Fandom Island Museum, Tuesday Daytime

Steven made it to work on time, which he hoped was the first of what might be many bits of good fortune to the day.

In the meanwhile he was busy texting Layla to ask her about the weekend and about getting paperwork for Llewellyn. Which wasn't work related at all but it kept him busy while waiting to see if there were any visitors.

What do you mean, 'if', narrative?

Of course there would be at least one visitor today. Though admittedly he wasn't here for museum attractions so much as a particular attractive museum employee.

"Hello, you," he greeted, takeout bag in hand. "Lunch has arrived."

"Very cute." Did he mean the comment, or Steven himself? Either way, he followed it up with leaning across the counter to give Steven a quick peck on the cheek. Yes, in the museum lobby where anyone who might wander in could see. How very daring.
pocketpretzels: (curious)

“Of course,” Watts confirmed, depositing his hat (still with the flamingo feather, though it was looking a bit worse for wear at this point) on one corner of that sign and offering Steven his free arm.
pocketpretzels: (i dont think so)

Watts shot Steven a puzzled frown as they continued their walk to their usual lunch spot. “I thought you had sent her some already?”

Which, yes, but none of those were exactly appropriate for legal documentation.
pocketpretzels: (skeptical)

“Oh,” Watts said, looking somewhat sheepish. “I didn’t realise. I suppose we can take some once we’re sat down?” he asked.

Annie had ended up taking a little walk to make sure she got all the pumpkin pulp off her shoes after leaving Wanda, and had found herself down by the museum -- she'd passed it many times on her morning runs, but had never actually stopped in.

It was weird how much of Fandom she still hadn't explored, in spite of how long she'd been here now. Probably kind of one of those products of living in New York part time for the past year.

She ducked in quietly, offering out a quick, "Hey!" and a wave to Steven to be polite. (She didn't spend, like, a ton of time in museums. She didn't want to risk this being a library situation and and a potential shushing coming her way if she offered more than a greeting to start.)
pocketpretzels: (listening)

“All right,” Watts nodded. “Here?” since they were conveniently standing in fact near a stretch of blank wall.

Nell stopped in to try and see the only friend she hadn't managed to check in with since her return. "Steven?"
defenderofdesmoines: (annie - talking up at you)

[personal profile] defenderofdesmoines 2022-09-20 12:53 pm (UTC)(link)
"Hi!" Whew, no shushings. A relief! "Um, not really? I mean, I don't need anything particularly, I've just somehow never wandered in here before. I clearly need to get down to this end of the island more often."

Usually it was just in the name of exercise-slash-quietly resenting Captain America when he passed her. Or if she needed to visit one of her friends in their warehouses (a normal thing, of course.)

With a V got a very slight eyebrow-raise for Annie -- credit the universe that had taught her to be wary of any and all variations on things with a V -- but that didn't last long at all, given how religiously Annie listened to radio.

"Annie January," she replied, thrusting out a hand to shake with a bright smile. "It's nice to meet you, Steven. You've got one of those names I hear a lot on the radio." Partly because it was often paired with the name of one of her bar regulars. "Helps that you're not another Steve."

"It's good to see you," Nell said. "I can't tell you how much I missed all of you."

She put a hand up to her face a little self-consciously. "Lana took care of the bruises for me."

"I always follow his lead and call him Mr. Watts," Annie noted, both unaware that he would likely prefer to be addressed as Detective (but at least she tried!) and carefully listening to how Steven said Watts' given name in case she was ever invited to use it. "But yeah! I bartend at the Nest on Thursdays -- he's one of my regulars. Great sport about trying new drinks, I might add."
defenderofdesmoines: (annie - genuine delight)

"Thank you!" Annie replied, beaming at him. "Yeah, it's just under a month now. I'm just starting to enter that phase that everyone talks about where I kind of wish we'd just eloped, but my fiancé has a huge family and we would have never heard the end of it if we'd just snuck off and done something quiet."
