Don't worry about the zebras
Behind the bar and dispensing drinks in little more than a loose tank top, Olaf feels like he's found his calling in life.
(Never mind that this isn't actually him working so much as he'd ducked behind the bar to steal his own drink, accidentally served someone else a drink, and that had been two hours ago)
Olaf's pretty sure that he could do bartending on a regular basis. After all, he knows his liquor, he's had endless amounts of experience listening to people's problems, and being an oracle means that he not only usually has a solution, but most of the time, it's pretty sure the right one! True, 'most of the time' for Olaf depends on the sun in the sky and a lot of other factors, but he's pretty sure that he's having a good day today.
He serves up a screwdriver, a sex on the beach, listens to a hotel guest mourn her ill luck with men, and drinks a beer all before he notices that there's someone new having approached the bar. True, he's not actually the bartender or anything, but given that Olaf pretty much fills his days with a hazy miasma of slacking off and generally not giving a damn, he thinks that playing at bartending for the day can't hurt.
Of course, if this gets him banned from the bar, that could have some severe ramifications down the line.
"What can I get you?" he asks cheerfully and hopes the answer isn't 'your arse out of here, now'.

"Free? How are you going to make any money if the drinks are free? I mean, I might comp a friend every once in a while but I'm a businesswoman," she says, grinning at him. Thea is actually proud of her business acumen and her ability to make something out of nothing. She took Verdant very, very seriously, maybe even more seriously than Ollie had.
"I'm in it to make money at the end of the day."
