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.
