Tereza is settled in at one end of the bar with plenty of clear space around her. Her glass has been filled a few times already and she's working on another glass of beer. The bartender moves further down the bar, giving her a couple of looks before going ahead and getting another glass ready to set near her.

Never one to take obvious signals, Janice sits down next to Tereza. Of course, now she's in the bartender kryptonite area of the pub, so she has to wait to get a drink.

"That any good?" She asks offhand.

"Not really," Tereza says, looking at the glass. "But it's sufficient for an experiment."

"Whether or not I can get drunk," Tereza says. "I'm guessing one of two things will happen before I can get drunk. Either the bar will run out of booze or they'll make a rule to shut this place down."

"More of a curse, really." She downs the rest of the beer and motions to the bartender.

"Outside a lot of areas," Tereza acknowledges. "Causes all sorts of problems."

"I've often wondered if I could figure out how to cause good luck but I think if a proper witch went after you I can't do much."

"She'd be the first to tell you she's not a proper witch. More of a werewolf," she mumbles, taking another dragon from her glass.

"It has its moments," she says, "but..." She goes back to her drinking.

"That is an oddly specific request."

"I have an oddly specific nemesis."

"Which yes, sounds daft when you say it out loud."

"No more than werewolf, I suppose," Tereza shrugs, "but I'm guessing the new headmaster frowns on beating people up."

"Okay so... I stopped a robbery at the fair. And she took it really personal and now says I owe her that money."

"Sounds like a tough spot," Tereza says sympathetically.

"Kind of ruined a date, too."

"Yeah, this bullshit ruined a date to," she says, looking at her glass. "It's ruined several in-fact."

"You wanna vent? I know I was kind of dumping on you, there."

Tereza shrugs, "It's long and complicated and I'd probably be drunk before I was through the story. Venting isn't going to change it and besides, I promised my girlfriend I'd stop putting myself down."

"Complicated," she responds, "she talked me out of it."

"Complicated," Tereza says, "I'm probably bad for her. She doesn't care." She shrugs, "And now this place is starting to look more like my old 'school', so I might as well go all in while I can."

"...well, that's for her to decide whether you're bad for her, isn't it?"

"Or if she... likes the general badness," she gestures vaguely at Tereza.

"Quite the deduction," she snorts, "Like I said, complicated. And no offense, but I don't know you well enough to go that deeply into my love life."

Tereza shrugs. "Who knows," she looks at the glass, "Maybe this is finally starting to do something. Probably not though. I'm not that lucky."

"There's a small employee discount, but yeah," she says with a sigh, resting her arm on the bar and her head on her arm.
