That's right, L is back, and with friends in tow.

He approaches the bar, very cautiously. La Fee is not a trustworthy person, no, not at all.

Matt is following happily, looking much better than he did this morning. His hair is still ridiculously messy from all the speeding.

He's also really hoping that at least one of the other two are going to be up for taking a couple of hits. Because, dude.

Somehow, somehow, Near has been talked into this.

He's a little baffled as to how. And somewhat startled that L wants to go to a bar at all, really.

Well, he can always watch the two of them get drunk, right?

[ijk-mno.livejournal.com]

'They have french music,' was one of L's big selling points.

"If I am not mistaken, Aardbei has strawberries in it."

[gamerspy.livejournal.com]

"Eh, I think I'll stick to JD." He grins.

French music wasn't so much a factor for Matt as, well, booze.

"Dunno about you guys, but I've had an awesome day." After the nightmares and everything.

"I'd gathered," Near murmurs, trying not to sound sullen. After all, why shouldn't Matt go out joyriding with his oldest friend?

Except for the part where he'd slept with Mello, and thought Near being involved with him was a bad idea.

Near was doing his best to ignore the paranoia he'd been raised to cultivate and give them the benefit of the doubt. But just because he was acting out of trust didn't mean he could turn off the suspicious way his mind worked.

Oh, what the hell. He'd try one of those fruit beers. But only one.

[ijk-mno.livejournal.com]

L rolls his eyes at Near, and climbs on to a bar stool.

"Near, please avoid smoking anything, even if the proprietess tells you it is not a drug."

He speaks from experience, here.

"I take it you were not sabotaged or run over, Matt?"

Well, after convincing someone in the Sorting Room that yes, there is a dinosaur here, and yes, it is a good idea to change Hufflepuff's name, Turlough decided to wander down to Slytherin for a drink.

Or quite a few, since he thought it a good idea to try one of every fruit beer.

Luckily, his physiology's different enough that he's not drunk yet.

[lady-thujone.livejournal.com]

"I do appreciate your thoroughness," La Fee Verte vamped at him. "Care to start sampling the liqueurs next? I have a dizzying array of fruit cordials."

[vislor-turlough.livejournal.com]

"Why not. Nothing better to do."

[lady-thujone.livejournal.com]

"Try this." She poured him a limoncello.

[vislor-turlough.livejournal.com]

Limoncello's all right.

"Good tasting. Much better stock that what Ravenclaw had."

[lady-thujone.livejournal.com]

"The Ravenclaw bar," she scoffed. "Just a place to chug down swill. Come to the Little Green Apple, La Fee Verte will take care of you."

[garland-briggs.livejournal.com]

Garland had wandered about the grounds for a while, slowly getting his bearings in this large place. Well as much bearing as he could. Some of the hallways seemed to change when he came back to them. He came across the Little Green Apple and decided to take a rest.


He sees the specials up on the board, but asks La Fee, "Pardon me, but do you have any scotch back there somewhere? It would do wonders for my weary feet to sit down for a moment and ponder this amazing school I've lost myself in. Along with the scotch, of course."

[lady-thujone.livejournal.com]

"It is amazing, isn't it, dearie," La Fee Verte said with a slow smile. She reached for the scotches. "Is Lagavulin good for you? I've got others, of course. Unless you'd rather try the real house specialty."

[garland-briggs.livejournal.com]

Garland smiled back. "No, thank you. Lagavulin would be just fine. Better than fine, in fact. Pardon me saying so but I wasn't expecting to find such a superior brand. May I inquire as to what the house speciality is?"

[lady-thujone.livejournal.com]

"Why, absinthe, of course." She gave him a seductive smile. "I am La Fee Verte, after all."

[garland-briggs.livejournal.com]

Garland filed this information away. "Perhaps another time then. I've never had the chance to sample it before, myself, seeing as it is illegal where I'm from. But for now the Lagavulin is perfect."

[lady-thujone.livejournal.com]

"Do tell me if you change your mind. Or if you need anything else."

[400-years-young.livejournal.com]

So this was the Slytherin bar. John liked it the second he stepped inside.

The smells were exotic -he'd have to ask about that- and the bar was well stocked, but the selection of hookahs caught his attention. He was happy to find a place where he could smoke in style.

He'd have to see what the proprietor had available.

[lady-thujone.livejournal.com]

"Welcome to the Little Green Apple! Can I interest you in our spring special?" She gestured toward the blackboard. "Or perhaps you'd like to sample the house specialty?"

[400-years-young.livejournal.com]

"Water for me, thanks," John said. "But I've got two questions: one, what smells so good, and two, what do you have to smoke?"

[lady-thujone.livejournal.com]

"I'm sure all sorts of lovely smells might be tempting you, but if you're looking for a scent for someone special, or to lure someone special, I've a selection of perfume oils." She smiled at his second question. "I have a full selection of flavored shisha tobaccos, and if you'd like something stronger, well, I've hashish and opium blends as well."

[400-years-young.livejournal.com]

"Tobacco's fine," he said. "I'm in the mood for something fruity. Orange? Apricot, maybe, if you have it?"

[lady-thujone.livejournal.com]

"Apricot shisha it is, then." She leaned forward and, with a conspiratorial air, told him, "There wasn't enough to write it on the board, but I've a few bottles of apricot lambic as well, if you'd like to complement that."
