[If pressed, Charlie'd admit that they've needed another set of hands for a while; business has been surprisingly brisk. Not that he has an obligation to be pleased about it. Whether Chloe's vetted the newbie or not, there's likely still to be a lot of babysitting involved. Three guesses as to who'll be responsible for it (and the first two don't count).
So maybe he's not in the best mood to start with when he shoulders in past the lugs crowding the door. It takes no more than a quick skim of the dive to lay eyes on Chloe and-- Christ, just look at that Tom Selleck impersonator. By the time Charlie pulls a chair out for himself, he's wearing the edge of a grin.]
Where'd you dig this one up? [Because she can't be serious.]
