To stop his hands from getting restless, as they sometimes did with nothing particular to do, he folded them on the table before him. "I've been a couple of times, but not for the Blues Night. The drinks are good, the bands are an interesting mix - some better than others, but more often than not they're pretty good. And most people go to watch the bands, so there's not much dancing or jostling around. It's actually pretty nice and respectful, if a little loud at times."
A small tray approached their table, having been levitated by the waitress. Ernie took his tea from it and gave the woman a smile in thanks. "If you ever want to go, I'd be happy to go with you. It could be fun." He bit his bottom lip, hoping he wasn't going too far in assuming Theodore would be fine with another meeting, whether or not it was a 'date'.
