Linden's handshake was firm and friendly, careful not to crush Cinder's small hand. "Glad to put a face to your name," they said politely and, like most things that came from the Ogre's mouth, they meant it. Rook's aside to Kai brought a grin to their face, still present when he turned back. "Good to meet you, Rook. I did! Firebringer, you in? We could be a team." They flexed one arm across their chest, as if that would convince her, and followed it with a laugh. "No pressure, though." Despite that, the Ogre was already drifting closer to the prepared table, their smile a little coaxing.

Kai bloomed a smile on her face at Apollo's quip about how Firebringer and Loki seemed to have a team theme going... and sweet, sweet liquor. Red and amber went down quick with a 'cheers!' as her former opponent turned his attention to the small Elemental. Beryl earned a chuckle as she moved toward the flip cup table to watch the younger Lost get down to business. "Eh, there's landmines in that crew, I know. A lot of politics between 'em, and Buck's the odd man out. If anything, I think we'll need to make sure we don't get drawn into whatever this is beyond doing our jobs."
Spring sure would try.
"You want in?"

She notes Linden's intro to Cinder and realizes she never said hi back. "Sorry. So many intros going around. Nice to meet you, Cinder!"
Firebringer then grabs herself a shot of tequila off the tray as it was placed in front of her and immediately downs the shot in one go. She makes a bit of a face, shaking her head a little and then sets the glass down on the tray again, "Much appreciated, Apollo." She gazes over at Loki and raises her eyebrows, curious, "Nice ta meet'cha Loki. And, I mean, I'll team up with just about anyone if they are down," She gives a little wink.
Grinning then, she says, "Alright. Now I'm ready to do stuff."
She gazes back over at Apollo. "For fun, I dance terribly, serve drinks, and then geek out with some anime or play video games afterwards." There is a hope that that wouldn't weird anyone out. She's a total weeb and she could go into her secondary stuff later. Potentially much later depending on how these games seem to go.
"Alright, Linden. You wanna team? Let's do it. So, what exactly are we doing, cause I think I missed something." She laughs a bit to try and keep away the little hint of awkwardness.

The feat of athleticism brings a smile to his face. The Mirrorskin unfastens the topmost button of his shirt and tussles his hair before sitting in one of the booths. He's comfortable.
"What's new with you, Apollo? You've got a glow about you."

Cinder cocks an eyebrow as the uneven teams, pulling Beryl over and across from Kai. She paired off with Firebringer, and the Wizened Soldier smiled up at Linden. "Guess we have to double up," she said, giving two solo cups each as the table was set. The university student orders a pitcher of Blue Moon and a tray of Pornstars, and there's a countdown.

Apollo realized in the excitement, no one seemed to notice his question. A shot was handed to Oren, "My Mantle...?" he smirked, "Well, now that I'm working with the Chevaliers, my work's only gotten dirtier." He gave Loki a good natured thumbs up as the Knight Commander looked up from his conversation with the Arrayer. "What about you, man? Get into any of the shows yet? If you have your foot in the door, I've got some leverage, but you're already..." he gestured. "The element of drama." |

Settling into their place across from Rook, Linden grinned across at the Wizened and got down to business.

Firebringer gives Cinder a nod and does her thing, never taking her eyes off her as she downs her drinks. The elemental still wonders how alcohol doesn't just explode when she consumes it. Magic? Yeah. Sounds about right.

Cinderella almost chokes on her beer, regretting some decisions (mainly the fact that she wasn't the biggest fan of beer). However, Firebringer's leveled determination sparks her own competitive nature and the drink rapidly drains. It isn't enough, and the Elemental slams down her cup. Cinder swaps to the purple shot, face pinching in agony from the poor choice in palette swap.
Rook side-eyes the Fairest as he drains the first cup with no issue, until he sighs at the Ogre across from him, muttering something about cheap swill. He doesn't even finish, opting for the shot after swigging some water in rapid succession.

Firebringer flips her cup in the air, just barely making it successfully. Holy shit. Am I actually succeeding? "Booom" And she was only just getting started. ...well, mostly. As short as she is, she's practiced at least.

The look on Cinder's face made Linden very glad they weren't the one taking a shot this round. Flipping their cup easily, the Ogre shook their head at Rook. "That looks foul," they said with a sympathetic laugh.

Kai's first round was far less inspiring than her stunts throwing darts with Apollo. In particular, her second flip was poor, and she slammed a shot back. It staggered the Wizened, who let out a little woo! and stuck out her tongue as the Porn Star's excessive sweetness made her want to gag. The second one went down a little easier, but she was having a Rough Go.
"Fuuuuck me," she muttered, obviously drunk. "Come on. Y'all got this."

Beryl failed twice to flip her cup, laughing at her clumsy results as the empty cup toppled, allowing the drunken Wizened to catch up as Cinder and Rook started shouting in the throes of competition. They had clearly lost in terms of points, but 0 vs. 3 was just embarrassing.

Staggered by the drink but never defeated, Kai flipped the shit out of her cup.
"OREN!"
She pointed at the Mirrorskin.
"Tag in!"

And so it was that the Summer Court enjoyed an evening of partying and socializing with one another, forging bonds that would serve them in the future.
