The bar Dale's working in is in the heart of Boystown- the gay district in Chicago. He's not far from the door, watching- and when he spies Chip, he heads for him promptly, smiling. "Hey man." It's still fairly quiet in the bar, at this hour- but it may be the first Chip's seen of the inside of a gay bar. "How's it going?"

He saw the inside of a gay bar. Once. He didn't know that was what it was when he walked in. He didn't figure it out until after his first beer... and getting his ass pinched. Yeah, he's never telling Dale that story.

Grinning, looking a little shy and a lot nervous. Did getting blown by his best friend change things between them? Did it make this actually a date?

"Not bad. Carrie called today.' Said casually, watching Dale to see his reaction.

Dale nods at that- the smile fading quickly. "How'd that go?" he asks, heading towards the bar- and asking "And what d'you want to drink, Chip?" he's got a beer himself, with a slice of lemon on the edge.

"Just a beer. Something I don't got to chew to drink,' he adds, making a face. Quiet a bit before answering.

"She wanted to hook up this weekend. Seems her little problem with my movie watching went to the wayside when her ex wouldn't take her back." He paused again before adding. "I told her I had plans."

Dale sheepishly smiles, setting his beer down on the counter- and ducking under. "Well then, uhm..." he goes to pour a pint of the sort of beer he knows Chip prefers. "...but you decided to go out with me instead?"
