Richard + Ben + Open

Shaking his head in amusement at the affectionate greeting, Rich took advantage of his almost six inch height advantage to pat Ben paternally on top of his head. "Well look at the birthday boy. Almost all grown up."

"It was a perilous journey through mountains of paperwork, but of course I made it. Now that I'm based in London again, I hope to make more of these things."

He lifted his glass to his friend. "Bourbon. Cheers and many more, young fellow."

Ben didn't mind the head pat, and in fact enjoyed having his head scratched and rubbed. So he just grinned and enjoyed it. "I'm still older than you, Summerby." Twenty-seven, a groaning voice said in his head, but he ignored it.

Ben's nose scrunched up at the thought of paperwork. "I was an office aide for a few weeks several years ago. Only job I'd never go back to. I don't know how you can stand so much paperwork all the time." Ben needed to be moving for most of the day. He and paperwork did not agree.

Bourbon was not Ben's drink of choice. He preferred colorful, fruity drinks that would knock you on your ass while tasting delicious. He ordered such a thing, and several others for the rest, and when it came he held it up to Richard. "Thanks. Come and join the group? I think we're over there." He waved absently in the direction of the back of the club.

Richard chuckled and held a finger to his lips. "Shhh. September thirtieth. I was in Hong Kong so I never said anything. Got you by a couple of weeks. Never much for birthday celebrations - my own anyway - so don't mention it. Rather not have a fuss."

"The pay, son. Only the pay. Truth be told," he shrugged, "I'm thinking seriously about hiring an office minion to deal with all that stuff. I swear we could heat the hole building all winter with the paperwork we generate in a week. You run across anybody looking for that sort of gig - who might actually be good at the job - send them my way. Long hours, workaholic boss, piles of galleons."

Rich tossed down the rest of his drink, grabbed the new one, and nodded to Ben. Sounds like a plan. Lead the way and protect me from all the manic huggers."
