Out for a drink [tag Rory, ota]

[nomore_hiding]

After she finished up at the newspaper, Raven sent Rory a message to see if he wanted to get a drink. When he said he did, she made her way over to the Black Sheep to wait for him. She picked out a table and ordered two Guinness and a straw for Rory. She kept an eye on the door waiting for her husband to arrive. Anyone who knew her would see she

Rory stopped just outside the pub to catch his breath. He was a little tired, but nothing he needed to worry about, he figured. But when the door opened, he grinned, wheeling his way in to look for her.

Ah, there she was! "There's me wife!" he crowed as he got closer. "Hallo, darlin'!"

[nomore_hiding]

She grinned back when she saw him, standing up so that she could lean over him and give him a long kiss, "Hello, babe."

"Mmmm," he hummed, still grinning as she pulled back. "And how's me pretty wife?"

[nomore_hiding]

"She's amazing, now that her wonderful husband is here." she answered with a laugh, moving to sit, "Already go you your Guinness."

"And she's kind and considerate to boot!" Tucking his chair close up under the table, he said, "busy day at the candy store," he told her. "Little people runnin' all over."

Raven lifted his beer with the straw to his mouth, "And with sugar highs. I can imagine that's tiring."

"Eh, it's kinda like they're very happy, loudly happy. I wonder who that sounds like," Rory joked before taking a long sip of his beer, eyes never leaving her face.

She laughed, joking right back at him, "I have no idea who that sounds like. Complete mystery."

"Some random Irish bloke. There's a few of us here." His smile softened as he looked at her. "And how was your day? Were you takin' over the village word at a time?"

[nomore_hiding]

"Pff." she scoffed, "Hardly, I just keep struggling for what to write about. There was the silence thing. But I have to talk to some people to see if they actually have any clue as to why it happened..."

"Bet your brother's the one to talk to, eh?" he said with a verbal shrug. "Or maybe it was just a village fuck-up?"

[nomore_hiding]

"I'll ask him, but I'm leaning toward it just being the village messing with us like usual." she nodded, taking a sip of her own beer.

"Boy that silence thing ... " he sighed and would shake his head if he could. It had been terrible. Terrible!

[nomore_hiding]

"Know if must have been torture for you, Mr. Loud Irish Bloke." Raven smirked, teasingly.

[insidedancing]

"Torture!" he crowed. "That's the word for it! Torture. Maybe you can do a story on me. Profile on how shite it was for the village to make it so that I couldn't talk, yeah?"

[nomore_hiding]

"It would have to be a satire." she smirked, reaching over to pat his cheek and laughing a bit. Although really, she loved the sound of his voice, no matter how loud.
