Date with Alcuin

Apr 18, 2009 14:03

He'd done someone a favor, asked them to run a note up to Alcuin's home. It was done on one of the index cards he'd brought over with him, and carefully inked with his precious, precious fountain pen. He was going to miss that when the ink was gone. He'd even made an envelope carefully folded out of a bit of paper.

Rupert Giles requests the presence of Alcuin Delaunay for an evening of entertainments. Today, just past sunset, on the western beach.

Refreshments will be provided.

Yes, it was silly, but at least it made it feel more like a proper courting and less like he was making do.

He'd spread out a blanket, and made a fire nearby, and brought the last of his scotch and a bit of a British meal -- which is to say he made do.

He leaned back on his hands and waited for Alcuin to arrive.
