Late-Night Drinking! (For John)
Who: Stephanie Shaw, John When: Later in the night, after John finds Jamie. 3:30-ish. Where: Chow's Diner, and probably a bar shortly. What: Steph and John hang out, eat, drink and suchlike.
Stephanie had recieved a phone call from John at around three in the morning, to come out and join him for a drink. He seemed a little disturbed over the phone, though Stephanie didn't press then. She figured if he wanted to talk about it, he would when she got there. As for her, well, she typically went for around twenty-four hours without sleeping anyway, so it wasn't like he woke her up or anything. In fact, sometimes she had to remember that most people were not like herself or her father and that doing business in the wee hours of the morning was, indeed, unacceptable to most.
She found herself a little surprised at how easily she went over to his place afterwards. It was true that they had something of a special arrangement on the battlefield, but she'd never really given it a lot of thought otherwise. They were friends of a sort, though, and got along just fine. And it just so happened that she was kind of wanting to get out of the house herself. So out she'd gone, taking a taxi cub, because she didn't really want to wake up her driver and driving herself would be foolish considering that she was going drinking.
Around half an hour after he first called, Stephanie walked into the doors of Chow's diner and sat down, waiting for John to arrive.
