The Perk, Sunday evening

[preacher-custer.livejournal.com]

Jesse came in to get his black coffee and a slice of banana bread. He'd never written a syllabus before and now he realized that he wasn't sure just what in hell he was doing.

Grabbing a table, he pulled out the same much-scribbled in notebook and started looking at the list of religions he'd decided to cover in his class.

Clink clink. "Hola, Reverend Custer."

"Evenin'." Jesse put his pen down and raised an eyebrow. "I don't think I caught your name last time."

Ooh, that one definitely caught Maureen's eye when she took a break from her notes.

"Hello," she said with a wink.

[dramaqmaureen.livejournal.com]

Maureen breezed into the Perk. She'd been up late the night before working on plans to save Empire Records, completely forgetting that she hadn't actually opened the store all weekend.

She ordered a large hazelnut coffee and sat down to scribble more ideas in her notebook.

Jesse looked up and quirked an eyebrow at the pretty woman. "Evenin'."

Hoping the Perk wasn't as busy as it was yesterday, Janice came in to work on her own lesson plans and furtively slipped into line to order that damn fancy triple-shot mocha and a cheese danish.

She shot a sidelong, mildly distrusting glance at the man in the clerical collar as she settled down at a table, drink and pastry in hand, and got to work.

Jesse caught the glance and gave her a shit-eating grin.

Maureen looked up and smiled at the woman. Everyone seemed to be working hard tonight.

Mary breezed into the Perk looking for a decent cup of tea.

She looked around at the establishment and sniffed.

It'll do.

One cup of Earl Grey, and a rasberry scone paid for later and she found a seat where she could scribble in her notebook.

[preacher-custer.livejournal.com]

Everybody and their brother had notebooks to scribble in tonight. Jesse gave the woman a friendly smile. "Evenin'."

[drjcovington.livejournal.com]

Janice raised an eyebrow at the newcomer.

This one looked incredibly prissy.

[dramaqmaureen.livejournal.com]

Maureen looked at the woman and quickly dismissed her as not her type.

Which didn't happen very often. Almost everyone was Maureen's type.

"Buenos noches, Senorita," El said to the woman who blew in.

Knowing she was going to be up late working on some research, Ellie stopped by the Perk for some caffeinated goodness.

[preacher-custer.livejournal.com]

Jesse recognized this one. "Howdy, neighbor."

[dramaqmaureen.livejournal.com]

Maureen smiled. It had been a while since she'd been interested in a cute blonde.

"Hey, there."

After a quiet dinner at home, spent discussing the day's events, there'd been some discussion over whether to head to the Perk or to Caritas for the evening. Aziraphale had voted for a couple of pints at the bar, Wilson had suggested dessert and coffee, and a quiet place to do some last-minute work on their classes.

The reminder that he'd be teaching his very first class ever at 8:00 the next morning won the angel over to Wilson's side.

A short while later, they were settled in at a table near the window, with dessert for both, coffee for the young doctor, and a cup of tea for the angel. Both were looking through their class notes -- Wilson's on his laptop, Aziraphale's written in neat cursive in a composition book.

"What do you think about white chocolate chip blondies? Or do you think the students would prefer more chocolate instead?" Wilson asked, scanning a recipe he had pulled up on the screen.

"James love...how exactly is looking at brownie recipes considered preparing for your class?"

[dr-jwilsonmd.livejournal.com]

Scrolling thoughtfully through a list of brownie recipes, Wilson took a sip of his coffee, enjoying the fresh brew before eyeing the slice of espresso chocolate cheesecake he had talked Phale into purchasing.

"My class is going to be at 2 in the afternoon, love. Just the point where lunch is starting to wear off. A little sugar hit might be appreciated by the kids. So... I'm going to make brownies." He explained as if food was the answer to everything...which of course, it was, right?

"What do you think of this one, Chocolate hazelnut brownies with milk chocolate frosting?"

Joel's decided he doesn't get out enough, and hey, it seems like a party here when he passes by. So he comes in with a "Hi, everybody!"


Then he stands at the counter, looking at the menu and wondering how his soul patch is coming in.

[dramaqmaureen.livejournal.com]

Maureen looked up and gave him a flirty wink.

[preacher-custer.livejournal.com]

What the hell was on that guy's face? A little caterpillar? Maybe he'd been kissin' on his cat before he left the house.

Still. Small towns. "Evenin'."

[spit-spot.livejournal.com]

Mary nodded to the friendly scruffy fellow.

Yomiko needed to be more social, she knew, so she took her latest book (a copy of War and Peace in the original Russian) to the Perk, where she bought a cappuccino and muffin and found a nice table to read at. She was kind of shy, but if someone wanted to approach her, that would be nice.

[joel_sol]

"Book!" Joel says, slapping his forehead with the heel of his hand. "I knew I forgot something appropriately coffee shoppish."

[preacher-custer.livejournal.com]

As he had with everyone who'd come in, Jesse nodded to the new girl from where he was sitting. "Evenin'."
