Aeryn agreed. "Let's go to the idol zone, but I need to make a pitstop at the bar first, because I'm going to need some fortified courage, before you get me near a microphone."
"Sounds good to me." Robin had dropped off the plate and drink from earlier and was determined not to stuff her face during the entire party, so she didn't stop at the food table again as she followed the Security Chief. There were some non alcoholic drinks available, but most of them mimicked spirits and weren't to the colony-born farmgirl's taste, so she refrained.
Besides, I swear I'm gonna get tipsy just from the smell. It's like hanging out at Uncle Frank's, in the 'barn' out back he wouldn't let most people into. Glad he finally went legal and started selling the stuff for real.
She still had nearly a dozen wooden boxes of her uncle's finest sitting in a cargo container. The Augment didn't drink, but they'd been terrific gifts and had also made great bribe material when she'd needed a piece of medical equipment or an engineer to put a move on with a repair. Perhaps 'bribe' was too strong. Motivators?
Robin helped herself to a cola over some ice, bottles of which were sitting as mixers on a table. She took a sniff just in case they were spiked, but they turned out safe. She didn't think Mara would do such a thing, of course, but better safe than drunk from a single cup.
Yeah, not gonna get plowed at a party where command staff is, and I don't care whether everyone thinks I'm Little Miss Goody Two-Shoes. Which I am.
"All right, girls, let's show 'em how it's done."
