*Luke feels something lurch in his stomach and he makes a face and uses Nora's word.* Ugh, vile. Unnecessary, man. *knowing Maggie, Luke winks at her.* You'll embarrass the lady.
*Luke kicks back the rest of his beer, grinning.* Besides, don't you think it's enough I gotta walk in on you guys every other time I'm in here?

*Maggie makes a little noise of surprise as Bard picks her up. She was already blushing fiercely at his comment, when Luke adds his piece, and she goes completely red* Oh . . ! Well ... good heavens! *but her lingering amusement over their bantering is giving her embarassment a fair fight*

*Bard grins* As though I haven't seen you ... involved... with certain people here in the Brink...

*At that, Luke's smile wanes a bit.* Well, that happens. *He rolls his tongue around the inside of his mouth, thinking. He's got a mighty smirk going on, and he points to Bard.* Remind me. I have a story to tell you about that sometime.

*Bard senses there's something to this story that Luke doesn't want to broadcast the world, and he lets it dropped for now. He turns to Maggie, ignoring the fact that her freckles are glowing*
Maggie, can I get you something to drink?

*Maggie tries to will her blush away, grateful for the shift in conversation* Aye, thank ye, I am a bit thirsty.

*Luke gets up and walks over to Maggie. He stands next to her, leaning down (almost crouching down) as if telling a secret, but speaks loud enough for Bard to hear.*
You know.... in this new theory of yours, you're forgetting that Bard's too old to be my brother. I mean, look at him ... He's.... *points, grinning to Maggie, waiting for a reaction* OLD.

Oh, hardly so. *Maggie smiles, the color of her face gradually returning to normal* I've brothers twelve years apart.
*Her expression starts to turn wistful, but she sets that aside and returns to jesting with them* And if I were te guess, I'd say ye're neither of ye much more than ten, this eve.

*Bard is halfway to the bar, when he whips around and scoops Maggie up over his shoulder in a fireman's carry*
I might only be ten, but I'm an incredibly tall ten.
*he smirks at Luke*

oh! *Maggie squeaks out, the toys in her arms scattering as she finds herself unexpectedly off the ground again, and then hanging almost upside-down over Bard's shoulder*

*Luke laughs and shakes his head at Bard.* You're ridiculous is what you are. And collectively, we might be ten ... mentally speaking.
*siiiighs at the two of them. Goddamn, they need to get laid. Luke will be damned if he's gonna stand in the way of that.* Alright, you two love birds. Go find a room. *adds, grinning, he can't help himself* Just so you know, a room is a magical place you can go so people won't walk in on you having sex.
*Speaking of getting laid, Luke points to the door.* As for me - there are hot babes on the other side of this door. In a few hours, I’m going to be in the arms of someone I haven’t met yet.

Well, whoever he is, make sure he wears protection.

*With his back turned to them, Luke shouts.* Hey! Keep your gay fantasties to yourself, Bard. *turns around and points to Maggie* Your girl's in the room!
*Luke whistles as he passes by his table with the beer cap in the middle. He pauses. He pushes his hand out ... and the cap skids off the table and hits the ground.*
*Luke brings a hand down to his side as if to say "yeeeessss". He feels that fatigue, and he has to stop at the table to steady himself. But really, it's only for a moment. His whistling turns into singing.* Looovin'... S'what I got....
*And then - Luke has left the building.*

*Maggie's left somewhere between stunned, embarrassed, dizzy, and just overwhelmingly grateful. The ridiculousness of it all hits her, and then there's nothing for her to do but start to laugh, almost silently, her shoulders shaking from it.*
