Annabel Lee Tavern, Baltimore, Maryland, Thursday Evening

[mustbeawitch]

Lydia couldn't really have said why she'd selected the Annabel Lee Tavern for this week's Supper Club. It wasn't a type of cuisine they hadn't tried before, or anything like that, but something about it felt...appropriate.

Look, you couldn't not honor Poe in Baltimore at the height of spooky season. It would just be wrong.

Welcome to Supper Club, everyone! Ravens are not on the menu!

"You did well with the snorkeling though," she said, though she'd say that as long as he didn't drown.

Henry, whose feet had left the ground exactly once during that whole debacle and who had regretted every second of it, shrugged. "Didn't feel natural, did it? Sucking air down through a straw."

"Oh, absolutely not natural," Rey agreed. "And plastic tastes horrible."

"And there's so much going on beneath the water," Henry agreed. "I think I saw a fish tryin' to eat my toes, actually."

Re: Arrive and Mingle

"I do doubt it was actually trying to eat your feet."

Maybe just the dead skin off of them!

"But Flint said there were sharks in there."

Henry, it had to be said, still had no idea what a shark was.

"You would definitely know if a shark wanted your toes," she told him.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

"How big is a shark?" Henry asked. "I know it's supposed to have--" He formed a little cone with his hands-- "On his head or something..."

Poor Steve M and his failed attempt to communicate the concept of a shark to Henry without words back in summer.

"I think they're different sizes but the one in the movie is bigger than me."

Cool cool, definitely turn him on to the meta for Jaws.
