It had been a long shift, but it was over and it was time to enjoy a pint or two at her favorite pub. Delilah, Del to most, sat on a stool at the bar and drank her Guinness. This was how she unwound at the end of a day. Perched on a bar stool and putting down some pints.

Del thought about just going back to her flat, but she did have to stop and get some groceries. Her icebox was empty except for some beer.

Out of habit she looked around the bar. She quickly did a threat assessment of each person and noted any that stood out above the others.

She turned back to her beer.

	Del had to laugh. It had been awhile since she could just relax and engage in light conversation and joke around. She was beginning to get a little too uptight like her father. "Not bad. Not bad at all." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"They're just fine," Del said with some finality. She took a long drink of her beer. "How are things State-side? We heard about the thing in New York of course." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"State side? Things are a mess. Further we dig, the more places we find Apocalypse's fingers. Secret societies, government programs, terrorists... all kinds of fun. And while the big hit was there, he wasn't planning on stopping at New York. We're finding fingerprints around the globe." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"So business as normal where Apocalypse is concerned?" she asked. "My parents told me about him. Aunt Moira and Uncle Sean as well." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"MacTaggart and Cassidy?" he asks, mildly surprised. Its common enough names around here, but still. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Del nodded. "Yes. I grew up on Muir island with them. Mom and Dad weren't exactly parenting material." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That's quite a facility from what I've heard. So who is mom and dad, if I can ask?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It is, but it's home." There was a fond smile on her face. "Lucas Bishop and Sage are my parents." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I hadn't, but I was curious," she admitted. She downed the rest of her beer and set the empty glass on the bar. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah, guess it kinda stands out. You ready for dinner?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	electrified 2010-03-16 09:02 pm UTC (link)
	"Waiting on you," she grinned and nodded toward his beer. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He finishes the last of it in one swallow, then tosses a few bills on the table. "Ought to cover it. So, where're we headed?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Del chuckled and hooked an arm with his. "Just down the block. There's a great Indian place." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	heytheredelilah 2010-03-16 09:16 pm UTC (link)
	"Haven't had Indian in ages, sounds good." he replies, happy to walk with her on his arm. "I'll try not to keep you out too late." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I haven't had a curfew in many years and Daddy's not home waiting up for me with his big guns," she joked as they walked. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hey, just said I wouldn't keep you out too late. How late I keep you awake is another matter entirely. Up to you." he replies amusedly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Del chuckled. "Let's get through dinner first and see what happens. I have to see how you handle your curry first." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hey, all's fair. I'm only in town for the night, but for that, whatever you want to do. Dinner, dancing, clubbing, whatever. Long as I'm at work at 4. Provided I meet your exacting curry-standards." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Got it. Let's see where the night takes us then." (Reply to this)(Parent)
