Third Floor Common Room, Lunchtime

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

After a handwavey walk into town for supplies, Dawn set out a bunch of sandwich fixings, pretzels, chips of various descriptions, cookies, fruit, lemonade, iced tea, and soda.

A small handwritten sign told people to help themselves, so she didn't have to keep repeating herself.

As for Dawn, she sat down with a book to enjoy her hummus with cheese, sprouts, carrots and sweet pickles. Occasionally she sipped from her lemonade.

"Yeah, that's a little strange for me too. It took a little while to adjust." She glanced over at Walter. "Who're you living with?"

After a minute, she blurted, "and, okay, I have to know, what's on that sandwich? My curiosity's killing me."

"Alphonse Elric," he made a gesture seemingly to indicate height. "Blonde, ponytail, often wears a red coat. He's an alchemist."

He held up his sandwich and scrutinized it. "Liverwurst, salami, ham, roast beef, lettuce, onion, watercress, pepperoncinis, cucumber, bean sprouts, some radicchio for a bit of bite, two kinds of mustard, mayonnaise, a bit of thousand island dressing, and rye bread for the layers in between the sourdough on the outside."

He held it out to her. "Why, did you want a bite?"

"Not sure I've met him," Dawn frowned, trying to remember. "Too many new people."

She looked down at her own hummus and sweet pickle pita scornfully. "And here I thought my sandwich won. I'm so outclassed." She looked at the sandwich. "If you wouldn't mind?"

Walter held it out to her. "Be my guest."

Dawn accepted the sandwich and tried to figure out how to get her mouth around it. "Here goes nothing," she said, then took a bite, her eyes widening. Once she'd swallowed, she handed it back, then said, "Wow, that's really good."

Walter watched with amusement and laughed at the face Dawn made trying to fit the sandwich in her mouth. "You must have very discerning tastes, then, since it's not for everyone."

"Discerning is one way to put it," Dawn said dryly, then chuckled. "But some people just call it weird. No offense meant to your sandwich, of course."

"I'm certain that my sandwich's honor remains untarnished." To prove it, Walter had a big bite, although he waited to chew and swallow before continuing. "Yes, untarnished."

"Yay. Because a sandwich like that is a thing of beauty and should remain unsullied."

[walter-n-wires.livejournal.com]

"I'll remember your feelings on the matter the next time a sandwich-making opportunity arises."

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"Thanks," she smiled at him, "I appreciate that."

"My pleasure. And on that note, I believe I will go try to do something productive before I have to go to work. Thank you very much for the sandwich and the conversation."

"You're welcome, on both counts. Good luck at work."
