98 Bottles of beer on the wall

[The video feed clicks on in just a moment, and when it does, everyone is greeted by a smiling young woman seated with a guitar.]

Hello everyone! I'm Mirajane, and I'm here to sing for you the ballad of Erza Scarlet and her perfect strawberry cheesecake, as requested by our guild master Mavis.

[The song that follows goes like this, starting off slow and sweet, but finishing into a resounding rock anthem crescendo, that was perhaps a little over the top for such a simple subject matter.]

Thank you for listening everyone, tune in next time to hear the misadventures of Happy and Natsu! Oh, and please remember to stop by Fairy Haven in Fayren if you're looking to have a drink, and to hear more songs from me, Mirajane!

I... I don't know if I could handle writing my reunion with Lisanna into a song.

[Like seriously... she'd be crying while writing it so much... and then the soulful amount of emotion that would be put into the words and melody would probably make everyone who heard it just bawl. Nothing had devastated her as much as losing her sister, and nothing had restored her hope and love of everything as having her back.]

Maybe I should... pick something with less turbulent emotions in it. Like a love song for Mavis and Zeref.

[Because you know... THAT didn't end in world shattering tragedy or anything!]

[Erza didn't think of that aspect of it - she had been thinking about how wonderful the reunion was, not realizing that the loss would have to be described as well for it to make sense. This is why Lucy's the writer of the group, not her, and she'll gladly change the subject.]

I'm sure they'd love that. And it would be uplifting for people to hear about a love so strong that even a hundred years apart couldn't stop it! [Just might need to... skip over some details for Erza's interpretation to work.]

[Mirajane is grateful for the topic change, and even laughs a little at Erza's description.]

You could say it's a love story that not even the gods could stop.

[Though certainly not for lack of trying.]

You'll have to include that in there somewhere, if you can make it fit.

...It's great to have you here; it makes this place feel more like home.

Do you really mean it Erza? I'd love to try to make our guildhall feel as much like Fairy Tail as possible.

[That's when a stray thought occurs to her.]

Erza? How about you and I sit and have some drinks sometime? There's something I've been meaning to talk to you about in private.

Of course I mean it! Every Fairy Tail member helps with that, of course, but having you or Master Makarov around feels reassuring. [They're like fixtures of the guild - it would be odder if one of them wasn't present.]

[Erza has no problem with that - there is a whole year's difference between them, so there's bound to be something that hadn't already came up.] All right, sure. My schedule's pretty flexible, so whatever time works for you should be fine with me.

[It was certainly true that when it came to the day to day, Makarov and Mirajane pretty much ran the guildhall while the rest of the mages were in and out on a constant basis. Possibly the only other member of the guild to be a constant fixture at the guild hall was Nab at the request board debating over which job to take. Still it was sort of touching that Erza basically thought of her as home.]

Whenever you're free, probably best to make sure we have nothing planned for the next day, just in case somebody drinks too much.

[Erza did have a certain rowdy reputation with not being able to handle her alcohol... perhaps not as bad as Lucy or Juvia, but still. Though in all honesty, it was Mira who was a little worried how well she'd handle her liquor because of what she wanted to discuss.]

How's tomorrow night with you?

(ooc: Wanna set up an action post, or do you want me to do it?)

Tomorrow night works for me. Are we going to meet at the guild hall? [From Erza's point of view, most of the nights that she went out drinking were blurs, so she resolved to be extra focused this time around. If Mirajane wanted to meet privately like this, it must be important!

...or she could just not drink as much, but in her mind, that defeats the purpose of going out for drinks.]

((OoC: I'll be going to sleep shortly, so it'd probably work best if you did it, if that's okay. I'll be sure to respond tomorrow!))

That was my plan, I'll be keeping the bar open late for just the two of us.

((ooc: Yeah... I'm about to fall asleep myself, it's why I have been so slow in responding to all your fantastic tags. But I'll try to get something up tomorrow.))

Sounds good. I'll see you there! [Not that Erza would have far to go, seeing as she lives in the guild's dorms.]

((OoC: Just saw your new post, so I'll respond to that right away!))

((ooc: Mira... may have gotten a slight head start on the drinking after this thread.))
