bloody rock god

[ooc:
The withdrawls continue. Bar makes Charlie eat soup.

Gavroche sidles over, but since Charlie has nothing worth stealing they end up talking instead. Charlie is interested in meeting Meg once he learns she's a dancer, buys Gavroche soup. (and napkins--it's messy), and tries to explain rock'n'roll. Gavroche is the first dead person he's met at Milliways.

Meg joins the conversation. Charlie remarks that dancers have lovely limbs. They talk about mutal friends: namely Penny and her turtle, Raph. Charlie is particuarly interested in Raph's anger issues. Meg is not impressed by his profession and renames his music as stones and bread (which cracks the mun up so she has used it frequently since.) Charlie tries to demonstrate how rock'n'roll makes him feel but has trouble staying upright. Meg recommends he see a healer, and Gavroche advises him on who to avoid.

Penny and Charlie talk about his withdrawl symptoms but Charlie insists he's okay. Penny teases him about his fondness for tea. Charlie asks her if she knows where to find Bernard, whom he's been told to talk to about a job. He wonders what the wages are to convince angels and gods to work at Milliways. Penny asks about her song and pulls Charlie to the piano, but Charlie spots Bernard and asks for a kiss for luck before going to ask him for a job. He gets it, at least for a trial period, and when he goes back to Penny he says she's his good luck charm, and plays her a song. They talk about all the different time periods at Milliways, and Penny wants to know about groupies in the future. Charlie writes his mention in her book to come: "Knew Charlie. Lovely chap." Penny offers him more than a sentence: Charlie refuses because he's been too ill. She tells him why she became a groupie and he realizes she's the first groupie he's had real conversations with. He plays "Penny Lane" for her to comfort her.

[ooc:
Charlie gets dinner from Dionysius and is happy to meet his first god. Dionysius points out the muse of music and Charlie wonders where he's seen her before.

Mainly because she's a pretty woman and alone [and because the muns know each other :D], Charlie introduces himself to Moiraine. He tells her of the plane crash and how he ended up at Milliways. She explains being Bound and why a person may be Bound to the bar. He asks her if she's an angel, god or demon and bets she's an angel. Moiraine is amused, serenely, and demonstrates the powers of saidar. Charlie is gobsmacked [because the the mun likes saying gobsmacked] and Moiraine wonders if he felt something more. He didn't but wants to see more, but still is mildly freaked out at the demonstration of her powers and goes out to the lake to straighten out his head.

On the advice of Moiraine and Dionysus Charlie introduces himself to Tere, the muse of music. She explains what the muses are and he wonders if he's heard her sing in his dreams. As he leaves she gives him a bass guitar.

In conversation with Penny Charlie learns of Faustus and Gavroche and is puzzled at all the kids running around. Penny tells him about the tab board and gives him a tour, and then they leave to go for a walk around the lake.]
