► It was like a magic trick, watching Mithllo play with his needles. Slight of hand had always impressed Rhys, even when she could partially perform it herself. It was easier to just knock someone unconscious and take their stuff, though. The complement was received with mixed emotions, though. She still thought that nickname was bad. With how nice Mithllo was being, if Rhys had any semblance of an ego, it would be so inflated right now. Her pride, unfortunately, was already decimated by his nicknames. Hearing him list off his other skills, she covered her mouth as a smile lit her face, one that threatened laughter. "What is this, a speed date?" She asked, obviously joking. She acknowledged the fact Mithllo was definitely going to use that against her, and she was prepared to strike.
The waitress came back out with their food. Rhys thanked her respectfully. She'd ordered a spicy sandwich, something that was easier for her to eat. Those tusks weren't just for show, after all. They could pierce through even the hardest of baguettes like it was butter. "You might have to bake me some brownies sometime," she added. They weren't her favorite desert, but they were good anyway. She wasn't going to touch that flexible comment. Well, now was a good time as any to ask about Rhys, if Mithllo wanted.

He teased in response, he paused, showing her mercy as he took the food set down in front of him, some tea and a BLT sandwich. Mmm, Bacon. When he heard her mention having him bake her some brownies he gave a playful wink again. "Can do~ Any flavors of preference?" He asked, so many brownie flavors, might as well know the kinds she liked.
He took the brief silence as the hint he needed to ask his own questions, unlike hers though, his would be a little deeper than what she's capable of. "So what was your motivation for joining? You seem more like the type for law enforcement rather than what we do for a living." He remarked, gesturing towards her.║▌│█│║▌║││█║▌│║║█║█║▌│█║▌│║║█║ ϺϴȻҚIȠGɃIЯD║▌│█│║▌║││█║▌│║║█║█║▌│█║▌│║║█║

► It was not a date. "It's not a date," Rhys echoed her thoughts, pouting again at her sandwich. Honestly, when Mithllo said he was a lover, this really wasn't the kind of thing she had in mind. She went to take a bite of her food when his question caught her off guard. A look of pure disgust crossed her face, one that ran deeper than just superficial anger. "Don't make me laugh," she said dryly, less than amused. "I run a flower shop. This is second one I've owned. The first went up in flames, along with everything to my name," she said. It was one of those "first floor is a shop, second and third floors are a living space" type deals. "I know a hate crime when I see one, but the cops didn't do s**t," Rhys finished, taking a calm bite of her sandwich. "Not in it for revenge, though. I just want to protect what I care about. Who I care about." She sent Mithllo a look, because as much as he annoyed her, the list of people she cared for included him. She was Head Sentinel for a reason.
Since Mithllo had brought up the topic, she felt it was only fitting to shoot the question right back at him. "What about you?" She asked, taking a bite of her sandwich. He seemed like the kind of guy who would be fine on his own. There had to be am interesting story there. Or a sad one. Mithllo looked like the kind of guy who would have a tragic backstory.

"A flower shop? That explains your referencing back to flower comparisons for me." He remarked, flashing another smile, before he answered her question, storing away the information of her reason for joining in his mind.
"Family connections I guess. My father was in the original gang." He admitted, moving his hand dismissively. "Hardly anything interesting about that though." He finished, taking a bite from his sandwich.║▌│█│║▌║││█║▌│║║█║█║▌│█║▌│║║█║ ϺϴȻҚIȠGɃIЯD║▌│█│║▌║││█║▌│║║█║█║▌│█║▌│║║█║

► It was starting to feel increasingly like a date the more time progressed, it was true, but didn't two people getting food always look like one? Rhys definitely wasn't looking for a date, in any case. She shrugged in response to his teasing, taking a drink of her water. The food wasn't bad here. Mithllo finally connected the dots on the whole flower thing. "Yes, I'm a florist. It's pretty easy to tell if you see my room," She commented. Not like Mithllo ever would. Just the thought of having him in her room sent uncomfortable images to the forefront of her mind, ones that took a bit of effort to brush to the side.
"Yep, boring," Rhys teased in the dryiest voice possible. It sounded like the long and short of his story, so she really didn't need to hear any more. She went back to eating her sandwich for a moment. She pushed her bangs away from her eyes, revealing piercing emerald eyes and eternally angry eyebrows. "Come up with something to talk about," She ordered, nudging Mithllo's leg. "That's what you do on dates, right?" Rhys wasn't going to try and pass off that joke, or explain it away. She knew what it implied. "It's weird," she started, leaning in to peer at Mithllo. "You've been nice to be around. Something must be wrong in the universe," she teased, smirking at the trickster.

"I thought it wasn't a date?" He teased, drinking more of his tea. "What's your favorite flower?" He asked, making a gesture with his hand. Might as well learn more about her.
"I'm always a pleasure to be around, once you get to know me." He teased with another wink.║▌│█│║▌║││█║▌│║║█║█║▌│█║▌│║║█║ ϺϴȻҚIȠGɃIЯD║▌│█│║▌║││█║▌│║║█║█║▌│█║▌│║║█║

► Rhys stared at Mithllo with a cold expression. "No." There was no chance that he was stepping foot into her room. He'd probably somehow taint everything with his... essence. Rhys decided to move on from this train of thought. It was heading towards some strange territory. She raised her eyebrows and rubbed one of her now exposed, small horns (which I forgot to mention). While the other was still covered by her bangs, one was out in the open. She was an Oni, a demon who's characteristics were horns, the teeth she had poking out from lips, and blue, red, or brown skin. Rhys purposefully hid them in order to appear more human-looking, despite her huge stature. You tend to do things like that when the victim of hate crimes. That and she thought her hair looked nice that way. She only gave an indignant stare when Mithllo questioned the status of their not-date.
"Favorite flower?" She parroted, thinking. It was hard to come up with an answer, not because so many flowers existed, but because Rhys, despite being a florist, liked other plants more. "Orchids, probably. I like succulent plants the best, though. They're the ones with thick, rubbery leaves. Sometimes they're fuzzy," she explained. The term succulents also included Cacti, but she really didn't think Mithllo cared about the details. "What's that thing you keep doing with your eye? You have a twitch?" She teased, winking back at him.

He gave a nod as he listened to her answer, before taking a contemplative thought of his sandwich, "Like a Cactus?" He asked, flashing her a mischievous smile.

► There was honestly nothing that openly surprised Rhys more than Mithllo having some knowledge of plants. It almost made him... attractive? She pushed her bangs back down to their original place in order to block a direct view of him. He looked so smug. She wanted to punch him for it. "Yes," she said, "I'm surprised you know." She took a bite of her sandwich, peering suspiciously at Mithllo. She knew what his abilities were in a general sense, most tricksters were capable of what he did, but she wondered if he had any telepathic abilities, she felt like she was in trouble. While all of her emotions besides rage and embarrassment were usually subdued, they weren't hard to read. Her mind would be like an audio book of all her thoughts. He probably wouldn't even be phased if she thought of porn.
"Me? Flirting?" She said, feigning ignorance. "That's almost enough to make me laugh. Except I never laugh." Or, she chose not to. Rhys wasn't too fond of her laugh. In a few words, it was shrill, loud, and giggly. Mithllo probably noticed the absence of laughter when she was angry, but even now she hadn't so much as let out a chuckle. "Why so flattered? Don't think you're good enough for me?" She cooed, taking a sip of her water and returning a smug smile.

Maybe I should visit your shop, I might find something worth purchasing for Mothers day when it rolls around." He remarked, he wasn't empathic, but his mind was one hell of a maze.
"Oh really? I think you'd have a cute laugh. I'd love to hear it sometime." He kept right on smiling, "I'll do my best to get you to laugh someday." When she asked the question he leaned back finishing off his tea.

► Rhys frowned. She didn't like the idea of having to use her customer service voice on him. Then again, seeing her being unbearably cheery might be funny. "Store's called Spines and Spices. I sell more than just gift-bouquets," She said. There was also candy based off of flowers, terrariums, and other decorative things. She had a feeling he'd want something that was easier to take care of. Maybe a closed system. She groaned at his interest in her laugh. "It's shrill and annoying. I'm doing you a favor," she said. "I'd love to see you try."
What had meant to be a joke had gotten too real with Mithllo's reply. Honestly, it was a little unnerving. Rhys didn't know where it stemmed from, and she couldn't have predicted that he would say that, but she felt an overwhelming amount of guilt wash over her. "Hey, you-" she began, concerned. But she cut herself off. She didn't know what to say. She been there before, though, or at least could sympathize. Silently, Rhys reached out and took Mithllo's empty hand in hers. She held it for a moment with a tender expression on her face. Then she used her free arm to whap Mithllo on the side of the head. "Shut up, Licorice. It's rude to lie on a date," she said, keeping a gently, but firm grip on his hand. "You're fine."

► There was a nagging feeling to Rhys that Mithllo didn't really feel better, but she'd drop it for now. There was no reason to bring it back up, really. "Dear?" she questioned, making a disgusted face at Mithllo for using such a married-couple term. Without letting go of Mithllo, she finished off her sandwich and licked any crumbs or sauce off of her tusk. She had an incessant urge to run her thumb over the back of his hand. They were so slim compared to hers. "I want you..." Rhys began, purposefully pausing at that moment, "to help me train tomorrow. I want to get faster." The sentence was punctuated by a mischievous smirk.
Rhys took a sip of her water, leaning on the table. With a full belly and a pretty face in front of her, today was starting to look pretty good. She still had so much to do, though. The massive amount of roses she was growing in preparation for the holidays weren't going to tend to themselves, and she had herbs to ship, and the list went on. "What other plans have you got today?" She asked, for a few reasons in particular, mainly being to make future plans.

His shoulders shook as the light laughter escaped him. Then he gave a nod and a wink, "Anything for you CherryPop." He remarked past the chuckles.
He thought over what else he could have planned before giving a shrug, "Unless I receive orders anytime soon I don't really have any plans. Why do you ask?" He tilted his head to the side, using his free hand to pick up his sandwich and eat it past the smile.║▌│█│║▌║││█║▌│║║█║█║▌│█║▌│║║█║ ϺϴȻҚIȠGɃIЯD║▌│█│║▌║││█║▌│║║█║█║▌│█║▌│║║█║

► Rhys felt heat rise to her cheeks again, not expecting to get such a rise of laughter from Mithllo. Another bashful smile was sent towards the table, the blush darkening when at his response. Anything for her, eh? What a flirt. She should punch him for that terrible line. In regards to why she asked he had any plans, she answered him with, "well, I have some things I need to take care of today, but," she paused, thinking of how long it would take her to complete each task. The delivery would take the longest, because herbs weren't exactly mail friendly. "If you want, you could keep me company on a delivery today. Or, uh, or we could meet later tonight," she offered. Her voice wavered a bit, nervous about asking to spend time with someone else later. Honestly, she hadn't spent time with anything like a friend in god knows how long.
Of course, Rhys hardly made friends easily. Even now Mithllo didn't quite fit the bill for "friend." Perhaps he was shooting for something else.
