Who: Alison Blaire and Jean-Paul Beaubier NPCs: Restaurant Patrons When: 03/12/2013 Where: Upscale Restaurant, NYC What: Alison and Jean-Paul meet up for lunch. Excitement ensues. Rating: PG
To be perfectly honest, Alison felt a bit exposed as she sat at the restaurant table, waiting for Jean-Paul. She had ventured out of her apartment a number of times since she began working on the album, but mostly it was to run to one store or another. She had not gone out to a restaurant in months, and was a little bit hesitant at the thought of eating a full lunch; she had gotten very used to ordering out, after all.
Still, a part of her enjoying the fresh air and the movement of the city. The sounds surrounding her actually put her a bit at ease, as she knew it would be easy to manipulate any of it into light if she truly needed. She watched as the waiters and waitresses walked to and fro, carrying orders and drinks as they helped the other patrons. Even the clatter of dishes on trays was a sound she enjoyed.
New York City was a symphony of different sounds, each unique and wonderful in their own way. Ali would always love the city for that.
Taking a small sip of water, Alison pulled out her phone and sent a short text off to Lois while she waited. She did have a number of things she wanted to finish today and why not reminder herself of them before her lunch?
