Finn cleared the last of the dishes from the dinner rush and carted them into the kitchen for Tandy, laughing when she asked if he'd been demoted to busser.
That chore done, he headed back into the bar to do a walk around, checking with those in the game room and those at the tables and booths scattered around the bar area. He joked with a few of the regulars and greeted the faces he couldn't remember seeing before taking his position behind the bar again.
Leaning against the back counter, he surveyed his pub and couldn't help the smile that formed. For as much flak as he'd received from his family over his choosing such a small town when he finally struck out on his own, he really did love the town. The atmosphere was open, accepting, and the sheer fact that he could use his abilities without causing the National Enquirer to drop onto his head made it perfect.
He looked up when the door opened and called out a welcome to the newcomer.
"Welcome to the Pub."

"Thanks," Finn returned. "I've never once regretted my decision to set up here. Just something about this town, you know? Felt like home the first time I came here to scout locations."

"Nope, born and raised in South Boston, though I did live one excruciating summer in New York City. How about you?"
He was still new enough to not know the natives over the imports like himself, but it was getting a little easier. "And..sorry, drama? I think I missed the drama."

Riley lifts an eyebrow and can't help the smile that takes over her face. "You missed the drama? Oh don't worry, Finn, there will be plenty of drama for you to join in soon enough, I'm sure. Siren Cove is exciting, to put it nicely. For example, half of us went on a cruise last summer and ended up stranded on a deserted island."

"Now there's something you don't hear every day," Finn commented. "I mean, I remember hearing little about that when I was renovating this place, but to be honest, I didn't pay a lot of attention. I was too busy refinishing floors and painting for that. Were you one of the deserted or one of the left behind?"

"I'd say depending on where you go on vacation you'll get a lot of that, but deserted island would definitely add another aspect of fun on top of it," Finn replied with sarcasm so heavy it was practically dripping off his words.
