I think you have to sign up first. So why don't you do that. [ she will get them... more drinks. ]

[supertardiness]

[He nods in agreement, before making his way up to the front.]

Want me to sign you up too?

[withasouvenir]

Sure, why not. [ it's not like she knows anyone here, she can make a fool out of herself. ] Monster by Nicki Minaj. [ and she will head off for drinks before meeting him back at the table. ]

[supertardiness]

[Barry will dutifully put her on the list before flipping through the songs, trying to figure his out, and when he comes up with a song that sufficiently amuses him, and then back to the table he goes.]

I think there are only a couple people ahead of us.

[withasouvenir]

Awesome. I've only actually ever done karaoke in the living room with Tommy and Laurel. [ and ollie. which makes her sad and makes her down the rest of her first drink before she sets in on the second. stupid emotions. ] I had a little machine you could plug into the TV. Laurel and I killed it with the Spice Girls.

[supertardiness]

Nice.

[Because you can't really say anything else when they're killing it with the Spice Girls.]

I did karaoke with my friend Caitlin. We were "on a case" technically, but we were also trying to have more fun.

[withasouvenir]

Did you sing... Summer Nights? [ just a very perceptive guess. ]

[supertardiness]

[She is very perceptive.]

Yep. That's the one.

[He sighs softly.]

I miss her. She would get such a kick out of the Hoard labs.

[withasouvenir]

Maybe she'll show up one day. Sara did, out of the fucking blue. Made all the weirder since... she's dead.

[supertardiness]

[His eyes widen a bit at that because yeah. That's something Felicity left out of the welcome package.]

Seriously? How?

[withasouvenir]

How is she alive again or how did she die? I don't know the answer to either. Laurel said she got in with some bad people, but it wasn't like I was going to press. Sara had already died, for us, we buried her. It's definitely worse the second time around.

[supertardiness]

[Barry's face softens a bit, because he knows even less about Sara's situation than Thea does, beyond the fact that Caitlin was running some texts for Felicity about it.]

I'm sorry.

[withasouvenir]

[ welcome to thea's life of "everyone dies". she shrugs, offering barry a thin smile. ]

She's alive now, so I'm trying not to dwell. Third chances are real.

[supertardiness]

[Barry nods in agreement.]

I guess with stuff like the Veil, anything is possible.

[And as he says that, Barry's name gets called from the front of the club.]

Looks like that's me!

[And he will down the rest of his drink before heading up to the front.]

[withasouvenir]

Good luck! Or, break a leg, whatever I'm supposed to say! [ pushing past her sad sara feelings, she claps loudly as barry takes the tiny little stage. ]

[supertardiness]

[And up Barry will bounce as the familiar chords of the song start, and when Barry starts to sing he is not terrible. Really not terrible (perform sing 17).

He's clearly having a good time with it too, so enjoy it, Thea.]

[withasouvenir]

[ with a will save of a whole four, thea is clearly fucking endeared by his performance and song choice, nose crinkling into a grin as the song comes to an end. uptown girl is basically her theme song, she is slightly biased. ]

Oh my god, Barry, that was awesome!

[supertardiness]

[He gives a slight bow as he makes his way back to their seat, grinning as he does.]

Why thank you.

[He'll feel embarrassed about it when he's sober, but for right now, he's just riding the high. He'll turn to plop down in his chair after that, as they call Thea up next.]

Your turn.

[withasouvenir]

[ oh right, she forgot she had to do that. she heads up with no hesitation, though, channeling her wild youth. she's not as good as barry, but well, he had adorable jersey boys dance moves. regardless, thea kills the rap (perform: sing 16) and takes her due applause at the end, throwing her hands up with glee the way sandra bullock does after she knees benjamin bratt in the junk in miss congeniality. ]

[supertardiness]

[And Barry will be there to laugh and cheer her on because he is that kind of friend. He's totally grinning when she gets back, holding up his hand for a high five.]

Nice work, Miss Queen.

[withasouvenir]

[ high five! they're so dumb. ]

Why thank you, Mr. Allen. I'm pretty impressive.

[supertardiness]

Agreed.

[And there are probably more drinks. Because they have clearly not had enough yet.]

So how many more pubs are we going to keep crawling to?

[withasouvenir]

I was just going to go until one of us puked. We can go to the next one though, there's one down the street giving shots away.

[supertardiness]

[He nods in agreement.]

Sure! Let's do it. Unless you want to go again?

[withasouvenir]

No, nope, once was enough, I feel fulfilled with karaoke. [ she bounces up from the seat again, the tiniest bit of a wobble as she straightens up. ] Let's go!

[ TO THE NEXT BAR THEY GO. ]
