"Because people like to pry." he started, as he highlighted another line, "Does it really matter, anyway?"

"Little bit. I mean f'we're gonna be friends I need t'know what sets y'off."
She watched him highlight, with the motion meaning nothing. Probably important cop business.

"Friends?" Shun scoffed at that, "You seem to be presuming much."

"I mean we could be a different kind of friend f'you're down," she said, wiggling her eyebrows a little bit before letting out a laugh. He'd already made it clear he wasn't interested.
"Naw I'm kiddin'," she told him, waving her drink a few times. He highlighted another word and finally Chel asked, "What're you doin' anyways?"

Shun just raised his brow at her. With a slow shake of his head, he highlighted another paragraph as he finished off his current cup of coffee.
"I already told you. Work."

He gave her a look. Then, he just tapped his headphones.

So Chel did the normal-human thing and gestured he give her the headset. At least she didn't take it right out.

There was a touch of hesitation in his movement. So instead, he just unplugged his headset so the speaker would temporarily be used. After a keystroke, a somewhat computerized voice seemed to be narrating out some dry legal jargon.

Chel stared at the computer for a moment, perplexed by the noise. She'd never seen a text to voice function (and even if she had it would have been in a correction facility and she wouldn't have been inclined to use it).
"You're making it talk at you?" she tilted her head for a moment, unfazed by the people who looked over at the now-talking computer. "Why?"

Shun plugged his headphones back in, silencing the laptop to the general public once more.
"Do you ever stop asking questions?"

"My name's Chel y'know. Shun." She brushed his arm lightly like a half-hearted smack. "And believe me, this ain't even close t'badgerin'."

Shun swatted her hand away with a huff. "Well it is close enough as far as I am concerned. You could really use a mute switch or something."
