Kraftdinnerclone meditates on a table in the center of the bar. The other patrons ignore her and write her off as a freakshow, which is probably the best thing to do. She signals to the oversized cat-like being that sits in the corner, and it trots over and jumps into her lap. This combination of movements throws something in the universe just a little bit off, and everything in the bar is clouded with a purple haze for a few seconds, then returns to normal — except for Yellow, who has now acquired a greenish tint. Meh.

SlaVitiCkus is rather thirsty.

Arianne offers SlaVitiCkus a drink. It is dark red and rather thick.

SlaVitiCkus thanks Arianne, but declines the offer for some reason pertaining to "ducks". He sighs as his 24-hour timer lapses a few times.

The robotender gave SlaV his rootbeer several days ago. I installed it to prevent this sort of thing, you jerk.

SlaVitiCkus points out all the electricity surges that happened when Arianne was hunting her prey, which fried the Robotender. Not to mention that blasted blackout...

Don't think more backup power would help this, Rawzer

Arianne raises a brow when SlaVitiCkus blames the lack of service on her. She considers offering to fix the robotender, but decides against it, having never seen such a complex machine before. Standing, she offers a short bow of apology to SlaVitiCkus before gliding out of the bar. The shadows return to their usual lack of light, rather than the ominous pools of darkness they had been around Arianne.

An hour later Arianne returns. A terrified goblin comes with her, gently encouraged by the firm hold she has on the back of its neck. She leans forward and speaks softly into its ear. Her fangs glisten when she smiles at it. The goblin nods frantically.

Arianne returns to her seat. The goblin serves SlaVitiCkus his rootbeer.

SlaVitiCkus slowly takes the root beer, not sure if it is safe to drink something a goblin just handed you. However, not having any common sense, he starts drinking it and stops his timer.

Hmm, 5 days and 5 hours about....sheesh this place certainly isn't popular for its service

SlaVitiCkus takes his sword and destroys the robot to end the conversation. Being drunk, however, he kills the goblin.

My, what a messy robot...

The robot rebuilds itself mysteriously.

Realizing that now people can actually recieve what they've ordered in a reasonable timeframe, KDC tries to order something. Finding she can't think of anything, she shrugs at the robotender and invites it to play pinball.

The turnover of anonymous servants in this place is quite large.

Arianne shakes her head and takes the goblin's carcass out back to the trash. When she sits back down she looks quite satisfied, and her lips are tinged dark red.

Arianne, I'm going to have to ask you (even though you have been hiding your actions, which is good) to wash your mouth after meals. It's disturbing.

Anyway, Rawzer fires and melts down the robot, and uses the metal and his Spoon of Awesome to call up a demon to manage the drink dispensing. Rawzer feeds the demon the scrap metal, rendering it immortal (more so) and invincible to everything but my Spoon, which can only be wielded by yours truly. There.

Oh yeah, I forgot, the original robot was battery powered, after all. Oops.

SlaVitiCkus wonders how people are repairing the robot from his destroying it if he missed altogether. He shrugs and scolds at Rawzer for using magic in the bar.
