[So, you've survived your first—or fiftieth, or five-hundredth—day in Quiet Mounds. Tonight, it's raining—or, it's not. Maybe you're trying to get used to your new, quiet apartment. The electricity is buzzing in that way that's hard to ignore, a silence so loud it's deafening, in that poetic sort of way.]

[Or maybe you're one of the sad sacks still working at the 24/7 joints. Or their why-am-I-even-up-this-late customers. You're the reason why capitalism does this to people, you know.]

[following behind, a little distracted]

[cinnaponroll]

[yes follow behind closely

heads down the street... takes a turn and stops and looks around... then walks down this new street. should the shop be this far?]

[twicebonded]

Is everything alright?

[cinnaponroll]

It's fine! Everything's fine. It's just the next street over.

[twicebonded]

I know that there's another coffee shop just around the corner. Why don't we go there?

[cinnaponroll]

Eh? Really?! --I mean oh I knew that.

[twicebonded]

Then it's settled.

[taking the lead, let's. let's get us there, poor thing]

[cinnaponroll]

Okay!

[twicebonded]

[leading the way indoors, sighing and hanging up his wet hoodie on the rack just inside the door]

Here we are.

[cinnaponroll]

[does the same]

Look, there's the fireplace. Go sit - I'll ask for some towels for us.

[twicebonded]

Er—

[not sure that this place will have towels but not arguing either]

[cinnaponroll]

[who knows, but meanwhile enjoy the forge-like fireplace and comfy chairs in this nice steampunk cafe

after a few moments, Tsuzuki presses a warm cup against Vanyel's head]

[twicebonded]

[was lost in thought, and jumps a little when that's present to him]

Ah—oh!

[cinnaponroll]

[offers him the lidded cup]

Here, it'll warm you up.

[twicebonded]

Thank you—you didn't need to—

[cinnaponroll]

[he has his own cup too]

I wanted to.
