Fandom Island Museum, Thursday Daytime

[hasaknightjob]

Steven once again had his rainbow flag pin on. The Museum's Pride exhibits had been taken care of, so he was now at the Welcome Desk working on a new idea he'd had: Coloring pages of things found in the Museum for little ones to use when they visited.

Of course he couldn't draw so currently he was researching how one got coloring pages when one was not an artist. Which in and of itself was an interesting deep dive.

In the meanwhile he was available for anyone who had any questions or wanted a tour or a chat.

What about someone who wanted to have lunch?

"Hello, you," Watts greeted as he approached the desk.

[hasaknightjob]

Steven's bright smile when he saw Llewellyn probably provided something of an answer.

"Hello, you," he said. "Aren't you looking handsome?"

[pocketpretzels]

"I do hope you don't greet all your patrons so," Watts said, grinning back at him.

[hasaknightjob]

"Not possible," Steven said. "That would require them to be as handsome as you, you see."

[pocketpretzels]

"Flirt," Watts said, though he looked pleased by the compliment. "Ready for lunch?"

[hasaknightjob]

Steven put out the sign saying he was taking his break. He then came around the desk to join Llewellyn. "Yes, please."

[pocketpretzels]

Watts, meanwhile, deposited his hat on the desk with his usual flourish, holding the arm not carrying their lunch out for Steven to take.

[hasaknightjob]

Steven smiled fondly at that flourish. He took Llewellyn's offered arm. "How's your morning been then?"

[pocketpretzels]

"Routine," Watts admitted. "Which is- there's certainly nothing bad about that. This, after all, is a favourite routine of mine," he said, gesturing to the two of them.

[hasaknightjob]

"Remarkable coincidence, that," Steven said. "Mine as well."

[pocketpretzels]

"I was thinking of something we could discuss over our meal," Watts admitted as they reached their usual table and he pulled Steven's chair out for him as per usual.

[hasaknightjob]

"Oh?" Steven looked at Llewellyn curiously as he took the offered seat. "What's that?"

[pocketpretzels]

"Our anniversary," Watts said. "The day I declared myself still very much a fool." Yes, they'd already celebrated their first meeting, but this was the day they mutually agreed upon as the start of their courtship proper, even if it wasn't actually the anniversary of their first outing together. "It's coming up quite soon."

[hasaknightjob]

Steven took a moment to remind himself what month it was. The Pride displays were helpful in that regard. A smile touched his lips as he remembered Llewellyn coming into the museum that day. "End of this month, yes? June?"

[pocketpretzels]

"The 30th, yes," Watts confirmed. "We ought to figure out how we'd like to celebrate." Or more accurately, since this was them, where they would like to go.

[hasaknightjob]

"That's near a weekend, yes?" Steven said. "We could go on a short holiday."

[pocketpretzels]

"How strange, that is exactly what I was thinking," Watts said, in a tone that belied he did not think it strange at all. "Through Tuesday, perhaps? Since the 30th is on a Monday?"

[hasaknightjob]

"Good idea." Steven gave Llewellyn a warm look. "Wouldn't want to go far on the day itself, I think."

[pocketpretzels]

"Mmmm, no," Watts agreed, with a matching look. "I'll have plenty scenery to admire without leaving the room."

[hasaknightjob]

Steven blushed. "And more enjoyable things to do than worry about packing."

[pocketpretzels]

"Precisely," Watts said, grinning delightedly at that blush.

[hasaknightjob]

"Anywhere in particular you'd care to go?" Steven asked.

[pocketpretzels]

"I was just about to ask you that very same question," Watts admitted. A moment after he spoke, he reeled back as if mildly startled as he remembered that they were here for lunch, and reaching to unpack their sandwiches and crisps.

[hasaknightjob]

Steven took a deep breath. "Is that curry?"

He'd get to Llewellyn's question in a moment. After the food.

[pocketpretzels]

"It is!" Watts said, looking pleased. "I've been craving something with a bit of spice, but actual curry seemed- well. Not well suited to this weather."
