Alexander walks over and takes a seat at the bar sighing deeply as Bella pours him a shot of his preferred cinder fruit punch. Nodding his thanks he picks up the shot and downs it hard.

"Already on the punch this evening dear brother? A stressful night is it?" Lucita comments from his left.

Turning his head, Alexander can see Lucita sitting to his left.

"Something like that dear sister..." Alexander downs another shot which is poured for him.

"Remind me why we fight again?" Lucita asks drinking her own bottle of cinder fruit punch.

"Because you're annoying maybe?" Alexander replies coughing.

"Oh come now, we both know I simply love to tease you like all hell." Lucita chuckles taking a second swig of her drink.

"Yeah, in public..." Alexander drinks a third heavy shot.

"There is that, yes. Other than that we really don't have anything to argue about. I suppose that freaks people out more." Lucita comments smiling.

"What? That in public most times I can't stand the very sight of you and on the odd occasion when you act like a normal sister we seem like a perfectly normal sibling pairing? I still get mind fucked by that, never mind everybody else." Alexander rolls his eyes and sighs.

"You and I both know that what everybody else thinks doesn't mean shit. Least if they have nothing to do with us that is." Lucita states coldly.

"I suppose but some opinions matter like that of friends." Alexander replies making Lucita cough violently on her drink.

"I don't have friends, you fucking know this, you dolt." Lucita states as she sighs in amusement.

"Mainly because you repel people, dear sister..." Alexander rolls his eyes.

"I wouldn't change for anything, you know this. For all our bullshit, for all we endure, we're the Night family, fuck all else." Lucita states before taking a heavy swig.

"Words our family seem to live by like a religious passage." Alexander sighs taking his own heavy swig.

"The holy book of Night? Now that would be something I'd read." Lucita chuckles.

Starlight runs over to the bar panting slightly as she bends over to catch her breath making both Lucita and Alexander stare at her confused. As soon as she gets her bearings, Starlight stands up and looks at the pair oddly.

"You okay there?" Alexander asks raising an eyebrow.

"Y-yeah... I should have gone around the dance floor... It's bucking impossible to navigate that shit..." Starlight states taking a breath.

"Worried about me were you?" Alexander asks making Starlight sigh.

"I was more concerned for everyone else at this bar if I'm honest." Starlight takes the seat between the two and moves it a little bit back so their view is not interrupted.

"I doubt anyone has to worry about us." Lucita states getting to halfway down her bottle.

"I hope nobody makes it our problem anyway..." Alexander adds in reaching his own halfway point.

"So, I was right?" Starlight asks looking confused.

"Right about what?" Alexander asks also looking confused.

At that moment a drunken Hydra House student wanders over and starts trying to talk to Starlight but gets ignored.

"About if Lucita is really that bad?" Starlight reminds Alexander of her cursed line.

"Oh... Well, it depends on the day if I'm honest..." Alexander replies rolling his eyes.

"So, I was right?" Starlight asks again.

The student attempts for a few more tries to get the mare's attention but still fails to as she is engrossed in her own conversation.

"I'm that bad any day of the week little Starlight." Lucita chuckles.

"Hey! I'm trying to talk to you here! Ya, little *hic* bitch-" The student blurts out.

Finally having enough Lucita and Alexander in unison rotate themselves into a joint punch which smashes the student squarely in the face sending him unconscious onto the ground.

"We are having a conversation!" Alexander and Lucita state in unison.

Both straighten their blazers and sit down to finish their drinks making Starlight look surprised.

"What?" They both ask looking at Starlight's expression.

"You two are definitely siblings..." Starlight giggles.

Alexander and Lucita look at each other before shivering slightly.

"I think I need more drink..." Lucita states blinking a few times.

"I'll second that myself..." Alexander states alongside his sister.

Bella serves them two more bottles each for good measure before moving on to other customers.

"How close are you two anyway? It's only been a week or so since she got here." Lucita asks taking a gulp of her new bottle.

"It's a working relationship between mage and familiar." Alexander states taking a sip of his own drink.

"What I heard this morning was not a fucking 'working relationship'." Lucita states with a raised eyebrow.

Alexander spits his drink onto the bar while both he and Starlight wear a thick scarlet blush.

"T-the fuck is that supposed to mean?!" Alexander states with wide eyes.

"I mean that if Edward hadn't of came home with Twilight you two would have got really freaky real fast by the shit I heard half awake this fucking morning." Lucita states annoyed.

"I-it wasn't even like that!" Alexander points a finger at Lucita in defence.

"Of course, shocking her tits is perfectly professional in the massage workplace!" Lucita replies with increased volume.

"That's beside the point!" Alexander replies looking at Starlight for help.

"I honestly have no defence here..." Starlight states blushing harder.

"Oh fuck off! You were enjoying it!" Alexander turns his attention to Starlight.

"Yeah but you're the one who cast a shit sound barrier!" Starlight snaps in defence.

"Fuck! You have a point!" Alexander turns back to the bar and downs his second bottle of drink.

"Oh dear brother, messing with you is truly too much fun." Lucita smiles as she reaches the bottom of her bottle.

Twilight stares at the empty bottle in front of her, deep in thought while Edward had his arms crossed, also thinking.

"Do you think their minds are fried yet?" Robert asks leaning towards Adam.

"It's hard to tell..." Adam replies leaning back towards Robert.

"Getting there..." Edward states to the pair.

"Why does everything seem so complicated? Stupid book..." Twilight lays her head on the table sighing deeply.

"Least the uniforms are fashionable." Edward comments.

"A notable plus but it doesn't make the situation any better... Though I suppose we could have ended up in worse places with much worse magicians." Twilight adds groaning lightly.

"You could have also been in Golem House..." Adam shakes his head slightly.

"Or Valkyrie House..." Robert states making the two shiver.

"What's so bad about those two houses? I notice you didn't mention Hydra House." Twilight sits up rubbing her nose.

"Golem House isn't all as bad as Chris but the majority are." Adam begins the explanation.

"Don't even get us started on the stuck up bitches of Valkyrie House... I mean, not all of them are that bad but the majority are." Robert adds yawning.

"So, Hydra House, are your allies or something?" Twilight asks looking confused.

"Fuck off." Robert and Adam state in unison.

"Hey, it's not like we explained the social circle thing to them yet." Edward states frowning.

"Are you guys stupid? That should have been one of the first things you explained about our academy..." Adam rolls his eyes sighing deeply.

"Hydra House is by far the furthest you can get from an ally in this place." Robert states pushing his empty bottle away.

"They are our opposite element, even in this place tension is high between most of the houses. You can't deny many don't care and have friends crossing all four houses but in general, crossing elements is frowned upon." Edward explains looking at Twilight.

Suddenly Starlight runs over to the booth panting heavily wearing a panicked expression.

"Starlight? What's wrong?" Twilight asks shifting towards the mare.

Starlight wheezes slightly still trying to get the words out, making weird hand gestures.

"The bar is out of alcohol?" Robert asks but Starlight shakes her head waving her hands again.

"The bank of Kilgharah has run out of peanuts." Adam states in confidence getting a twisted expression from Starlight.

"There is a political coup being planned in the club and it's up to the student powers combined to foil a plot that could turn our fair academy upside down by way of reviving an otherworldly visitor who will use untold magics to take over Kilgharah?" Edward states excitedly making the other four turn and look at him weirdly.

"This is not a fucking anime." Adam states shaking his head and sighing at Edward.

"As interesting as that sounds... Lucita and Alexander have gotten into an intensely heated argument with a Hydra House male who looks like he was hit by a frozen lamppost and bears a very stupid quiff?" Twilight asks making Starlight's jaw drop slightly.

"How the buck did you even guess that?" Starlight asks finally catching her breath.

"I didn't need to guess, I can bucking see it!" Twilight states pointing behind Starlight.

The group can see the before described scene which makes their eyes widen as they scramble to get out of the booth.

"I suppose we back them up?" Twilight asks Robert, Adam and Edward.

"Fuck that, I'm out." Adam states quickly leaving towards the club entrance.

"My girlfriend wanted me to see her tonight so, I'm out too." Robert states making his own retreat.

"Looks like it's just us then." Edward rolls his eyes as the three head in the direction of the bar.
