a roleplay sample:
It wasn't at all displeasing when her shot of tequila came with a rather cute bartender. Zara gave him a quick, inconspicuous once-over as he was pouring her shot. No -- cute didn't really cover it -- ruggedly sexy seemed to pop into her mind as the proper way to describe him. His brief Irish accent, fake or not, didn't hurt either. I mean really, what girl didn't like an Irish accent, or for that matter, secretly wish some Gerard Butler-esque man would fall in love with her? (or was that just Zara? Whoops.) Cocking her head to one side unconsciously, Zara replied teasingly, "Well you do have tequila, don't you? Are you sure this is an Irish bar?" She grinned at him. It occurred to her that she didn't actually have the slightest clue whether or not Irish bars served tequila, since she'd never actually been to Ireland. Or did they just have Guinness and whiskey? That would be most unfortunate. Zara had nothing against whiskey, but tequila was kind of her drink.
Turns out the bartender's regular, accent-less voice wasn't bad either. It struck her as amusing that he assumed she was from somewhere else, although it was an easy mistake to make. She had virtually no trace of the local dialect/accent as many of those did who grew up here, because her parents weren't originally Hawaiian and many of her friends weren't either. And come to think of it, she had only been to Pot Of Gold maybe once in the past six months or so, and she was fairly certain he hadn't been working or she would have remembered him. Perhaps he hadn't been living here long? Or it was entirely possible he'd been living here for years; Honolulu wasn't exactly a small town. "Well, I haven't seen you around either, but something tells me you're the new kid on the block," Zara went out on a limb, smiling with her eyes but not with her mouth. "I'm from sunny Honolulu, born and raised!" she said blithely. Lifting her shot glass, she downed it quickly and then set the glass back down on the wooden countertop, sucking in a breath.
"Wait a minute, where's my lime?" Zara demanded, looking around. It was a little late for that, unfortunately. Damn it, she always forgot to ask for salt and a wedge of lime, somehow not remembering until after she'd taken the shot. Ah, well. Obviously she was used to the taste of straight tequila. Not that she was an alcoholic or anything, but when it came to hard alcohol, that's generally what Zara tended to drink. It just seemed to go down smoother than most anything else.
Zara followed the bartender's glance toward the group of happy drunken men singing away merrily. They were quite hard to ignore, but they didn't bother her. Wasn't the whole point of coming to a bar to get drunk and have a good time? She laughed. "Typical Irish men," she joked, even though she wasn't even sure any of those men were actually Irish. Oh well, everyone was Irish at Pot of Gold, right? Or everyone's Irish on St. Patty's Day? Something like that. Whatever.
