The One, The Only

Though many students might prefer going to London, Maldon provides closer amenities for those without a car or unwilling to pay for a cab. Several pubs are available, though the Rose and Crown is notable for having been where Excalibur spent a good deal of their downtime. Also of note is the Plume Library, home to many rare books.

The One, The Only

After rounding up the others, Tereza drove the pack down to El Guaca, Maldon's only Mexican restaurant. She parked the car and got out. "Choices are slim, but Viv wanted nachos, so we're here."

They get a few odd looks from the staff, but are shown to a table easily enough. After requesting several cheese dips, to the surprise of the wait person, Tereza settles back on her side of the booth comfortably.

After the first odd look, Will made sure to sit in the back corner of the booth, fumbling around a little awkwardly with the menu and condiment bottles and trying to ignore as many people looking in their general direction as he could.

"I've got a loose tongue today," Will smiled, sheepishly. "I keep saying things I don't mean to say; things I normally would be too embarrassed to utter out loud.

Maybe I just need to shove some food or something in there so nothing squirms out."

Might have a little more space for it now that I tidied up your room while I was waiting for Tereza to track Viv down," he added, after a moment.

"I didn't get rid of anything. I picked up Tereza's bath stuff she left behind, and consolidated dirty clothes and things. Tidied up the bedsheets, de-hair-ifyed things.


I owe you three all more than I can repay; it makes me feel a little less neurotic to help out in some way," he added, after a moment.
