The Boardwalk, Sunday Afternoon

For a person who spent a lot of her time nearby at the docks, Octavia didn't tend to visit the boardwalk much. Not when it wasn't just barely dawn and she was walking along it as part of her usual daily patrol before anyone else was even awake, and there was no one else there, anyway.

But this afternoon, she was there, taking in how it looked on a calm and quiet Sunday afternoon. No particular reason, and she was likely to end up at the Rouge later, but for now... There was something about the boardwalk that had called to her.

Maybe it was the snacks.

Because right this moment, she wasn't walking. She'd bought a funnel cake on a whim, and had stopped to stand by the railing overlooking the water to enjoy it. Or at least eat it. So far, she wasn't very impressed with it.

But like with so many things lately, she was glad she was here to get to try it.

Having someone around to encourage that sort of thing really helped. It just so happened that Liam found his person a little earlier than Octavia had.

"Glad to hear it."

"All of the above."

Obviously.

"Maybe not if it had been really good funnel cake." Which it had not been.

"I meant the part about stepping out of your comfort zone. While also being more comfortable with just being here," he said after a few moments of comfortable silence.
