Second Floor Common Room, Wednesday Evening

[wantstodirect]

For the Darkest Night finale episode, Tony handwavily picked up a couple of pizzas and several pints of ice cream. He filled up a plate for himself with a little of each. Mmm, pepperoni and chocolate. Wasn't too bad, actually.

Tonight's season finale episode featured a number of flashbacks from Raymond Dark's life. From the previews, it looked like most of them involved waterfalls, children in white clothing and butterflies. Very existential. Tony hoped they could fit some shirtless Lee in there somewhere. Maybe under the waterfall.

"I'm not even sure what croquet is," Tony admitted. "Other than some kind of game with balls. Is it a Victorian game?"

[bitten_notshy]

"I don't know the history," Jack said. "You try to knock balls through hoops with mallets, and without getting bored to tears. I don't play much."

Outside games + vampire guardians do not = OTP.

"Do you like sports?"

"I like watching hockey and baseball. Not all that into playing," Tony said. "Do you have those where you're from?"

[bitten_notshy]

"Hockey yes, baseball no," Jack said. "Or I don't think so. I've never been much of an athlete -- it might have escaped my notice."

His eyes flickered to Tony's face. "Did we still want to have dinner this week?"

"I'd like to, if you're still up for it," Tony said. "When's good for you?"

[bitten_notshy]

"Is it too much of a rush to say tomorrow?" Jack wondered. "You can pick the place."

And, because it was a potential problem and he doubted Tony would have much to say about it, he added: "I keep kosher, but I can find something on most menus."

"Tomorrow's fine," Tony said. "I need to eat tomorrow anyway, so it works." He didn't know much about kosher rules. "There's Chinese, Thai, pizza, the diner, Sushi Station - anything sound good?"

[bitten_notshy]

"You eat every day?" Jack asked in mock-shock. "Greedy! But I've never had sushi. I'll try that, if you think I'd like it."

"It's raw fish," Tony warned him. "I like it, but it's not for everyone."

[bitten_notshy]

"I have a strong stomach," Jack promised, half out of bravado and half because it was true. "I'll put up the post meet you there."

[wantstodirect]

"All right," Tony smiled. "It's a plan."
