Bartending!

Claire steps behind the bar and immediately sets about wiping her down and then straightening the rows of liquor and garnishes. She's in a good mood today and hums to herself as she works.

When she's finally done, she turns to the patrons around the bar and smiles.


"Can I get anybody anything?"



[[summary: Tony tell Claire about his fight with Jack and Michelle. She promises to talk to Michelle if she sees her around. She meets fellow Aussie Adam/Felicia/Sparkles for much yay. She and Guppy agree to forget about their hellfly grievances. She apologizes to Barry for her behavior last week and then explains her love for Sawyer. She meets Jack and Teddy and they set up plans for a picnic. She and Penny discuss the logistics of being wed to a war god and Asar-Suti comes by to apologize for not keeping a better eye on the hellfly.]]

"It's okay," she nods in understanding.

"He doesn't make a good impression with most people. With me either, to be honest. I just. . .I got to know him and things were different then, you know?"

There is a small hint of a smile on her lips. The same shy one she always has when she thinks about Sawyer.

He nods, and also notices a little that smile. It's sweet.

"I think so. People change here. I'm more relaxed. Less uptight. I think my friends wouldn't be too surprised, but sometimes I am. So it makes sense it could hapeen to Sawyer as well."

"He's very sweet," she grins and then leans in conspiratorially. "But don't tell him I said that."

[silverageflash.livejournal.com]

"No. Of course not. He would deny it anyway. Most men would." He smirks

"But why?" she grins. "It's not bad to be sweet. It's a good thing."

He smiles and shkaes his head.

"It's a macho thing. I have no problem being called sweet. My wife did, and i think Sara would do the same. But some men just don't like to me that way. Especially people for whom being tough is part of the job. Like cops, and conmen. Might be the one thing they have in common."

"It's probably not the only thing," she smiles. "We're all made of the same things. We just make different decisions."

She tops his lemonade off a little more.

"But, that is perhaps a discussion for another time."

"Perhaps. And I tihnk each of us should have something about our lover that we don't share sometimes." He smiles a little wickely.

"Anyway, I think I shall be going. Have a good one, Claire."

She grins. "Bye Barry."
