[The lady said Demons but I can't think of a scenario so fuck it.

Today a mutant is out at a cafe in...surprisingly classy for borderline punk chick clothes. And checking her phone. And kind of nervous and trying not to fidget with her hair.

This is totally not a date and it clearly cannot go hilariously wrong, right?]

I don't see any reason not to make a whole night of it...you'll have me all to yourself, I promise you that.

So long as I have you all to myself, then, I could care less what we do.

[He smiles, placing the money down for his part of the meal, and stands.]

Let's not tarry, then.

[Give her a moment to get out the correct amount of her half and then she'll also stand, and hold out a hand.]

When you put it that way...come on. We'll make it one to remember.

[Fine, he'll just reach out and take her hand in his!]

Then by all means. Lead on.

[yaaay handholding--wait right we're adults. Let's going!]

[It's fine to be excited, Saori. He'll just hold her hand and follow along and do his best not to tell her how adorable she's being.]

[Shush, she hasn't been on a real person date since middle school, she's allowed to be happy.

it isn't that far a walk, thankfully, and true to her word, the owner does wave them in after a second and oh my those are a lot of very colorful fish in tanks!]

[And when he knows the owner isn't watching anymore, she's getting hugged from behind, while they look at those very colorful fish in their tanks.]

It's beautiful.

[She's plenty happy to lean back into him. This is nice and comfy.]

Yeah...in a way, I'm a little sad it'll open soon. It'd be nice to keep a place like this just between us two.

Unfortunately, we can't. Still, I imagine your friend might let us in some time, before opening, or after closing, as long as we didn't break anything or leave the scenery too disturbed.

[He is equally okay with holding her, it turns out!]

...I dunno, breaking things sounds fun sometimes, too, y'know?

[And she was doing so well about behaving, too.]

[Reaching up and poking her in the nose.]

No. Bad Saori. We don't break things in the new shop we're not even supposed to be in.

...[Tilting her head up to lick his finger, then!] I'm not a cat, Julian!

...No, you're a bit more like a bird, aren't you?

[He's not getting rid of the offending hand, though he'll move it away from poking her in the nose.]

Bird? Where are you getting that?

[...Licking his finger again, more experimentally?]

I'm not sure. Just something about you reminds me of a bird. Something... hard to put into words.

[He does not seem to mind her licking his finger at all.]

Well now I kinda want to hear you try.

[What about if she sucks on it a little, what then?]

[Then she is very much distracting him by doing that, and he's blushing a bit.]

I... don't know. You're rather mercurial. Your hair reminds me of feathers, there's a lilt in your voice...

A lilt...? [Well then she's going to do it some more, even while encouraging him to keep talking.]

J-just the way you say things, there's a tone to it, it rises and falls a little more than a normal person. It, it reminds me of birdsong...

[Yeah it's getting hard for him to focus while she does that.]

I didn't realize you were paying that much attention...[She stops for a moment! ...to kiss into his palm.] You didn't hear that from one night and one date, either.

Well, we have had classes since then, but you would be amazed how a night like that burns itself into your memory.

[He'll lean around some, to look more at her.]

And you accuse me of being unfair...

I never said I wasn't! [Which she punctuates by running her tongue over the bones in his wrist.]

I don't see they're mutually exclusive.

I'm sorry, you don't see how what was mutually exclusive?

[Saori, you're kind of driving him to distraction, here.]
