The smile is irreverent and arrogant, maybe just this side of shamelessly victorious. Especially if she can't remember it to compare any more than him, and is in a swirl of the memories he is. When he's got the retort about if she can't remember, then doesn't count yet. Because there's no actual proof she's right and he's not, especially because the whole point never was tables.
Except when it was.
When he can do good enough to simply leave it at a smile, with the waitress dropping off a plate before turning to him expectantly. Flipping pages back toward the beginning and pointing to the picture as he said, "A Longboard and the Shrimp Ono Nui."
Before sitting back in his chair, and stretching his shoulders back and in, along with the muscles in along his spine since it pushes in his shoulder blades. Before he settles, against the chair a little more easily, if not rough or solid. "How's Pearl?"
And how was being on land, what was it, almost three weeks now? With the circulation of the decommission without any word of being commissioned elsewhere in sight yet. Plus. There were only so many topics that could or maybe, especially, should be covered, elsewise, and if they were going through, why not just keep pushing through then, right?
