Caritas, Friday Evening

Oh, Friday night. Mike had looked forward to this all week. Just because it meant the start of the weekend, not because he had any particular glee at showing up for his shift. Not that he didn't enjoy it here! He did. He'd just had another long week.

TONIGHT'S SPECIALS
Bird Feeder
Black Feather
Crow's Nest


Yeah, Mike didn't know, either. Easter was... birdlike?

After his lovely trip to Beacon Hills with Stiles, Derek needed to bite the bullet and talk to Mike about next weekend.

Yes.

"Birds?"
newroutines: ([neu] Down to business.)

[personal profile] newroutines 2014-04-18 06:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Mike shrugged. "I don't even know, man." He really didn't. "The other choice was egg-based stuff."
justlurkinghere: (talking at you)

[personal profile] justlurkinghere 2014-04-18 07:01 pm (UTC)(link)
"I would have gone with chocolate personally." Because he seemed like such a chocolate person.
newroutines: ([neu] Listening sans approval.)

[personal profile] newroutines 2014-04-18 07:19 pm (UTC)(link)
"Well, I'll keep that in mind for next year." Or Christmas, or just some random Friday that he was feeling like chocolate. "Anyway, what's up? You, uh, you get back from Beacon Hills okay?"
justlurkinghere: (sassing you)

[personal profile] justlurkinghere 2014-04-18 07:25 pm (UTC)(link)
"No one died." Derek, don't joke about that. Seriously.
newroutines: ([neu] Oh I see.)

[personal profile] newroutines 2014-04-18 07:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, he was getting kind of a dry look for that one.

"That'd be a lot funnier if I didn't know what kind of place it is, bro."
justlurkinghere: (sighing so much)

[personal profile] justlurkinghere 2014-04-18 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
...point.

Derek shrugged at that. "It was fine. This time."
newroutines: ([pos adam] Chilling.)

[personal profile] newroutines 2014-04-18 07:52 pm (UTC)(link)
"Well. Good." That was the best he could do. "You want anything to drink?"

Water was what he meant, basically.
justlurkinghere: (Default)

[personal profile] justlurkinghere 2014-04-18 08:12 pm (UTC)(link)
"Water." YOU KNEW HIM SO WELL.
newroutines: ([pos] Heh.)

[personal profile] newroutines 2014-04-18 08:30 pm (UTC)(link)
It was like he knew the limited options for a non alcohol drinking person in a bar!

"Okay, one water coming right up," he said as he went to get just that. "Facing such great challenges in my job tonight."

[personal profile] justlurkinghere 2014-04-18 08:58 pm (UTC)(link)
"I don't even want to ask what's in a crow's nest." Other than bird poop.
newroutines: ([pos adam] Chilling.)

[personal profile] newroutines 2014-04-18 09:22 pm (UTC)(link)
"Gin and sweet sherry. I don't know, I got it out of a book here."

He slid the glass of water over to Derek. No bird poop involved.
justlurkinghere: (sassing you)

[personal profile] justlurkinghere 2014-04-18 09:29 pm (UTC)(link)
"Sounds awful," Derek replied, taking a sip of water.
newroutines: ([neu] Down to business.)

[personal profile] newroutines 2014-04-18 09:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Mike just shrugged.

"Well, sometimes you gotta taste the awful stuff to appreciate the good shit more."
justlurkinghere: (the shit I put up with)

[personal profile] justlurkinghere 2014-04-18 09:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Derek 'My life is unending pain and misery' Hale just gave him a look for that.

"Do you have a job next weekend?"
newroutines: ([neu] Definitely listening.)

[personal profile] newroutines 2014-04-18 09:42 pm (UTC)(link)
"... None that I can recall off the top of my head."

He was just surprised about being asked, was all.

"Why?"
justlurkinghere: (side eyeing you so hard right now)

[personal profile] justlurkinghere 2014-04-18 09:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Derek cleared his throat, looking away. "It's graduation."
newroutines: ([neu] How is that supposed to work?)

[personal profile] newroutines 2014-04-18 09:56 pm (UTC)(link)
"... And?"

Sorry, he was going to be a little slow about this.
justlurkinghere: (talking at you)

[personal profile] justlurkinghere 2014-04-18 10:02 pm (UTC)(link)
DAMN IT, MIKE. KEEP UP ON THE RELATIONSHIP DRAMA.

"And Stiles is graduating."
newroutines: ([pos] He did that to himself.)

[personal profile] newroutines 2014-04-18 10:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Hey, he had multiple jobs to keep track of! It kind of took precedence over keeping track of relationship drama that didn't directly involve him.

So it took him a second to parse this.

And then he did.

"Oh! Oh, you want me out of the house."
justlurkinghere: (...his password is ALSO Allison?)

[personal profile] justlurkinghere 2014-04-18 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
"I can get you a hotel room--" Wait. "--you already know?"

LIKE IT HAD BEEN A GIANT SECRET.
newroutines: ([pos] Heh.)

[personal profile] newroutines 2014-04-18 10:43 pm (UTC)(link)
"Dude, it's not like you were going to ask me to come to the grad ceremony with you." Seriously now. "I'll... sort something out. Y'all just have a nice time."

Or something.

"He'd probably like you there." PHRASING. "For graduation. Not after."

"Yeah, you really didn't need to spell that one out for me, but thanks," Mike told him, raising his eyebrows. "I should be available 'cause, like I said, I don't think I have work then."
justlurkinghere: (side eyeing you so hard right now)

[personal profile] justlurkinghere 2014-04-18 11:13 pm (UTC)(link)
"Good." This was awkward. So, so awkward.
newroutines: ([neu] Down to business.)

[personal profile] newroutines 2014-04-18 11:25 pm (UTC)(link)
And yet weirdly less awkward for Mike than he would have expected it to be.

He nodded. "'Kay. Good."

... Okay, now it was exactly that awkward for him.
justlurkinghere: (that's a terrible idea)

[personal profile] justlurkinghere 2014-04-18 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Derek made a face at that, because yes. Yes, Mike. You made it more awkward somehow.

"Can we pretend this conversation never happened?"
newroutines: ([neu] Definitely listening.)

[personal profile] newroutines 2014-04-18 11:31 pm (UTC)(link)
"Fine by me."

Seriously. So fine.
justlurkinghere: (side eyeing you so hard right now)

[personal profile] justlurkinghere 2014-04-18 11:34 pm (UTC)(link)
That got a nod of agreement and Derek taking a sip of the water like it would make things less awkward. And... nope. It did nothing of the sort.

"I'm going to just go now."

And hide from everyone.
