Luke's, Thursday
"Huh." Greg looked up, surprised, as Duke came in for his usual Thursday shift. "You came back."
Behind him, Ali handed Danny some cash, looking annoyed.
"Shut up and get to work," Duke told them. "You all remember I'm your boss, right?"
His kitchen staff just laughed.
Today's specials
CATCH OF THE DAY!
Flounder a la moutarde
"You, uh." Danny leaned in surreptitiously, his voice low. "You remember this is a diner, right?"
Duke rolled his eyes and added to the specials board:
with french fries
"Better?"
Danny nodded and went back to work.
Luke's was open.

Hello to you, too, Octavia. And your tiny headtilt at the specials board.

She could make up for all of it by reaching up to meet him for that kiss.

The kitchen staff probably didn't miss this.
"You want anything to drink?"
Re: Talk to Duke
Octavia gave his fingers a squeeze.
"Sure," she said. "Diner-runner's choice."

Then she took a sip. Really focused on giving it a taste.
"... Oh, this is good."
Re: Talk to Duke
Danny swooped in with her french fries, then darted away to give them privacy. Duke stole one of the smaller fries from the edge of the plate and popped it into his mouth.
"Met any newbies yet?"
Re: Talk to Duke
She reached for a fry for herself, too. "Just one."
For her, even that was kind of impressive.
Re: Talk to Duke
He should probably refer to his new coteacher by name.
Re: Talk to Duke
Not quite what he'd asked, but a valid point all the same.
"The Jackdaw was here for a while last summer." About a week or something, but still.

Re: Talk to Duke
She looked down at the strawberries. Picked one up.
Got milder.
"It was a student."
Re: Talk to Duke
"Yeah?" He picked out another french fry. "Tell me about them."
