"I'm not going to argue with that." Tauvits raised the tankard with both hands and drained half of its contents in one go. His posture had been slightly slumped for a short time now, and although he hadn't faltered with words or movements they were both becoming increasingly deliberate, his concentration to remain in control rather clear. He didn't have a match tomorrow. He could get as hungover as he liked.

"Now, this Racht stuff, looks interesting..." He picked up one of the large worms, observing it writhing for a moment before he felt his stomach trying to compete with it, and shoved the thing in his mouth rapidly. Once it had stopped moving, that went down fairly smoothly as well.

"I think I'm getting the hang of Klingon food. Get it before it gets you, right?" He chuckled faintly, returning to the slightly safer heart of targ, which didn't taste so bad as his mouth was being numbed with alcohol.

K'Hare spotted his blue friend and wasn't going to let his poor choice in company stop him for talking to him. Besides, someone had just announced they were covering all the drinks tonight... what more could a Klingon need?

He walked over to the mongrel pair and started to interrupt when he realized, in some sense, he was one of them. That realization could have made him sulk off but he was spotted, and he was determined to be in a good mood.

"Falco of House Tauvits, my fine bolian friend. How are you? Someone has just volunteered to cover the drinking tonight... shall we make them regret it?"

"K'Hare!" It was entirely possible Tauvits' reaction to the other Klingon's arrival was a little unnecessarily enthusiastic. "It is good to see you, my friend! Have a seat!" He gestured promptly to a spare bar stool, his expression suggesting he wouldn't take no for an answer.

"We seem to have an awful lot of targ heart and some Racht, which as far as I can tell is gagh on steroids, and is twice as angry about being eaten. I don't know, we don't have this food where I come from - the Bolian homeworld, of course. However, your talk of free drinks intrigues me. I'm running low on bloodwine." He wasn't, not when he spoke; but he certainly was when he next lifted the tankard for a hefty chug.

What he had not decided was whether Ta'pez was ready to forgive K'Hare for the many insults and petty stings both of them had done.

Tauvits' tankard came clattering down onto the bar, and he gestured at the bartender until a refill came along, which he took another generous swig from. "So, tell me, mate, how're things your end? I mean, with judging this tournament and all, that's got to be pretty mad, but Klach D'kel Brakt? How's that monstrosity working out for you?" His pronouncing of Klingon words suffered somewhat for the alcohol, as did any subtlety now that his intention to establish K'Hare's suitability for dealing with his daughter's safety was settled.

Whether intentional or not Tauvits was walking into a finely crafted embarassment for K'Hare. To hear him speak of the recent events would be most enjoyable. He grabbed his tankard and drak hopping his composure would return by the time he was to lover it.

Q'olavraH had gone and retrieved the girl from Sickbay. They were being followed by QaraH and a Federation security officer as well.

She took the girl first to the betleH arena and they watched several of the female fighters practice with the males either fighting against them or cheering them on in their work.

The child watched with rapt attention. Gasping once or twice in her excitement. Q'olavraH merely watched her, gauging her reactions and finding that she couldn't wait to start teaching the girl how to weild the betleH and the meqleH.

They watched for a while and then Q'olavraH heard her own stomach growl. "Come wovqut. K'Hare awaits us for the evening meal."

The girl, being reminded that they were to meet her father's double tensed and her hand trembled as she put it into Q'olavraH's.

"Do not worry. You will like him. He looks a bit different than your father, but there are simularities as well. And K'Hare tells wonderful tales. He will probably ask you questions, do your best to answer them honestly." Q'ol told her as they walked.

The girl nodded. "I am not frightened.. much. My father changed after mother went away."

Several memories flashed through Q'ol's mind. Things that Khoal had put there. She could not supress some of it, but the memories were getting clearer and falling into order somewhat, though there was still much to confuse her.

They entered the establishment that she and K'Hare had agreed on. She had not seen him since she had told him the tale of the kidnapping, so she herself was not certain what to expect.

She spotted K'Hare and caught his eye. She had no desire to go anywhere near ta'pez so she and the girl moved toward a more private setting while she waved at a wait person and told them she needed bloodwine and a mug of 'awje' for wovqut.

OFF: Tag K'Hare.

OFF:

Tauvits is off for the night so I will post for him here, just a bit, to make this scene flow right.

ON:

"The judging of the tourney is actually a welcome burden, but there are little details, a horde of small things that always take up too much time. As for the base, the answer is mostly the same but I have grown into the duty. I do miss the days on the Hegh'ta though."

K'Hare spotted the pair of females enter. "I see my timing was poor. I have a dinner appointment and I had hoped for more time to talk to you. Perhaps later."

Tauvits looked over and recognized Q'olavraH but not the 8 or 9 year old child with her. "Who is that?"

K'Hare frowned. "It would seem she is the child of Q'olavraH and K'Hare..." He laughed at the expression on the blue man's face. "But the truth is far stranger then what you imagine. I am still trying to understand it myself. We will continue later."

Then K'Hare crossed the room and joined Q'olavraH and his 'daughter' for a private dinner.

K'Tar entered The Legion with his brother, G'Narr and sister, Baretha. He had taken time to bandage the wound on his arm and the bleeding had stopped. K'Tar was smiling as he entered and approached the bar. "Bartender, get us some bloodwine!" K'Tar roared, slamming his hand down onto the bar and laughing. "K'Tar, son of M'Rok is victorious!"

The bartender set down three large tankards of bloodwine as the pair of three grabbed them, taking a sip as they looked over the patrons of the bar.

"Have you heard anything of the House of B'reml?" K'Tar asked his sister.

"No. Their purpose here still eludes us. But if they dare to attack you, they will regret ever being born," Baretha said with a toothy and dangerous smile.

K'Tar smiled. "Indeed, they will."

OFF:

Whoa, a man goes to bed and has a busy morning at work, then he's missed THREE PAGES OF POSTS SINCE HIS TAG??!?

Out of control -- good old Bat'leth tourney.

I'll do my best to fit this in, hopefully the comments from earlier in the conversation won't have interfered with what followed.

ON:

Quote:

"Wouldnt you think that the Dockmaster responsible for angering half the klingons on statation would be hiding somewhere other then the most frequented watering hole on this base?" said Ta'pez as he walked up to the bar from behind.

Tauvits considered this one briefly, before turning around, and calmly taking a large gulp of the warm bitter once more. "Perhaps. Or maybe he's not one to cower from Klingons. Not everyone is."

The Tellarite chuckled heartily, this was the sort of brashness that the Tellarites shared with the Klingons. "Or maybe, you should be hiding from me? If I'd even a touch of skill with the blade, I'd take the lot of you after the trouble you've caused me! I'd think the ferry service I've set up for yas would make you quite happy indeed."

The Tellarite chuckled again as he listened to the two, who clearly knew each other from the past, catch up.

Another Klingon, called K'Hare, came and went telling an odd tale indeed.

Finally, the pig-like creature interjected as he ate some of the meal. "This heart of targ is very good. It reminds me of some Terran canine treats. It's sad but they do not serve that here... it is very appetizing but the replicator cannot do it justice."

"We do too on Tellarite civilian ships. Doesn't go too good with most Federation members so we must go with out when serving in Starfleet. This is a treat, you have my thanks."

"We'll in that case enjoy the opportunity Ta'pez said." He realized that the alien was about as friendly as one of his race could be and was content with that.

I apologise profusely for the actions of my character. I blame Ta'pez, for the bloodwine, and the Klingons in the corner, for starting the singing. Tauvits is an active drunk, and I'm sure he'd be very embarrassed if he were sober enough to see straight.

...also, the idea of Tauvits singing the Blues Brothers (or Spencer Davis, depending on your mood), was too funny to let go.

ON:

Tauvits grabbed his tankard of bloodwine again and reached across the bar for a refill, a little oblivious now to the conversation between Ta'pez and Gheuty after he'd lost some of his drunken momentum and after K'Hare's 'explanation' of who needed his presence more.

"...daughter of K'Hare and Q'olavraH... who's about eight or nine," he mumbled to himself, aiding the thought process occasionally with a gulp of bloodwine. "So that would mean, nine or ten years ago... the timer was started for my head to explode, around about now..."

Ironically, this coincided with the singing starting on the other side of the room, and Tauvits watched in absolute confusion as G'Trell, along with others he only recognised vaguely get up and commence the highly respectable feat of drunken singing, in Klingon, which he had to struggle to catch all of.

By the time they were done, his mind had gone completely on holiday and he had hopped up onto one of the low stools on a nearby table, bowing deeply and dramatically to the other table and almost losing his balance. "Finely sung, ladies," he declared smoothly. Or what he thought was smoothly. "But surely we can broaden horizons beyond the Klingon?"

He paused for a moment, rooting around in his repertoire for a song, before one finally emerged. It was just as well his singing talents weren't painful; nothing brilliant, but just enough so that he wouldn't embarrass himself. Further.

"Well my temperature's rising and my feet on the floor,
Twenty people rockin' and they wanna go more,
Let me in baby, I don't know what you've got,
but you'd better take it easy, this place is hot...

"So glad we made it
So glad we... Bugger!"

The last word wasn't in the song, for certain, but it was in Tauvits' vocabulary as, when he became far too involved in the song, the law of gravity finally became too much for him and he tumbled ungracefully from the stool to land in a heap on the floor.

The biggest miracle was that he didn't spill his bloodwine, and indeed found that a horizontal position was just as viable for the enjoyment of his drink, as he drained the tankard and slowly found he didn't have much inclination or ability to get up.

OFF:

Tags to any, he's just made a public fool of himself, I'm sure many have noticed.
