≈ the labyrinth. with @ashvvilliams
Truthfully, Phoebe hadn't put a lot of effort in with Foster's friends the way he had with hers. She wished she could say it wasn't for a lack of trying, but honestly, Phoebe hadn't tried. She had seen the flyers for Theo's equestrian centre, had been meaning to go visit and smooth over their last encounter, but kept stopping herself. Maybe it was because she hadn't seen Theo and Foster in the context of interacting with each other, not sure how their dynamic played out and if Phoebe would be more the fool for befriending the other woman if her intentions with the chef were more than friendly.
Ash, however, was a different story. They seemed quiet, not unlike Foster, but overall nice, even if the few times they've interacted consisted with him in the middle, them on one side minding their business, and Phoebe on the other, yapping away and eventually letting the two of them do their own thing, like back during Summerween when it was clear the news intern was more into it than Ash or Foster. But there hadn't been too much one-on-one time between them, and Phoebe decided to remedy it.
The Labyrinth wasn't usually somewhere she ventured out to, but she needed a change of scenery from O'Shea's. And this bar was a much more relaxing, quiet environment she hoped Ash would appreciate. "Hey! Thanks for meeting me!" She greeted when she spotted them walk through the door, standing up and waving them over. "I, uh, was gonna order you something but I didn't know what you would have liked. They're all a bit...unconventional, here."
