Luke's Diner, August 24 (Monday)

The laptop was back out today, and Lacey had finally been able to get the pandas in MyZoo. Lacey had also spent most of the previous day watching a marathon of Planet Earth on the Discovery Channel, which meant that there was a lot of cooing over the Breeding screen.

Because those virtual Facebook animals had really wanted to have facts about their own feeding habits and proximity to extinction related to them by a well-meaning but ditzy coffeeslinger. Really.

Today's Specials
Plum Onion Turkey Sandwich (on honey wheat bread)
Potato Salad
Turkey Meatloaf

Help Wanted -- Please See Manager for Details
Several Shifts Available


Luke's is open, and in no danger of not passing a health department hygiene check (hopefully), since all the animals are virtual. Right.

Because breeding is still SRS BZNS.

Who knew that learning to fight with a knife worked up such an appetite? He ordered one of each of the things on the special board. He wanted something different, and had figured out that pointing at things was the easiest way to order if he didn't understand what it said.

"That's a lotta food, dude," Bobby said as he watched this ordering process.

"Tis how he'll grow," George teased, relaxing back into the booth. It was beginning to feel like this was their spot. Almost like if they were at the Dancing Dove.

"You guys can have some if you want," Kyle offered. "George was teaching me how to fight using a knife," he explained to Bobby.

"You know how to knife-fight?" Bobby was more curious than surprised. Of all his friends here, George was definitely the most likely to know how to do so, after all.

"Aye," George said, grinning at Bobby's curiosity. "Tis a bit of a necessity in th' Lower City. An' Kyle here said he'd been wantin' t'learn."

"I can shoot and blow things up okay," he was a damned good shot. Explosives needed some work, "but I never got a chance to learn to fight with only a knife. I figure it's something I should know."

"Wow," Bobby shook his head. "I don't really know how to use knives or guns or any of that stuff. Never needed to, I guess." Another truth that wasn't quite the whole truth.

The half-lie caught George's interest, and he raised an eyeborw curiously at Bobby. "Never?"

Who needed weapons when you could just make them out of thin air? Or, okay, technically out of the moisture in the air but details. "My world just isn't that dangerous?" he tried. Okay, that was most definitely a lie.

Re: Mod Your Service

[identity profile] weetinyreese.livejournal.com 2009-08-25 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
"Every world is dangerous," Kyle protested. "Don't you have crime?"

Re: Mod Your Service

[identity profile] noearsyet.livejournal.com 2009-08-25 04:40 am (UTC)(link)
"Or tisn't a danger you're worried about?" George asked, taking a shot in thw dark and still watching Bobby quizzically.

"Not... really?" Bobby said, jumping on that like it was a lifeline. There was crime and then there was supervillan crime. Getting mugged wasn't as much of a concern, no.

"Haven't you ever wanted to learn to defend yourself anyway?" Kyle asked, genuinely curious.

Re: Mod Your Service

"Or d'ye have magic t'do that wit'?" George asked innocently.
longislandiceme: (eyeroll)

Re: Mod Your Service

[personal profile] longislandiceme 2009-08-25 05:06 am (UTC)(link)
"It's not magic!" Bobby blurted out without thinking.

Re: Mod Your Service

[identity profile] weetinyreese.livejournal.com 2009-08-25 05:19 am (UTC)(link)
That silence around the booth? Yeah, awkward. "What's not magic?" Kyle asked patiently, his voice much lower than Bobby's had been.

Re: Mod Your Service

[identity profile] noearsyet.livejournal.com 2009-08-25 05:22 am (UTC)(link)
"Not that there's aught wrong wit' magic" was George's (also quieter) contribution.

"Well, no, I guess not," Bobby shrugged, actually remembering to lower his own voice too. Dr. Strange was kind of, well, strange but still one of the good guys after all. "But this is more- it's just something I can do?" Real helpful explanation, Bobby.

Does the plum onion turkey sandwich actually have all three of those ingredients on it? Or is there something called a "plum onion"?

(This is totes vital information.)

Hee, good question -- it's actually something on the menu at one of my favorite coffeeshops but I've only ever had it once (and they don't have their menu online). I do, however, believe that it is in fact a plum and onion chutney sort of spread on there.
