25th May, Saturday, 23CLE The Yordle and the Bard, Bandle City 10:42 PM
It was another warm night in Bandle City. The calm winds blew, ringing through wind chimes and howling ever so slightly through fences and trees.
A screen was playing an old league match, from before Noxus left the league. It was a match between Diamond ranked summoners, battling for their city states.
The bar itself was lightened up. Yordles of all kinds were hanging around, socializing, drinking, toasting. The glass counter was half full and most of the tables were already taken. A sense of joy was in the air, of stories, dreams and general companionship. Just another night in Bandle.
Ron was in his spot as usual, preparing orders, mixing drinks, cleaning the counter and thinking to himself about the future. His studies have been hard on him but work was relieving because of the many friendly faces he met every day.
There was still a lot of work to be done, as Saturday was always a long day where Ron worked until the small hours of the night.
After a long day repairing everything from carts to clocks and other mechanical devices, Jaslene enters the bar. Her hair, clothing and skin are stained with oil and she's obviously been sweating during the work. She walks on over to the counter and sits down on one of the chair there, leaning against the counter with a sigh.
"It's been a long day... Hey Ron, how's things going over in here in the bar today?"
She chuckles a bit and pulls up her safety glasses, blinking a couple of times as she gets used to the color scheme changing.
Ron was serving an orange furred Yordle who had a big appetite when Jaslene caught his focus. He turned to her and smiled, wiping his brow. "Hey Jas. As you can see, its Saturday again. The place is loaded like always in the weekends."
He moved to wipe another glass and responded to Jaslene. "Sure. How was your day eh?" He said as he took out a glass of ice and poured in pineapple juice and gin.
"Busy as usual. Dad's always keeping me working like 12 hours a day, even when there's no reason to do so. At least it gives me an excuse to take a break over here and at times to work on improving Mexxie..."
Jaslene chuckles a bit, leaning against her elbow that is resting on the counter. She pulls the safety goggles from her hair and places them on the table, a few drops of sweat on the glass lenses. It would be obvious she's somewhat exhausted, and sweat and grease are covering her hair, cheeks and clothing.
Ron chuckled and went to serve another customer a mixed drink, returning later and replying to Jaslene.
"You know, the usual. I have a new project to work on for the academy and it might take me some travelling." Ron sighed "I checked a couple of nearby alchemy shops but the ingredients I need doesn't grow nearby and importing them would cost me over a year of work which is unacceptable."
Ron received an order from a customer and presented it to the kitchen, then returned to the counter. "Sooo... That's it. I hope you had a more interesting day than me."
Jaslene takes a sip from the drink she was given a moment earlier, smiling still.
Well, mine was as interesting as fixin' old junk gets. Haha.
She pulls the wrench from her front pocket, spinning it a couple of times as she drinks a bit more.
But I do love my work, even though dad works me too much. Mechanics are my love, and Mexxie's the product of that love... have I ever shown you that creation of mine Ron?
There's nothing like a spare pair o' hands in case you need to do a two-man job alone.
Anyway, I'm still preparing for my moving to Piltover. I'm going to take a boat from Bandle to Piltover directly... Yay, 4 weeks of being on a boat. That's soooo much fun." Ron sighed "I wish there was an easier way to go to the YASP."
"Sure... I guess you could come too Jaslene. I plan to leave in the 22nd of June, just a month from now." Ron was writing another order, then he started preparing it while replying again. "Well... You know I never was into machines, even though my parents wanted me to do it so much. And you also know me too long to not know that I'll defy even the laws of gravity to not so something I went eh?"
Ron said, serving the drink when he finished. "So... Will you join or not?"
Ron sighed and replied. "I'm planning to move to Piltover. The local academy gave me a recommendation to join the YASP, this is a big shot for me and I can't let it down..." He smiled at Jaslene and continued. "But I'm sure I'll come to visit every once a while. Sure going to miss the parents alright... And I'll miss you... along with the other Yordles of course." He said awkwardly.
The Academy huh? Well... ya have fun with that then. Don't forget to come aroun' now and then to give us a hello back here at home and all. Ya can say you'll come aroun', but with what I've heard of Piltover, actually rememberin' to do it is harder.
She winks at Ron and laughs.
We'll miss ya too Ron, there ain't no other person around who can makes drinks like you do after all.
She smiles slyly at her friend behind the counter.
