Summery: Mr Lucas meets a friend in a club
Authors Note: Spoilers for the episode Sit Out
Authors note 2: The link to my little damn table is here:
link He sat in the nightclub enjoying a peaceful drink. This was something he liked to do after a hard day at work. It was something a lot of people liked to do, just that he normally didn’t meet anyone he knew there. Mind you his life was anything but normal.
“Come here often do you?” A teasing voice asked as he jumped and looked up at the voice.
“Yeah, but I know you don’t” He retorted taking another sip of his drink. It had been a while since he had last seen him, possibly even his last day of work if he remembered correctly, “so what are you doing here Mr Humphries?”
“Mr Lucas, we don’t work for each other any more so why don’t you just call me by my first name”
“Nope, because then you’ll have to call me by mine and I refuse to let that happen again. The staff where not meant to know each other socially for a reason if you remember Mr Humphries”
“Then why are we talking to each other now?” Mr Humphries asked him with a smirk.
“No idea really, you came up to me and started talking”
“Good point”
“So what’s everyone been up to?” he questioned.
“Well…” Mr Humphries looked unsure as to where to start, “I did end up as Floorwalker for a bit the other week” His eyes widened.
“Really? How did Peacock take that?”
“Do I really have to tell you, Mr Lucas?” Mr Humphries asked with his eyes twinkling with laughter.
“So how did that come about then?”
“Well you know how we had the bad weather that week?” He nodded remembering, “Well old jug ears decided that it was our fault we had the poor sales when it was really the cold. So we did a ‘sales course’ causing us to start fighting. Basically after that we ended up doing a sit in and long story short we got rescued by a fire man”
“How did you enjoy being floorwalker?”
“It was boring to be honest wasn’t all that exciting I can see why Peacock bombards all the customers when they come in” Mr Humphries said with a laugh and then looked at his watch.
“Bilmy I better go otherwise my mothers going to call the cops or something” He laughed.
“Guess I’ll see you again at some point” He said with a smile.
“Guess you will”

Summery: The staff play a little game after closing hours
“Alright Mr Lucas take it off” He smirked. He didn’t know who had started the game all he knew was that he hadn’t wanted to join in originally until Captain Peacock finally said this was a staff game and everyone was expected to join in.
That was when Mr Lucas offered to go and call Young Mr Grace to invite him down to join in and everyone said no straight away. That was when he had finally allowed himself to join - thankfully he was winning and hadn’t had to take any clothes off so far.
He couldn’t say the same for the others. He looked up from his cards to listen to Miss Brahms and Mr Lucas argue and he couldn’t help but laugh.
“What do I have left to take off?” Mr Lucas asked angrily. He was sitting nearly completely naked apart from his y-fronts and his socks, “shut up Mr Humphries”
“Mr Lucas! You do not speak to your senior like that”
“It’s outside store hours” Mr Lucas pointed out and he couldn’t help but nod in support.
“Just take off your socks and we can continue” Captain Peacock finally stated. He couldn’t help but hide a smirk that didn’t go un-noticed.
“Alright Mr Humphries what have you got?” Mrs Slocombe said with a shiver. Thankfully he had only seen bits that he had wanted to see from her.
“Straight, in spades” He said laying down his cards with a wicked grin.
“That’s not like you Mr Humphries.” Mr Lucas commented.
“For once though I’m glad that it’s a straight” He retorted back. He started to lean back when Miss Brahms waved her finger at him.
“Not so fast Mr Humphries” He looked at her in shock. Nobody could beat him. He was supposed to be safe, he was supposed to win. She put her cards in front of her.
“A royal flush.” His eyes widened. There was no way. He couldn’t.
“No”
“Oh yes and personally I think your pants should be the thing taken off.” His eyes widened at the nods around him.
“But…”
“You know the rules Mr Humphries” Captain Peacock said with a smirk.
“Oh alright then, but if my mother hears about this…”
“She won’t” Mrs Slocombe said with a small grin as he sighed and finally gave in. As he took of his pants Mr Lucas started humming the pink panther theme song and he glared at him.
“I shan’t continue if your going to mock me Mr Lucas” Mr Lucas just smiled and so the game continued. Making a memorable night for the whole staff.
