[From here.]
You're taller than Damien? That's really fucking tall!
Do you have to duck your head when you go into buildings or inside the tour bus?
I'm walking to where you said---won't be long.

Jerry is taller than me.
Sometimes I do.
[Dominic leaned against the wall and watched the street. There weren't many people out so he imagined he would notice when Aleksi started approaching.]

Jerry is the bar owner, isn't he? Last time I was in that bar he had some trashy screaming blond attached to his arm.
[That was hilarious.]
Nearly there---oh, I can see you!
[And---Aleksi came waltzing up to meet up with Dominic.]
"No shit! You ARE really tall!"

"No shit! You ARE really tall!"
Yes, Jorgen.
[Dominic knew some people by description even if he had yet to meet them.]
Dominic stood up from where he was leaning on the wall and shrugged.
"Everyone...in... in my family are tall." It wasn't family but he didn't want to talk about hid time with the Ministry. He also had no idea what to do now. He didn't really hang out with people, aside from Damien who always directed them.

"Jorgen! That's his name. We got drunk one night and I woke up with someone's panties on my face."
Aleksi often got drunk and had been told off by his brother for near trashing the bar on that particular night. Einar was such a prissy glam queen.
"They are? My brother, Einar, is a bit taller than me. Not sure if you've met him yet. He's a glam queen who loves wine."

"Yes. Most are shorter than me." Or at least most of the others in the breeding program that Dominic had seen in passing.
"I haven't met many people yet." He had mostly been spending time with Martyn to try and get his head back together.

Aleksi smiled and wanted to take Dominic to a fun bar so they could hang out and get to know one another.
"Fancy coming to a bar with me? I know this one that's got neon lights outside and loads of fruity cocktails with dirty names."
Dominic would surely like it. At least, Aleksi thought so.

"Sure." Dominic wasn't opposed to a bar. "I don't get drunk."
Dominic stepped beside Aleksi to follow him to wherever this bar was.

"You---don't get drunk? Not even a little bit? Fuck, you must have a high tolerance to booze."
Aleksi got drunk a lot because he drank quickly and always chose the strong stuff. It was more fun that way, especially with friends. Dominic could still have fun even if he didn't get trashed.
"Come on, it's just down this way."
The Finn took Dominic's hand and began leading him down the Strip.

"I don't usually drink." Nevermind that he could have died for drinking where he used to live.
Dominic faltered as he stared down at the hand in his. He didn't really have much physical contact with people while in the Ministry unless he was taken to perform for them, to be bred. It's an odd sensation and string of emotions as he wrapped his mind around this not being the same. Eventually, he starts to move and get pulled along by the younger man

"We can remedy that now. You'll have fun around me."
Aleksi grinned boyishly while squeezing the older man's hand, admiring how handsome he was for a more mature man. How old was he? Mid-forties? Maybe. Age didn't matter though because he'd asked Aleksi to meet up with him so that meant something.
"Do you have a favourite booze even though you don't drink much?"
The Finn pulled Dominic into the trashy neon bar, noticing the bouncers moving the barriers out of the way so they could enter.

Dominic was just going along and unsure what was happening. It was good that he wasn't searched at the door though. Like Damien he did walk around with weapons.
"I don't have a favorite." Dominic paused while trying to take in the noise and lights of the bar. "Where I grew up alcohol was ... forbidden."
"I don't have a favorite." Dominic paused while trying to take in the noise and lights of the bar. "Where I grew up alcohol was ... forbidden."
At this bar the bouncers didn't really bother strip searching patrons because it wasn't as strict as other bars on the Strip. Aleksi liked it this way and knew it was more trashy and basic than many other places.
"Tonight's happy hour so we'll get more for our money."
Aleksi brought Dominic to the bar where there was a band playing up on the stage in the corner and some strip dancers were performing under the glow of the pink neon lights. It was a good atmosphere overall.
"How about I give you a Dirty Martini to start? Those taste really good."

"I have this." Dominic offered Aleksi the credit card that Damien had given him. Thus was what it was for he assumed. It also had his full name, Dominic Fox, on it .
He found the space overwhelming but would make do with the situation. "Maybe I should drink two?"
If Aleksi wanted him to even get tipsy he was going to need to drink alot

"I've got cash too if this place only takes bills."
Aleksi pulled out a wad of cash from his back pocket and then slid it back inside his jeans. He didn't really use credit cards as much because he was afraid of losing it while drunk.
"We can use the card or whatever. I'll put it all on a tab for us."
The Finn was already waving over the bartender and setting up a drinks slate for them to pay before they left.
"Two? Fuck yeah! Ok, I'll match you. Buy two and I'll drink two as well."

Dominic shrugged and put the card back in his pocket. He thought maybe it was polite to offer.
He waited while Aleksi ordered, wary and watching the people around them. It was a trait the Ministry instilled in everyone and he had ot just as much as Damien.
"I see the others drink whole bottles." Dominic himself had drank several bottles at Jake's party and felt very little.

"Thanks for the offer though."
Aleksi thought it sweet that Dominic wanted to use his credit card to pay. Maybe that was more the adult thing to do? Ah well, cash was ok and the Finn wanted to splash it tonight with his new friend.
"Oh yeah I've seen them do it too. Cocktails are always drunk in glasses though and it makes it a bit more fun than downing a bottle."
The boy ordered their drinks then passed the Dirty Martinis over, making a line of four.
"Two each then?"

Dominic had mostly been drinking with Viktor and some if the other heavy drinkers so when he was handed the martinis he downed both of them like shots.
He didn't know any better as he set the empty glasses on the counter.
"They're salty."

"They're salty."
Aleksi watched with fascination and amusement when Dominic downed both Martinis as if they were water. Well, that confirmed the Finn's suspicions that the American wasn't a lightweight at all.
"Yeah, they are. Ok, my turn."
The boy downed his own drinks at the same speed and swallowed both down. They were really good but now Aleksi wanted to move onto something else. Something a little more potent.
"Ok, what about some Giant Cocks? They're a cocktail with whiskey, gin, rum, tequila and lime added."

Dominic could only shake his head at the drink names.
"Do all bars name thier drinks this way?" He had no way of knowing.
"Do all bars name thier drinks this way?" He had no way of knowing.
"The dirty names? No, not all. These are just theme nights that this bar has when it's Happy Hour. We get our drinks at a discount price and a dirty name too!"
Aleksi loved anything lewd and dirty drinks were one of his favourites. Dominic's accent was American and the Finn was loving his time spent with the older man so far.
"Here we go. Try these."
Would he even flinch at the burn?

Dominic nodded that he sort of understood. Happy hour still didn't make sense to him. He just assumed it was what early evening was called here.
Dominic took the drink and this one he did make a face at. It took him a moment to place the flavor. "Does this have gin in it?"
He was learning that he didn't like gin.

Dominic would soon learn what Happy Hour was hanging around with Aleksi, whether he wanted to or not. The boy was on a mission to try and get the man drunk and make sure he had a fun time.
"Yeah, it does. Oh fuck. Do you hate gin?"
Aleksi drank everything so hadn't thought about Dominic hating a particular type of booze. At least now he knew!

"Mick gave it to me before." Dominic didn't like it then either.
"Maybe just rum or whiskey?" Dominic had those before and liked them.

"Mick? I don't think I've met him yet. What's he like?"
Aleksi had mostly been hanging with the young, rowdy drunks and hadn't even met half the tour yet. The Danes were a riot! Especially Mikkel and his fun boyfriend, Fredrik. Then, there were the Americans---Syn and Joey, they knew how to drink and have a good time too.
"Rum or whiskey? Ok, let me get you something."
The Finn would make sure Dominic got enough to drink tonight because it was party time!
