Town Meeting

John awoke at his usual early hour on the morning of the town meeting. He dressed with slightly more than usual care in his suit of clothes from home, broke his fast with a light meal, and headed to the Golden Horseshoe to ensure that things were the way he wanted.

The chairs and small tables were already perfectly arranged, but John dragged a podium he found backstage out to the front of the curtain. Then he bustled about in the kitchen area setting out drinks and whatever small snacks he could find back there.

Before long, interested citizens began filing in and he went up to the podium. There was no microphone because he'd never heard of such a thing, but John Adams never had difficulty making himself heard.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome. If you would please pick up any refreshments you'd care for and take your seats, we'll begin in just a few minutes."

"I seriously doubt it," Logan said in a low voice. "I seriously doubt he realizes shit about what's going on around here. But what can you expect?"

He turns to smile at Rose, and this smile's a little more intense and intimate than he's given her before. "If you wanna share war stories, we could meet up later."

Kon snorted softly, "Yet another clueless cop? Yeah, nothing new." Then he tipped his head to the side a little. "Those going to be the kind of war stories that make me insanely glad I don't have parents?"

"Ugh, I've seen wars more organized." She shrugged, and then returned Logan's smile with an edgy, toothy one of her own. "Maybe we should."

She looked at Kon, and then patted his shoulder. "Probably."
