Slaughtered Lamb, evening, anyone? OTA/MW
The Lamb was never exactly quiet but Wednesday was one of its slightly less busy nights and there were a few free tables and the dartboard was free.

Charlie came in and looked around, waved to Molly and headed for the bar. "Hello sweetheart," he said. "Happy thhhhhhinko da mayo. Guiness please. Ah - and one for my friend here. What're you having?"

"Nine years last month," Charlie said. "The Manor's been good to me. When I first came about the only people I'd speak to were Jason and Elspeth and Rosa in the laundry - you know Rosa, the one with the bosom - and Frank and Mary-Ann. And the boss, of course. He used to invite me to tea about once a month." He smiled, thinking back to his own desperately broken innocence. "I used to be on my best behaviour."

	Charlie nodded. "Yes, I'm still staff - I mend the old bits that we mustn't replace with new and am a rep for the TA. And Deacon's still in charge of the Manor's IT system. The Manor's a good place to work and Mr Vision ..." Charlie's voice tailed off for a moment, "is firm but fair - mostly." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Niles looked at Charlie. He knew. He had to know, right? Niles wasn't sure what Mr. Vision's standard practices were, but if Charlie had worked for him for nine years, he surely knew by now. With this little reassurance, Niles continued on. "He asked me to work for him. Because of El." (Reply to this) (Parent)
