She'd caught wind of a pop-up nearby for Mexican-Korean fusion food and the rookie officer was the first person to come to mind.
If she was being honest, Emily was mildly pleased by the development. It was out of her comfort zone, but she'd been doing a lot of that lately, so the prospect was exciting.

Maybe next, she'd try something wild like buying a plane ticket to anywhere. Take actual flying lessons... She could use that with her broom.
The whole thought process had Emily smiling to herself. She caught sight of Watts perched on the concrete barrier, and lifted a hand to give her a short wave as she descended the front steps.
“Watts,” she greeted amiably as she approached, one thumb hooked under her purse strap where it was slung over her shoulder. “How's it going?”
