Jeff "Joker" Moreau | Mass Effect

- I have just as much right to be here as the next jerk that pulls into space dock! Watch the arm!

[it should come as no surprise that wherever joker is - which just happens to be inside the afterlife club - that he's causing something of a fuss. and by causing a fuss, we mean he's conveniently left his credit chit on the normandy and has been trying to get out of paying for drinks.

and the turian bartender has had enough. clearly.

which is why he's in the process of being hauled toward the nearest exit, hat sitting just slightly to the side due to the haste of some particularly overzealous bodyguards yanking him up out of his chair.]
This is bullshit!

Hey.

[she doesn't have to raise her voice. it's amazing how a forceful hand on an arm and a hard look can get a couple of guys to back down. 'don't fuck with Aria' may be Omega's number one and possibly only rule, but nobody's really looking to mess with Shepard, either.

thankfully, she has hers. not that she really expected to need it where she had been headed, but. force of habit. so she waves her omni-tool over to pay, and sends the bartender and bouncers alike away with another look.

and sits down, sighing, but smirking at Joker nonetheless.]


And what happened to your 'personal assistance mech'? Or do they not serve her kind here.

[when he hears that voice, his head practically snaps up - and he can't help but to smirk when he sees that it's shepard. because seriously, this is one place he really shouldn't be alone, but edi had had things to see to back on the ship and he hadn't felt like waiting around.

once his debts are paid, he drops down into a chair next to his commander, smiling back at her in that i really should thank you for that but i'm just gonna be sarcastic instead way of his.]
She has things she wanted to do back on the Normandy, and I didn't feel like waiting around. I don't drag her everywhere, Commander.

Is that so? [the grin is so much bigger, and her eyebrows shot up in a mock surprise as she folds her arms at him] I'll have to alert Allers immediately. The whole galaxy will be shocked at the news.

Don't you go telling that media leech about my social life! [he scowls at her, but it's not entirely genuine, and he just ends up waving his hands and snorting.] I don't know why you let her on board in the first place. Twenty credits says you end up punching her before this is all over.

[with a sardonic sort of grimace, she nods in agreement]

Probably. So far, she's been a great boost to civilian morale and hasn't pushed any boundaries.

[propping her chin on one hand, one eyebrow lifted, she continues:]

Though honestly, Joker? If she hasn't put it together just by poking around the ship, you get a medal.

[Woah, that is definitely not her idea of a good time. Hawke watches them try to drag the man off and she jumps to her feet, wheeling over and following. She manages to catch up before they drag him out.]

Hey! [That gets their attention. Which isn't good. Quick, think of something...] There you are! I've been looking all over for you. Did you lose your card again?

[The one bodyguard gives her a skeptical look and she pulls out her credit chit, flashing it. There's not much on it, but...] Thank you so much for finding him. I'll take care of things from here, if you don't mind.

[personal profile] airraid 2013-01-24 01:40 am (UTC)(link)
[who the -

who the hell cares. he's rolling with it just as quick as anything else, waving her over even as she approaches. because if this gets him out of being thrown out? you bet your ass he's going to make sure it works.]
See, this is what you get for leaving me to my own devices. I just get myself into trouble.

[it's said cheekily, of course, and he turns to the guy holding his arm, raising his eyebrows at him.] We cool? You gonna let me go now?

[which just gets him shoved in this mystery savior's direction, and he can't help but to huff out a laugh of thanks.] You really saved my ass. I'd say let me buy you a drink, but .. uh. Yeah.
unyieldingly: <lj user=corelite> (I'll dance myself up)

[personal profile] unyieldingly 2013-01-24 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
Had you stuck close, you wouldn't be in this mess.

[And she most certainly does not want to get involved with the bodyguards in a real fight, even if she could light their clothes on fire and send them screaming. Hawke waits for them to leave, holding out a hand to stop her new acquaintance from potentially falling over. She half-smiles.]

It's all right. I don't think it'll cover much, though, so we should probably slip out before they figure that out.

Hey, it's not my fault it's easy to lose you in a crowd! C'mon!

[but he does wait until those asshole are out of earshot before he audibly deflates with relief. he'd been pretty sure that he'd been about to be thrown out on his ass with a couple of broken bones just for his trouble.

at her idea, though, he's quick to motion toward the nearest exit, wondering if they really can just slip out the back without being noticed. he's heard about it being done before, but .. it's hard to be stealthy when all you can do is shuffle about.]
Let's go, and I'll find a way to make it up to you sooner or later. Seriously. I didn't need any broken shins.

[personal profile] hacksaw 2013-01-24 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
Really, Jeff. I turn my back on you for five minutes and you get yourself into trouble.

[Really, Joker. She leveled a bit of a less-than-pleased look at the pilot, then turned her attention to the turian bouncers, her voice firm but polite. She was no-nonsense as only a military doctor could be.]

I'll pay for his tab and take things from here, thank you.

BRB SCREAMING OMG.

Doc .. [he would be holding his hands out, here, if he weren't in the middle of being held between two ugly as hell batarian bodyguards. so he can only grin at her sheepishly, tilting his head to the side and doing his best to shrug.] Gotta keep you on your toes, don't I? Haven't you learned that by now?

[once she pays his tab, though, they let him go - though it isn't with any extent of grace, and he damn near falls flat on his ass.] .. Efficient, aren't they? Sheesh.

:)

[personal profile] hacksaw 2013-01-25 07:10 am (UTC)(link)
Being your doctor is an education, if nothing else. I imagine I learn something every day.

[She took a step forward when he stumbled; there for support if he wanted it, but not about to force him to take it. There if he needed her, as she so often was.]

They've had practice, and on worse than you. Let's not give them any more, shall we?

[ Getting a lackluster pain in the ass job was checked off her arrival list pretty easily, and so she's taking out garbage in Afterlife when she catches most of the exchange when he starts protesting. Oh that does not look like the pleasant way to exit. Well, if you're getting tossed out, she'll slip out, skirting to the side as the bodyguards pass.

Claudia leans forward, and offers a gloved hand just in case he needs a little help. No one else seems to be doing it. ]


Aw man... That really sucked. Are you okay? [ Then quietly chiding herself. ] No, of course not. Yeah, Claudia, getting tossed out of the doors — perfectly okay.
airraid: (❝and twice as loud as reason❞)

[personal profile] airraid 2013-01-25 04:07 am (UTC)(link)
[he's exceptionally lucky their rough handling of him doesn't end in any fractures, and once he's out, it's all he can do to keep from doing anything more than yelling back through the doors:] See if I ever tell Shepard to come back in here! Good luck with your next invasion, assholes!

[he's so full of shit that it's a wonder his eyes aren't turning brown, but .. that's neither here nor there.

he makes it a point to brush himself off, and while he could probably use the help in pulling himself up completely, he waves that offered hand off with a huff, though it isn't meant impolitely.]
You kidding? Never been better. Getting thrown out on my ass by a couple of ugly bastards was at the top of my list of things to do today. Now that that's done, all I have to do is figure out a cure for cancer and I'm golden.

[ Well, you look okay, so Claudia's going to smile a bit at the crack and shake her head. She straightens as she retracts her hand. She might just be above or below drinking age. It's hard to tell, but she's got a little redhead spunk going on. They were pretty ugly. ]

Only two things on your list? You'll be done by lunch. That doesn't leave much excitement for the rest of the day.

Who's 'Shepard' anyway?

[Reianna is actually just outside said exit when this guy gets dragged out the door and deposited there. She stares, blinking, a little wide-eyed...

But she approaches, offers him a hand in case he needs help.
]

That looked like a whole lot of fun. What happened?

Batarians are just mad they're the ugliest race in the galaxy, and I called 'em on it. [he does take her hand when she extends it, though, pausing briefly to brush himself off before he offers her a smirk.] Nah .. they already know that, but I swear, you try to get out of paying a tab once in your life and they act like it's the biggest crime.

[and he shrugs.] S'life, though .. at least I didn't break anything on the way out.
bladedance: (I could be blue)

[personal profile] bladedance 2013-01-25 05:55 am (UTC)(link)
Batarians... is that what they are? [She looked thoughtful for a second, curious, but then shook her head.] Sorry. New girl in town. ... Um, station.

[But she smiles slightly.] So what, is dodging a tab harder here?
