Stepford Cuckoos has posed:
It's a rather plain kind of Monday, the holidays have wound down and the average person is getting back into the swing of life. The clubs are starting to get patrons back in them looking for a good time, whatever that may be. Tonight the quintuplets have made their way to P3, looking for such a time themselves.

Piper Halliwell has posed:
Piper's behind the bar...as per usual and she's looking like she's bored. The club's filling up, but the stage is empty. Piper is bored, not just looking it. The heating's on, and she's just...blah

Looking over the club again, Piper's watching everyone. The quintuplets draw her interest, she's watching them quietly, then leans on the bar as if watching them closer, though there's no malice in her gaze at all. More honest curiosity. She's not booked anyone for tonight

Stepford Cuckoos has posed:
The young women seem to move like a herd, not like the average groups of blonde girls that come into the club, no they really do move as one. The girls move in unison towards the bar and the front most girl steps up and holds up her fingers, "Four sex on the beach." Sophie requests. At least they aren't all drinking.

Piper Halliwell has posed:
Okay. That's curious how they move as one. It's faintly creepy...but given Piper's occupation, and just what she fightss...she's not too worried. The drink order though gets a raised eyebrow. "Well" she starts, making the drinks. She's a smartass. She's not that much of a smartass and lewd to pull anything that crazy. Instead, four drinks are made. Piper slides funky striped straws in them, and relaxes some. They're not that bad. They bought drinks after all.

Stepford Cuckoos has posed:
Sophie takes her drink and then a line of clones take their drinks with the chosen designated driver having to pay the tab, she pulls out her phone and holds it towards Piper and asks, "Do we pay now or can we start a tab?" Asks Irma.

Piper Halliwell has posed:
Piper smiles. "I can start a tab for you guys" she offers with a nod, "So what're the five of you doing tonight, then?" she enquires, serving other customers while waiting, taking in the appearence of all five. Again, tiny bit creepy. Maybe they're just coordinating their dress and hair? Piper's not judging, she's just curiously intrigued by it all.

Tab made, Piper adds the four Sex on the Beach orders to it, and shrugs. She didn't card them. Well, that can happen next time. Besides, they /look/ old enough. In Piper's eyes anyhow.

Stepford Cuckoos has posed:
"We appreciate it." Irma says to Piper with a kind but swift smile. Turning towards her sisters she looks at them for a moment and then looking dank at Piper, "We have come out to the city to relax a little and get some time away from the mansion. It had been hectic lately." Long dramatic pause, "We don't like hectic." Irma explains while the other four seem to meander off to find a table, leaving Irma behind to talk.

Piper Halliwell has posed:
Piper raises an eyebrow again. Mansion? She nods. "I hear you. I don't like hectic either" she admits, "At least here" she says, gesturing around, "It's quiet and not a mansion. Like there's many mansions out here in Bloodhaven" she muses looking to Irma with a nod. "You guys want a booth or a table?" she asks, and listens keenly.

"So you hate hectic huh?" she wonders, loking amused.

Stepford Cuckoos has posed:
"Looks like they want a booth." Irma replies and then rolls her eyes, "I'm going to sit here at the bar. They will move around and five is such an odd number." The blonde turns her attention to Piper fully and nods. "This is a different kind of hectic than our home. Much more relaxing, yes."

Piper Halliwell has posed:
"Booths are down the sides. Tables, and yeah, four's a better number than five. Or three" Piper offers. Accounting major can do mathh? Hold the phone. Hold the frigging phone. Piper can do math!

She gives Irma a smile and a nod. "I wouldn't say we're hectic. There's a calmness to P3 when people are in here. It's when there's no customers it's hectic honestly, you know, cleaning, making sure we're ready to open" she says and curiosity grabs her. "You're the one at the bar. You didn't order a drink. You must be driving tonight?" she asks. It's a logical step. "So those four can get wasted in a booth and have you make sure they get home safe. Smart. You like anything soft to drink?" she adds.

Stepford Cuckoos has posed:
"Thank you but no, I'm not thirsty at all." Irma lies but then steps on the footbar and pushes up to sit on the stool beside her. "I will just sit here and enjoy the company if that's not a problem?"

Kaida Connolly has posed:
Once more, Kaida is out and about. She knows there's some rules about this and about that but...she never was one to be pinned down and sneaking out is rather easy when you are tiny. She saw the quintuplets slip out and head to a place so she decided to follow and spent a minute outside the place, running around it to look it over and consider it. P3 she had been to before. She knew that the place had good food. Now, though, she wonders idly about going in not undercover.

Nah. Not her style.

So once more she sneaks in and appears very quickly inside, looking around at the place and considering the quiet atmosphere. Once she spots one of the girls broken off from the group, she leaps up on to a stool near Irma and she looks up toward Piper with a smile, "Hi." She waves a hand from her spot if seen before looking over at Irma with a smile and standing up on tip toes to peer over the bar to look for possible food options.

Piper Halliwell has posed:
Piper nods to Irma, "Alright, let me know if you'd like anything" she says up and down the bar, then spies Kaida. "Hey what can I get you?" she asks. Thankfully....this time, the kitchen door's closed. Thankfully.

Peering to Kaida, Piper looks to her. "What can I get ya?" she asks. Standard questions, really. Standard for bartenders anyway and/or club owners.

Kaida Connolly has posed:
A look at Piper and she considers, "Do you by chance have any of those fried cheese curds?" She asks and tilts her head, "And water." She nods again as she looks at the woman behind the counter and then reaches around to her pack and pulls out a rolled up ten dollar bill and then lays it on the bar top carefully before nodding her head.

Piper Halliwell has posed:
Okay. First the five women. Now the mouse girl and $10, wanting fried cheese curds? Okay, okay. Think, Piper. Think. She nods. "Yeah, but not $10 worth. A bowl is usually $2. So five bowls" Piper says, asking after a moment. "You want anything to drink with that?"

Stepford Cuckoos has posed:
"She did say water." Irma chirps up for Kaida, though she doesn't have much else to say and only gives the other mutant a faint nod of understanding.

Kaida Connolly has posed:
A blink, "Only two dollars? Wow. You guys have good prices...or very small bowls." She nods her head, "I'll take two bowls and water." She nods to Irma with a grin and then pats her ten dollar bill and slides it across before looking over again to Irma, "Have we met? I'm Kaida!" She nods her head and then smiles to Piper.

Piper Halliwell has posed:
Piper looks over the two women, then to the four others then back to the two at the bar. "Tell you what. I'll give you enough bowls to make it $10 worth, right?" she asks. "Water, free of charge. Ten bucks of fried cheese curds. Got it. You stay put, okay?" she asks Kaida, sending the order in. P3's a nightclub wit a kitchen. Which is good, as Piper slides the water gently and carefully to Kaida. She also pulls out the slab of chocolate Shannon was helping devour. There's still a lot of it left. Thud. It finds the bar. The exploded couch has even been replaced.

Kaida Connolly has posed:
A blink and she stares before she just shrugs and then looks down at the stool and out at the people here. She considers them as she watches people vastly larger than her go by. She then turns her gaze back over to Piper and watches her work and even as she looks up at the glass, she looks then to Piper and then asks for a straw before she angles it up and over the glass and then bends it down and starts sipping at it.

Piper Halliwell has posed:
It's a funky straw, too. It's one of those that twirls and bends and anyone'd find in funky Hawaiian cocktails or mocktails with the many twists and loops. yeah, Piper's straws have loops in them. She nods to Kaida and then Irma. "You sure you don't want a straw?" she asks. The 'you like a drink' part is implied before anyone assumes Piper is just handing out straws. Glancing to Kaida again, Piper giggles. The sight of the straw amuses her a lot as she breaks off chocolate and munches it. Please no sneezeplosions today....phew. She didn't sneeze and detonate a couch. That was only funny....once.

Kaida Connolly has posed:
A smile at the straw and she enjoys it, mainly cause it is easy to put it in in such a way that she can easily get at the straw without having to be super goofy. She looks around at the people here, knowing she is getting funny looks before she shrugs and goes back to sipping at the straw and hten looks up to Piper, "You really are an odd one." She states and nods her head, "You're taking the mouse in your bar thing in stride pretty well."

Piper Halliwell has posed:
Piper grins, "Yeah I am" she says with a look, then over to Kaida then Irma again. "Nah we're friendly with almost everone, if you don't cause trouble" Piper nods, snapping off more chocolate to eat, she chews and watches. "So, yeah we're super friendly. Hell we got a Dazzler poster over by the entrance" Piper offers with a nod, looking from Kaida to Irma and the Cuckoos again as Piper laughs, "You want any chocolate?" she asks.

Kaida Connolly has posed:
A smile and she nods, "I suppose." She sips more water before looking over at the club in general and smiles as she hops up to sit on the edge of the bar and then look over at Piper, "What kind of club is this? It seems neat but really slow right now."

Piper Halliwell has posed:
"Nightclub "Piper offers. She's not fazed by the mouse hopping on the edge of the bar either, the 'nightclub' answer being given to the what type of club is it question. Looking from Kaida to Irma, Piper grins. "Seems likee the other four haven't come back to the bar yet. They ever find a booth?" Piper wonders aloud.

Kaida Connolly has posed:
A smile and a nod and then she looks toward the kitchen and then sips some more, "So, how long have you been open?" She asks and looks back to PIper with a smile, "I don't really go to nightclubs much cause they are usually loud and way too busy for me." SHe nods her head, "I kinda...might've snuck out to this one today just because of...reasons..."

Piper Halliwell has posed:
Piper nods, "They can be. But right now it's not loud here" she points out with a nod. Bringing her food out she sets the bowls by Kaida with a grin then settles in withh a look. "See, this is pretty nice in here, huh?" she askswith a knowing nod.
