional visit, Mia stopped by the bar and dropped off a nice bunch of presents. There were a lot of people to shop for, so it's pretty apparent that all of it is from the same or at least similar stores. It's mostly winter gear: scarves, gloves, cloaks, sweaters, hats, and sundry other apparel. She had bought the gifts with recipients in mind, but sorting and wrapping everything seemed a daunting task to the mother-to-be. So everything has a sort of signature on it, a magical sign that will strike the person it's meant to go to as theirs. It's more effective anyway. Most everything has a warming charm. (One special exception has a cooling charm.) All gifts have a note that reads, "Happy Holidays from the Malfoy-Ausa family," as well as the Malfoy and Magic Guild crests. 3 comments|post comment

[25 Dec 2009|07:08pm] milliways_bar [hadyougoing] Ava is roasting chestnuts on a somewhat-less-than-open fire. She's not really sure what you do with the chestnuts once you roast them, so this seems to mostly entail tossing chestnuts into the fire and watching them blacken. But she also has eggnog, and has broken out her Santa hat for the occasion, and is currently tying the final ribbons onto an assortment of Christmas bundles. Is one of them for you? (If you're Bela, Buffy, Andrew, Elle, Michael Bluth, or D'Hoffryn, the answer to this question is yes.) 65 comments|post comment

[25 Dec 2009|09:33pm] milliways_bar [post_whitewash] Sam's finally set up with a room of his own, as he and the Bar managed to have their heads on right at the same time. He's not well yet, so Cata's still... well, all right, she's worried. (She doesn't do it often, but this is Sam. She thinks she's allowed that luxury, given how few friends she has.) Tonight, she's at a table, people-watching (and watching for one or two in particular). If she doesn't see the Medic, she'll leave what she's got for him with the Bar. 20 comments|post comment

[25 Dec 2009|03:34pm] milliways_bar [a_mere_child] It took a lot of last-minute work, but Alyx managed to get Christmas presents ready for everyone. Granted, the bulk of those are hand-made Christmas cards rather than actual gifts, but still. They're all stacked on the bartop next to her as she sips a cup of cocoa and looks around for the future recipients of said gifts. (It doesn't occur to Alyx to leave any of the packages with Bar. Christmas gifts, as far as she's concerned, are something to be delivered in person.) [Open forever.] 25 comments|post comment

[25 Dec 2009|10:38pm] milliways_bar [notpuny] "Ooh," says the costumed superhero nervously as he stares at Bar. "Are you sure? I'm not sure about this. Well, if you're sure..." Man, all Spidey wanted was coffee. But poor Peter Parker's part-time (say that five times fast) teaching job won't exactly pay off all the coffee and burgers and last-minute Chinese takeout from the last few months. A bartending shift it is. Neat chalk writing on the specials boards reads: HAPPY HOLIDAYS! Peppermint Hot Chocolate Eggnog (rum optional) --and has an arrow pointing to a bottle of bright green liquor he can't identify. Uh ... that one's for the brave folk only. One Spider-Man standing behind the Bar, then, with an empty mug and a fidgety air to show that he coffeed himself up already. "Get your amazing, spectacular drinks right here! Management cannot guarantee amazingness or, indeed, spectacularity of any beverages served." (Spectacularity is totally a word.) [ ooc: no idea how long i'll be up, but feel free to threadhop with whoever's around! and slowtimed all weekend. ] 11 comments|post comment

Presents! [25 Dec 2009|10:56pm] ways_back_room [arrin] Merry Christmas from Norway, and Happy Birthday to any of you who, like me, happen to share a birthday with the holiday. That said there are presents from Thirteen at the Bar for friends of hers: Coreen gets a set of paints and brushes, along with a written promise to sit still for her for a while, if she so wishes. Squirrel gets a kilt, with a note explaining that now he won´t have to steal Coreen´s clothes again. Edie will find a book of self-defense for women. It´s a joke, of course. Tony, a large poster of Sophia Loren for his room in Milliways. Sunshine gets a large book titled "The Complete Book of Baking" Scarlet, Dot and Guppy will find a bottle of Glayva liquor. There are also three build-a-bear bears waiting for Evan, Alex and Mairi. post comment

[25 Dec 2009|08:59pm] ways_back_room [guppy_sandhu] The Life Support Holiday Party is officially underway over here. Also Guppy has left presents for Atton, Sam, Will, Amanda, Zhaan, Penny, Ginny, Kate Barlow, Kate Bishop, Coreen, Joe and Evan; Thirteen, Lisa and Rachel; Bob, Dot and Mairi; Mia, Draco and Expected Baby Malfoy-Ausa, Doc, Mike, Gus, Charlie, Teja, Connor and Enzo here. Happy Holidays dudes <3 post comment

[25 Dec 2009|08:55pm] milliways_bar [guppy_sandhu] [oom: The Sandhu family celebrate their first proper Christmas, with burnt lunch, a broken tree, but no major incidents, hospitals or deaths.] Around lunch time, the bar gets set up for the Life Support Holiday Party. Lonely? Bored? Hungry? Come join the fun! [ooc: Party behind link, have at! Open indefinitely.] post comment

[25 Dec 2009|07:00pm] milliways_bar [likes_toastems] Needy isn't expecting any kind of a Christmas this year, so when her bathroom door opens onto Milliways (luckily from the bathroom side, so the first thing does is not look for a toilet), she walks through with a veritable spring in her step and happy smile. She's wearing the hat and scarf set given to her by Penny, and although she takes off the hat and stuff it half-into a jeans pocket, she keeps the scarf loosely slung over her shoulders.. it's been her only Christmas present and she expects it will be her only Christmas present, so she's keeping it on. Even if it does clash with her jacket. She takes a seat curled up in a big chair by the fire with a double-pump caramel latte, and kicks off her shoes to toast her toes. This is much better than a skeezy motel room and a ready-meal. post comment

Presents! [25 Dec 2009|09:50am] ways_back_room [mogget_cat] Sunshine doesn't have backroom access, so am using my other pup journal to post for her. The baker of the mostly-sunny disposition has left presents with the Bar for her friends/people she's come to think of as more than customers. They're all baskets of various baked desserts and breads, with blue decorative paper with yellow sunbursts on it. The ratio between sweet and non-sweet baked goods is pretty balanced, unless otherwise noted. Giftees include but are not limited to (since I'm in a bit of a rush and might forget someone): Teja (mostly savory loaves, but with some sweet things) Donovan Jason Schyuler Elizabeth Ned Bobby Drake Axel Thirteen Duck Demeter (mostly bread-based baked goods, rather than anything overly-chocolatey) Sirona Sameth Akito and Agito Jane Austen (mostly centered around chocolate) Ben Wade (everything's sweet. ^__^) Nikola Tesla gets a single, 12-serving pan of Bitter Chocolate Death. Sometimes, even death can be a veiled peace-offering. :D I may have forgotten some people, alas. But I am in a hurry. We are running away to the forest for a few days. ^__^ Love to you all! P.S.: And friends of Yrael will be getting their presents next time he sees them. <3333 1 comment|post comment

More Christmas Gifts! [25 Dec 2009|06:35am] ways_back_room [zeddish] Tim's left some gifts for Mike, Mel, and Ellen. Since he can't talk himself into spending any money lately, he's gone through some of his own possessions and given them to people he thinks would appreciate them. post comment
