I’ll bring something special for us to blind next study group
I was going to suggest we meet more often anyway – we’ll never be ready to sit this bastard exam in August if we don’t knuckle down – but now we definitely should so we can get you ready to take the Young Aus Somm title home!
I’ll ask my boss if you can stage if you want to practise service
SATOSHI
That’d be great, although Mondays are my only night off atm
Speaking of – you’re both welcome to stage at Tsundoku whenever you want. I could use the cover

CONGRATULATIONS!!
SATOSHI
Thank you
It doesn’t mean much outside the industry, but in my world it’s a pretty big deal
Well, a reasonably sized deal
To a limited group of people
FIONA
Translation: it’s an *enormous* deal
I’m so thrilled for you!
And so proud of you
And I plan on demonstrating that at great length next time I get you alone
SATOSHI
Can’t wait x
Literally, I can’t wait – any chance you could come in before Thursday?
FIONA
You will definitely see me before Thursday, but not for the reasons you’re hoping
I promised Lex I’d bring them by tomorrow afternoon
Matt’s first formal visitation is in the morning, and Lex is Not Thrilled
