((OOC: Set directly after Losing Marbles thread))
Roulette was feeling good. Which was such a foreign feeling she didn't actually know what to do with herself. She'd never just been at a good place emotionally since...well, she couldn't really recall. Which was so very depressing that the quip about drinking on Megatron's time seemed like a damn fine idea. Just a few drinks. Besides, she was on her down time, technically speaking, and could do as she pleased as long as she didn't slight the Decepticons too badly.
A few drinks never hurt anyone.
Despite her outward calm, Roulette was still nervous about being at a neutral base. There was always a low-lying hum of wariness to her field when she was on the Nemesis and if anything, it hadn't left her here. Perhaps she was always going to be slightly worried about her lot in life no matter where she went. Thinking about it caused a redundant feedback loop about worrying. And she could only take so much worrying about worrying.
The bar seemed ok for a hole in the ground. As she wasn't being pelted with sand or course particulates, she was just fine with where she was. No tiny organic lifeforms were in danger of making themselves home in her plates. She suppressed the urge to shudder at the memory and delicately perched on a chair at the bar.
In a way she was reminded of her former life in Kaon. Sitting at seedy bars with atmosphere so dingy and hostile, one could feel tarnished from close proximity. How many times had she sat with her sister and drank crude rotgut and dreamed about their better futures? Shadow had had such high hopes for herself...
"I just wanted to live..." she muttered to herself and leaned on the counter, chin placed in the palm of her hand.
