Who: Abigail Roth, Julian Ross
When: Saturday morning, 6/12
Where: A diner in New Haven, Connecticut
What: Fate (and, okay, some serious Force-sensing) bring former Master and Padawan together. It just turns out that the roles are the opposite of what Julian had been claiming on the journals.
Rating: Honestly? Probably PG at worst, unless one of them discovers a previously unknown penchant for swearing.
It was as if 500 employees had cried out for flexible work schedules and had been suddenly silenced.
The shiny black Cadillac Escalade had rolled into town early on Saturday morning - sadly without theme music - and parked outside the small Martha May facility in New Haven around nine. Yes, the fortunate son was delivering bad news on a weekend. Crisp white suit and bright smile aside, Mr. Ross was a crusher of dreams. So much for the hope of an 8 - 6:30 with Fridays off. Goodbye, images of a 7 - 4 workday and picking the children up after school. Sorry, folks, but the answer is a categorical 'no.' Y'all understand. Just wouldn't be fair to the other facilities who can't flex their hours because of the nature of their work.
After wasting an hour of his staff's Saturday morning on bad news, Julian climbed back into his car, left the packing plant, and went on a hunt for some decent food. When he finally located a diner, he pulled his massive vehicle into the lot and went inside, where he found that he was the only customer in a suit. Well, alright. He took a booth, flipped open the menu, and quickly found that there were very few obvious vegetarian options. Sure, the place had egg plates. He wasn't a vegan, eggs were okay... but would they clean the griddle of bacon grease before cooking the eggs? He was just resolving to ask the waitress when she came back with his coffee when he felt -- something. Something familiar; he could tell that the old man in his skull recognized it immediately, but Obi-Wan wasn't talking. This wasn't unusual when he felt that Julian would abuse the information if he knew. Interesting. Most interesting.
