( Vikram Ft. Quinn ) - Blog Posts
"eh, you're not missing about much. beer's just... you know, cheap." it fit his nature of taking things slow. shots were too quick, too reckless, and much harder to nurse on those nights when he simply didn't want to be alone. but quinn's offer was kind and as a man who could use a little more of it himself, it was only natural for him to agree. he taps her shot glass with his, then downs the shot. the burn is strangely soothing. it gives him something to focus on. "oh! yes, that's me." any reminder that vikram is not invisible to others makes him nervous. "yeah, i think I've seen you around too. i usually work with the mortuary so i don't really um, get to meet other people. what do you do there?" she seems a little young to be a doctor.
the brunette let out a laugh, “ unfortunately , i'm gluten free … so beer and me don't usually get along . ” she responded , sending the taller male a friendly grin . quinn had recognized vikram from the hospital , but it was usually during a moment where she was quite busy and stressed . quinn wasn't super outgoing , but she wasn't super introverted - she was somewhere in the middle . if she didn't know someone , she didn't always say hi , but when alcohol was involved … her extroverted side had an edge . “ yeah ! i'm quinn . ” she responded , holding up the shot glass and cheersing . “ vikram , right ? i've seen you a few times at the hospital , i believe . ”
"overall, i think i might be more of a beer guy." vikram admits with a small smile, taking one of the glasses into his hand. "not the type to say no to a free drink, though." especially when its paired with such an amicable smile. "thank you, that's very nice of you. quinn, right?" he's seen her around the hospital during his visits to the mortuary. "do you, uh, want to do a cheer?"
the crowd at the bar was becoming a problem as quinn was hoping the person beside her was actually able to hear her words clearly . quinn's eyes shifted up towards the much taller male in front of her . " it's tequila . " she states , offering a friendly smile . " i know not everyone is a tequila drinker , so i'm hoping you're more of a tequila guy instead of vodka . " she responds .
body or not, it had been vikram's plan to finish the night at redstone all along. it suited him better, always preferred the grittiness of a live band over polished beats blaring through speakers. the place was crowded though, much more than usual. how annoying. vikram is ready to call it a night... but then the offer of free liquor is made, which naturally brings his plan to a halt. he turns to quinn, gaze alternating between the glass and the woman presenting it. "what is it?" he finally asks.

the hospital had been draining all of quinn's energy . between stomach flus , anxiety over the murders , & car crashes - it had been a whirlwind of patients coming and going . for the first time in weeks , quinn got a night off and figured now was her chance to let loose . her eyes widened once she realized the bar tender had given her an extra shot of tequila . there was no way the dirty blonde was gonna take two , so she took the friendly avenue and turned to the person beside her . “ hi , wanna take this shot with me ? it's free . ” she smiled , hoping the tequila would find a rightful owner .
