Alowicous Snuffalupagus Burying her face in her hands Merryn muffled, "No, I can talk about it." Sitting back up, she cleared her throat in a professional manner and then cracked out laughing. How do I explain how I feel about Fallen as well as Jalceri? Pondering that she started talking, "Well, Jordyn and I met... a really long time ago. We were sort of made for each other, he protected me and I loved him. So, about a year before we came here he did something I didn't approve of. Not a little thing, a big thing. And we've been growing distant ever since. We've been trying everything, but have sort of given up on it." Breathing she smiled to herself, Well, there's the first part. Ryn took the lollipop stick out of her mouth and set it on her napkin as she continued, "So, I meet this other person a few nights ago. She's... beautiful. Very exotic, and I think we could have something, but after Jordyn..."Trailing off she giggled and shook her head. "I'm sorry, I talk too much."

A tall, thin boy slipped into the coffee shop. He wore a hooded black jacket, hood up to hide his face. He slunk around the tables, moving to avoid people the best possible and located himself near the back, pulling out what looked like a battered, leatherbound notebook, and removing a pen from somewhere on his person, beginning to write.

Kel listened thoughtfully. "I cant say that I've ever been truly in love, so I'm not much for advice there. I've had flirtations, but never anything serious. Life is way too short for being serious."
She grinned at her new friends.

Merryn piped up happily, "I guess being away from humans most of my life I hadn't realised that." Giggling she fluttered her wings and moved a bit in her seat. "Either of you want something more to drink?" She asked. "It's not a problem really." Itching to get up and away from this conversation she would have done anything to change the subject.

"I'm fine, thank you." she said, inclining her head in a slight nod to Merryn. "Much, much too short for seriousness." She angled the sketchbook up so the others could see it. "Do you think this is a practical design?" she gestured at the design, a rather fantastically draped formal gown.

Kel watched curiously as a tall thin boy walked in, noticing with interest that he seemed to be avoiding the people gathered.
Shrugging, she turned back to meet Merryn's eyes with a smile. "I would love another fat-free latte, thank you."

Following Kel's eyes to the thin boy, Merryn cocked an eyebrow at how stand-offish he seemed. Smiling serenely she nodded to the two of them, "Oh, Yoshiko that's beautiful... I'd buy something that amazing." Turning to look more directly at Kel she smirked, "Fat free? Are you sure, you could totally drink whole." Getting up she brushed her skirt off and made for the counter, shooting one last quizzical look at the boy in the back and then at Kel.

The boy still didn't say anythign but, warm as it was in the room, he pushed his hood back, sending a wave of black hair down around his face. Upon closer inspection, one could see his hair was, in fact, actually dark green, and it was just the shadowed corner that made it appear otherwise. Nothing could be seen of his face still, an he kept writing, rapidly.

Kel turned her gaze to Yoshiko's drawing. "That's gorgeous! You have a terrific style Yoshiko."
Her gaze turned again to the boy in the corner, her attention caught as his hood fell back.

Ryn returned with Kel's drink and her one chai and sighed wistfully at Yoshi's sketch. "I'd wear a gown like that.." she said, "if I had someone to dance with." Twirling before she sat down she stole one last glance under her hair at the mysterious boy and Kel. Leaning in she whispered, "Do either of you know that boy?"

"Thank you. Glad you like my designs." she said, smiling and waving a hand to indicate the similarity of their outfits. Yoshiko put the sketchbook back on the table and glanced up at the skinny boy the other two seemed to be interested in. nothing special... "No clue who he is...I'll have to figure out how to sew those draperies in place without being so obvious...Open back, perfect for a winged someone!" She chirped brightly, staring down at the sketch, her hands itching for some colored pencils.
(pocky go to bed now. yoshiko can kinda fall out of the conversation if necessary. pretend she's absorbed in sketching or something. ^_0 )

Merryn twittered in joy at Yoshi and shook her head to get her growing hair out of her eyes and whispered, "He's kind of... dark, but knowing my Fallen, he can't be that bad." Gesturing slightly towards the stranger she smiled sadly and touched the side of her face as she looked to Keladry, "Wanna see about going over an meeting him?"

Kel shook her head slowly. "I've never seen him before. There's just...something about him, an aura I supose."

In the midst of their talking, the boy stood, stretching, alnguidly, revealing his face for the first time. It was ple, even for the boys around here, almost stark white, with exceptional green eyes. Not bright, really, or dark, but with the gemstone quality of polished cut emeralds. His cheekbones were high, and his nose straight and small, almost elven looking. The mix gave him a sharp, mischevious sort of appearance. He closed his book, settling back into a slight slouch as he slipped towrds the door. This time, he didn't make a point to avoid anyone, and actually seemed to make a point of passing their table.
As he did, he slowed, paues and tipped an invisible hat, smiling in a wry, playful sort of way.
"Evening, ladies," was all he said, before winking, and slipping out of the shop.
((On that note, I make a post to the cemetary to settle him and off to bed Sound-chan goes. If I can sleep through the mouse noises. O_O;; ))

Shrugging Merryn threw the boy out of her mind for the time being, "Say, do you like dancing?" Throwing her hair over her shoulder with a disgusted look at it she wrinkled up her nose as she couldn't help but think of the strange boy, "I would love to sing and dance with someone. I know this is a coffee house, but there has to be more to do here."
