[The smell of the warming scone mixes with the fresh coffee. It is eventually pushed over with little containers of blueberry jam and cream, coffee set next to them.
Cade leans his hip against the counter and brushes off his hands.]
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. ]
[ 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?
Okay so just to be sure so that it's not like oh stars this is awkward you meant just like one thing and I meant another and we both need to move to other dimensions or something.

So how ya been? Business good?
Re: Red (val)
[ 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.
Re: Red (val)
Man... that's like, second hit you've taken this year aint it? Glad t'see you out an' about. I miss the mornin' convos without ya.
Re: Red (val)
... Mm. I prefer mornings talking to you, too.
Re: Red (val)
Honestly, don't even need to buy nothing....
Re: Red (val)
Oh-- no, I couldn't possibly. Aside from taking up space without being a paying customer, you make my favorite coffee anyway...
Re: Red (val)
Well, can't argue against THAT reasoning.

Re: Red (val)
I mean, the coffee IS pretty hot.

[ her wings are almost entirely covering her face. At this point. ]
Re: Red (val)
Re: Red (val)
Mm... I do prefer it in the mornings.
Re: Red (val)
[SHE'S FUCKING ADORABLE how does he even HANDLE this.
By getting her napkin. For her de-sconing.]

Re: Red (val)
Ah fuck it. Why not.]
Oh! I mean... ... If you'd wanna.. I get off work around 8. There's a nice place down on Main...
Re: Red (val)
That so? So... a long night, first?
Re: Red (val)
Re: Red (val)
[ sips her coffee, watching him over the edge of the mug with an amused eye.
He's almost certainly reading this right. Probably. ]
Re: Red (val)
Re: Red (val)
I'd love to keep you company tonight, if you'll have me.
... You're very sweet.

Date, date, right?
Re: Red (val)
Yes. With hopefully a little bit more...?
