[he opens his eyes, and smiles]

I'm glad I caught you before you changed back. This physique is aesthetically pleasing, or at least I think so.

Uh, well, thanks. I made it myself?

[preens a little, tucking his hair behind his ear]

You said it was magic, did you not? Like some sort of illusion?

Little bit of column A, little bit of column B. Where column B is actual physical changes. If I cut off some of my hair, like, that bit would stay red? I mean, probably.

But also I put my glasses back on while you had your eyes shut, aaaand turned them invisible?

[reaches out to touch where the glasses would be, to see if he can grab them]

[he can, and they reappear once they’re touched]

And tada, now that illusion’s broken.

Fascinating...! I simply must draw you now, I don't think I can wait any longer.

Have at it. I’m going to be here a while.

Very well. Prepare yourself.

[SPARKLE. anyway he's going to open his sketchbook and start drawing]

[gives him a thumb's up and returns to his braiding, sitting still except for his hands moving]

[he takes a seat on the floor across from him, drawing in silence for a while, focused and intent]

Do you want a coffee or anything? ...Or uh, whenever you're at a break, since I'd have to get up for that, I guess.

[thinks]

I can take a break if it's coffee.

Is instant fine?

Yes, that's fine. It'll be quicker that way.

Quick and convenient is the driving philosophy of my kitchen.

[sets the guitar carefully to the side and rocks to his feet, heading towards the kitchen]

[he waits patiently. give me coffee.]

[he's back in like, 3 minutes. he totally microwaved the water for this coffee.]

[both mugs are some kind of fox design]

The mix is uh, 3-in-1 so. Sorry if you wanted black?

It's fine. Thank you.

[he takes the mug and sips it... and makes a face, but doesn't say anything]

[sits back down, settling into the same position he was in before]

I tried getting one of the coffeeshop guys to do delivery once, but he didn't go for it.

All the coffee I've tried here has been decent... but it isn't quite the same.

[he resumes sketching]

You’ve got a favorite brand?

A favorite coffee shop back home, called Leblanc. I frequented it often, when I had the train fare.

Must've been good stuff if it was worth a trip to. At home I just get, like, whatever Starbucks is in eyesight.

It was always worth it. Boss's coffee is a unique experience, not to mention his curry is excellent, too. A very good friend of mine lived in the attic above the shop, and so it was also a frequent gathering spot for our circle of friends.
