Daggum looked at her and smiled and laughed. “I didn’t know what happened, but that look was something!” and he laughed a bit more, but stopped (mostly) when one server arrived and cleared and another set the entrées down. The Beef tips both had ordered smelled amazing, and bottle of (none dissappearing) water was set between them.

“Later. Still processing,” she said with a final chuckle and a sigh.

Daggum looked at Faye and said “Ok, let’s get this settled. Beef… what temp do you like it cooked and why is well-done wrong?” and he grinned.

She shuddered. “Rare to medium-rare, though I prefer mine towards medium-rare. Well seared crust and nicely pink in the middle. . Well-done is just a waste of meat and given that I grew up having to hunt or trap our meat, I’m very particular about not wasting any food.” Faye learned towards him with a mischievous look on her face. “Do I get to stay at the table?”

Daggum matched her lean and grinned. “Oh, you do indeed. So now its your turn… ask away. Anything, my love. What do you want to know?”

Daggum

For a moment it was easy to think he was still playing, and she was all for it, but his question seemed to be deeper. As Faye stabbed one of the tender tips with the tines of her fork (making sure to grab a mushroom), she was thoughtful. In fact she popped the bite into her mouth and chewed, sighing with happiness at the beautiful food. This place was something special and she never would have thought to come here on her own. After swallowing, she gazed at Daggum. “When you think of the future, what do you envision. What does it look like. And I’m nt talking about us specifically, just in general. What is it that you want?”

~Faye Calloway

Daggum arched an eyebrow and nodded in appreciation of the… intensity… of the question. He leaned back, took a bite of food and chewed thoughtfully. His eyes never left hers. A serious question deserved serious consideration.

Taking a drink, he said “I’m gonna need you to be more specific. Do you mean just me? And how far in the future? And can I include us in it as well? Or will that be too much for a first date?” and he smiled and gave her a wink.
