[ the video feed comes to life with a young woman slumped against the counter of what looks like brooklyn's finest water bar. behind her is a blue sign that says 'the HYDRAtion station', but the lights on HYDRA seem to be broken because they're currently not lit up.

she looks vaguely unamused, ribbons of red energy swirling idly around her finger tips as they drum against the counter. ]

I'm taking suggestions for a new name for this... water bar. [ she gestures back to the sign, red energy following the motion like the tail of a comet, her thick vaguely eastern european accent not thick enough to disguise her disdain. ] English is not my native language, I'm afraid my puns will not do it justice.

What about "Aquaintance Station" or "Wet Bar".

Though that last one might give people the wrong impression...

[whatchoice]

What impression would it give?

[dadandgone]

A wet bar is what they call a bar or counter equipped with running water and a sink, for serving alcoholic drinks at home. So it might send the impression that you serve alcohol and not just water.

[whatchoice]

Oh. I thought a wet bar was with oysters.

[ nope, that would be tony's raw bar. ]

[dadandgone]

Don't think so...unless maybe in space that's different.

[Maes is from a land-locked country...they don't get a lot of seafood like that unless it's imported and Maes wasn't a big fan of seafood anyway]

[whatchoice]

It is probably a mistake.

English is not my first language.

[dadandgone]

Not a problem. Being able to communicate in multiple languages has got to be beneficial.

Only if anyone knows Sokovian.
