would love the company, especially since it is nice to have a drinking partner.

so too. She walks to Al and murmurs, " Do you know of any good bars to go to?"

shrugged and murmured, " Doesn't truly matter, as long as I can get a pint of good beer." She rarely went out to do much else except drink

_and dance.

wouldn't mind giving it a shot, since it would be something new to try.

tilted her head briefly before shrugging and following, murmuring, " Okay. Lead the way then."

shrugged and murmured, " Life's been... boring. Being doing a lot of work and keeping to myself. I don't want to bother anyone." She knew

_that her answer wasn't exactly good, but it is what had been happening. " How have you been doing?"

smiled a bit and murmured, " I don't want to force people to hang out with me. It's not how I am." She shook her head and leant into Al a

_bit in thanks. She appreciated him looking after her.

smiled at that and murmured softly, " Danke Alfred." She felt much better and was happy to be spending time with the superpower.

raised a slight eyebrow at the decoration but went in with him anyways. It seemed like a quaint place, which was a nice break.

rolled her eyes and pulled out her own id, trying to ignore the few whistles aimed her way. She was wearing slim jeans and a light grey

_sleeveless turtleneck.

joined him and stuck close, really uncomfortable with the attention. She saw them hand over the beers and lifted hers up, murmuring,

_" Cheers, um gutes Bier und guter Gesellschaft. To good beer and good company."

smiles slightly and takes a sip, blinking a bit and murmuring, " It's good... not as good as mein beer, but good." She took another sip,

_quite pleased with the taste.

chuckled and murmured, " Every one of us has our preferences. Mein is german beer, yours is american. I still like the beer I have though."

rolled her eyes before grinning. Ooh... she had a very interesting idea. " Maybe... if you go to Ocktober Fest with me in Lederhosen."

nodded and murmured, " Ja... but I'll get you a good, authentic set. I always go in a beer wench outfit anyways. I'll need the company."

giggled and murmured, " It is a german tradition, and one that I enjoy..."

smiles and murmured, " Danke... and I'll go on that beer tour with you."

smiled and murmured, " Maybe after today, ja? I want to enjoy my beer, and possibly a few more."

smiles and finished her beer, signaling for another of the same kind. She quite liked it and wasn't sure if they had her kind of beer.

blinked at the question and shook her head, murmuring, " I do not think I have learnt line dancing." She looked at the band with a bit of

_trepidation, wondering what Al meant by that question.

blinked at that and sighed softly, shaking her head and accepting it. She eyed the fries and stole two, chomping down on them with a hum.

finished her two fries and murmured, " Nein... nothing of true interest. Finished reading all my books, had a brief stint trying to buy

_dresses and chickening out. Cleaned my dogs and the house.... nothing really. You?" She liked this, talking about minor things... it was

_nice.

blinked at the England thing and murmured, " Arthur? You made a mess at his house? Wouldn't he and Ann get really pissed at you?" She was

_very curious, and wondered if Alfred and Arthur would fight the whole time at Ocktober Fest.

blinked and accepted it, murmuring, " Okay. If it's common place." She took another swig of her drink, feeling a tiny buzz build up.

listened, appreciating music, no matter what kind it was. She had gotten that from Austria... without being a snoot about it.

watches quietly, nursing her beer. She liked the music playing, but didn't really dance much. Sure, she learnt swing from Alfred, but that

_was a different matter.

smiles and finishes her beer, ordering another happily.

looked up at Al and nodded, murmuring, " Go ahead." She stretched a leg over the stool easily, no problems with the odd position, still

_drinking her beer and ordering another.

smiled at how delighted Alfred seemed and kept sipping her beer. A few guys came up to try to ask her for a dance, but she turned them down.

a softer grin and murmurs, " It looks like you were having fun."

blushed and murmured, " I don't want to embarrass you on the dance floor... but I suppose one dance." She finished her beer and twirled

_the bottle, uncertain if she had just done something stupid.

sighed and took Al's hand, trusting him to keep her from looking like too much of a fool.

looked up at Al and trusted him, biting her lower lip and copying him, stumbling a few times but picking it up.

smiled and nodded, murmuring, " Ja... it is fun." She kept dancing with him, content with how easy it seemed.

shrugged her shoulders, murmuring, " Doesn't matter to me, Al."

sighed and murmured, " A beer... then another dance I suppose."

thought about it and nodded, smiling a bit wryly at the idea of having a whiskey shot. It seemed interesting enough.

hummed and murmured, " To peace and happiness." She raised her beer and drank, enjoying the burn.

sighed in contentment, grinning slightly and murmuring, " Time for the shot." She grabbed the shot glass and drank it down, enjoying it.

licked her lips and grinned, one fairly similar to her schwester's as she murmured, " It has a nice burn."

hummed her agreement, feeling happily buzzed.

laughs and joins him in the dance, more relaxed now that she had more alcohol in her.

doesn't mind the dancing, not as much of a fan, but fine with it now.

blushes a bit but shrugs and takes his hand, murmuring, " Yeah... sure."

blushes a bit but doesn't look into it. Alfred just liked dancing and she was just tipsy enough to not care.

laughed and kept dancing with him, just having a ball.

laughs softly and says, " Danke for dragging me along. It was fun."

smiles and laughs, glad to have had fun with Alfred.

shrugs and murmurs, " Wurst if you have it?"

smiled at that, murmuring, " Sounds good then."

smiles at that and accepts the bratwurst when it comes, cutting it up and chowing down on it, humming in delight. Now that tasted good.

having a good time and enjoying the wurst.

finishes and thanks the bartender, also watching the others. It was a different experience here.

smiles a bit wryly and murmuring, " Interesting Alfred... it is a much nicer bar than the ones I go to. I normally see brawls in them or

_start one myself."

smiles softly and murmured, " If you ever want another brawl... just call. Here's my number." She wrote down her cell number on a piece of

_paper, handing it to Alfred.
