Business slowed down enough that I could take a few weeks off. Thought I may as well get out of town, try to get lost in someplace new. Meet the people, see the sights. Try the cuisine. That kinda thing. Feels like ages since I've been out this way. [She finally curls a hand around her beer, tapping a dark fingernail against the glass.] Doesn't seem like the city's changed much.

[Her eyes finally flick away from Barry to briefly drag across the other bar patrons. When she reaches Barry's gaze again, she huffs out a laugh and rolls her eyes.] People haven't changed much either.

But your face is new to me. Been in town long?
