She gave him the quick pre-warning before ducking off to serve another couple of patrons, but again she returned to him once her duties were done - officially in case he wanted anything, of course, but unofficially because she liked the challenge of trying to have a conversation with someone who really would rather not be bothered. "You staying within walking distance? Or taking a cab? I can call you one if you want it whenever you're ready. Buses stopped running forty-five minutes ago." She figured he could take care of himself either way, but didn't mind at least offering to be helpful. -- RD Present: The Boardwalk
