 Explaining that I'm pretty sure my wheelchair is at the bottom of the bay went over great at the hospital.  Sorry if anyone was worried that I'd vanished, but there's not a lot of call for a coffee-shop in a pirate cove.  I decided it was best just to hide out until things went back to normal yesterday, and after that I got kind of caught up in editing my next video.  It should be ready soon.

Still, it'll be good to get back into the regular routine, even if that means coping with my usual Monday class-load tomorrow after so long on 'vacation' in centuries past.

... You're probably right. I could use your help, for that matter.

I'm free any evening after eight.

Of course. If there's anything I can do, I'd be happy to.

Your apartment, then? Will your roommate be all right?

Right now it might be better if we met somewhere else. Come by the coffee shop at closing time?

[librariansheart]

Oh, certainly. You know best. Would Tuesday evening be all right?

[detectivewonder]

Tuesday should be fine.

[Sheska turned up at the coffee shop on Tuesday, just as she'd said, directly after the end of her shift. She really wasn't sure how to go about this. She had tried to be somewhat discreet in her messages, and he was so smart, she was sure he'd gotten the reference. He hadn't seemed upset, either, and that he'd been willing to wait till now, that seemed like he wasn't too concerned, but she couldn't help being a bit nervous.

She essayed a little smile and waved to Tim as the bell chimed, claiming her favorite out of the way table. Determined to make good use of the time until closing, she pulled out her latest research project. He'd come see her when he was ready.]
