Octavia follows Vinyl into the house once they get there.

"Ah, home sweet home", she sighs happily

"Yeah, after a long night out it is kinda nice to be here. But hey, I don't have a gig tomorrow so I can catch up on sleep then", Vinyl calls over her shoulder as she walks into the kitchen. "But right now I'm starving."

Octavia nods in agreement as she grabs herself a glass of water and a peanut butter and dandelion sandwich.

Vinyl retrieves some potato chips from the pantry and a bottle of cheap vodka from the fridge, and pours her self some.

Octavia finishes her glass of water and sandwich before holding out her glass. "Think you could pour me some of that Vinyl dear?" She wasn't a huge fan of alcohol, but having a drink after one of Vinyl's shows always made her feel good.

"Well sure, but I'd think you would prefer some of your fancy highbrow stuff instead", said Vinyl as she reached for the bottle with her magic.

Octavia shakes her head. "No, that stuff isn't as strong. All the fancy ponies can't handle their booze." She giggles.

Vinyl pours her some alcohol, as well as refilling her own glass. "Well all of them but one, that is."

Octavia smiles and drinks her glass of alcohol letting out a little sigh as she finishes, feeling it's warmth spread throughout her body.

"So Octy, hows work been lately?"

"Oh you know. I've been playing at local theaters and auditoriums. Boring stuff."

"Come on, something interesting has to have happened."

"Well there was this incident at a recital where Bronze String snapped her violin into two pieces, while playing. That was pretty funny." Octavia giggles again.

"I wish I could have seen that", Vinyl says, beginning to slur her words. "Ya know, I saw a pretty sexy stallion today at the gig", Vinyl joked, smiling.

Octavia smiled and looked at her. "Really? Did he interest you?"

"Octy you know I'm only interested in gray earth pony cellists", Vinyl says as she leans over and kisses Octavia.

Octavia kisses back, tasting the vodka in Vinyl's mouth. As she breaks the kiss she replies, "And I only for white unicorn DJs", smiling, her face a little rosy from both the alcohol and the kiss.

Vinyl gently embraces Octavia and begins to caress the treble cleffs on her flanks. "Maybe we should, uh, leave the kitchen and go somewhere else. Like our bedroom?
