[ Rokurou's likely not one of those people Natasha had in mind when she decided to check up on the Starstruck, but as fate would seem to have it, he is one of the people she'll run across while there. Or rather, Rokurou will come across her during a warm up jog around the ship. ]

Hey, visiting again?

[outstandingbalance]

[Considering he wasn't in her head during calibrations and she wasn't in his, Rokurou might be about the easiest person she might run into. She flashes him a smile.]

Well, it's been a while. Seemed like a good time to drop in.

[uwannagobro]

You think so? It feels more like people are real sensitive right now after all those illusions that happened earlier.

[ Rokurou's unfortunately too... Rokurou to really talk sensitively about the subject. ]

[outstandingbalance]

Well, I gave it a minute. [All the more reason to like him, just now.] But at some point, that's exactly why you have to visit.

At least some people.

[A little smile.] Plus, I like your coffee.

[uwannagobro]

[ He's grinning at the humor; after the somber environment of people trying to ignore their feelings, it's a breath of fresh air to get a little of that. ]

Guess we'd better keep plenty in stock then.

Anyone in particular you're looking to visit? Or are you lying in wait here for an unsuspecting friend?

[outstandingbalance]

A little bit from column A, a little from column B.

[She's multitasking. And possibly being avoidant, but she won't let that get too out of hand.]

Let's say there's one or two people I want to make sure I don't miss, but if I run into some others along the way, it'd be a better visit for it.

[uwannagobro]

Makes sense.

[ His cocks his head over toward the coffee. ]

So is that part of the bait? Make a pot and lure them in?

[outstandingbalance]

It could be. But only half of them drink it.

[She shrugs, but it's clear she's amused by the conversation. Either that, or she puts on a good show of being amused by it.]

The other half will come over to roll their eyes and remind me of the superiority of tea.

[uwannagobro]

[ Rokurou's amused by it at least, but it also doesn't take too much to amuse this particular daemon. ]

So it's a trap that works either way.

[outstandingbalance]

The best traps do. [Said like someone who knows about it.]

Seems like it works on you too. You're here now, at least. Curiosity?

[uwannagobro]

I'm not too hard to catch though, I typically go around looking for trouble.

[ Very true, since where there's trouble, there's usually a fight. And Rokurou's absolutely aching for a good, or at least a fun, fight these days. ]

But yeah, just curious. I've gotten used to the others that're always around, so it's time to start expanding out.

[outstandingbalance]

And I looked like trouble?

[Sipping her coffee, both brows rising in mock horror.]

As far as expanding out goes, I'm a pretty low bar though. If I don't come over for a while, I start getting antsy texts from Steve.

[uwannagobro]

Yup.

[ Sorry not sorry, but Rokurou is used to being around Dangerous Women and Natasha has that vibe going. ]

I'm starting easy. Uh, not that you are, you're just an easy person to talk to for me.

[outstandingbalance]

No, it's okay. You're not wrong. [She raises one eyebrow a little, lips twitching.] Most people don't notice it though.

I've met some of the trouble you're used to, you know.
