Thank you. Things are pretty good. I've been in a bit of a rut lately... I was ill ask last week.

[ cups the coffee between her hands with a hum, just taking in its warmth and the smells. ]

I'm sure your shop will pick up quickly enough... it's a bit odd for it to be totally empty even at this hour.

[ blinks at him, flustered-- then ducks her head, her wings coming up to half- cover her cheeks. ]

... Mm. I prefer mornings talking to you, too.

[ here we potentially demonstrate how she got the name "red". those wings somehow fluff up more. ]

Oh-- no, I couldn't possibly. Aside from taking up space without being a paying customer, you make my favorite coffee anyway...

[ why am I so easy ]

R-right. And-- well it isn't as if you need the business from just me buying a coffee but I wouldn't want to deny you that when I like coming by to see you so much anyway-- er. The shop, I mean. The coffee. You know.

[ he can't possibly be doing this on purpose. She breaks a corner off her scone, but seems more interested in breaking it down into crumbs than actually eating it due to The Embarrassment, looking away from him a bit. ]

Mm... I do prefer it in the mornings.
vitainmorte: (Be done with this now and)

[ ah. stops once he does that, face red, and just. puts it in her mouth instead, licking the crumbs off her fingers and using the napkin to sweep the rest back onto the plate.

.... god I hope he isn't still married or else this will be awkward but. ruffling her feathers and sitting up a little straighter, but focused on her scone again. Be cool, be cool. Face with this massive really hot dude. Is anyone as big as this guy. ]

Well-- not to seem too presumptuous but if you'd like to... start the day right, sometime... Together?

[ she brightens, looking back up at him again. So he can blush too, huh? God he's cute. ]

That so? So... a long night, first?

Mhm. But I don't need it for something like that.

[ sips her coffee, watching him over the edge of the mug with an amused eye.

He's almost certainly reading this right. Probably. ]

[ her wings are fluffed up against her cheeks again but at least she isn't hiding her face, looking thoroughly pleased up at him. ]

I'd love to keep you company tonight, if you'll have me.

... You're very sweet.

[ a small laugh. ]

Yes. With hopefully a little bit more...?
