Welcome to Gaia! ::

She had poured two cups of coffee, holding off on adding any cream or sugar to the second cup in the event one or the other might make her new friend ill. Amusement danced through her eyes as she watched Bindhi enter the kitchen, making a gesture for her to have a seat at the small bistro table. "I'm thinking you should probably drink the first cup black, unless you think it's going to make you yak... Do you take cream and sugar usually? We didn't quite make it to coffee last night for me to find out."

Honestly, she was lucky that Abigail had answered her phone last night. It would have been hard enough for her to drag the amazoness the few blocks to her apartment on her own, let alone try to get her into a cab. She doubted that Bindhi actually remembered the spunky blonde helping her haul the stumbling drunk up to her apartment, or the giggling attempts at groping as they'd wrestled her into something to sleep in. Abigail had went home after Cordelia had reassured her that she'd be alright, and Cordy had sat up with Bindhi for a bit to make sure she wasn't going to be sick before crashing for a few hours herself.

"I threw your clothes in the laundry with some of my things last night. They're in the dryer now. I'm thinking coffee first, though, then some Gatorade... And probably something starchy for breakfast. Are you a waffles or a pancake girl?"

"Does motorboating me count as doing something stupid?" Her brow lofted, soft smirk on her lips as she glanced over her shoulder to the other woman while drawing a glass bowl down out of her cabinet before turning to the pantry to retrieve the waffle iron and the waffle mix. "Because, if we're being honest, I don't think that was nearly as stupid as drinking whatever it was you must have had before coming to the club. My guess would've been dragon's piss, but I don't think there are any more dragons around to volunteer for bottling that sort of thing." Despite her words, her tone was light; more teasing than the overly abrasive she might have been in this sort of situation had Bindhi not seemed so troubled the night before.

"After letting you giggle into my chest for a bit I managed to shuffle you over to the bench by the bus stop until a friend of mine showed up to help me get you home. Between the two of us we managed to get you up the stairs and into the bathroom where you seemed to be okay for a little bit; you said you were okay, at least, and when you stumbled out there wasn't anything broken or written in lipstick on my mirror." Again, with a little bit of teasing to her tones as she filled a measuring cup with some water, pouring it into the mix before stirring. "Abi left not long after you started stripping. She stayed just long enough to help me coax you into a night shirt and get you comfortable on the couch."

"I don't normally bring drunks home, especially not drunks from work..." Something about the other woman's situation had hit home with her, though, and she hadn't been able to shake off the feeling that making sure she was alright was something that she needed to do. It was hard, even now, thinking of doing anything differently with just how familiar the sound of her name coming from Bindhi sounded.

"You looked like you were in need of a friend and I'd like to think that if I was ever in that kind of situation someone would look out for me too." She nodded, letting the waffle iron heat up. "Actually, I'm surprised you remember my name." She added on with another soft, teasing grin. "Would you like some more coffee?"

"You don't have to make it up to me." She shook her head, opening the iron to give it a spritz with some butter flavored cooking spray before pouring some of the batter into it. "Honestly. I don't deserve any sort of special treatment for having a bit of human decency. I might ask you if you'll treat me to coffee after a shift sometime when you haven't been putting yourself through a bender, though."

She was smiling softly as she glanced over her shoulder before turning so that she could bring the coffee pot over to Bindhi, refilling her cup easily. "Cream or sugar this time?"

"Let's make sure you can keep down breakfast first, then we'll talk about a shopping trip?" Her brow lofted slightly, soft, teasing smirk on her lips. "If you'd like to go snag a quick shower you can have the second waffle? Might clear your head a little too. Usually helps me on the days that are a little harder to get through. I do splurge a little sometimes on fancy soaps and cleansers too, so you can treat yourself to that and a fluffy towel?"

"Right this way." She laughed softly, leading Bindhi across the apartment and down a short hall to her bathroom. She nudged the door open gently before standing aside. "Towels are in the closet there, and I -think- the dryer should be done shortly." She made a small gesture to the wash closet right across from the bathroom door.

"Need anything else?"

"Habit leftover from being a spoiled rich kid growing up." She smirked softly, setting a plate with a fresh waffle down on the table next to the syrup before making a gesture for Bindhi to take a seat. "I try not to spend too much on too many 'frivolous' things now, but... Working at the club, I figure I can treat myself to some nice things every now and then."

She picked up her cup of tea again, taking a small sip from it as she leaned against the counter. "Feeling any better?"

"Crystal Academy for me, once it was time for highschool. I usually got to come home for weekends, though, unless there was a reason for me to stay on campus. It meant I had my own bathroom and my own things... And one of daddy's credit cards." She shook her head thinking about it, taking another slow sip of her tea.

"He tried to convince me to keep it for emergencies. Neither he nor my mother understand why I refused. Honestly, I didn't really offer them the best explanation either. Sometimes it's just... For the best. He'd probably have a bird if he knew where I was working." That brought a small quirk of a smile to her lips.
