"Well, Roxy's allergic to eggs, so the breakfast for dinner place that we like is out." Devika said musingly.
Tim nodded but didn't say anything, waiting for one of them to choose.
"Oh, I know. Roxy, have you ever been to a churrascaria? It's a place where they serve all different kinds of meat and sides. It's very casual and the portions are huge. Plus, everything is delicious. We have one in the neighborhood. That's where I want to go."
"That decides that, then." He nodded, then looked down at himself, still in his work suit. "I should change."
"You should change." Mara murmured, giving him a friendly swat as he passed by.

Devika snickered faintly, shaking her head. "Roxy, I'm sorry that they're so..." She gestured in the air for a word and came up empty. "Them."
