- Power Girl has posed:
It was a rather hum drum weekend for many people. Some of them area already blind drunk because they want to forget their worries, and others are just drunk because they can't help themselves. In one case though, she wasn't drunk. She barely cared for alcohol, not that it affected her anyways. She just happened to be here because some of her co-workers decided to have a gathering after work, and they needed a designated driver.
Unfortunately, karen Starr didn't have the courage to tell them that she didn't have to drive, but could fly them in the car to their homes. Nor did she want to. As she was standing at the bar getting her co workers some drinks, she was leered at by a guy at the bar. "Hey toots. those real?" pointing at her chest. "No. They're a figment of your imagination, just like any hope of your pick up line working." She says getting the beers and walking back to her co-workers. "How long are we going to be here? Every time I go up to the bar, I either get a drunk trying to get me to go home with them, or asking me if my boobs are real." 'Well they ARE fantastic, Karen.' "And you are drunk, Harry." She says putting her hand to her face.
- Ares has posed:
Ares walks right into the bar as his human counterpart, John Aaron. It was good that he wasn't really a war-mongerer like his Godhood implies, but instead just a single dad trying to make a better world for his kid-son Phobos (known as Alexander). But, as he approaches the bar, he sees a beautiful woman getting rather harassed by a drunken friend. So, he walks up to the guy, patting him on the shoulder.
"Okay fella, I think you should sit down and let the lady enjoy her drink without having specific parts of her being put into spotlight, yeah?" His voice has a rather interesting Greek accent, and he'll help the man wander off to parts unknown of the bar, before he shifts his attention to the bartender. "Whiskey please, man." eyes then look to Karen.
Holy shit.
"Hi." then he looks back to the bartender. and Ares might be the only man who hasn't looked at her breasts yet.
- Power Girl has posed:
Karen simply waves to the man who says hi and sighs. "My tolerance tonight is very low, buster. So if you're going to hit me with a one-liner and expect it to work, I'm gonna shoot it down faster than a clay pigeon, okay? And yes they are fantastic, but they're mine, not yours."
- Ares has posed:
Ares glances to Karen, and he just blinks at her. "Well, if it makes you feel better, I wasn't." he chuckles and shakes his head, getting his whiskey. "But, I mean...good to know?" he just looks confused now. "Besides, I suck at one-liners. Sorry you were getting harassed." Ares just looks her in the eyes. Her real ones, not her breasts.
- Power Girl has posed:
Thankfully, Karen had gone back up to the bar where Ares was. They're now off in a corner talking. "They're drunk. Alcohol lower inhibitions, so they think that, while they have horrible breath, that they're gods gift to women of any shape. The best they'll do is wake up in the morning with a killer headache." She then looks to Ares and sighs. "Sorry I snapped at you." She then crosses her arms. "I've been groped, called a bitch, rubbed up against and nearly had a beer spilled on me in a vain attempt to get me to take my shirt off. Also had a guy trying to look down my shirt." If Ares looks..it's a T-shirt, and the collar stays around her neck.
- Ares has posed:
Ares sips his whiskey lightly, before he looks to Karen, nodding lightly. "Honestly, I would've already started punching people, but...such is the curse of beauty, apparently. I'm sorry that's been happening to you." he doesn't look, but he smiles. "Well, if you greet people like that, I can see why you've been called the second option." some humor from the God of War, but he extends his hand. "I'm John. John Aaron."
- Power Girl has posed:
"I've been called worse. Actually, being called a female dog would be considered a compliment. I mean, they're sweet, loveable, adorable and cuddly." Karen then sighs and gently shakes John Aaron's hand. "Karen Starr. And I'm only here cuz some of my co-workers wanted to get smashed after work. And they needed a designated driver.
- Ares has posed:
"How nice of you." John chuckles. "Honestly though, I highly doubt they mean it like that, but it's good you're staying positive. You seem to have a lot of these guys needing a ride home. You sure you don't need any help?" John's grip was....MUCH stronger than what she's probably used to. But he does release her hand after giving it a firm shake and he drinks his whiskey some more. "I mean, you //do// look friendly and, according to the last fellow, I imagine he thought you were quite cuddly." Just trying to help her feel comfortable. Though at this point, Ares is looking for guys who look like they want to disturb a lady trying to have a good time.
- Power Girl has posed:
"I try to keep a positive attitude, honestly." Karen says as she leans against the bar. She then holds up a glass of water. "I don't drink. Alcohol doesn't bother me and Water is just as refreshing."
- Ares has posed:
"Well, good for you." John chuckles a bit. "Honestly, alcohol doesn't do much for me either. I just really like the taste of whiskey." he shrugs lightly, resting his elbows on the counter. "So then, Karen, what do you do for fun? and how the hell did you get convinced to be here to drive your impressive number of drunk friends home?"
- Power Girl has posed:
"Cuz the last time this happened, the one that usually drives them home decided to drink as well. And...they didn't make it home. They were lucky they spent the weekend in the drunk tank and not in the hospital." Karen rolls her eyes. "So, I'm sober, and will stay that way. I just want to make sure they make it home okay."
- Ares has posed:
Ares shrugs. "Hey, it's smart. Honestly, I can't really get drunk, so it's never been something I've had to worry about." correction, Ares can get drunk off of that divine stuff, but this mortal liquor doesn't even cause a tingling in his fingers. Regardless, he smiles at her. Uh oh, but he says nothing, instead he puts his drink down and he looks her in the eyes. Though it starts to click. "...you wouldn't happen to be a part of that Starrware place, would you?"
- Power Girl has posed:
"Starrware?" Karen just blinks a couple of times. "No. Starr Labs. We're a few researchers out of that place and some just want to unwind....away from the office and lose themselves to something other than research. I can totally see it too. Not wanting to use your mind for a bit and just....step away. I've done it and felt better about myself for it."
- Ares has posed:
Ares blinks a moment before he aahhss. "Oh! Starr Labs. Nice, nice. Smarty type, I see. But, I can see it. You deal with all the stresses of the day, solving big problems. It's maddening if you don't have a chance to relax and just lose your mind for a night or two in a week." he shrugs. "I've done it before too. It's nice. But, at least it's nice to go to a bar and have good company for a hcange." that's a compliment for her, not the otherway around.
- Power Girl has posed:
"Yeah, but I relax doing other things. Losing control is not somethign I want to do." Karen says softly. "believe me. I don't want to lose control." then one of her co-workers falls out of his chair. "Annnnd that's our cue."
- Ares has posed:
"Well, if you lose control, and you're no longer quite you, then who is? You know, I never did like a drunken splendor, especially since itm akes you look like a damn fool, but I understand that it would be a godsend to someone who doesn't even want to think anymore." he shrugs. He sees a fellow fall out of his chair. "Looks like it." Glancing to Karen. "Take it I'm about to lose wonderful company?"
- Power Girl has posed:
"Sadly." Karen then chuckles. "On the bright side, you can watch my third best asset as I go and help them back to the car." She gives Ares a rather bright smile before she walks her way over to help up her fallen friend, and actually partly carries him out the door. karen waves to Ares as she heads out the door too.
- Ares has posed:
Just to amuse Karen, Ares chuckles. "Why? You're first best is your smile." he then watches her walk off, though he does let his eyes wander to her backside, giving a little smile. Though now he wishes he got her damn number.
GOD DAMNIT ARES.
