[....???]

Er... That's not it?

[trainwrecking]

Ah... No. I'm always going to do something else while it steeps. Sometimes I even let it get cold...

[And then it's gross. Oops.]

[saving_sound]

I--

It gets cold-?!

[OTONASHI HOW COULD YOU......]

[trainwrecking]

O-only sometimes!

[WHAT?! At least he's honest!!]

Other times I... just forget about it entirely and clean it up, or it just doesn't taste quite as good.

[GOOD JOB. A+. 5 STARS.]

[saving_sound]

[TH-THAT POOR TEA...]

Erm... Do you just don't like it that much...?

[IT'S NOT TOO LATE SHE CAN STILL MAKE YOU COFFEE IF YOU WANT.......]

[trainwrecking]

N-no! I like tea! But... ah, with coffee I can just get it out of a vending machine or set it up and forget about it...

[HIBIKI NO IT'S OKAY.]

Sometimes I... you know, make iced coffee! It just doesn't work as well with oversteeped cold tea...

[He can feel the worry. And then he just ends up feeling judged and lazy. WHUPS.]

[saving_sound]

I can make iced coffee too if you want. Um, I'm not sure if the coffee here is very good, but...!

[WORRY WORRY FRET.]

[trainwrecking]

No, no, please! I can have coffee anytime!

[HIBIKI HONEY...]

Look, see, I already learned something today!

[Even if he already had a feeling his tea habits were less than stellar. Ah well.]

[saving_sound]

I-if you're sure...

[Although she tries to stay optimistic, there's a noticeable lack of the previous energy as she continues. It's convenient that the water's heated up, at least.]

Um... You put the leaves into the teapot first, and then pour the water in... I think it makes the water a little cooler so that it tastes better when you drink it, too.

[trainwrecking]

Ahh... see, I just did it straight out of the kettle. I never bothered having a proper teapot...

[He really, really wants to be supportive.]

So, um... Just curious, but do you just keep coffee for guests?

[saving_sound]

Um... sort of?

[After a short series of events, it might as well be for guests now. She'll go ahead and replace the lid to the teapot once she's finished pouring in the water over the leaves.]

[trainwrecking]

You're not supposed to have too much caffeine, that's all...

[There it is. Though it makes him a huge hypocrite to point out caffeine intake, he still worries.]

Ah, hey-- do you mind if I pour the cups?

[saving_sound]

I got some to try, but I can't drink it. It's just too bitter for me, I'm afraid.

[But it's nice to keep around in case a guest doesn't like tea!]

Oh! Sure, that's fine!

[trainwrecking]

Yeah, it takes some getting used to... I like mine best when it's sweetened. Key's special blend is great too.

[But he could go on all day about good coffee and bad coffee. To avoid that, he sets up the cups and gently tips the teapot, pouring a modest amount in each.]

Do you happen to have honey?

[saving_sound]

Ah-- Key is the brand I got, too!

[What a coincidence!]

Yes! I'll go get it if you'd like-!

[The container is thankfully within easy reach on one of the counters - it seems she's used to people asking for it at times.]

Here you go!

[trainwrecking]

Ah, really? Was it a dark roast or a light roast?

[And does she know the difference?]

Thanks. I like it sometimes, it depends on my mood... Do you want some, Hibiki?

[saving_sound]

...Ummm...

[Judging by the sudden blank look on her face, it seems she has no idea.]

I-I'm... not sure. Er-- About the coffee, I mean! But I don't need honey for my tea.

[trainwrecking]

Ah... don't worry about it. If you want, I'll take a look just in case someone else asks.

[So she doesn't have to make such a lost face...]

Shall we sit? Though, maybe I should get going... [Imposing would be a very bad thing.]

[saving_sound]

It's not too much trouble?

[She really has no idea about the coffee she bought other than the fact that it's much too bitter for her.]

Oh- Are you too busy right now? I don't mind if you stay longer, but I don't want to keep you here if you have other things you have to do!

[trainwrecking]

Of course not. It might even say it on the container..!

[He shakes his head.]

I'm not busy, but I don't want to keep you either. The only plans I had, uh... the others cancelled on me.

[saving_sound]

It's fine! I have the rest of today off, and I think Shii-chan is still napping.

[Considering they haven't had a small homunculus come running in on them yet...]

Umm... Cancelled, though...?

[trainwrecking]

Yeah. Hinata seems to cancel on me all the time these days, and some of the others only come along when he's with me.

[Like Noda or Fujimaki. Noda would have him, but not in the way he'd enjoy, of course...]

So I've got nothing going on, unless I want an earful of fangirling about GirlDeMo or a talk about the importance of meaningful love confessions as told by Ooyama.

[saving_sound]

Really? But... Hinata-san is such a close friend. He must be really busy if he can't meet up with you very much!

[trainwrecking]

Uh... yeah. Haha, you really do have so much faith in everyone.

[He sips off the tea, which brings the tiniest smile to his face. Her tea really is great...]

Cancelling every time or never being around usually means something else, though.

[saving_sound]

[...???]

Something else?

[What on earth could it be...?]
