Luke's Diner; Sunday [ 12/02 ]

[by137.livejournal.com]

A.J. wasn't exactly in the best of moods after yet another fallout with Annette, so most of his concentration went into his project for the specials board today. Which included filling it entirely with different colored squares of all the same size, spanning from one end to the other.

Luke's is open.

Talk to A.J. -- 12/02

[by137.livejournal.com]

Because he's there.

River had gone for a long Sunday walk, and stopping by to Luke's Diner meant the need for food could be combined with a chat with A.J. She quickly noted that perhaps he wasn't in the mood for talking, but at least she could try to cheer him up.

"Has the crap taken to flying yet?" she asked.

It took A.J. a moment to realize what it was that River was talking about, but, when he did, he gave her a small, albeit weak, smile. "Nah, not quite yet. Was hooking wires up to it yesterday, though, so it's almost there."

She got an image of it from his mind and nodded. "Good. What food do you recommend today?" She returned the smile, although hers was a happier one.

"I dunno," A.J. admitted. "Milkshake's always good. What kind of food do you think you're in the mood for?"

Re: Talk to A.J. -- 12/02

"Vanilla milkshake," she said after a moment's thought. "And fries. Talking about what's on your mind is an option if you want to." And of course not talking was equally an option, but that should be obvious.

A.J. snorted a little with a grin. "Vanilla milkshake and fries, no problem," he said. "That other part I'm not so sure about. Been a rough week, but, on the bright side, it's also been productive. I've gotten so much work done..."

"Better subject. I rearranged furniture." She grinned at A.J. "I like the squares."

Re: Talk to A.J. -- 12/02

[by137.livejournal.com]

"I like 'em, too," A.J. nodded. "They're just so nice and..." He tried to find a good word.

"Square. Y'know? And rearranging is always good. How'd you change the room?"

Beauty hadn't been doing much of anything for the past week bad mun!, and she realized when Sunday rolled around that she hadn't seen A.J. in way too long. Especially considering what she'd heard hinted at on the radio last night.

So she hurried down to the diner, slowing her steps when she came through the door, and coming quietly up to the counter. "A.J.?" she said softly, not sure if he was immersed in the art thing he was doing to the point where he didn't want to be disturbed.

"Mmm?" A.J. made a soft sound at being addressed as he finished off a green square and then, turning his head, he blinked. "Oh. Hey, Beauty."

He smiled a little. God she was a sign for sore, emo eyes....

Oh, that greeting didn't do anything to alleviate Beauty's worries. She tried to give A.J. a cheerful smile and mostly wound up looking like she was trying way too hard.

"I haven't seen you in...way too long, so I wanted to come and say hi..." she began, then her voice trailed off and she eyed the counter. "May I come around behind for a minute?"

Re: Talk to A.J. -- 12/02

A.J.'s head tilted a little as he blinked at the strange request. "Uh, yeah, sure. Of course."

Re: Talk to A.J. -- 12/02

Beauty nodded, and walked around to the back of the counter. She went straight up to A.J. and put her arms around his neck.

Re: Talk to A.J. -- 12/02

[by137.livejournal.com]

Hey, well. That was...

...really, really nice, and appreciated after yesterday, and so his arms went around Beauty's waist as he hugged her lightly back. And then a little tighter, his head ducking a bit. "What was that for?" he asked quietly into her shoulder.

"You seemed like you could use it," Beauty answered softly, making no move to pull away. "I heard that you and Annette had an argument, and...well, you just looked so sad."

Mod your Service -- 12/02

As you do.

Chris and Lana found a table in the corner.

Chris glanced at the specials board and shook his head, instead picking up the menu.

"Is it too late for breakfast?" he asked Lana.

Re: Mod your Service -- 12/02

"I don't think so," Lana said. "Sunday brunch... You should be able to get whatever you'd like."

Re: Mod your Service -- 12/02

[neurotic-witch.livejournal.com]

"Good, cause I'm really in the mood for eggs," Chris said. "Although... a burger might be good, too."

Re: Mod your Service -- 12/02

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

"Mmmm..." Lana said, looking at the menu. "I have no idea what I want. Maybe the pancakes?"

Re: Mod your Service -- 12/02

[neurotic-witch.livejournal.com]

"Pancakes are good," he agreed.

Re: Mod your Service -- 12/02

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

"You'd think anything I wanted to eat was good," Lana said with a grin. "But I think, yes, pancakes with bacon."

Re: Mod your Service -- 12/02

Chris grinned back. "I can't decide between breakfast or a burger. Maybe both."
