Brothers are such dicks - Marina, Percy, Giles

Marina didn't dress up to meet Percy at their usual haunt, always feeling like dolling up for a bar meant you were on the pull. Pulling was the last thing Marina was interested in, as usual. So in her white top and dark green trousers, she was one of the less revealing women as she entered the bar, stopping Percy quickly and lifting her hand in greeting as she wandered over.

"Hello, Rudolph," she said, slipping up onto the barstool next to him. "What are you drinking?"

Percy chewed on his lip for a moment and then he raised his eyebrows, "where? Maybe do a few nightclub gigs?" It sounded absolutely wonderful.

"I don't know," Marina admitted, "I was just thinking about how much I miss this-" a gestured toward the screen where blonde wife had drowned and everyone was upset "- and how much I loved working with you. I mean... it's a conflict of interest, I suppose, with Giles and you, but... wouldn't it be kind of great?"

"No, no, not a conflict of interest," Percy said, trying to ignore that Marina missed drowning apparently. "And I would love that. I actually would, it would be really fun to teach you everything."

"Oh my god, okay, we have to actually do this! Not just talk about it, really do it together." The idea was thrilling to Marina and she sort of wanted to go find some sort of water tank and do it right now, but maybe that was the drinks inside her.

"No, I agree," he said with a nod. "If we want to train you on our equipment though, we'll have to do it early in the morning."

"I could do that," Marina said, growing more and more into the idea of this happening. "I work some mornings, but there are others I work evenings. What would Giles do if he found out?"

"To be honest, I don't care. It's my equipment as much as it is his, I'd just prefer to avoid the awkwardness of running into him. I think you'd be really great at it, you know?"

"I think I would too," Marina said, already thinking ahead to it. "And I have always wanted to try it."

"Then we'll do it," Percy nodded. "When's your next day off?"
