    • The Aerobrake


      A small, weather-beaten bunker lying on the outskirts of the Confederate colony on Mars sits idly, having just opened, waiting for patrons to enter.

      Discussion here is usually lively, and the people friendly (most of the time, at least). Anyone who wants to come and have a drink and just chat is always welcome.

      Outside the door half-hangs a dirty, old, and scarcly-legible sign reading:

      Rules of the Aerobrake

      1. No shirt, no shoes, service but no complementary peanuts
      2. Fighting allowed, provided it be entertaining and tasteful
      3. Don't harass the bartender, 'cause we only got one
      4. Small, yippy dogs not permitted, unless they can mix drinks
      5. No one under the age of 16 without a false I.D. is permitted
      6. Protection from our patrons cannot be guranteed to boy band members or fans
      7. None of that bloody role-playing

      Shade enters,and asks for a Tomato Juice.

      Hey,I had this (impossible) idea for a fighter.
      You have a fighter bay,and it launches fighters in pairs of 2.
      The fighters have 1 turreted beam,which they target each other with.
      Now the beam doesn't hurt them,but it does hurt anything else which touches it,and so the pair of fighters can go around killing anything which gets between them!
      Cool or just weird?
      Remember,it's impossible,so don't try it at home,or you're likely to fry your little brother (on the other end of the beam).

    • Can't say I am - I've never played the game.

      Nice bar - I like the name. It's the name I would have chosen from your list. Anyway, I guess I'll have a brandy - any other good drinks? I seem to be runing out of them all I know is Saalian brandy. Well maybe there's Ol' Janx Spirit, Pan Galactic Gargle Blasters and Jinantonics too.

      I could not call it a bar unless we served Pan Galactic Gargle Blasters. Ol' Janx Spirit is served as well. And I'm sure you remember that every race everywhere has managed to create some sort of Jinantonic. Of course, whether it is a lemon-flavored water-like drink, or pure rubbing alchohol with a touch of parsley juice is something you will not know until you order one. πŸ˜›

      /me is the proprietar, and can't be the bartender as well. Anyone want the job?

      "Ooh! Me! Me!" Rawzer quickly jumps behind the bar, puts on an apron, beats up N'suck (tastefully), and accidently blows a section off of one wall trying to mix a Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster. Then he hires a small yipping dog to help. His name: Yapper. "He can be my new animal friend! Like Chirpo!"
