Oh Gods. He commented on it. He froze one of those trademark pleasant smiles on his face- mind racing - what should he say?? Should he fess up? Ava was going laugh so much when he recounted this to her later. Why this??? C'mon Kirket, but your adult pants on and handle this.
"Ahah, y-yeah, a little. I'm sorry if that's..... annoying?" Was... that the word he wanted to use? "It-- it's just, um, I've actually-" OH NO WHAT WAS HE SAYING!? It was too late to stop now........ "I've..... actually been meaning to say hello. Or. Something. To you........ for a while........" He trailed off, slowly shrinking in his seat with each word, fluffy tail curling up around him as if to shield himself from view....
Desalt just watches, blinking as the puff of gray and grayer curled around his companion and the only reason he knew it was green was because he was told...and all greens look like that particular gray. He watches in fascination, he really was super nervous and it was because of him. Well, this is new.
"Oh yeah? You could have just said hello. I don't bite, no matter what my co-workers say." It was weird, he couldn't understand why it would be such a hassle to say hello to anyone.

Oh good. He wasn't upset or something-- geez he probably didn't even know how frequently he stopped by this particular cafe to begin with! He chewed at his lip, absently pushing his tail back down into his lap, and then nervously toying with the fur in his fingers. "Ah, well-- I'm... Not always the best at starting conversations, ahaha. Plus, you know, I happen to be here when you're working so that... would be kind of rude..! I mean, to interrupt you." He glanced around, eyes never quiiiite settling on Desalt's face for very long.
He furrowed his brows, still not getting it but then nods and leans back on the chair more. "I wouldn't mind the distractions. this place is generally quiet for the most part." Sometimes he makes food to giveaway cause he's so bored, but it was a nice side job.
"Well, nows your chance. Hey." he starts out, saying hello which is strange but he doesn't want to make the kid any more nervous than he is.

He blinked, then nodded a little. "W-well... Hello, then." This was stupid. So stupid. "Uhm... I was wondering..." Hadn't he told himself he wasn't going to ask about the phone number? Well.... here it went anyway. He fished the little paper out of his pants pocket and held it up. "Did... did you mean to give this to me?" Well.... he did feel better asking about it, though. In the off chance that he hadn't. That would be terribly embarrassing...
He blinks a few times and looks a the paper before he nods. "yeah...is that a problem?" probably comes off much more aggressive then he intends for it to be but he doesn't notice at all. Maybe he shouldn't have listened to the random joe he works with.

Oh. Oh boy. He meant to. Though he seemed... maybe a little offended at the question? Oh boy. He simply..... stuffed the paper back into his pocket and cleared his throat a little. "O-oh, no, I just--..... Was wondering if you'd meant to or uh, if you'd meant to give it to someone else, maybe......" Well, he wasn't lying.
He shakes his head and crosses a leg over the other. "No, I don't mean for it to go anywhere else." He studies the other. He shouldn't but he's not worried at all, honestly. "Figured it'd be nice to make a friend?"

Friend.
Okay..! Friend wasn't a bad start, if anything it was preferable! Yes-- this... was going surprisingly better than expected? It was almost like a weight was lifted off of his shoulders. Nine this was probably the best turn of events he could've hoped for. "Oh...! W-well in that case, I'd be happy to. Um, when are you free..? I mean, since this is just your break time and all..."
He smiles, happy that kirket is agreeing to be his friend. "I get off at 8, if you wanna hang out?" He can't say he's done this often. his only friend in the world currently and for a long while has been a guy on a computer that he spoke with occasionally.

"Eight...." He hummed thoughtfully and pulled his crystal phone out, squinting as he looked over the appointments for the next day.... "Yes I can do that...! Um, did you want to do anything in particular...?" Goodness it had been ages since he "hung out" with anyone. Not that he'd really had many friends growing up or even through school to begin with, he was only just starting to really branch out now that he was in Asphodel..
He hums, thinking about what he could do with a real physical friend. His wings fidgeted to try and fold back nicely against his back as he thought, before he snapped his claws. "How about a movie? I really dig movies." Movies were a vice of his. Particularly the scary variety. Hopefully Kirket will like them too.

He blinked, and then nodded. "A movie sounds great. Dooo... you have a favorite genre? There are a few new ones out I think... Mostly horror, it is kind of that time of year, hahaha." He shrugged, feeling some of the nervousness disappear. Maybe he was just awkward, too? He could deal with awkward.
His ears perk at the mention of horror movies. "Those are fun. Horror movies are some of my favorites, did you wanna see one of those?" Please say yes. Please say yes. It would suck royally if he didn't like horror movies.
His tail was twitching with excitement at the sheer thought.

Oh, that caught his attention. He couldn't help but smile a little, his own ears perking up a bit. "Actually- I am a fan of horror movies, ahahah. Sometimes they're kinda stupid and sometimes I get really freaked out but they're a lot of fun!" He clapped his hands together, practically wiggling a bit in his seat. "We could go see one of those if you want??"
He grins a bit and nods. "I'd love to." tail ever a twirlin as he gets excited. His watch beeps and he looks back to the clock. "break time over. guess I should go get that cinnamon roll. be right back." he tucks his chair back in neatly and heads back to the kitchen just in time for the oven timer to go off.

He nodded happily, pleased to see that he was happy enough for his tail to twirl a bit. That was a good thing, right?? He was doing well?? "Ah, okay..! Thank you." He smiled, then picked up his latte to sip at it again while he waited. Oooh boy he was going to have to tell Ava about this. Like. Immediately after he left this cafe. Hopefully she wasn't too busy...
Putting on the final touches, a light icing and some powdered sugar, he returns to hand him the sweet. Barely enough time before a rather rowdy group comes wandering in, looking like a real gang of misfits. "...Duty calls." is all he can say before he leaves kirket his check and wanders over to seat the rowdy bunch.

He leaned back a bit as he set the pastry down, then leaned over a bit to see who had come in. Oh goodness. "Good luck...! I'll... come back at eight." He smiled a bit, then sat upright again to start in on his cinnamon roll. His absurdly delicious cinnamon roll...
He waves behind him as he goes on and deals with this stupid groups of rough housers who think they own the world. Typical. he meets someone nice and someone, in this case these assholes, have to come and rain on his parade. Well. atleast he'll be watching a movie with a new pal later. It was enough to keep him calm.
Kirket soon finished off his cinnamon roll, and the rest of his latte... Since it was the sort of place that required paying at a kiosk rather than waiting for the server, he slid out of his seat and then straightened himself out a bit. He then placed a.... fairly generous tip on the table before going to pay for his food. Since poor Desalt was still busy with the rowdy crew, he simply waved slightly on his way out. Oooh boy. He had to get ready. It was just a friend thing, but still! It could potentially lead somewhere else in the future.
