“Um... How about not?” Don replied with a smile, shaking his head. He definitely wasn’t going to open that can of worms as he had a feeling that it could go awkward very, very quickly. He was quite content just chatting with Orsino and keeping things light despite the bit of tension earlier about Penny and Meghan.
“Yes, desserts!” he crowed, happily taking the menu from his friend. There was nothing like a good dessert after a good meal and if they were both going to order something and share then that made it all the more better in his opinion. And depending on how good things were here then he might have to bring Elizabeth here someday and see what she thought. She did like it when he took her out places, even if it was as simple as a little restaurant like this.
When the conversation shifted to him though he just blinked at Orsino before snorting. “You want to know about what I’ve been doing? I would have thought that obvious from my entries.” He was, of course, teasing. Most of the time he wrote an entry when Elizabeth was upset with him, but he realized that probably made people think that they did nothing but fight. He certainly didn’t want people getting that sort of impression about the two of them.
“I know that Elizabeth and I have been married for going on two and a half years, but it is still kind of surreal, you know? And nowadays it seems as though my life revolves strictly around you guys and her and that there really isn’t anyone else.” And that made it easy for him to forget about the fact that they had fans and people who expected to see and hear from them now and again. “Though fair warning... If Elizabeth gets word of Penny she just might want to send her an owl no matter how casual and have some sort of girly get together to talk about us.”
