Gifts? You shouldn't have!

But I will not say no either. Where would you like to meet?

I shouldn't have but I wanted to!

Let's see, do you want to meet outside, somewhere like a cafe, or one of our places?

How about a cafe then?

It can be a coffee date!

I would very much like that! Do you have any in mind?

I do actually!

It has the best deals on donuts.

Oh? How exciting, let's go! I would love to see what donuts you enjoy.

Alright then see you there!

[And later at a little coffee shop that looks like every coffee shop ever, except very 80's, they can meet!]

[And she's meeting him after his instruction, and what a lovely place he's found!]

It looks so comfortable! Even with the bright colours.

[He's dressed very casual for the occasion, shirt, jeans, leather jacket. Almost but not quite out of place.]

I am glad you like it. I will admit I do not know much about decor in this era, but I thought it looked exciting.

[The fact is he looks really good like that, that she was found herself pausing for a moment. Gawain looks good in modern clothes, and it's distressing.

Play it cool.]

There is much for you to discover now, no? So much has changed throughout the years, like technology. I feel the same, being here.

[He's become less aware of her staring at him by now, other than a pleasant feeling, the one that comes with impressing one they esteem so highly.]

Really? I thought you were far more ahead of me with this nonsense. Now I do not feel so alone.

[He should be proud of himself, it's true! He's really getting the hang of t his. And she laughs softly.]

I am, however, everything here is still quite far ahead that I am still catching up.

[He still has a long way to go on a lot of things, but he’ll still bask in the small sense of pride he is feeling right now.]

Then we shall both struggle together. Though coffee should definitely not be a hardship. And I shall pay, so feel free to order whatever you wish.

[Tiny steps still count!]

Yes! Teamwork ensures we will learn best together, no? Oh! Is it your treat? [He's always spoiling her.] Perhaps it is a good thing I brought souvenirs. So I will accept. Hmm...an iced coffee would be lovely, I think.

Oh that's right in this time and place, they worry more about splitting the check...

[Where he was from, it was who was wealthiest and higher status who paid...

Though Gawain supposes he never really asked how important Sen was in her own world. But well, it hardly matters.]

Okay an iced coffee for you and a latte for me.

[He'll order, flashing the Barista his nicest smile, because why not?]

Yes. It's more commonplace...something you are less used to, I suppose?

[She knows how this goes, having lived through a time like this. And she would be paying if they followed his trends.]

Thank you very much, Gawain!

[She really wants to see him drink a latte, because it shows how well adjusted he is now. Also, looks like the barista is charmed.]

[Well adjusted? Yes he probably is. It helps that the Throne of Heroes teaches you most of the basics before sending you out into your Master's world. Granted, this isn't the right world, so some of the rules do not apply.

But a knight is ever a man who changes, all the better to serve his lord.]

There is no need to thank me. It is my pleasure.

[The barista gets over their fluster quickly and gets to work on their order.]

And honestly, this sort of thing is delightful too. Going out for a cup of coffee as they say. So much fun!

[She enjoys it! Watching him while he's doing the best he can. Sure, it's a different world, but he's still managing. He's well dressed, he's having fun. She can tell by how he shines when he orders.

Although, he's often always sunny so maybe that's just him.]

Well, you're still treating me. [So she's grateful, and kind of feeling a little pampered. Especially after the barista scuttles away once they snapped out of it.]

It's a simple past time, but very enjoyable. It allows us to focus more on each other as well.

[He's always had a sort of natural charisma, one that's made it easy for people to like him. It's one of the many blessings he was born with.

And he enjoys the benefits of it, such as when it comes to charming a lovely lady. And impressing her, since she doesn't seem jealous at least.]

That it does. As pleasant as dinner and a show is, there is something about this that is almost better. It feels... more intimate somehow. Despite us being out in public.

[It's true, she's just in deep admiration of what he's like here, how he's easily making others admire him. She doesn't really feel jealous because as an immortal, it's not something she should. Time passes, and others deserve all the happiness they can get.

So here she is, looking nothing of the sort. But definitely curious about what is going to happen.]

I do believe this. Perhaps because we are allowed our own space. We really did have to keep quiet last time, no?

But we failed pretty miserably at it, didn't we?

[He couldn't help but laugh at the thought, because Gawain was wondering how they hadn't been shushed the whole time they were there.]

Not that I mind. Etiquette is important, but so is good conversation.

We did, and I am usually respectful of the space and the silence. You're an awful temptation.

[She blushes a little before pushing her hair behind her ear.] It was a surprise.

[And then laughs a little softly after.] I guess next time, we can do home movies instead. It would let us talk freely if we needed something to entertain us at the same time.

[An awful temptation? How wicked of her!

But he just laughs in return and nods.]

I would like that. I think it would be more comfortable for both us and allow for other indulgences.

[And what are you implying sir?]

[Except he's the wicked one!! Being a temptation!

Well, now she blushes rather hard since his implications! Are also a temptation!]

Indeed, it would allow us a lot more freedom. In private spaces.

[HELP.]

[Oh he's possibly going too far again, but he can't help it.]

Yes private and intimate spaces. For closeness.

[Okay he's actually feeling a bit flustered himself. Fortunately, the coffee is ready!
Thank goodness!]
