((Got it!))
"Excellent," she said with a grin, stopping to check out her pirate book before they headed out of the library. "Just, uh...maybe not whiskey this time, huh?" She winked at Jack.

"What's wrong with whiskey?" Tristan wondered, he actually enjoyed it...lots of it.
"Uh..." Jack shrugged and laughed nervously.

"Oh, nothing!" Tara assured him. "It's a very fine drink...at the right...time and place..." She bit her lip before she could dissolve into hopeless laughter, and decided a subject change was in order. "So do I get any more details?" she asked Tristan hopefully. "About your, uh...run-in with Ron?"

"You want full bloody details? Well...he won't be walking for awhile that's for sure..." Tristan said, he actually really did enjoy beating people up.

Tara's eyebrows rose slowly. She wasn't shocked; she was just picturing it. "The girls at the Pink Rose will be simply devastated."

"Oh yeah...probably for way longer than a week," Tristan smirked proudly.
Jack shook his head, "You're a sick man."
"I know," Tristan responded.

"At least you use your powers for good," she said brightly, smiling at Tristan and lacing her fingers through Jack's. Funny how she felt at ease with these newsies. They were supposedly nothing like her--they were rough-and-tumble street boys, she was a well-brought-up young lady. But they talked to her like she mattered. They weren't shocked when she drank or swore or bowed instead of curtseyed. They knew how to have a good time.
Jack, in particular, knew how to have a good time. She grinned wickedly to herself at the thought.

"I try to anyways," Tristan said with a shrug.
Jack smiled at Tara and have her hand a squeeze. The more he spent time with this girl the more comfortable he felt around her. He liked how random and spontaneous she was. He liked how she made him feel more lighthearted.

When they reached Irving Hall, Tara made a beeline for the bar. She figured it was rude to dance when Tristan was the odd man out. Drinking, however, was something everyone could do together. "Drinks on me?" she offered. "I owe you both." And I've got more money on me now than you'll make in a week.

"As long as it's payment for making that idiot squeal like a little girl than okay," Tristan said with smirk and leaned against the bar.
Jack was completely broke at the moment and didn't protest one bit.
"So uh...for your party on Saturday, do we gotta get dressed up and stuff?" asked Jack. It was quite obviously none of them owned a suit let alone a tuxedo.

"I'll give you our tailor's address," Tara offered casually, ordering a round of beers to start them off. "Don't worry, I'll warn him. Everyone can just pick out what they need from his shop and borrow it for the night." The image of Jack in a tux made her heart flutter. She briefly imagined Wraith in a satin gown, then told herself not to be stupid. Goblin and Wraith couldn't come to her ball; their mother might be there, for God's sake. She sipped the foam off the top of her beer.

"Wait a minut I gotta put on a hoity toity suit?" Tristan said and then chugged some beer. "I dunno...
"Oh come on, it'll be good to see you looking civilized for once." Jack said with a grin.
