B1 - SUNDAY

Okay, well, he meant to make it simple. But then he got carried away, because that's who he is as a person. So here is Neal managing two coolers, one slightly smaller than the other. He has to set one down in order to knock on the door.

The coolers themselves contain tiny servings of about a dozen different dishes, from tiny seasoned steak slices of varying doneness to little onigiri stuffed with lightly salted salmon. If it's stupidly elaborate, feel free to assume there is some dressed-down (read: locally available) version available in miniature.

The other cooler has small bottles of cheap wine and those little paper cups that barely hold a mouthful. He sets the wines with the foods that pair best.

Look this is who he is as a person, okay? At least he's dressed normally--turquoise sweater, close-cut jeans.

B1/A4/Passerby - FOLLOWING WEDNESDAY

Okay, so the tiny food was a bit much. Only God can judge him.

At least this time it's a plain old cook-out with a grill on the patio of A4. Yes, the grill items include salmon, chicken, and... tofu in several marinades including citrus-chipotle.

Only God can judge him.

There's also a spread of perfectly ordinary salad-shaped objects and tiny pickles et cetera inside on the kitchen counter.

"...naw, I think there's...reasons for it to just be you and me, one of these nights." She's not going to spell it out completely under current conditions. But like. There's capeshit to discuss, is there not? Malcolm doesn't ever need to know about The Dastard or The Meteor or any of the things Meredith might admit to Tim, in private.

Okay.

Not okay-okay, and Tim's sure his pause is enough to clue in Meredith that, yeah, there's things to discuss about them. About her. Her world, her knowledge, her involvement and investments.

And Tim can't get that out without an investment, himself. He's going to have to give, to get.

There's excitement, nauseating waves of it.

Tim fiddles with his fork.

He doesn't know why he says, "Yeah, sure. Whenever."

But he's not going to fudge this.

Tim returns to his meal before remembering he doesn't have a drink. He heads to the fridge and calls, "Hey, want some wine?"
henchgal: (yeah well)

"Naw, not tonight. Grab me a soda?"

It's not that she feels she needs to be perfectly sober in this crowd, it's just...look, not necessary tonight.
