When Hardison came downstairs to the restaurant today, he found it bedecked in rainbow streamers, bunting, and flags. "I see y'all have already heard," he said, fighting back a grin. He wasn't certain how the staff had all managed to dye their aprons in rainbow colors so quickly (had they had them saved and hidden away somewhere?) but he wasn't going to ruin the magic of the moment by asking.
"Yup!" the dishwasher said, rainbow flags the size of cocktail umbrellas decorating his hair. "And we decided to do a little celebrating. Hope you don't mind."
"Y'know, I think on a day like today, a little celebration is in order," Hardison declared. "Free cake for everyone?"

Maybe...maybe explaining a few things about his life to her would be easier than he thought.
