Breathe slowly. It was warm again inside the coffee shop, warmer than the bitter cold outside. Pulling Jett in, Raven grimaced slightly as she closed the door against the cold, letting the warmth suffuse her body slowly. Slipping her mittens off, she helped Jett do the same on all of his hands, trying to warm up.
"Well then... what shall we get you to drink?" she asked, considering the menu.
"...chocolate's good," Jett murmured after a moment, shrugging off his scarf as well. One of the disadvantages of having so many arms was that Raven insisted on bundling all of them up when they went out, which led to bulky clothes, too warm.

Walking into the coffee shop, Val shivers slightly as her body is warming up. Drez on the other hand was very glad that they were out of the cold, for his belly scales were like ice and he didn't like that feeling. Also he was glad that he had on a thick jacket on, taking off his gloves just as his mother was and stoded them in the pockets of his jacket.
"So what do you want?" asking Drez as she was looking at the menu.
"Something that is warm and taste good," he replied rubbing his hands together for some warmth and somewhat forgetting that this was a new place for him, but his tongue was always going to tell him his surroundings.

Jett turned at the sound of new voices. Person-- ish. Another one like him. D-corp. A person.
At Jett's tug on her hand, Raven turned to look at where he was looking. Another D-corp, hm? "Hey there," she waved with her other hand.

Val turned to the voice that was calling to her. She noticed that the other had a D-Corp like Drez. Val walked over to the two of them with Drez now reallizing that this was a new place and such is playing with his necklace that is hanging outside of his coat and following his mother.
"Hi, I'm Val," she replied to Raven. Drez couldn't say anything but his tongue going in and out really fast to 'look' at them.

"I'm Raven. I see you have D-corp child too," she smiled, stroking a lock of hair back. "This is Jett," she motioned to her little boy.

"Its nice to meet you. Yes I do and his name is Drez," she replied bringing him closer where they could see him.
" Umm..I'm wondering what type of DNA you have Jett?" he asked curiously as his tongue slowed down a little. "Also my DNA is a banded sea krait," he added.

This one talked a little much. More than Jett ever had when he was young-- frustrating. No searching for words like most others, simply stating what he thought. Jett cocked his head to the side, considering the blue D-corp for a moment before deciding it was safe to answer. "Black Widow is my other half," he murmured quietly.
Something about the way Jett seemed so tense put Raven on edge as well. This was supposed to be fun, wasn't it? Glancing down at her little boy, she considered him for a brief moment before giving Val an apologetic smile. "Jett's a bit anti-social," she sighed quietly by way of explanation, even though she knew it wasn't completely true. He didn't have problems with some people...

Val just smiled back. "Its ok." she replied and there was a small tug on her shirt from Drez, as to remined her what they were there for and to get the tention out of the air. "Come on lets order something and sit down to talk, is that ok?" she asked Raven.

Well... a little while couldn't hurt, and it would do Jett good to get to know people he wasn't entirely comfortable with. "All right," she mumured as she turned back to the line, placing her order for a hot chocolate and a caramel latte.

Val smiled and waited for Raven to order and then after she order for the both of them mint hot chocolate. Picking up her order she pointed to a table that had enought chairs for them to sit at. "Is that fine," she asked Raven.

Raven nodded, leading Jett over to the aforementioned table, sitting the boy down. "So, Val... I suppose the polite question would be to ask how old Drez is?"

"He is around 4 years old. Drez be careful that drink is hot," Val replied as Drez nodded and tryed his first taste his drink. He perked up alot after tasteing his drink and smiled. "Mother this tastes great, thanks. So Jett what do you do for fun?" Drez asked as he took another drink waiting for a reply from Jett.

"He's quite... vocal for a four year old," Raven smiled slightly. She was unsure of that-- most children she knew were quiet, or they stumbled over their words, but perhaps it was just the kids she'd come across? It was quite possible that there were a great many children who were just as vocal, well versed in their words.
Raven felt no need to warn Jett about the heat-- he would know. If he didn't, he wasn't as careful as she thought.
Glancing at the boy, Jett considered him for a moment before taking a slow sip of his drink. He'd been asked this question before, hadn't he? But for some reason, Drez was rubbing him the wrong way. Perhaps it was the younger boy being so talkative... "...inject things with venom," Jett explained, quiet enough that Raven wouldn't hear.

"Yes he is, but at least he's better behaved than my familar. Also when you lose one sense you have to make it up with your others," Val said taking a sip of her drink. Drez didn't think too deeply into what Jett had said. "Thats cool, I have venon as well. But I haven't yet bit anyone," he wispered back at Jett.

((Don't mind me color switching!))
Raven didn't comment on the last, though her thoughts were somewhat scattered when it came to that. After all, the five senses did not include the power of speech. Speech was simply a mental concern, and the mind, while the center of the senses, was not a traditional compensation towards the failure of one's organs to properly function. Ah well. Nodding slightly, the girl took a sip of her drink, considering.
He was a child. Jett was a child as well, but not one as strange or foolish as this one, apparently. Jett shrugged and took another sip of his drink. He didn't feel the need to share with Drez how he injected others, or what else he did in his spare time.
