#john drew abracadabra

[gumnut-logic]

For @onereyofstarlight :D Cos it was her idea :D

-o-o-o-

Virgil was up later than usual this morning. Possibly because he went to bed later than usual. He really needed to not look at his blog before bed. The argument had been dangling like a carrot and he couldn’t help himself.

Next time he would leave the idiots for Brains and let the genius decimate them with math. He was a weapon to be wielded as needed, but Virgil liked to fight his own engineering wars and keep him for the big ones.

This one was big enough.

Consequently, he stumbled down the stairs to the kitchen at least an hour later than usual and in need of at least a gallon of coffee before he would be willing to engage with anything or anybody.

So it was both wonderful and annoying to find the kitchen full of brothers.

“You’re kidding.” Alan sounded shocked more than anything else.

John was hovering over the table and cocked an eyebrow at his youngest brother. “He flies the fastest plane on the planet, Alan.”

“Yeeeaah, but this is different.”

“How?”

Alan muttered something, but Virgil was far more interested in the coffee machine across the room.

“Afternoon, Virg!” Gordon, as usual was far too many decibels higher than the zero Virgil preferred.

Virgil wasn’t rude, however. A grunt sufficed.

If a glare was involved, it was truly in the effort of saving his younger brother’s life.

Gordon, of course, only grinned wider and shoved his sandwich in his mouth as he wandered past.

Virgil ignored him.

Extensively.

“But you’re a genius!” The exasperation in Alan’s voice drew Virgil’s attention back to the kitchen table. Scott had his head down and what appeared to be a stylus sticking out over his right ear.

“Labels, Alan. Everyone needs someone to check their work.”

“Ask Eos!”

“Why? Scott has always been my beta.”

Oh, so that’s what Scott was doing. Virgil went back to staring at the coffee machine and for the umpteenth time ran the designs through his head that could help develop a machine that could beam in coffee abracadabra so he didn’t have to wait.

“You’ve missed a variable.” Scott’s voice was thoughtful.

“A whole variable?!”

“You doubled it here, but you missed it in the final equation.”

A glance at the table again and Virgil raised an eyebrow. John looked fit to explode.

“Goddamnit, how the hell did I miss that?”

“Easy done.” Scott pulled the stylus out of his hair and started scribbling on the table.

Oh, so we are at table level already. Virgil tried to remember if Alan had ever seen Scott play with math. A slow blink and honestly, he couldn’t recall.

The coffee machine chimed and his attention was drawn back to the warmth awaiting him. He wrapped both hands around the mug and focussed on rebooting his brain.

It was wonderful.

“But how?!” Alan’s voice was incredulity itself.

As expected, Scott continued scribbling and ignored Alan completely.

Virgil had to smirk. Table level was really something to see.

Wall level…well, there was a reason why they used certain kinds of teflon paint throughout the villa and especially in Scott’s office. Not that his brother had had the chance to really play with math since Dad…

Ugh. Virgil needed more coffee.

At least that explained why Alan was so gobsmacked.

But still, it wasn’t as if John had stopped programming.

But then, Alan did tend to be clueless on some fronts.

Eh. Another cup of coffee coming up.

“I can’t believe it. Scott, that is perfect…wait, why that coefficient?” John sounded almost eager.

“You can’t have that result and expect that equation to solve to match that number without that coefficient. That is why you needed the variable.”

Virgil watched over his coffee cup as John frowned down at the table.

Alan appeared to be watching a tennis match between them.

“You’re right.” It was a sigh from John and his brother wilted.

Scott smiled up at him and went back to scribbling on the table.

“Now what are you doing?” Alan peered at the table.

“I like the pattern.”

John snorted.

“What pattern?” Alan sounded genuinely curious.

Virgil wandered over to the table and peered down at the numbers his brother was scribbling down.

Virgil was good with math. He used it like any other tool to get the results he needed. He was an engineer; he could speak numbers.

John wrote in numbers, he created in numbers and thoroughly enjoyed it, but again, math to John was as much a tool as it was to Virgil. A means to an end.

To Scott it was something else.

Sure, Scott had the math skills to be an excellent pilot, but his interest lay way beyond that relatively simple application.

Math to Scott was like music to Virgil.

The only reason Alan might not know this was that Scott spent so much of his time doing the necessary rather than the fun.

Watching him let himself play was wonderful.

Virgil stepped up beside Alan

His littlest brother looked up at him, shock still all over his face. “Why didn’t he tell me?”

Virgil shrugged and sipped at his coffee. “Nothing to tell.” Scott had always enjoyed maths.

Alan waved at the numbers on the table. “This is amazing.”

Scott was oblivious, of course. Virgil couldn’t help but smile. He hadn’t seen Scott go on a math bender in years. Looking up at John, he found a smile similar to his own. Perhaps this was planned, perhaps not. John’s exasperation had appeared real enough.

Scott was skirting the edge of Virgil’s knowledge and no doubt, left to himself, his big brother would leave Virgil in the dust.

John could follow, but then Scott’s mathematical creations were more for the enjoyment than any practical purpose, and John had a tendency to get distracted by individual concepts in Scott’s mosaic and run off with those.

Virgil just enjoyed watching Scott enjoy himself.

Hell, right now his classy big brother had his tongue peeking out one side of his mouth as, eyes wide, he scribbled down yet another equation that summarised the previous array of functions.

Truly it was like music.

Alan nudged Virgil, causing ripples in the remains of his coffee, and whispered. “Scott enjoys math?”

Another sip of his coffee. “Yeah, Scott enjoys math.”

And it was beautiful to watch him play.

Sorry, guys. This chapter is really long. Anyway, here is chapter twelve. Please show your love. As always, dedicated to @zeciex and @lovelykhaleesiii

Chapter Twelve Trip To The Past

Trying to get Michael to let her leave was like pulling a tooth. After she told him about what the witches were trying to learn about him, he fought with her about going and refused to tell her why he didn’t want her to go.

“Michael, it doesn’t matter. I want to know. I will tell you everything I learn.” Lilia told him as she zipped up the suitcase carrying the things she would need. “Why are you so scared?”

He sighed and looked at her. “Because that house is where my grandmother died. Because of me.”

Lilia looked at him and placed her hands on her hips. “You would think that I would have left you when you killed my father, but no. I’m still here.” She walked over to him and placed her hands on his cheeks. “I’m falling in love with you. Satan’s son and the humanity that I see in you.”

Michael smiled and sighed. “Please be careful. Some of the ghosts in that house are very dangerous.”

Lilia rolled her eyes and kissed his nose. “Ye of little faith. I should blow your eardrums out.”

He chuckled and shook his head, slipping a small piece of paper into the back pocket of her black skinny jeans. “Meet me here when you get back. I’ll tell them that I need open air now that I’m the Alpha.” He kissed her ear and walked out of her room, looking at her one more time before she left with Behold and Madison. “Please, don’t leave me when you get back.”

Lilia looked at him as she picked up her bags. “I love you, Michael Langdon. I’m not leaving you.”

Michael nodded and walked off to his room as she went down the stairs to the others, who of course were not ready yet..

She couldn’t help but feel weird about stepping into the dead’s territory. She had read up on the house before she discovered she was a witch and had walked by it a few times when her mom died. The house had drew her in and she associated that with the Banshee in her, but she was always scared to go in.

When they were all ready, they took the elevator up to the outside and where a limousine was waiting for them all.

“This is so unfair. Why don’t we have a car service?” Lilia looked at Behold and crossed her arms as they rode to Los Angeles.

“Because we aren’t rich like them, sweetie.” Behold told her as she leaned her head on his shoulder.

“What is up with all of you and her?” Madison asked. “I mean, come on.”

“We all adopted her when John Henry found her in jail three years ago after her mother died.” Behold said. “John Henry and her mother split up right before she was born because Ariel had asked him to become a teacher for the warlocks and her mother didn’t want to live with a group of men with no control of their powers.”

Lilia looked at Madison. “What about you? Why did Michael have to save you from Hell?”

“None of your business, bitch.” She growled at her.

“Aw, are we jealous that I get Michael?” Lilia smiled and leaned over to ruffle her hair. “Too bad, little girl. Keep it to yourself.”

Arriving in L.A meant that Behold and Madison had to go buy the house for the Coven and made Lilia wait in the car. During one of her trips to the outside world, she had bought Michael a phone and that’s who was talking to while the two pretending to be happy couple bought the house.

“I miss you, Michael. I miss my classroom. I miss my students.” She told him as she leaned back into the car seat.

“I know you do.” Michael chuckled. “Trust me. They miss you too. Baldwin has taken over your class.”

“Oh, god. Tell him I said not to adjust my chair. He can use his own.” Lilia laughed and bit her nail. “What am I walking into, Michael?”

“I don’t know, baby. I do know that most of them hate me. Especially my birth mother.” He sighed into the phone and she heard the creak of the chair in his room.

“Wait. Your birth mom?” She raised an eyebrow as she listened to him. “She’s dead and in that house?”

“Yeah. I have a birth mother. She died giving birth to me.” Lilia could hear the tears forming in his voice as Madison and Behold walked back towards the car.

“Hon, I got to go. I love you. Bye.” She didn’t even wait for him to say it back before she hung up. “So, we good?”

“Murder House is ours.” Behold shuddered as they drove to the house.

Driving up to the house, Lilia’s stomach clenched. This was not how she thought she would be meeting his mother. Especially if she hated Michael. She wondered what had happened in this house. When they arrived and stopped in front of the house, she tilted her head and smiled.

“This place is beautiful. I can see why it has so many deaths.” Lilia looked to the others and saw them looking at her like she was crazy. “What? I like old things.”

“Please. This place is a shithole.” Madison said as she got her bags.

Getting their luggage and walking up to the house, Lilia could feel her power weakening from how many dead were there. They reached the steps and she was already out of breathe, leaning on Behold as he tried to unlock the house magically.

“Oh, you’re that kind of house.” Behold said and Lilia laughed.

“Just use the key.” Madison whined as they waited for the door to be opened.

“Debbie Downer.” Lilia scoffed as they all walked in.

They weren’t expecting what they saw when they walked in. The house looked lived in. It was very different then the realtor said.

“I thought this place was abandoned.” Lilia asked them, placing her bags on the floor.

“That’s what the realtor said.” Behold looked around and tried to use his powers. “Huh. They’re off. That’s never happened.”

Lilia felt woozy and collapsed onto the couch, looking at them. “Mine are being drained. Stupid Banshee blood. This house is using my powers to fuel itself.”

“Where are all the ghosts?” Madison asked her. “I thought this place was jam packed with the dead.”

Lilia tilted her head at the stupidity of the question. “Ghosts can choose who they want to see them. They are just hiding right now.” She looked all around them. “Good thing Behold knows a spell to make them appear to us.”

Behold picked up his smaller case and walked upstairs with Madison in tow. “We’ll be back, Lilia. Stay strong.”

She nodded as they disappeared downstairs. Lilia closed her eyes and tried to reign her powers before she slept throughout this visit. She needed to know her own information so that way she wouldn’t be left in the dark while Michael and the idiot witches fought. She needed to be as strong as Michael. No, she needed to be as strong as Lilith.

Lilia felt the wave of power from upstairs roll through the entire house and she opened her eyes. Before her was an older woman dusting the fireplace and muttering about some woman named Constance.

“Hello?” Lilia stood up and felt stronger than before. Her speaking had caused the old woman to jump. “I’m Lilia Snow-Moore. You are?”

She could hear Behold and Madison walking into another part of the house, but she kept her eyes trained on the maid.

“M-My name is Moira.” She stuttered as she went back to dusting. “I’m sorry. I have to do this. I can’t handle another rant from Constance.”

“Who is Constance? Is she related to Michael Langdon?” Lilia walked over to the woman and looked at her. “Please, tell me.”

“She was his grandmother. She treated him oddly.” Moira looked at her, stopping her dusting. “She would praise him and hide away the evidence of his wrong-doings. Especially when he killed people.”

Lilia raised her eyebrows. “He was homicidal even then? Figures.”

Moira smiled at her and sat on the couch. “He aged overnight when he was about five. The very next day, she brought a priest here to get whatever evil was in him out. He killed the priest because the latin was hurting his ears. He may have looked about eighteen, but he was still just a five year old boy.”

As Moira told her the story, Lilia’s heart broke for her lover. She had no idea his pain was this bad. No wonder he didn’t want her here.

“She kicked him out after the priest thing and then killed herself. After that, I stopped paying attention to him. I was too busy doing stupid tasks for her.” With that, Moira walked out and went to Constance.

Lilia went to follow her when the old blonde woman walked into the living room to inspect the work of the maid.

“You’re Constance Langdon?” She asked her.

Constance looked at her with a smile and nodded. “Why, yes, I am. Who are you?”

Lilia’s blood boiled as she saw the resemblance in this woman to Michael. “I’m Lilia Snow-Moore. I came with Madison and Behold.”

“Ah. Another user of witchcraft.” Constance tsked as she turned to the fireplace, running her finger along the mantle.

Lilia rolled her eyes as she insulted the maid for what seemed like the millionth time and flinched when Constance threw the glass.

“Are you two ladies okay in here?” Behold called out and walked into the room.

“The old crone is having a temper tantrum over what Moira said to her.” Lilia scoffed and leaned against the wall.

“What do you want for the information about Michael Langdon?” Madison asked her, walking to the middle of the room. “Because we aren’t leaving until we get our answers.”

“Well, if you really do have witchcraft at your disposal, then why don’t you just abracadabra that goddamn bitch out of my afterlife, huh? Bless me with some peace and quiet.” Constance asked of them.

Lilia scoffed and muttered, “Like you deserve it, bitch.” She followed the other two to the backyard and looked at what used to be the gazebo. “The Harmons built a beautiful gazebo here when they lived here. It was torn down by the city after they died. I think Moira is here.”

“Then, you two can start digging.” Madison told them as she cocked her hips to the side and looked at them.

Lilia sighed and grabbed two shovels. They dug for what seemed like hours. She was tired and sweaty. She could feel her phone buzzing from texts from Michael. He was the only thing that kept her going. She knew that she needed the information that they had.

They had finally reached a lot of bodies when they finally stopped. Lilia had never seen a grave like this.

“Holy shit. How will we tell which one is hers?” She asked Madison, who reached out a hand for on of the skulls.

“Well, this one isn’t hers. The aura is way too wrong. Moira’s would be far too morose.” She then tossed the skull behind her.

“Have some respect. That was a person.” Lilia scolded as Behold handed Madison another skull.

“Why are we digging? I know a good spell that could easily bound Moira to the closet.” Behold told Lilia.

“No. This is the only way to get Constance to open up.” Madison said as she nodded. “This one is her. Get the rest of her.”

They gathered the bones of Moira O’Hara and brought them in through the backdoor. She was sitting on one of the barstools surrounding the kitchen island. She turned around and smiled sadly.

“Have you come to banish me?” She said so sadly.

Lilia walked up to her and placed a gentle hand on her shoulder. “No. We have something that belong to you.”

Behold handed her the bag and watched as she broke down with tears in her eyes. “You have a choice, Moira. Where do you want to be buried?”

“There’s only one place I’ve ever wanted to be.” Moira told them with tears rolling down her face. “With my mother.”

“Go. I’ll stay here.” Lilia said to them as they left to bury the maid with her mother.

When they finally got back to the house, Lilia, Behold, and Madison were in front of Constance, looking at her as if she had lost her mind.

“We are kind of in a hurry.” Madison said to get her to talk.

“Well, where to start?” Constance told them what she knew about the boy.

Listening to the old woman’s side of things made her want to burn her soul and send her to Hell where she belongs. She could feel her blood boiling as Constance recounted the life of the beautiful man she had come to love with all of her being. Tears slowly rolled down her cheeks as the woman finished and walked away from them.

“Oh, my God.” Madison said as they walked up the stairs to find someone else to talk to. “What have we done?”

“You’ve let a man more powerful than Cordelia take over. Who cares if he is the Antichrist? You don’t know him.” Lilia defended him.

“He could destroy the world.” Behold said.”

“Are we even talking about the same man?” Lilia asked him, turning to him. “His grandmother tried to have a priest exorcise him and then kicked him out. He was still a baby. Just in a grown man’s body.”

“Lilia, you are too blinded by love to see what we see.” Madison told her, pushing past her to the room where Ben Harmon was masturbating and crying.

“Maybe Madison is right. We can handle it from here, Lilia. Go back to the school.” Behold patted her on the arm and walked past her.

More tears fell down her eyes as she thought of what might be being said about her lover in that room. She couldn’t take it anymore. Lilia walked away from them and from the school. They weren’t with Michael. Not really. They were just using him for his power.

She went back downstairs and picked up her bags. Pulling out the address of the house he was staying at, she concentrated on the address and transmuted to Michael Langdon, the Antichrist.

Delta Haus Brings Bar Pizzas and Frat House Movie Nostalgia to Downtown Boston

There will be toga parties

A movie-inspired bar and restaurant arrived in Downtown Boston last week, and it’s full of nostalgia for several cult classics. Delta Haus calls to mind movies like Animal House, Old School, and Revenge of the Nerds, and as might be expected, the folks behind it also operate Boston’s Caddyshack-themed bar, Bushwood Cocktail Club (as well as sibling spot Finn McCool’s).

Delta Haus (200 High St.) has plenty to offer in the way of food and entertainment. After the success of Bushwood, the team wanted to create something similar in the space beneath Finn’s, according to assistant general manager Keith Gleason. (Bushwood is in an adjacent space.)

“Why don’t we try to duplicate not the same idea, but something along those lines?” he said. The team considered other movies they loved to watch and “rolled it all together.”

“You want to have things to occupy people,” Gleason said, noting that Delta Haus complements Bushwood’s arcade games with its own unique selection of bar games, including pool, shuffleboard, pinball, darts, and air hockey, among others. Pulling from multiple movies gave the team flexibility with both decorations and the menu, which Gleason developed with some help and inspiration from the management team.

“I drew stuff from multiple movies and was able to hopefully get a couple chuckles from people,” Gleason said.

Look out for menu items like the “Bleu-Tarsky burger” (named for John Belushi’s Animal House character), and cocktails like the “Mrs. Dean Wormer” and “Fawn Liebowitz.” Just as Jack Daniels played a role in Animal House, the liquor is featured in two different cocktails.

Other items on the food menu include several varieties of a South Shore classic, bar pizza, plus a fried chicken sandwich, and appetizers like “pledge pretzels” and “delta nachos.”

Aiming to appeal to anyone who was ever in a fraternity, attended a fraternity party, or watched movies about them, Delta Haus serves some classic college beers, like PBR, Coors, and Rolling Rock, and it’s all “frat-style,” according to Gleason (no glassware, but plastic cups nicer than Solo cups). The bar also stocks several (less fratty) local craft beers, including Sam Adams seasonal, Harpoon IPA, Allagash, Jack’s Abby House Lager, and UFO Abracadabra.

For decorations, Delta Haus fully embraces the movie theme — there’s a mirror sporting different quotes, as well as several other design features, including some created by an employee who’s an artist.

“On the back wall by the dart area we’ve got a collage — it almost looks like a page out of a yearbook — that has all the different characters from all the different movies we drew from,” Gleason said.

There are couches on one side of the bar, and there are tables made from barrels with tops on them featuring the bar’s logo and caricatures. There are also seven televisions scattered through the space.

“It’s definitely a unique space,” Gleason said. “Every person who came down here [during the first few days in business], you saw them pointing, laughing, just having a good time.”

Delta House made its official debut on Thursday, January 18. “If the first week was any indication, it’s gonna take off just like Bushwood’s did,” Gleason said.

The bar plans to host events (think toga parties and Greek Olympics) as well, so stay tuned to social media for details.

Located in the Financial District, Delta Haus is initially operating Wednesday through Saturday from 4 p.m. to 2 a.m. and may extend those hours depending on demand.

Play

This is just a scene that @onereyofstarlight​ sparked. Actually totally her idea, I just gave it words. She thought Scott might have a hobby, so we gave him one :D So yeah, all for the wonderful @onereyofstarlight​ cos she is wonderful :D

Doesn’t really go anywhere, loosely related to V.T. Green. Mostly fluff.

I hope you enjoy it :D

-o-o-o-

Virgil was up later than usual this morning. Possibly because he went to bed later than usual. He really needed to not look at his blog before bed. The argument had been dangling like a carrot and he couldn’t help himself.

Next time he would leave the idiots for Brains and let the genius decimate them with math. He was a weapon to be wielded as needed, but Virgil liked to fight his own engineering wars and keep him for the big ones.

This one was big enough.

Consequently, he stumbled down the stairs to the kitchen at least an hour later than usual and in need of at least a gallon of coffee before he would be willing to engage with anything or anybody.

So it was both wonderful and annoying to find the kitchen full of brothers.

An internal sigh, just waiting for the comments.

“You’re kidding.” Alan sounded shocked more than anything else.

John was hovering over the table and cocked an eyebrow at his youngest brother. “He flies the fastest plane on the planet, Alan.”

“Yeeeaah, but this is different.”

“How?”

Alan muttered something, but Virgil was far more interested in the coffee machine across the room.

“Afternoon, Virg!” Gordon, as usual was far too many decibels higher than the zero Virgil preferred.

Virgil wasn’t rude, however. A grunt sufficed.

If a glare was involved, it was truly in the effort of saving his younger brother’s life.

Gordon, of course, only grinned wider and shoved his sandwich in his mouth as he wandered past.

Virgil ignored him.

Extensively.

“But you’re a genius!” The exasperation in Alan’s voice drew Virgil’s attention back to the kitchen table. Scott had his head down and what appeared to be a stylus sticking out over his right ear.

“Labels, Alan. Everyone needs someone to check their work.”

“Ask Eos!”

“Why? Scott has always been my beta.”

Oh, so that’s what Scott was doing. Virgil went back to staring at the coffee machine and for the umpteenth time ran the designs through his head that could help develop a machine that could beam in coffee abracadabra so he didn’t have to wait.

“You’ve missed a variable.” Scott’s voice was thoughtful.

“A whole variable?!”

“You doubled it here, but you missed it in the final equation.”

A glance at the table again and Virgil raised an eyebrow. John looked fit to explode.

“Goddamnit, how the hell did I miss that?”

“Easy done.” Scott pulled the stylus out of his hair and started scribbling on the table.

Oh, so we are at table level already. Virgil tried to remember if Alan had ever seen Scott play with math. A slow blink and honestly, he couldn’t recall.

The coffee machine chimed and his attention was drawn back to the warmth awaiting him. He wrapped both hands around the mug and focussed on rebooting his brain.

It was wonderful.

“But how?!” Alan’s voice was incredulity itself.

As expected, Scott continued scribbling and ignored Alan completely.

Virgil had to smirk. Table level was really something to see.

Wall level…well, there was a reason why they used certain kinds of teflon paint throughout the villa and especially in Scott’s office. Not that his brother had had the chance to really play with math since Dad…

Ugh. Virgil needed more coffee.

At least that explained why Alan was so gobsmacked.

But still, it wasn’t as if John had stopped programming.

But then, Alan did tend to be clueless on some fronts.

Eh. Another cup of coffee coming up.

“I can’t believe it. Scott, that is perfect…wait, why that coefficient?” John sounded almost eager.

“You can’t have that result and expect that equation to solve to match that number without that coefficient. That is why you needed the variable.”

Virgil watched over his coffee cup as John frowned down at the table.

Alan appeared to be watching a tennis match between them.

“You’re right.” It was a sigh from John and his brother wilted.

Scott smiled up at him and went back to scribbling on the table.

“Now what are you doing?” Alan peered at the table.

“I like the pattern.”

John snorted.

“What pattern?” Alan sounded genuinely curious.

Virgil wandered over to the table and peered down at the numbers his brother was scribbling down.

Virgil was good with math. He used it like any other tool to get the results he needed. He was an engineer; he could speak numbers.

John wrote in numbers, he created in numbers and thoroughly enjoyed it, but again, math to John was as much a tool as it was to Virgil. A means to an end.

To Scott it was something else.

Sure, Scott had the math skills to be an excellent pilot, but his interest lay way beyond that relatively simple application.

Math to Scott was like music to Virgil.

The only reason Alan might not know this was that Scott spent so much of his time doing the necessary rather than the fun.

Watching him let himself play was wonderful.

Virgil stepped up beside Alan

His littlest brother looked up at him, shock still all over his face. “Why didn’t he tell me?”

Virgil shrugged and sipped at his coffee. “Nothing to tell.” Scott had always enjoyed maths.

Alan waved at the numbers on the table. “This is amazing.”

Scott was oblivious, of course. Virgil couldn’t help but smile. He hadn’t seen Scott go on a math bender in years. Looking up at John, he found a smile similar to his own. Perhaps this was planned, perhaps not. John’s exasperation had appeared real enough.

Their big brother slipped into what looked like multi-dimensional trigonometry. He was skirting the edge of Virgil’s knowledge and no doubt, left to himself, Scott would leave Virgil in the dust.

John could follow, but then Scott’s mathematical creations were more for the enjoyment than any practical purpose, and John had a tendency to get distracted by individual concepts in Scott’s mosaic and run off with those.

Virgil just enjoyed watching Scott enjoy himself.

Hell, right now his classy big brother had his tongue peeking out one side of his mouth as, eyes wide, he scribbled down yet another equation that summarised the previous array of functions.

Truly it was like music.

Alan nudged Virgil, causing ripples in the remains of his coffee, and whispered. “Scott enjoys math?”

Another sip of his coffee. “Yeah, Scott enjoys math.”

And it was beautiful to watch him play.

“On the back wall by the dart area we’ve got a collage — it almost looks like a page out of a yearbook — that has all the different characters from all the different movies we drew from,” Gleason said.

There are couches on one side of the bar, and there are tables made from barrels with tops on them featuring the bar’s logo and caricatures. There are also seven televisions scattered through the space.

“It’s definitely a unique space,” Gleason said. “Every person who came down here [during the first few days in business], you saw them pointing, laughing, just having a good time.”

Delta House made its official debut on Thursday, January 18. “If the first week was any indication, it’s gonna take off just like Bushwood’s did,” Gleason said.

The bar plans to host events (think toga parties and Greek Olympics) as well, so stay tuned to social media for details.

Located in the Financial District, Delta Haus is initially operating Wednesday through Saturday from 4 p.m. to 2 a.m. and may extend those hours depending on demand.

Delta Haus Brings Bar Pizzas and Frat House Movie Nostalgia to Downtown Boston

There will be toga parties

A movie-inspired bar and restaurant arrived in Downtown Boston last week, and it’s full of nostalgia for several cult classics. Delta Haus calls to mind movies like Animal House, Old School, and Revenge of the Nerds, and as might be expected, the folks behind it also operate Boston’s Caddyshack-themed bar, Bushwood Cocktail Club (as well as sibling spot Finn McCool’s).

Delta Haus (200 High St.) has plenty to offer in the way of food and entertainment. After the success of Bushwood, the team wanted to create something similar in the space beneath Finn’s, according to assistant general manager Keith Gleason. (Bushwood is in an adjacent space.)

“Why don’t we try to duplicate not the same idea, but something along those lines?” he said. The team considered other movies they loved to watch and “rolled it all together.”

“You want to have things to occupy people,” Gleason said, noting that Delta Haus complements Bushwood’s arcade games with its own unique selection of bar games, including pool, shuffleboard, pinball, darts, and air hockey, among others. Pulling from multiple movies gave the team flexibility with both decorations and the menu, which Gleason developed with some help and inspiration from the management team.

“I drew stuff from multiple movies and was able to hopefully get a couple chuckles from people,” Gleason said.

Look out for menu items like the “Bleu-Tarsky burger” (named for John Belushi’s Animal House character), and cocktails like the “Mrs. Dean Wormer” and “Fawn Liebowitz.” Just as Jack Daniels played a role in Animal House, the liquor is featured in two different cocktails.

Other items on the food menu include several varieties of a South Shore classic, bar pizza, plus a fried chicken sandwich, and appetizers like “pledge pretzels” and “delta nachos.”

Aiming to appeal to anyone who was ever in a fraternity, attended a fraternity party, or watched movies about them, Delta Haus serves some classic college beers, like PBR, Coors, and Rolling Rock, and it’s all “frat-style,” according to Gleason (no glassware, but plastic cups nicer than Solo cups). The bar also stocks several (less fratty) local craft beers, including Sam Adams seasonal, Harpoon IPA, Allagash, Jack’s Abby House Lager, and UFO Abracadabra.
