*Luana takes Cora's hand in her own as if to shake it, but just gives a little squeeze instead.* I've heard about you a couple of times already. It's nice to finally have a face to put to the name. *smiles*
*She releases Cora's hand and goes to the bar.* Can I get you anything?

:::It's a little odd watching a stranger be so comfortable behind the bar. Cora felt like a stranger in her own home somehow, but she reminds herself that things had been a differnet way for a while, and this was just to be expected. She gave up the hesitation finally, and beamed a big smile:::
Yes! Wine please, 1966 pino noir chardonnay. Long flat, I believe its called. :::She'd had a lot of time to think about this one:::

*It takes Luana a minute to find what Cora asked for, as there are so many wines there. She finds it and pours some into a glass for Cora.* Here you go!
*She just gets a glass of orange juice for herself. She's seen enough soda and alcohol in the past 48 hours that she won't want to go near either for at least a week.*

:::Cora takes the glass gently, she looks like she could cry, the nostalgia was so heavy. She brought the glass up, and just took a breath of it through her nose. It appeared as though she was savoring every moment of the senses, as she'd been neglected for some time:::
:::She opened her eyes once and smiled sadly at Luana::: Thank you.
:::She finally took her first sip, and took everything she had not to cry right then. She swallowed it, and choked back a whimper:::

*Luana watches Cora and takes a drink of her juice.* Hey, you okay? I remember you were pretty upset the last time I saw you.

>>Sato appears suddenly, in mid stride. She stops and looks behind her, as if to make certain that someone wasn't following her into The Brink<<
Oh. ******** cool.

:::She indulges in another sip, and finally nods slowly, her eyes still closed for fear they might open up with tears coming out:::
Yes...I'm considerably more stable now. I really was aware that fading is a normal occurance here. But, I had feared it so much, I denied to myself. I...I've missed this place.
:::But then Cora heard a new voice from somewhere behind them. Her eyes came open...:::
Hm..? :::It was no one she knew, but she finally took to it like a duck in water. She put slowly put down her wine and stood up:::
Greetings Citizen. Please state your name and status.

*Luana doesn't back away from Sato this time. She just keeps drinking her juice and keeping a careful eye on the two women on the other side of the bar.*

:::She approached Sato, and could hear the aggression in her voice, though the profanity had lost it's edge during her time away from the brink.
She saluted, her right fist clentched, and struck to her chest:::
Omegatropolis Police Force 2nd Class Lieutenant Cora Serenis of the house of El. Welcome to the Brink of Time Lt. Sato. I take it you are not new here...

>>Sato cocks her head. That was a good question<<
I... don't really know how new I am. I don't know anything about this damn place. Except that it keeps sucking me up into here. But if you mean that this isn't my first trip, you're correct.

:::She nods and smiles a knowing smile...:::
Make yourself at home, Lt. :::She walks back to her wine, and takes another sip, and smiles back up to Luana:::
May we get you a drink?
