@EssentiallyEvil > Another customer caught her eye. Ellie gave him a polite nod of apology. “Be right back.” She stepped away to tend the call.. leaving him with a clear line of sight down the bar.

@EssentiallyEvil > faces. Regulars… in their own way.” A faint smile. “Lucky night, though.” She reached for a clean glass, drying it with a practiced motion. “The brunette’s Raven,” she added casually. “But you didn’t hear that from me.” >>

[ Introductions #OneGotham ] @IcebergLadies & #IcebergLounge He was off by noon. Dust still on his boots, sweat in the creases of his collar, Mateo made a b-line through his place like he’d done it a thousand times. Boots off by the door, first… shower, let the day fall +

@EssentiallyEvil Her eyes tracked the line of his hat before she met his gaze, already lining up a glass. Ellie set a napkin on the bar in front of him, her smile small but curious. “Evening,” she said lightly. What are we starting with tonight?”

“Evenin’,” he said low, calm, like he’d just found the spot he meant to sit at all along.

@IcebergLadies > back to the bar.

@IcebergLadies “New section opening tonight?” she said, already reaching for a fresh glass. “That’ll bring a crowd.” She slid the beer into place and, just for Raven, tipped the corner of her mouth in a quick take it easy look—then followed it with a conspiratorial wink before turning >>

#OneGotham Jay approaches @_BugByte_'s station and leans over the bar. She picks up the remote to the large flat-screen on the wall and starts tapping the volume button. Raven and Lark enter the scene right behind her, each claiming a barstool. +

@IcebergLadies > turned back to Raven and Jay. “Looks like it’s just you two for a bit,” she said softly. “Same orders, or want to switch it up?”

@IcebergLadies Ellie’s gaze lingered on the screen for a moment. “Waterfront opening tonight?” she said lightly. “That’ll mean more traffic… and longer shifts.” Ellie collected the glass and gave Lark a polite nod as she passed. “I’ve got the bar,” she said simply, then >>

@IcebergLadies > place with practiced ease — like it had always been part of the order. She offered Raven the faintest, knowing curve of a smile before turning back to wipe down the bar, all business again.

@IcebergLadies Ellie dipped back behind the bar without comment. When she returned, a small bowl of pretzels was set within Jay’s reach with a polite nod. In the same motion, she repositioned the second round of beers she’d quietly lined up earlier, sliding the fresh glasses into >>

#OneGotham [Foundations of Renewal] In the perpetual twilight of Gotham City, where the skyline pierced the smog like jagged teeth, today marked a turning point. Mayor Oswald Cobblepot, his monocle glinting under camera flashes, walked to the podium at City Hall. Flanked by banners emblazoned with “One Gotham, a Lasting Hope,” he spoke into the microphone. +

@IcebergLadies Ellie set the ginger ale down, a ribbon of cucumber catching the light at the rim. “Helps cut the bite,” she said softly. She slid the beers over next, eyes lifting to the screen. “Want something to snack on while we watch? Kitchen’s got a few small plates.”

@_BugByte_ Lark shrugs. "Let me get a ginger ale." "Come to mama," Raven says, fisting the beer with one hand and slapping the bar with the other. "This shit's about to go down—literally." Jay grabs her beer mug and takes a drink, just as the screen centers on the steps of City Hall.

“Thank you for the follow.” —💙🍸

@IcebergLadies > continued, then back to them. Ellie glanced up at the screen as she wiped down the bar top. “Do you know what this is all about?” she asked lightly, eyes lingering on the newsfeed as the anchor’s voice filled the room.

@IcebergLadies Ellie lets out a soft breath of a laugh as she eases the tap back, capping the foam neatly at the rim. “Full pour, got it,” she said gently, sliding the glass over. “Trust me… this one’s better when you can still taste it.” Her gaze flicked to the TV as the anchor >>

@IcebergLadies Ellie reaches for the taps, already lining up two chilled glasses as the volume on the TV ticks up. “Coming right up,” she said lightly. “Press conferences always bring a crowd. Might as well be comfortable while we watch.”

+ The volume on the flat-screen slowly rises, and a GCN anchor’s voice announces the upcoming press conference moments away. [R] "You heard her, Ellie. Beer me!" [J] "Same here."
