We got a new shipment in. Different flavors. Figured you'd be interested.

you're welcome booches

[gunmods]

Oh. ...Yeah, I think I'm almost out. You guys open now?

[bestbrew]

Yup. Why I called.

[ listen he isn't even loyal to this place and yet he's acting like it's his own shop. ]

[gunmods]

Thanks. What flavors?

[So he can tell you what to put aside for him.]

[bestbrew]

Eh.

[ okay he's gonna sort through these bad boys right now -- ]

...Razzleberry?

[ what. ]

[gunmods]

...What. Did you sneeze?

[Were words involved?]

[bestbrew]

[ MAYBE... no. ]

Don't ask me. That's what the box said. I'm not signed up to be a taste tester.

[gunmods]

That's all it says? Razzleberry or whatever the hell?

...Nah, what else you got?

[unyieldingdragon]

Hey Iwai! [Hope he's not interrupting your beauty sleep this morning, with his gloriously loud voice.]

Happy New Years to you! [That was three days ago] You got anything going on this morning?

[Voice]

[gunmods]

Morning Dhurke. [Nope, you've caught him in the midst of coffee.]

Cup of coffee and not much else. How's your New Years going?

[Voice]

[unyieldingdragon]

Oh, you already had your coffee? I guess I'll have to owe you another time. [He laughs]

New Years was good! I got to spend some quality time with my boy.

[Voice]

[gunmods]

I had coffee made by me. And it's shit. So you can still buy me some today.

That so? He's doing well?

[Voice]

[unyieldingdragon]

Hah, well all right. Come on down to the coffeehouse and I'll get you a good cup.

As for Apollo...he's doing just fine. [There was this comforting warmth spreading through the link.] You could say the holidays got us a little closer.

[Voice]

[gunmods]

I'll be there in a bit.

[He needs to get a bit better dressed.]

Good to hear. He sounds like a good kid.

[Voice->Action]

[unyieldingdragon]

Yea, he turned out all right, all things considered. Did I ever tell you what he does?

[Whenever Iwai comes in, Dhurke will be seated at the counter.]

[Action]

[gunmods]

[He'll wait to talk again until he's at the counter with him. Moving to sit beside him.]

Don't think you did. Since we've got all day.

[Action]

[unyieldingdragon]

Hah, well he's a lawyer, a defense attorney just like me a long time ago. [And he'll go ahead and order them their coffees.]

He's a solid one at that. He managed to save my family back home.

an inoccuous text message of little importance

[purrtagonist]

How do you hotwire a car?

[gunmods]

What makes you think I know?

[Action]

[gunmods]

Wow. He must make you proud. [Let's never explain what Iwai does.]

Can't say my kid's much like that, but still pretty proud of him.

[purrtagonist]

Instinct.

Am I wrong?

[Action]

[unyieldingdragon]

More than you can ever imagine. I owe him my life for what he's done for us and for the Kingdom of Khura'in. [Quite literally his life.]

So what about your kid then?
