[Gaius]

Admittedly, this isn't what she had expected, but some work hours are worth this. She has her feet propped up on a chair and has been watching Gaius tend to her tables for the last few hours. She hasn't determined yet what she wants to spend the rest of the day doing, but after everything -- and everything he's found out about her -- she likes this small little sliver of normalcy.

It's almost like she's back with Charley. Almost.

"You missed a table," she helpfully points out, popping slices of mango past her lips as she gestures to a table that has yet to be bussed.

[Katniss]

With Cromartie moved to her place, Sarah needs to dig another hole. She's got a shovel, but it's taking longer than it should. This goes faster when you have three people to help and one of those people isn't a person at all, but a machine who doesn't need to sleep. She's feeling a shade of sick again and lilts slightly as she buries the shovel in the sand, swaying and trying to find some stability again.

Cromartie's broken face peers out from the dirt at her and she lodges the shovel loose enough for just a moment to spill sand over him, until his eyes can't see a single thing.

She grips the handle of the shovel just a little tighter. "Damn it," she mutters, aware she should take a break, but too stubborn to just stop.
