[oom: Dinner with [livejournal.com profile] captainryan]

[from here]

River arrives in the bar just before seven in the evening, and secures a table for two in a cozy corner of the bar.  She's dressed casually, wearing her favourite Irish sweater, jeans and her tan field boots.  But she has to confess, she's spent a bit more time with her hair and her face.

For as interesting as Richard is, he is also a good looking man.

She orders a glass of pinot noir, and waits, watching the faces in the crowd.  When she sees him, she smiles broadly and holds up a hand.

She's about to find out why he only wants her to pay for half his meal.

"Fillet steak, rare, side of potatoes, and a salad in the usual proportions, if you please." Ryan head tilts at the rat, arching one eyebrow. "You can ask Bar if you don't know them."

"Bar's an excellent cook," Ryan says approvingly, hiding a grin. He's a little amused she would think of asking that for her steak.

Then again, she probably ran across something in the Library about it.

He takes a sip of his Guinness, burying his nose in the heady aroma.

Ryan nearly snorts into his beer.

"Ah, yes. I suppose putting that a bit more eloquently would have been in my favour," he admits, a hint of sheepishness about him.

"That sounds about right."

[identity profile] captainryan.livejournal.com 2009-02-11 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
Ryan shakes his head. "I don't mind if you don't," he says wryly.

"However, I reserve the right to change my mind should we touch on something I'd rather not discuss. With no hard feelings, of course."

That should eliminate the chastised scent for the evening, right?

"I didn't think I was that challenging to talk to," Ryan remarks mildly.

He's smirking a bit, though he's trying to hide it behind a sip of his beer.

He should've brought mints, dammit. He just didn't know.

"Fair enough," he agrees. "As you were saying, then?" Unless she'd rather switch to another topic.

"That last sounds a but like the sirens. I'm not surprised, though. What's the old saying? Every legend has a grain of truth to it?"

He's going slowly on his own pint. He isn't easily intoxicated and he doesn't want to make it seem like he's trying to get pissed.

[identity profile] captainryan.livejournal.com 2009-02-11 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
"I've heard that before," Ryan comments, moving his pint aside to make room for his plate.

Well. Platter, really. There's enough food on his side of the table to feed two, maybe three people.

"Any mention of why? Or is it all just attributed to magic?"

[identity profile] captainryan.livejournal.com 2009-02-11 04:10 am (UTC)(link)
"Violence I might believe." Particularly given his own condition. "I'm rather more dubious about accidents, however. That's more likely just people looking for a scapegoat."

Dinner smells great. He starts eating himself, once again careful to not start wolfing anything. His food still disappears at a pretty good clip.

Ryan nods.

"It's a twenty-eight day cycle, only one moon. The landscaping outside is Terran as well, modelled after Scotland." He tilts his head thoughtfully.

"Really, it's no wonder so many people here are from Earth, considering."

"Bits and pieces," Ryan says after mulling it over. "A great majority is sensory information, touch, sound.

"Taste." He takes another bite of his steak.

[identity profile] captainryan.livejournal.com 2009-02-11 04:49 am (UTC)(link)
"Iiii had a beer," he admits, smiling wryly. "Milliways wasn't what I was expecting. To be fair, I'm not sure what I was expecting, but a bar at the end of space and time was not it."

It seems like kind of a long time ago, now.
