Ixion (Pirithous) smiled while looking at Joe.
"Where should I start…"
Resting his elbows on the table, Ixion leaned forward.
"When I met her, it was the same day we came to this tavern. I hadn't known who she was then or of her father."
Joleen, who was delivering Joe's water, shouted:
"For real?! That looked like a second or third date, not a first. Especially not with that chemistry!"
Just as quickly as she appeared, Joleen turned and skipped away toward the kitchen.
David shouted:
"Piri?! That was your first date with her?! Why the hell did you talk about the darn King!"
'So, they were doing a little more than watching.'
They'd also been eavesdropping.
Joe slapped his hand over Dave's lips.
"Sorry about David here, he has really good ears and can't help but listen. Nor does he know when to keep quiet."
Joe laughed, then looked Dave in the eyes and said:
"One more outburst and no ale for a week."
