{{... I did not hit submit earlier... but oh well.}}

Amy came into the bar, a little late tonight. Okay, quite a bit late. She had taken a nap that afternoon after she had gotten back from Kits and had slept right through the beginning of her shift.

She had gone to Kits' to pick up Thistle, but Kits had insisted that Amy go home and rest some more because she still looked very tired. After some prodding, just like Karrie had done, Amy agreed to go back home and get some more rest. And more rest she got... almost too much! She had woken up just an hour ago. She was quite awake now, but now her sleeping schedule would be all messed up.

She went behind the counter and started wiping it down as well as other things she hadn't gotten to last night.

Amy sighed as she saw how many people had come to drop off their tanks and then just left. What, was this place just becoming a dumping grounds of some sort? No wonder Killa was getting frustrated.

She had read that Saber had won the Who Am I game. She was really happy for her, but it seemed like not even someone winning a game brought people in. Something needed to be done, especially since this place had been one of the first gaming places.

She got out a piece of paper and a pen and started to write down any idea she had.

Amy hopped up on the bar so that she was sitting on it with her legs dangling over the edge and the paper resting on one of her thighs. She brought the pen up and started to write a little bit. Not much, but at least it was something. She also had the song on the jukebox on repeat.

Amy was now setting up a drink contraption. She had glasses set up with different small metal sticks attached to different areas on the contraption with screws or nails. Yes, she was hella bored, but she was also trying to think up some new ideas.

She was smirking now, thinking she had things down pretty well. She had used some of her wind powers to help her set some things up, so it hadn't taken too long surprisingly.

It was a taller contraption with a glass at the bottom sitting on the counter. Different bottles of alcohol were in the middle upside down with metal sticks on their sides. Metal flaps were on the openings so that the alcohol didn't get out of the bottles.

At the very top was a funnel that a person would put a small metal ball in. The ball would travel down the different tunnels and various mazes that Amy had set up with different plastic items that had been lying around under the counter. There were different paths the ball could take and variations of each possible path. Eventually, the ball would wind up in one of the tubes that led to a certain alcohol bottle. When that happened, the ball would move past the little lever Amy had put in there and the metal flap at the bottom of the bottle would move and the alcohol would fall into the little compartment below it and flow into the glass for about 5 seconds.

If a person wanted to, they could use the ball several times to make a random mixed drink. It was a gamble each time you used a ball!

Amy was now currently soaked in alcohol, but she was pretty certain that she had worked out most of the kinks in the contraption. Since this was for the bar, she didn't think that Killa would mind her putting in a contraption like this without asking him first. If he didn't like it for some reason, she could always take it down.

Sighing and putting the 8th glass under the spout, she put the metal ball in the funnel at the top. She watched the ball move to the different areas, biting her bottom lip slightly in anticipation.

Moments later, after stepping away from it, Amy saw some vodka pour into the glass she had put under the spout and then nothing else happened.

She waited for a few moments and then clapped once in enthusiasm.

"YES!! I got it right finally! This is awesome!"

She picked up the metal ball and put it back in the funnel again. After a few moments, rum went into the glass. Then, Amy went into the fridge, got some orange juice out, and poured it into the glass until it was full.

This was awesome! All she'd have to do is wipe off the spout and liquid trough the alcohol fell into each time and then people would be able to play this game to get their alcohol if they were feeling adventurous!

She took a small sip of her drink. It made her pucker her lips slightly and wince, but it wasn't completely awful. If this contraption went over well enough and she could figure out how, she'd incorporate some pop and juice in with it as an option to go into the glass as well. For right now, it'd just have to be the alcohol.

Amy was now trying to think up a name for the contraption she had just made. She was considering 'Ballgame', but would that be too cheesy and common?

Ball... Genie? Ball... Wizard? Maze? Maze Wizard?

She sighed and put her glass down below the spout. She had drank a little bit of it for there to be enough room for some more alcohol. Frankly, she wasn't really paying attention since she was trying to think up a name.

She put the ball into the funnel and waited for a few moments for her alcohol to be put into the glass. She didn't even pay attention to which alcohol it was.

She lifted the glass to her mouth, took a sip, winced slightly, and then continued thinking.

Jumping Ball? Booze Cruise? The cruise part could stand for the little trip the ball took to get to the alcohol.

She sighed and sat on the bar stool she had brought behind the counter while she had been making the contraption.
