-hello?

[On the screen is a woman, maybe in her mid twenties. When she sees that the feed is on, her face lights up into a wide smile. The shelf behind her has a few bottles on it, and the whole place seems to glow with a warm light.]

Oh. Hello! I'm Delight. Hope has seen it fit to bring me back, and I want to thank you all for your part in my resurrection.

I created this bar for you. The things you'll find in here are safer than the things you might discover wandering around, and I'll do my part in keeping it stocked. Come down if you'd like to chat- I look forward to meeting you all!

A bar!

Finally, one of you gods has the right idea. Thanks.

[secondreturned]

[She laughs.]

-yeah, alright! You're going to have to help me out, though- I have some things that I know are alright for you all, but I understand that humans are used to quite a variety.

[ampliat]

I wasn't here to make the decision to revive you, but looks like it all worked out.

You're going to be able to help Hope?

text.

[secondreturned]

Yes!!! I'll be helping him with some of my power. Hopefully I can make things easier on him.

If I can, I want to make things easier for you all as well.

[GUESS WHO'S SALTY ABOUT NOT GETTING HER FUCKING HOT SPRINGS. Guess who's also got a healthy respect for you gods because of the whole wendigo thing, goddamn. Emily is curious and annoyed but not hostile or looking for a fight, for once.]

so i'm guessing you don't know how the door works

i mean, it doesn't matter. the drinks will help no matter what your answer is

[secondreturned]

I didn't know there was one until Hope brought me back. Sorry...

But yeah, that was kind of my intention. If I can't help you guys in a big way, at least I can make things a little easier to handle.

[voice]

[circumitus]

You're welcome. Appreciate having something useful around here. [As one of the ones who voted for Delight's resurrection.]

How did you die in the first place?

[voice]

[secondreturned]

Wow. You certainly don't waste any time.

[It's a bit rude, and Delight goes quiet for a moment, her buoyant mood a little deflated by the sudden question.]

-very painfully. More excruciating than most things you can imagine.

[prazerbutterfly]

[It takes him a second or two but the video finally works. Operator error but he's not going to admit it.]

A delightful name for an equally beautiful woman. Mm, but that is besides the point, my lady. Not that I mean to doubt such a wonderful gift but is the drink at least safe to drink?

video

[secondreturned]

Why thank you.

[Everyone loves a flatterer. Delight chuckles a little at the insinuation though, no offense taken.]

I've been told that my companions gave you reason to be suspicious? But yes, I can assure you that everything is safe- insomuch as alcohol can be.

[video]

[mismanagement]

Well, I suppose some decent alcohol wouldn't hurt. Got any brandy?

[video]

[secondreturned]

Which kind is that?

video

[quaerit]

[ Considering the things they found wandering around recently turned some of them into cannibals, Gansey doesn't think it would be hard to be 'safer'.

Still. He's hardly complaining. ]

Welcome, Delight.

Thank you for the bar. I don't suppose it comes with an age restriction, does it? Just out of interest.

video

[secondreturned]

[She lifts her eyebrow at the question, a little confused.]

Why? Should it?

[Don't be that kid who tells the substitute teacher you had homework, Gansey. Don't be that kid.]

video

[foundafamily]

Thank you. It's been ages since I had a decent drink.

How're you gonna make all this? People're probably gonna want a lot more than you can get from a one-ma--er, one-woman operation. Unless you can work a lotta stills at once.

[He's probably underestimating her power. It's hard for him to think in terms of how a god--something he's not convinced of--would do things as compared to a punch of Prohibition-flouting gangsters.]

video

[secondreturned]

Of course.

[She tilts her head. Interesting question.]

The same way Hope brings all the supplies into the city. I can create them for you. [There's a pause, and she grins, leaning forward.] You just have to promise me that it'll make you happy, alright?

video

[prespangled]

You're one of them. The gods, or whatever.

[He doesn't mean it to come across as disrespectful. He's more curious than anything, since this is a first for Steve.]

No offense, but there's a lot of things we could've used more.

video

[secondreturned]

Consider it a compromise?

[She's trying to be diplomatic, and she rests her elbows on the table, sinking her chin into her palm.]

Some of you are very happy about it. Happier than you would have been if I'd given you a- oh, I don't know- a greenhouse? Who would be happy for a greenhouse?

[video]

[synthedick]

Welcome back to the world of the living. Not sure if gods are actually considered alive, but it's got to be better than the alternative.

[video]

[secondreturned]

Much better. I missed this place.

[It's a little wistful, but when she focuses on him, she finds herself smiling, bright and wide.]

And you! You don't look like a human- well, you kind of do, but you're missing a few human pieces, aren't you?

[Video]

[thechoiceisyours]

[Well, she doesn't seem to terrifying, and she is called Delight, so... Tentative optimism about having her here; he did vote for her, after all.]

Hey, um. Welcome back, I guess.

[Video]

[secondreturned]

Thank you!

[It's genuine, and she smiles brightly at him. Crazy what happens when you vote for a god not named 'Rage', right?]

Are you coming over?

video

[64th]

Oooh, I like you. [ pretty ladies gotta stick together ]


Do you have wine? Or - oh! Champagne! Do you have champagne?

video

[secondreturned]

I can make both!

[She likes you back!]

I might need a little guidance on exactly how you want it made, but I can do it.

[beanstalk]

[ Oh my god he's finally figured tgis damn thing out. He things. GG to Kanda for being stumped and alone for a couple of weeks. Such a loner.

But tgere is shuffling about as he's turning it over and over in his hands with soft, muttered curses. Though it's a little harder for him to judge if this thing is on, versus video. But he assumes the green means yes, it's on. ]

How the hell do you intend to keep something stocked in this hell hole? Don't give me that "god" crap either - there's no such thing.

[ Wow Kanda way to be an asshole and a grump to a delightful lady. ]

voice

[secondreturned]

So... um! You told me not to give you the only answer I can actually give you.

[She's a little puzzled at that. Sorry bro, what else is she going to say?]

Hello!

I've missed you.

[Bianca mistrusts gods in general, mistrusts Hadriel's gods in particular, and she has spent too many decades presiding over her own cabaret to assume good intentions just because of a smile and available bottles.

But some things are too important not to take chances, so she spends some time compiling a rough history of tequila, with particular attention paid to distillation methods and as accurate a chemical breakdown as she can muster.

This she sends to Delight, with a note.]

Welcome back to existence. I, for one, intend to do my best to remain thoroughly delighted at all times.

[text]

[secondreturned]

[Beautiful. Perfect. She could kiss you right now. You are a wonderful person, Bianca.]

What a fabulous welcoming gift!!! Thank you!

And thank you for your pleasure as well. I'm happy to hear it!

Video

[casperdisaster]

Um!

Do you have sweet and fruity kinds of alcohol? Those are my favorite.

Video

[secondreturned]

If you visit me, you can tell me what they taste like and what they're made of and I can create some for you.

video

[dragonbite]

A bar? So... You serve alcohol?

video

[secondreturned]

I do!

[She nods.]

Why, do they serve other things in bars as well?

[watashinonamaewa]

Who programmed you?

[ She's abrupt. Sorry not sorry. ]

[secondreturned]

I'm not sure what you mean?
