Clark Walked into the Bar and Grill tired as normal.
No room for drinking while on duty. But the Arleigh Burke had just returned to Manhattan after 5 no stop back and fourths from Bretonia. Luckily nothing nasty occurred. the slight detour was working. A minute delay but worth it in saving lives. The trade lane to and from the New York Jump Gate to Riverside station was always under fire from pirates and a naval transport well that could never end well with pirates. it still added about an hour onto the trip. Clark ordered two racks of Houston style Barbeque ribs and a large soda. Clark walked over and sat in the Officer's Lounge. As soon as sat down the form fitting form reshaped to Clark's body shape and massaged his back. it was wondrous. then came his food. it smelt delicious.
Foods good
Chairs good
Clark was good.
Everything for that half an hour of relaxation and eating meat. a simple joy however things were interrupted by Clark's Pocket Tablet. He pulled it out. slightly grumpy.
