{name:The Enclave#|#picture:0} The mermaid is a mundane bar located in the better part of London, it's open late with live music every night. They're strict with who they serve alcohol to (over 18s only!) but everyone of all ages is welcome to this pub.

{name:Pandora Nightwine#|#picture:6}They stopped in front of the pub entrance. With her hands on her jacket pockets, Pan looked up to the Mermaid's placard teetering with the wind. She noticed it was already twilight. She admired for a few seconds the violet sky. This reminded her the amazing Idris twilight. She asked herself if Rayna was remembering this too. Probably not. As far as she could get, Rayna was relief for leaving Idris. "So Miss Aldertree, here we are." said Pan in a joking voice. "Shall we come in?"

{name:Rayna Aldertree#|#picture:3}"Drinks?" Rayna had a very confused look the whole way until they finally got to The Mermaid. She stood next to Pan in front of the entrance reading the sign on the front it had the big flashing OPEN and Rayna finally understood that The Mermaid was a pub. She couldn't help but feel a little giddy, and rebellious. Rayna turned to Pan and gave her a nod, pushing the door open and stepping inside. She was grinning like an idiot and staring over at the bar. Then her eyes crossed over the sign that said 18 and older and she frowned a little, knowing that she was too much of a goody too shoes to pretend she was any older than 17. So reluctantly Rayna turned to see the band that was playing live that night. "They are actually really good." she concluded, turning to Pan to see if she agreed.

{name:Pandora Nightwine#|#picture:6}They made her entrance in the pub. Pan was a little bit amused with the look Rayna gave to the bar. The pub was full, so Pan was searching for a table for two - or more - she was really focused in that action, because she only noticed the live band when Rayna mentioned them. She take a moment to listen a little of the band's beat before she agreed with Rayna. Pan saw movement in a corner in front of the stage where the band was playing, a group of three friends was leaving the table! Pan took Rayna's hand and moved a bit faster than normal people would do - it wasn't like someone was paying attention to something! - and dragged Rayna with her. They sat in the comfortable chairs. Pan took off her jacket and hung it in the back of the chair. She turned to see the band playing. The guitarist was cute and he had a good fingers work. She admired a bit more the guitar and its owner before she turned to Rayna. "Do you know what you want to order?"

{name:Rayna Aldertree#|#picture:3}Rayna took a seat on the high spinny chair, shifting in it until she was comfortable. "Uhh, well I don't know what I want to order." she clung onto her cotton sweater, pulling it around herself protectively. It wasn't that she was cold, as soon as she took a seat she had felt a bit out of place. Rayna figured she would get used to it. "What are you going to order?" Rayna hadn't realized she had been staring off at the floor, she looked like she was off in lala land, she looked up at Pan, waiting for an answer. She was starting to feel a bit more comfortable, no one in the pub seemed to pay attention to her, they were more focused on the beat of the song playing or chugging down a beer.

{name:Pandora Nightwine#|#picture:6}Pan was pleased to see Rayna adapting to the bar. At first Rayna was hesitant, but gradually she was letting herself go. Pan grabbed the menu and took a look. In first appeared the alcoholic beverages "We can't order drinks with alcohol," she looked to her left side "unless you want to. I'm more than sure this guys here wouldn't care at all to ask ones for us." Pan pointed with her head to the guys on the table near by.

{name:Rayna Aldertree#|#picture:3}"I want to." she answered Pan too quickly. Rayna's eyes brightened at the thought of drinking without it being legal. She became jumpy inside, she felt like she needed to prove to herself that she wasn't such a goody two shoes. Rayna picked up her own menu, finding the alcohol beverages section, and sifting through it only to figure out that she didn't know what any of them looked, or tasted like. Sure she had seen a couple of wine bottles at her house in Idris but she had never taken the time to look at the names. "Beer?" she suggested, only because it was the first thing on the list. Rayna set her menu down on the table neatly in front of her, fidgeting with her hands on her lap. "Do you really think they won't mind?" she looked at Pan nervously.

{name:Pandora Nightwine#|#picture:6}Pan winked in shock, although she didn't let Rayna see it. Pan wasn't expecting Rayna to want alcohol. Pan watched Rayna grab the menu and give it a look. She looked lost in the middle of the several names of beverages and when she suggested beer, Pan understood Rayna probably never drank. Pan was pondering if she would advice Rayna about some beverages or let her taste the bitter of a beer. "I really think they won't mind." Pan reassured her. Then she needed to ask "Beer? Are you sure?" She gave another look to the menu to check "Because I have something you might like more." She was thinking about spirits. They tasted better. Beer tasted good in a hot summer day, not in a windy night. "You prefer sweet or bitter?"

{name:Rayna Aldertree#|#picture:3}"No." she answered truthfully, she had no idea if she really wanted beer because she had never tasted it in her life. Rayna scanned the tables around her looking at what other people had gotten. The only problem was she had no idea what any of them were called. She stopped looking around her and focused her attention on Pan. "In between?" Rayna wasn't sure if she prefered bitter or sweet. At least not when talking about drinks. She looked down at the menu again, an idea popping into her head. Rayna reached for the money in her jeans, counting it, even though she already knew there was enough. "I think we should order everything." her face turned a bit red at the suggestion, as a beginner she didn't know what the alcohol would do to her. "Unless some of these are truly awful." she murmured quickly afterwards.

{name:Pandora Nightwine#|#picture:6}"Everything?" Pan grinned. "That would be very, very difficult." She looked to the guys that would help them get their drinks, than to Rayna. "OK. What you think about a beer, a vodka and a shot?" She gave another glance to the menu "Hum... also a Caroline's? Oh! Safari is good too." Pan passed a hand through her hair, trying to compose it. She got up from her chair and said quickly to Rayna "If they look at you, smile and... make a seductive look!" Before she turned around she winked to Rayna, then she started to walk in a way she would never do if she was up to slay a demon. When she get to the table she put an innocent look. To tell the truth, it wasn't the first time she did this. Maybe this was the third, fourth time she did it? It was kind of fun to manipulate people like that, so easily. She made a shy and embarrassed smile "Hey guys! Can I sit for a couple of minutes?" When they nodded, Pan pushed a chair and sat. "I was wondering... Well we were" She inclined her head in Rayna's direction, hopping she was smiling as she asked. "If you could order for us a few drinks..." She made a very shy look and waited to see the reactions. She already had noticed the empty glasses in the table, so they should be a bit touched by the alcohol. When one of the guys smiled at her and telling her to continue, she showed them the money, to prove she intended to pay the drinks. "What do you want, hon? asked the guy in her left. "One beer, two black vodkas and two TGV shots. And what you want? I pay you a beverage for the favor you are doing" Pan got back to her table and after a few minutes the boys came with the drinks (when the bartender was too occupied to notice) and give the girls the drinks they asked for. Pan, discreetly, hugged they guy and payed the bill. When the two girls were alone again, Pan turned to Rayna and smiled "The party can begin. Choose one to start."
