[h2] [centre] Marinalia (Romus) Olympus [/centre] [/h2] [h3] [centre] The Old Starboard, Sunday afternoon [/centre] [/h3] Noting Ren was somewhat showing signs of having a few, not too many and still sobre ernough to function though the roads might not be very safe of he was driving. There was somthing strange about him though Marilania could not put her finger on it. He seemed about to say something then came the outburst. A sudden dash to the toilets, definitely somthing up there though she had known him all of 5 minutes and be very rude to pry. [color=6ecff6][i]"sure. Il watch your books" [/i][/color] The other man had arrived, thr bar seemed to be friendly and the alcohol had rather a handy effect to make people less awkward even though she was stuck on tea and the non alcoholics. The guy seemed to ramble alot, what was it with this place and men tripping over there own tongues, not like she was wearing anything provocative. Pink track top, skirt, boots, coat folded neatly next get bags and pair of aviators on the table. Vintage from the 50's and thr kind you saw in a old WW2 movie. Smiling slightly, the rambling was not crazy rambling at least. [color=6ecff6] [i] "well I kinda was looking at you.. I was not sure if you where someone I knew from anchorage" [/i][/color] That was a lie, but it might cover for the staring, and maybe make her seem less like she was stalking him. Hardly a good way to meet someone in any capacity. Anchorage. The English accent was always fun to have at times. The pool, OK.. No worries there, they both where being about as low key creepy as the other. This was a rather diffrent day than Marinalia had planned. [color=6ecff6][i]"yeah... I'm a regular if life let's me, rota work and all. Try to get a few km in before things get too busy with all the kids. I used to swim competive until I had some bad luck with a injury" [/i][/color] Injury, yeah knife wound to the gut but that rather put people on edge, questions and all. Injury, one no one ever saw, bar a few lovers and family she had pained to hide that one for years. [color=6ecff6][i]"So, apart from awkward bar meetings. What's your thing?"
