When Simon stops by the bar for a quick cup of coffee, the note is delivered alongside it. He doesn't recognize the name, but there's something familiar about the sentence structure, especially in connection with the subject matter --

Oh. Oh, of course.

The man in charge; he must mean Michelangelo. He'd have to have gotten the barman's approval for producing anything like this on-site. It might be too much to hope that this note constitutes a peace offering, but ... maybe he's spoken to Gaeta since as well, and worked out the misunderstanding. Maybe at least he's decided that they can work with each other, in some measure of cooperation and civility.

Or maybe it is a peace offering.

After a quick glance around, Simon asks the bar for pen and paper, and writes the following.

( Mr. Crowder: )

He leaves the note with Bar, and heads back for the front door.

[Open to tags if anyone wants to catch Simon on his way out, but mostly here for purposes of the note.]

It's probably cheating- no, it's definitely cheating, Gordon knows it. But.

He's been in discussion with Kleiner and Magnusson and four other scientists for the past six hours straight, arguing over the equipment complement and final steps that need to be taken for everyone before launching for the Overworld. He's been dealing with getting the babies to sleep long enough for Alyx to have a rest. He's been trying to nap or have an uninterrupted meal and failing miserably because people keep coming to find him to discuss preparations for the Overworld or to ask him about the children or any number of other topics. He's had enough.

Barney's currently watching Eli and Hope, and Alyx, the last Gordon saw, was taking a well-deserved nap. That's Gordon's cue to duck out of the Greenbrier and into the Bar, where he is going to get one of those Austrian beers he can't find anywhere else and a plate of the kind of fried-but-still-nourishing food they used to shovel into their faces when he was at Innsbruck. and then he is going to go upstairs and crash and maybe when he's had some sleep he'll be in a good position to come back to West Virginia and deal with things.

Go ahead and bother him anyway. At least it'll be a different kind of bothering.


[OOC: This is probably going to be Gordon's last non-plotty EP for a while!]

(a nice quiet breakfast)

[i_got_vision]

Hey, you know who's still around? Butch Cassidy, that's who. He's still Bound, and has totally been working in the stables all this time, when he's not up in his room or out enjoying nature. Honest.

Maybe he's just been working extra to replace the harmonica Johnny had taken; but he's got a new one now, and life is good. No complaints.

Just a nice quiet breakfast over at the bar, waffles--did you know you can get waffles with fruit on them? It's fancy but it's so good--and bacon and coffee. Botherable, though you may not like this much good cheer this early in the morning.

[janebecomes]

Jane is engaged to be married to Mr. Wisley, it was just arranged in the back garden. She accepted his proposal and now she wishes to be elsewhere. When she opens the door to the barn, she finds Milliways, its unexpected but not unwelcome. If she had gone into the house, there would be too much talk and she doesn't wish for that.

At the counter, she finds a napkin asking her to tend, she doesn't want to but she will. That seems to be the theme of her life at the moment and she begins by pouring herself a glass of claret as she considers the specials. She has rarely used the cocktail book but tonight she will indulge herself in the choices of drink names as she can do this for herself.

Specials
Claret
Rum
Tea
Gone Tomorrow
Lost for Words
Love Hurts
Please tell me of successful marriages that you know of and your drink will be half off. Thank you.

Perhaps she will learn some things that will make her hopeful as Milliways has a way of providing new perspectives.

Jack comes into Milliways tonight looking rather more relaxed than he did last time.

He also looks considerably less injured. All the surface wounds have mostly been dealt with, though he's still limping slightly.

He steps through and smiles. The first thing he does, is head to the bar and order a lemonade.

Once he's got that, he turns round to survey the bar and see who's here.

It's late, but sleep hasn't come yet for a certain troll. The last few nights have brought troubled sleep for Kanaya, sopor slime or no, so this evening she's a little reluctant to head upstairs and climb into her recuperacoon.

So, there is a young troll curled on one end of one of the couches, a laptop on her lap and displaying a movie while Kanaya watches through a half-lidded gaze.
