Caritas, Thursday, August 31st

Phoebe showed up early for her first night of work and greeted Tino warmly. He gave her a tour of the bar and the storage rooms were extra things were kept and then gave her a brief lesson on how to best reattach zombie parts for the band when they fell off.

After all of this, she wiped down the bar and then bounced around excitedly behind it as she waited for customers to arrive.

They'd heard through the grapevine that Phoebe was tending bar at Caritas, and decided to head over and give their support to their 'sib'. And Aziraphale hadn't seen her in ages.

Settling in on a pair of stools, the two men leaned against the bar, and Aziraphale said, "Beg your pardon, my dear, but might we have two glasses of scotch, please?"

Phoebe turned and then squealed happily. She came around the bar and launched herself at Aziraphale to hug him tightly.

Wilson leaned slightly to the side while Aziraphale got tackled.

For some reason, this amused him greatly and he had to smirk.

Aziraphale was getting used to the sudden and random hugging from people -- although after a year without his own body, it was something of an unusual sensation -- but this tackling thing was rather unexpected. Still, he laughed and returned Phoebe's embrace.

"It's so good to see you, too, my dear. Should I assume that no one told you I was in town?"

"Cole did just a few minutes ago!" She said with a grin and then hugged hin again. Then she stepped back and hugged James, too.

"I cannot believe how great it is to see you both."

Wilson and Aziraphale both beamed at Phoebe.

"We feel exactly the same, my dear," the angel replied. He patted the stool and said, "Sit with us a few minutes, if they'll allow it, and tell us how you've been."

[ooc: Wilson modded with permission.]

Phoebe sat down on the stool after looking around to make sure that no one was in need of a drink refill or an order.

"I don't even know where to start... but the last few weeks ahve been a bit tough."

Aziraphale had heard as much, so as Wilson moved to take a seat on Phoebe's other side, he reached for the young woman's hand and gave it a squeeze.

"I'm so sorry to hear that, Phoebe. Do you know...what you need to do is come by our apartment, have a good cup of tea, spend some time with your older brothers."

Hopefully, having a safe place to relax would help her regain her bearings, and give her a little more strength to face her troubles.

Phoebe nodded. "I think that would be an excellent idea."

"Then you must come and visit with us as soon as you can. We're staying at Mauvaise Chance, and you know you're welcome any time at all, my dear."

In fact, he needed to get the wards put up, but as soon as he did they'd be keyed to Phoebe and Bel.

"Now...what's troubling you at the moment that we might help with?"

"Paige, Piper, Veronica and Chloe have all left."

Aziraphale knew Phoebe's sisters were gone, but he didn't about the two friends.

"I'm so sorry, my dear." He put his arm over Phoebe's shoulders. "Did they leave you with a way to get in touch with them? A telephone, or...email?"

Phoebe nodded. "Yes, they did. It's just taking some getting used to. Chloe was the first friend I made here, so saying goodbye was tough. Veronica had become close enough to be family. The hardest was definitely saying goodbye to Piper, though. This will be the first time she and I have been apart our entire lives."
