Happy Hour!

[john_not_ronald]

It hasn't been particularly long since John found himself in Milliways last. Only a month or so, but much has happened, and his head is still rather buzzing with it. Wendigo and Shadow-Born, and Jack losing his shadow, and seeing a boy-king claim his heritage, and Jack's fall and redemption.

And coming back to Staffordshire just in time for Edith to tell him that she's expecting (though that's a happiness he'll keep to himself for the time being).

He's a bit surprised to find himself here, really. He'd almost thought that Milliways must be connected to the Archipelago somehow and that he wouldn't find it again until he returned there, and he's pleased to discover that's not the case.

So when he steps up to the bar to order himself a drink and is given a napkin requesting a favor instead, he smiles and asks if there are any instructions, gets pointed in the direction of the Book, and cheerfully takes his place behind the bar, rummaging through said book for a moment before posting the evening's specials.


Specials:

Dragon's Blood

Dragon's Breath

The Army John



After a quick trip to the kitchen, he hastily adds:

Free slice of blueberry pie in exchange for a story about something (or someone) you love


He's rather happy to be home for a while.

"Oh," Finn says, uncertainly. "Sorry."

[john_not_ronald]

John waves away his apology. "It was a very long time ago. I hardly remember my father, really."

[takiena_called]

"Okay," he says, after a moment, essaying a smile. "Do you remember what South Africa was like?"

Now that he's likely to visit Kim soon, Finn's feeling more curious about--everywhere--than before.

John thinks for a moment. He was very young when they left. "I remember it was...warmer than England. And there were spiders. And elephants."
