“Congratulations!” Nicolette said happily, her dainty hands giving a little clap. “Or we can do shots and have a drink and dance,” the blonde offered up, brows raised. “However you want to celebrate. You deserve it.”
“Thank you! It felt like forever, but it’s finally done,” she smiled, showing a sense of pride. “Okay, all of that sounds amazing and I think we need to do it. Let’s make this a fun girl’s night out.”

“Really? That’s exciting,” Jam said, smiling. “I still haven’t actually done that yet, I started on a student visa and now I’m on a working one, it would probably be easier to just become a citizen, but my mother would be devastated if I gave up my Egyptian citizenship, so maybe I’ll wait for a while.” He checked his watch, he still had about two hours before he needed to go to work and he liked to have a drink before going to the club. “We can have a drink, but you’re celebrating, so I’m buying, whatever you want, it’s on me.”
“Yeah, I don’t really think my parents care about that. I’ll always be Hungarian, but I want the benefits of the US. You know, like voting and such. Things I couldn’t do as an immigrant. I’ve also been here forever so it was about time,” she nodded in thought, giving a soft shrug. “Are you sure? I would feel bad if you did.”

“Congratulations,” Jon raised a shot in her direction and tipped it back. He was going to drink it anyway, but this gave him an excuse, plus, she was going to buy him another one. “Of course,” Jon slid down the bar next to her and smiled, “It must be nice, I get ta’ apply for t’e first time t’is year. Which is nice, but I’m not full confident t’at I can pass t’e tests and shit.” Jon had started out on a student visa, and was now on his work visa, but had no actual plans to leave. So, he’d have to at some point. “Pick your poison.”
“I’ve been here for over twenty years, but I really just focused on school and didn’t really think to do anything till a few years ago,” she nodded, giving a small smile. “It really wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. But I crammed as if it was my nursing school final.” It was the reason she needed to drink tonight. “Um, tequila. Top shelf. Then whiskey on the rocks for me and whatever he’s having for him.”

Harper looked over at her as she spoke. Smiling, she nodded. “Yeah, you definitely need to celebrate. More than happy to help you out.” She was thankful she didn’t have to move countries, but moving states was a pain enough. She had seen the process and it was one she didn’t want to take part in.
“Good. I definitely need it. I didn’t realize how hard it was till I started the process and it took a few years. Didn’t think I was going to get it at first,” she sighed as she ran a hand through her hair, letting the hand move to the glass of whiskey she had. “Now I can actually relax and have fun with no stress.”

Hearing that the other was finally an American citizen had the other very happy for her. Colin knew it was a special moment and he figured it must have been hard, taken a lot of hard work as well as determination to get this. “Congratulations. The next three rounds are on me cause we’re celebrating.” He chuckled. “As for dancing, heck yes. We are gonna have a blast.”
“Thank you. Oh, you’re sweet. I’ll owe you. Seriously,” the Hungarian smiled over at him. It still hasn’t truly sunk in that she can call herself an American, just finding out earlier today. Especially when it took so long for her to get to this point. “Oh good. You better be a good dancer. I’ll be sad if you aren’t.”

Nodding her head, she felt so happy for the other. It was only when she offered to get the drinks that the woman shook her head and said, “Oh no. These drinks are on the house for you. I’m so proud.” She then clapped her hands before she went behind the bar and asked, “Okay so before we go dancing…tell me what drink you’d like.”
A smile formed as she looked over at the woman. It was something Tori really just wanted to put on a billboard with how long the process took. “I would feel bad, though. You should know I’ll feel bad if you do that.” Hazel eyes looked over at her for a moment, giving a small tilt of her head, giving into the woman. “Whiskey. Anything with whiskey.”

“His tone implied it. I don’t mind meeting people for coffee if it’s work related.” Ella said with a small shrug before she took a sip of her coffee. Ella laughed softly as she looked at the women. “I’ll be sure to pass your number on.”
“Not being the bad guy or the thing that goes against your thoughts. Devil’s something, but I mean, it could just be the person’s tone. I had a coworker that just sounded mean when she was the nicest person. She just had that voice, you know?” She gave a shrug. She really wasn’t that great with adults. She preferred children. “Thank you. Much needed.”
theoneandonlybuzz
“I used to tell people my middle name was ‘Danger.’ I think it must’ve been somethin’ I heard on TV, you know? I don’t have a middle name. And if I did, it’d be something like Buster or Hank.” Buzz shrugged his shoulders and offered a shake of his head. “They say the best revenge is livin’ well, though, right? Just gotta wait around for that to happen! I’m gonna be rich and super famous.” He smiled a little more brightly but seemed genuinely optimistic by the sentiment. “We didn’t live together or nothing, so you know, we were mostly just buyin’ our own things. But I’m not so good at ‘em either either. Relationships, I mean. Lord knows I have enough, but they just don’t really ever pan out. Bad luck,” he continued with a sigh. It made him feel low sometimes. “That’s smart! I never thought of that. I just tip over the whole big Costco one every time and spill it everywhere.” Buzz now appeared sincerely enthused by these new possibilities. He laughed. “I mean, you don’t gotta. I feel better about it already. I’ll buy you a drink, though, if you wanted. Because that’ll me feel even more better too.”
“Mine is Aliz. I think my parents went for simplistic when it came to my middle name. I guess it’s kind of like how Anne is,” she gave a small shrug in thought. She never really knew why they picked that name. It wasn’t like she really cared to know, anyway. “I’m usually the heartbreaker, so I guess the guy would be the one wanting to do revenge. Try to show I messed up, which I do a lot.” More than she wanted to admit. “I only had one. It was good. But it scared me too much and I ran. Sex is just easier for me. No feelings. Don’t even know the name most of the time. I don’t think I’m meant for a relationship. Just sex.” Tori gave a small nod, shrugging off the lonely feeling she tend to feel when she thought about it. It was why she has two dogs. They help push those thoughts away. “Yeah, I didn’t trust myself with them, so I bought one here and then just keep refilling it. Plus it’s then cheaper cause you’re still getting the wholesale, you know?” A small smile formed on the Hungarian, her eyes looking up at him. “Okay. Fine. I’ll owe you next time, though, deal?”
“Guess who is now officially an American citizen?” Viktoria smiled bright as she gave a little dance at the bar. It took forever, but she finally was free of any visas that she had. She truly didn’t realize how much went into it until she started the process three years ago. “I want to celebrate. Do you want to take a shot with me? Or I can buy you and drink and we can dance? Please celebrate with me,” she looked over at the person with puppy eyes that stayed with the smile. @chicagcstart

Jasmine was currently in creative limbo. The itch to concoct some new scents for her shop without much ideas on where to start for basics or even perhaps a theme. Nails tapped at her small notebook she always kept handy. Restless. “Hey, tell me some of your favorite smells. Like, in the world. Ever. One you’d like to maybe bring up and smell whenever you can in your own home, for instance.” @chicagcstart
Thinking for a moment, the Hungarian pushed her lips to the side. “Honestly, I like candles that smell like baked goods. I’m currently burning a sugar cookie one and it makes my place smell amazing. But I also love lavender with something sweet like marshmallow that kind of balances the lavender, you know?”

Ella smiled and nodded her head in thanks, grabbing her coffee. Ella held one out to her friend. “So like I was saying. I was trying to gather information on my client and do all the legal stuff I have to do. When my client turns to me and asks me out for coffee.” Ella said as she reached up and brushed a strand of blonde hair out her eyes. “I just froze, I didn’t know what to say. Which is dumb right? Because clearly it’s a breach of so many rules.”
“Did he ask in a romantic way or just as friends? Maybe it’s easier for them to talk over coffee cause it’s a more relaxed environment, you know?” The Hungarian at least felt that way. She hated stuffy offices. “Was he cute? You could always send him my way.”
“Do they have a manual on how to understand fuck boys? Because all of the messages I’ve gotten on this absolutely trash of an app my friend set me up on confuse the shet out of me.” Mak groaned softly, glancing at the newest notifications on her phone. “I’ve kept it around this long for some humor, but its just gotten weirder overtime. I think some of these are supposed to be pick up lines, but I have no idea at this point.” She shook her head before letting out a dry chuckle, slipping her phone away. “And apparently my new staple courtesy of my friend is I taste like pineapple so that’s fun. Anyways, that’s my fun experience with dating apps...I can see why most don’t like to use them. Have you?” @chicagcstart

“Trashy dating apps are honestly only good for a hook up. I’ve never met a person on there that actually wanted something more than sex,” Tori shrugged in thought. “I had one guy send me the weirdest emoji and asked what I thought about it and I literally had no clue what to say, so I kind of just said that you’re off your rocker for sending it and he said that it shows him what kind of person you are. Which it was oddly true. After that, I just deleted the app.” She still didn’t understand that conversation. “I mean, you could always add that to your bio.”

Aaron quickly ordered the glass of wine and another glass of whiskey for himself, he would have brought the whole bottle if they’d let him, it had been a rough day. “Yeah, I’m an anchor at WGN, I worked as a field reporter for 23 years, but I had a heart attack a few years back and had to switch to something a little less stressful. I’m still getting used to it, but it could be a lot worse. What about you? What do you do?”
Giving a nod as she listened, the Hungarian gave a smile. “That actually sounds kind of cool, to be honest. Even if you’re not on the field anymore. You have the right voice for it, I think. Like that general American accent that everyone understands. No one wouldn’t be able to really understand me if I did that,” she smiled softly as she took a drink of wine. “Oh, I’m a nurse. I work in the NICU, so my days are spent with little babies. I love it. Makes me feel like I’m doing something good every day I’m at work.” She smiled in thought. “But the past few days I’ve been doing twelve hour shifts and that just takes a lot out of you. I feel like I’ve been living in the hospital instead of my own place.”

“Northwestern? That place sure seems to be one hell of a drawcard.” Harrison knew a handful of doctors who had moved to the city to take jobs there, so it was never a surprise to find out about another one. The place seemed to be pretty popular. “NICU, huh? I can’t imagine some of the stuff you’ve gotta deal with in there. Sometimes I forget how small babies are. My son is only six but it’s hard to believe he was ever tiny, the kid just won’t stop growing.”
“I definitely did not want to move here when he got the job, but I slowly adjusted. Then I went to Northwestern for my degree, so I guess I got used to the college faster than I care to admit,” Tori gave a small smile. She knew deep down coming to America was a great thing for her, but she still hated moving at the age they did. She wasn’t old enough to truly understand what was going on. “Yeah, it’s hard, but I love holding them and just taking care of them, but it’s hard to see them go through some of the things they do. When they go home, though, I feel amazing to see them healthy and happy. And it helps with any sort of baby fever that could possibly form.” A smile formed on her face as he spoke. “I hear that a lot. I think they call it growing like a weed? I think that’s the right saying. Six is kindergarten right?”

Oh! That made way more sense, that Viktoria knew what a drag queen was but not the English verbage. Celeste put a hand to her heart, laughing. “Oh my god, you had me nervous I was about to scare you. That you watched this whole thing and found out-” She giggled, shaking her head as she took another sip of her cocktail. “Aw, well thank you, hon. Don’t feel stupid! Every culture has different phrases for things- and hey, that’s why we perform, so you don’t have to!” She teased with a wink. “Want to do a shot with me?”
“Oh, no. It makes sense now. I wonder where the term came from, though. Do you know? I’m not being mean, but Americans tend to give things some weird names. It took a while for me to figure out spirit animal.” Wow she probably was sounding like a complete idiot at this point. She was really hoping she wasn’t going to scare them away. That was the last thing she wanted. “True. I did ballet as a child, but that ended when I was told to do a solo. Wasn’t a fan of that.” A small smirk formed as she nodded. “Make it strong and I’ll be happy.”

This was very unusual for Aaron, but he was never one to shy away from a new experience and having dinner with a stranger he called by accident seemed fun enough and if they didn’t have a good time, they’d just move on, nothing bad would come of it.
“I totally understand, I’m coming off a 15 hour shift and I can’t think of anything but my stomach and then going to bed. Just give it your best shot, don’t worry, they know who I am there our news teams spends a lot of time there.”
He didn’t know what she wanted to drink, so he ordered himself a beer and busied himself with texting his granddaughter’s nanny his plans for the night until she arrived and Aaron stood up to greet her. “It’s nice to meet you Viktoria or Tori, I’m Aaron, it’s nice to meet you, thanks for accepting my rather bizarre invitation, I know it was odd, but what’s life without taking a few chances, right? Can I order you a drink?”
A small smile formed as she shook his hand.”Oddly this is not the weirdest interaction I’ve ever had, so don’t worry. It’s nice to meet you, though, Aaron,” slowly moving to sit down, hazel eyes moved up at him. “Oh, um just pinot noir. Thank you.” Setting her bag down on the floor beside her, she adjusted to get more comfortable. “So, you said news teams? Are you an anchor?”

Celeste was admittedly surprised. Drag queens existed all over the world so hearing that someone didn’t know what one was…it was a bit surprising. She was used to people asking invasive questions or being confused, but not to that point. Still, she brushed it off with a laugh, nodding. “A drag queen is a performance artist, normally a man dressed up as a woman. And they perform- so they lipsync or sing, or dance, or tell jokes… there’s all types of queens.” She grinned. “It’s a time where we can be creative and express ourselves, dance and have fun, drink, flirt, joke. But it’s also a bit of an art form, now. There are pageants, there’s competitions… songs, big shows in Las Vegas…” She laughed. “But basically, as long as you had a good night, that’s all we care about.” She smiled. “Does that help at all?”
Once she heard the description, the brunette face palmed herself, shaking her head. “Okay, I know now. I just didn’t realize that that’s the name. Some words for me to translate in my head just doesn’t make sense, so I get confused easily. But I know what it is now.” She really felt like an idiot now that she thought about it. “I feel stupid. But you were great up there.” She definitely couldn’t do it. “The stage and I don’t get along. It’s better I watch than get on it.”
