We might need both hands, if you're up for a bit of cooking. I was thinking breakfast, actually - decidedly not fancy, don't worry.
John is- he fucking adores detective stories, it's utterly ridiculous. [But the bright warmth in his voice definitely sounds charmed by it.] I figure we give him a greasy fucking diner breakfast, tell him a few stories about our jobs. Give him a real taste of the life for a minute.
I think he'd love it, frankly. What about the, uhm...
[Well he was about to say Enclosure but then he remembered he's talking to Charlie fucking Dowd, and that maybe making a whole-ass city just to sit in an empty diner with part of the King might not make it as fun for him. Which John would pick up on, so...]
...what about my room? I don't really use it, we can turn it into a diner.
[ Yeahhhh there's a good reason Charlie didn't suggest the Enclosure. If it was his first week he'd feel the same way about quick-changing a cabin, but he's come around to the idea that that's different. Somehow.
Please ignore the fact that his own cabin nevertheless still has the default skin setting. ]
More or less. You've seen his lounge room, right? The whole thing's practically one giant bed.
[Easier to play to the bit, rather than admit he sleeps in John's bed.]
Still, I'd need a warden to make the request to change my room. And I don't believe inmates get kitchens, John's last one had to use his - so we'd need to either kick John out of his room and use his, or maybe use yours.

Blue plate special and jaw, huh? You think he'd like that?
Maybe we ask the boss for some diner furniture too, make it look the part.

You don't? What, you sleepin' on John's couch?
