Re: Cianán and Heidi
Looking down at her plate, which had a whole mix of food, prominently including bacon because if brunch food was an excuse for anything it was bacon. She gave him a slightly apologetic smile. "Yeah, I can understand how that might make you some friends. The menu tends to be pretty meat-heavy," she said. She cut up a neatly meat-free bite of waffle and ate it. "Shifters and weres tend towards being omnivores, I'm sure you realised. I know there are some who manage without meat, but it tends to be tricky with the need for high calorie intake," she said. If he had been offended she was sure he would have mentioned it before, but in this town it was hard to get away from big eaters.
With a quick look around at the rainbow surroundings Heidi smiled, and then looked back to Cianán. "At least today feels one step closer to that sort of thing being possible," she said, the warm feeling suffusing her chest as she breathed in. "I'd say you'll need to let me know how it's turning out in a while, but a while is probably far longer for you than me," she said, amused. "You know I don't remember having Lebanese," she admitted thoughtfully. "I'm not sure how far away they are, my geography of that part of the world isn't great." She shrugged without much apology. "Honestly though I fell in love with Koshary. You've got to respect a dish that involves three different types of carbs!" she joked. "Although, maybe you'd like it, it is generally vegetarian," she said. "Actually quite a lot of Egyptian food was, loads of pulses for protein and yoghurt," she said.
She snorted slightly. "People think it's poetic until we have to pull their walls or floors up to get at the problem," she said. Sometimes the issues were with exposed pipework, but she had definitely had issues where clients had complained about the necessary mess needed to fix their issues. She laughed delightedly at his random topic jump. "I mean, no need on my account, but I guess it depends how you're getting home." She was sure Bea or someone else would stop him driving after drinking, but if he hadn't got something lined up she wouldn't mind running him home as long as he didn't mind the work van.
