@newstm sent "do you drink coffee or tea?"
while far from his least favorite place in hatchetfield , solomon still has a deep disdain for whenever he has to make a stop at the news station. it reminds him of all the quote unquote emergencies he's had to deal with , only for them to be forgotten days later. almost as though they never were. funny , how that seemed to happen. funnier , that it almost always aligned with his election campaigns. this time , however , he is here of his own accord. usually , he makes dan do the trip to town hall , or they meet for coffee at beanies if it's a slow enough news week. but since he was in the neighborhood already , solomon made the unfortunate decision to stop by his employee's place of work , instead. alas , this just doesn't seem to be his week. and instead of the news anchor he wants to see , he's greeted by the grating chiperness of his co-anchor.
" coffee. black , " and usually with a little hit of bourbon , though no one but miss tessburger is the wiser to that little habit. solomon sits in the lobby , like a common shmuck -- though he only has himself to blame. he doesn't bother with a please nor a thank you. a muscle in his jaw pulses , and he takes a deep breath. don't punish the poor woman. she may take it personally come next election. he settles on business as a safe , and possibly productive topic of conversation. as he waits for his coffee." so how is the... news looking this week. anything i should be aware of ?
