“Aha! I’m happy to. It’s been such a pleasure, this whole thing, but overwhelming. This was a wonderful change of pace,” Aandes remarked slyly. He tapped his empty plate with a finger and sat back in his chair. Sinter still had to finish his cake, after all! Aandes spent the remainder of his date’s meal making casual small talk and filling up on more iced coffee. Where does he work? He is currently mobile, but has some bids for a small space in Four Fronds – land is expensive, but closeness to amenities is simply a must for his line of work. A casual transition into food, and Aandes described his favorite flavor profiles. Creamy, thick dark chocolate with salted caramel was his recent obsession, but only in frozen treats. Ginger was currently the winner for baked goods, along with orange and praline. Aandes wasn’t sure how long the two were conversing, but when both plates and glasses were empty he hardly realized how much time had passed. The two continued, with Aandes ending up trilling and let out an embarrassing beep after realizing how long he ranted about his disdain for celery, which transitioned into a brief rail against his lusus and a flush consumed his cheeks. He never brought up Pops with company. At least, not the Pops he knew.
Thankfully, Aandes was saved by the bill. “Aha!” He swiped it from the table and shot a smirk at Sinter. “My treat.”

Sinter was having a lovely time. Chatting with Aandes only seemed to enhance the taste of his carrot cake. Coupled with the coffee the whole affair felt so classic, and yet, effortless. Aandes was easy to talk to. It was something Sinter rarely experienced, even with Tamiya there were certain… elements that couldn’t be ignored. Sinter wasn’t sure if his elation was from the comfortable conversation or the sheer amount of coffee he’d accidentally consumed. The latter was likely related to the former. Sinter had lost track of how long this date had gone on. He’d learned his fair share about Aandes. Sinter was certain he had to visit Four Fronds now. It sounded like a wonderful place, and Aandes could certainly get him in touch with the best of the best as far as food and entertainment went. Sinter talked lightly about the stark contrast that was Chittentown, but praised the cozy holes-in-the-wall establishments that would pop up, seemingly from nowhere. He told a couple funny anecdotes about taking Tamiya into town on busy shopping days. He admitted to having tried his hand at writing slam poetry before realizing he couldn’t rhyme worth a damn.
Aandes’ lusus sounds were frankly adorable coming from such a stylish, put-together individual. Sinter waved it off for Aandes’ sake, but made a mental note of the noise. There wasn’t a whole lot he could have picked up from his own lusus. Perhaps his permanent blush could have counted for bioluminescence.
Before Sinter could say as much, the check came. Just as he reached for it, the paper slipped out from under his fingers. ”What- H-Hey!” Sinter glared at Aandes with more self-consciousness than genuine irritation. Still, he wasn’t about to argue in a public place like this, especially after such a nice time. ”At least let me leave the tip,” he grumped.
