Mixedpups, That Bar Thing: Three soldiers
Kaidy Hawkins, Nixverse
There is a stocky blonde pilot in her thirties lounging against the outside wall next to the back door, smoking like a chimney and humming to herself.
Her grey eyes are cool, but not unfriendly, and she wouldn't object to company if you wouldn't object to the cigarette smoke.
Gwen Cooper, Torchwood
(Spoilers for episode 1 of Miracle Day!)
There's a dark-haired woman sitting at a central table with a pint of bitter. She's smiling to herself, refusing to feel guilty, and her eyes are fixed on the Viewing Window.
It's almost as if she's home.
Neville Longbottom, Harry Potter
A plump, scared-looking eleven-year-old boy is peering nervously around the door, torn between the Transfiguration class he knows he should be getting to and the delicious smells wafting from the bar kitchens.
(He spent breakfast hunting for Trevor, again, and then fleeing from a gaggle of second-year Slytherins.)
