A few good drinks

Who: Thorin, Bilbo and you!!
What: A friendly drink? A drinking contest? Let's see where it goes!
When: Now
Where: The Death Match Bar and Fight Club
Rating: PG-13 because Thorin and drinking

If it's anything a Dwarf enjoys, it's a good mug of ale.

Thorin could say many things about this castle, despite his short time here thus far. But to its credit, the ale was free-flowing and was one of the best he'd ever tasted! The golden liquid ran smoothly from the mug down his throat, leaving the slightest of aftertastes on his tongue. But he enjoyed every swig he took from the mug, and eagerly had it filled each time it emptied. Being a Dwarf, he could drink his fair amount of ale before it started affecting him.

He was at least two pints in at this point, but it was no fun drinking alone and it made Thorin lonely for his family and companions. Thorin would eagerly welcome company, but for now, he would enjoy the fine taste of the ale given to him - what sort of Dwarf would he be if he turned down ale?

Bilbo had arranged to meet Thorin for a drink at the designated place he had arranged. He had never been to The Death Match Bar and Fight Club before, so this was something new for him. He tentatively made his way inside the bar and looked around. There were many faces he didn't recognise and he felt nerves build up inside of him. Spotting a hairy dwarf should be easy enough, right?

It was then he saw Thorin, sat at the bar with a drink in his hand. Bilbo scurried along to meet him and had a grin over his face. "You found the bar alright then, I see. What are you drinking?"

Bilbo nearly fell forward with the heavy pat from the large dwarf, as he often did. Sometimes Bilbo wondered if Thorin knew his own strength compared to the light hobbit.

"Of course. Ale or mead, am I right?" Bilbo grinned up at the dwarf and picked a flagon from the bar top. "Then, will you be so kind and top my flagon up for me? I have proved to you in the past that I can take my ale just as any dwarf can."

"I can handle strong stuff, just as much as you can, Thorin. We hobbits are good at keeping our ale down." He shot Thorin a look that said it all. Bilbo's pride clear all over his face. He took the flagon and followed suit, taking a large gulp then smirking.

"This is good stuff. You are right, Thorin." Bilbo was pleasantly surprised at how good the ale tasted here in Paradisa. But then it was a castle which granted every wish you wanted. Near enough anyway. "People told me that time stops back home, whilst we are here. So, no one knows we are gone."

"I'm not entirely sure, as it's only what I've heard off others. I believe we do not age here, so we should return to our own time like we were before. If that makes sense." He gulped some ale and didn't really understand it at all. What if they did age? Bilbo didn't know, as he was only a hobbit. "Gandalf would be a better one to explain than me, if only he were here too." He gave Thorin a small smile.

Bilbo didn't want to imagine himself as an old hobbit sat within his armchair for all time, once he was back in his own world. He had too much to do and see first!

Bilbo frowned at Thorin's words. That was not always true and Bilbo liked Gandalf. "You're just angry at him because of the time he walked away from all of us. But then he came and saved us at Trollshaws, remember that? Otherwise, I'd end up dead and inside a Troll's stomach!" He frowned at Thorin, then took a drink.

"Yes, we do. That I am grateful for." He nodded.

"Well, perhaps it was, but...that's not the point. He's a kind and very trusting person. I won't go back on how I feel about him." He sipped some drink and remained silent for a moment. Bilbo only knew too well at what the dwarf prince thought of the wizard.

It took Frodo some time to locate the place, sadly. He wasn't chosen as the Ringbearer for his navigational skills nor his excellent memory, but he has persistence enough to keep searching until he finally overhears his cousin's voice from inside.

Grinning from ear to ear, he quickly hops in and claps Bilbo on his shoulder while nodding at Thorin. "What's this? A drinking fest and I wasn't invited?"

Two Hobbits, woo XD

Bilbo's face cracked into a broad grin, as he spotted his nephew alongside Thorin and himself. "Frodo, it is good you made it here. Thorin and I are just sharing a good mug or two of ale." Bilbo was now on his second, or was it his third? He couldn't remember.

"Two pints, I'd wager! I must catch up."

Frodo would make a point to look around for the barkeeper, but Thorin's magical flagon reminds him that they are, of course, in a magical castle. He makes a point of pretending to hold a glass of ale in the air before wishing for it to appear, only the castle is a fickle thing and makes the entire thing fall just next to his hand. Oops.
