Breakfast?

I think I'm getting the hang of this? I hope I'm getting the hang of this? *is still new at these sort of comms*

[After This OOM]

Merrick's decided to see if he's still crazy. Or at least if what happened all those weeks ago was a dream. Besides, he figures that a live-in bar no matter how strange could be useful considering the collateral damage-hell the blowback that's incurred at the institute since his last visit.

So he tries the door.

well... He peers around at a Milliways engaged in its early morning routines. Or at least he thinks its early morning, its hard to tell. Considering that how in his own time it's mid afternoon. Or something along those lines. Jet Lag and all that.

He sits down at the bar, wondering if you have to ask for a menu, or if one will be presented to you...or just how to go about the business of eating breakfast. He's just a little grumpy, but he'll take friendly advice.

She'd not expected the contact of his hand upon her shoulder, but tensed only a second in reaction. "It does happen," Ivy replied gently. "How often I could not say. I was Bound when I first came here, but was later able to leave again. Some say the bar keeps you here if you have a lesson to learn, although I couldn't rightly tell you what my lesson was." That was possibly not the complete truth, but it mattered little. "If it eases your mind any, you might be glad to know that for most people, the way I understand it, when you are Bound, time stops in your world even as it goes on here. It is comforting to know that you will not be missed, in any case."
