[attr="class","shicon"] [attr="class","shb"]Nothing like a little pre-Friday wind down to the tune of pitchy Top 40 renditions, Disney classics, every Adele song at least twice, and awkward duets with daring strangers. No, really. Thursday night karaoke at the music shop/cafe/lounge - whatever Ace's business could be classified as at any given moment - was something Lettie looked forward to every week. Completely regardless of the degree of talent that could be expected. And tonight in particular was shaping up to be a good one, with Ricki slated to swing by with Zerne in tow. Awkward duets with daring definitely-not-strangers, maybe?
It was just shy of seven, and the place was already filling up again after having hit a bit of a lull in the early evening. The karaoke machines were ready to go, track list excerpts scattered around to be browsed. Lettie busied herself on the modest stage platform, just setting up the mics, now.

[attr="class","spc"] Back to old habits, it would seem. Running along through the crowds, if she c ould keep pace, she was sure she could get there on time. However, with it so close to the weekend and after work, the streets of the city were cramped as usual and not helping Ricki's case. After several minutes of trying to weave through the crowds and stumbling about as she would then be bounced around like a pinball, Ricki decided that the normal way was not going to work unless she wanted to show up a hour late. And that's when she suddenly took off from the crowd. It was so subtle, those around her that weren't looking didn't even notice but a few number of people stopped and stared at the sight of a young woman suddenly leaping up into the air. Landing on the nearest roof, she paused for a moment to orient herself before racing along to make her way to the café and hopefully show up at a little less late now that she had a clear shot. About ten-or-so minutes after the time she was supposed to meet Zernebog at the café, Ricki would drop down right in front of the café from seemingly no where. Not even noticing Zernebog nearby, her focus locked on the front door and she quickly stumbled that way to throw open the door. " I'm here, bitches!" she declared confidently... Despite looking rather winded. People around the entrance slowly turned to quirk brows at her and stare, while Ricki just held her hand up in the air and her general pose for a moment. Then slowly she noticed that none of the people within the entrance looked like Zernebog and she squinted at the crowd for a moment, before looking back over her shoulder to spot him behind her. Oh... There was an awkward pause, before she slowly started to make her way inside. " I'm counting this as me being here first" she told him before clearing her throat.

Sing-offs? | Ricki was late. Again. Like she usually was. Really, Zernebog should have been used to this by now. Were it anybody else, he would have been grumbling at the discourtesy and gone on ahead without them or he would have just left period, but this was Ricki. He had figured out a while ago that he would excuse Ricki of things that he wouldn't tolerate from an acquaintance and maybe from friends too if he were in a bad mood... well, as long as the things didn't do any lasting harm anyway.
He supposed that he could afford to be less worried about the woman who boasted of having the Absolute Defense -and definitely could back it up in his experience so far when he trained with her with his electrokinesis- but for some reason he couldn’t help but worry about her anyway. Even if it was just being late in mundane matters like this.
Where was she?
As if summoned by her thoughts, he saw Ricki drop down from the sky from seemingly out of nowhere. He could only stare as she then proceeded to rush inside and declare that she arrived without even noticing that he was there. He simply watched with a flat expression as he waited for her to realize that he wasn’t actually inside the place but was actually behind her.
Once she did realize it and turned around with that declaration, he snorted and rolled his eyes. ”Considering that I’ve been here for around fifteen minutes or so, no.” He gave her a pat on the shoulder. ”But you get points for a flashy entrance anyway.”
He then put his arm around her shoulders with a raised eyebrow. ”Now come on, let’s go. You still have to show me this… karaoke thing, right?” He said as he nudged her forward.

[attr="class","bg"] [attr="class","bodybackground"] [attr="class","textbox"] Ah yes, karaoke was his favorite time of the week. It was going to be even better tonight though. Ricki and Zernebog were joining them tonight for Disney, Adele and possibly even some duets. He was quietly looking forward to seeing his friends get up on the stage and perform a duet, the two of them had a fun dynamic together and it was always fun meeting up with them. Especially when Ricki would come and tell a few stories from her missions and what not, those times were fun. It also made Ace glad he wasn't involved in the Initiative, there was too much responsibility there, and too much action. He was content with his civilian life. Ace was at the bar, creating some drinks and serving some customers who came up with their IDs for a drink. Although most of the crowd was out on the floor or hovering near the stage as Lettie prepared the karaoke machine. The people at the bar counter soon drifted away, creating a small crowd in front of the stage. He started cleaning some of the wine glasses the servers had brought back, watching the stage. Lettie seemed to have everything up and running, all that was needed was Ricki and Zernebog. As though on cue, the front door opened and Ricki declared her entrance. He paused cleaning out the wine glass and slowly turned towards the entrance and blinked at the sudden yelling. But realizing who it was, Ace smiled and waved both her and Zernebog over to the counter. "Hey guys, glad you could make it." He said in greeting, placing the glass off to the side and leaning on the counter before them. He gestured to the various wine bottles and the pop machine behind him. "Did you want something to drink or something to eat before we get started? On me, of course. I think the karaoke machine should be set in just a minute."LETTIE SPENCER KEEPER Perun CODED BY DRACKEN [googlefont=Source Sans Pro][googlefont=PT Sans Narrow] [newclass=.bg]background:#242424;width:400px;padding:10px;margin:0 auto;[/newclass] [newclass=.bodybackground]border-left:10px solid #468F61;width:390px;[/newclass] [newclass=.textbox]padding:10px;background:#333333;color:#cecece;text-align:justify;font-family:Source Sans Pro;font-size:12px;[/newclass] [newclass=.textbox b]font-weight:bold;color:#5fb980!important;[/newclass] [newclass=.linkeru]background:#242424;text-align:center;padding:3px;[/newclass] [newclass=.linkeru a]color:#468F61;font-family:Source Sans Pro !important;font-size:15px;[/newclass] [newclass=.linkeru2]background:#242424;text-align:center;padding:3px;margin-top:-10px;[/newclass] [newclass=.linkeru2 a]color:#468F61;font-family:Source Sans Pro !important;font-size:15px;[/newclass]

[attr="class","shicon"] [attr="class","shb"]Was there even a point in being surprised anymore? Well, it was Ricki, so she would probably find a way soon or later. Tonight though, Lettie, about to step down off the stage, just paused as the door slammed open, staring with an expression that basically said, yes, this has happened, that is my friend, she doesn't see Zerne right behind her, oh there she goes. She wondered how long Zerne had been waiting again.
Continuing down from the stage, she started to make her way back to the bar, grabbing some empty and done with drink glasses along the way. With a couple of short exchanges with other regulars, she ended up arriving at the bar just after Ricki and Zerne had, going around to set the glasses with the other to be sent back for cleaning in the kitchen. "It's all set up now," she noted over her shoulder. "And hey guys." Casting a smirk over at Ricki, "Making a star's entrance as always."
