Fairmont Le Château Frontenac, Québec City, Québec [Friday Evening]

A few clouds moved in as the sun set and the temperature dropped, but it was still decent weather for your last night here in Quebec!

"We didn't even get to try all the options," Steven said. "I suppose that can be a goal if we ever come back."
pocketpretzels: (pardon?)

Watts nodded. "I could see myself doing so. Coming back, that is."

"You've enjoyed it that much?" Steven asked. "I've found it very nice myself."

Watts nodded. "Perhaps not until we've ticked off a few more destinations on our list, but I think it would be worth returning."

"I like the sound of that," Steven said. "Further exploration at a later date."

Steven then looked around them, back at Llewellyn, then grinned. "For a later date."

"Clever," Watts shook his head. He couldn't even groan at that one.

Steven beamed proudly. "Thank you. This is nice though. They do plan a good holiday, don't they? All the activities. Almost as good as you are with things to do."
pocketpretzels: (i'm listening)

[personal profile] pocketpretzels 2024-10-26 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
"Almost?" Watts echoed.

"No one's better than you are," Steven said. "But it was a good job here all the same."
pocketpretzels: (puppy eyes)

Watts blushed, pleased with the compliment.

"It was- different- leaving the planning up to someone else," Watts admitted.

"Good or bad?" Steven asked. "I know you don't care for surprises."
pocketpretzels: (thinking)

Re: Dinner Cruise

[personal profile] pocketpretzels 2024-10-26 02:26 am (UTC)(link)
"I did still research," Watts admitted. Because, yes, not a fan of surprises. "But- overall I suppose it was good, having some of the work done arranging matters."

"No harm in research," Steven said. "Like knowing they have vegan options on this cruise. We'd have missed out otherwise."
pocketpretzels: (are you serious)

Re: Dinner Cruise

[personal profile] pocketpretzels 2024-10-26 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
"That took more work on the google than I expected," Watts said. "I don't understand why they could not just list it with the non-vegan menu."

"Lucky me I have a clever detective who can find such things," Steven said, looking at Llewellyn with obvious pride.

"Oh, well," and now Watts was blushing again, scratching at his chin.

"Excellent views of the sunset or not, I don't think this would have been worth it if we'd been stuck eating only a salad," Watts scoffed.

"And probably not a salad this nice either," Steven said, gesturing to the quinoa salad in front of them.
pocketpretzels: (i'm listening)

Re: Dinner Cruise

[personal profile] pocketpretzels 2024-10-26 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
"I don't know that I've had a salad quite this- fancy- before," Watts mused. Quinoa, yes, but elderflower syrup?

"Me neither," Steven said. "Suppose that's the fun of letting them pick. Try things you might not otherwise."

[personal profile] pocketpretzels 2024-10-26 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
"Agreed," Watts said. "I do enjoy trying new things. Particularly food." Contain your shock, Steven.

"And wine?" Steven guessed, gesturing to the bottle they were sharing.

[personal profile] pocketpretzels 2024-10-26 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
"And wine," Watts conceded.

The number of bottles of both regular and ice wine back in their hotel room backed that statement up.

"I think it tastes good?" Steven offered, checking to see if Llewellyn approved as well. It had come with the meal, so they were relying on the expertise of the people who put the dinner together.
