@GreatNailsage She sips from her own cup, simultaneously leaning forward in intense curiosity of his opinion on the beverage.
Ack, hers is still hot-- she dabs her lips with a napkin and an awkward laugh.
"How is it? Do you like it?"
@GreatNailsage "Ehehe, they're not stones! They're marshmallows, and they're really soft! I-- I think they're made of sugar? I'm not actually sure...." She trails off, looking to the side awkwardly as she blows on her drink to cool it off.
"And cocoa comes from a plant? Um..."
@InkySlumber She's laughing too, embarrassed over all of the affection.
"I-I wouldn't know anything about what Felix plays - I've only seen them play those, uh, fighting games."
@GreatNailsage "A deposit?" she questions with a tilt of the head. The hot cocoa is in plentiful supply - enough so that their order is out without much of a wait at all. She hands off an open faced mug to him...
... of course there's marshmallows in it. "Don't burn your tongue!"
@GreatNailsage "Sort of! Coffee is bitter and cocoa is sweet! I guess you could say it does the opposite thing?" Still, she leads the way to the nearby café, going ahead an ordering drinks for the both of them.
"I've always preferred the sweet stuff myself, really!"
@GreatNailsage But you're so tiny, she thinks. And without ears.
She makes a mental note to procure a hat for Sly, so his antennae don't snap off when they freeze.
"Hehehe, not today - instead, how about I treat you to some hot chocolate? It'll warm you from the inside out!"
@GreatNailsage She's handled her fair share of bugs to know how to be gentle! ... She also doesn't know exactly what a geo is still either, so breaking anything is a little--
"Are you sure you're going to be alright through the winter if you stay awake? You might freeze out there!"
@GreatNailsage Gasp of /pure excitement/, twirling around to face Sly with about as much giddiness as you'd expect. In fact, she's about to scoop the bug into a hug.
"Sly! It really has been a while! Ooh, I've really missed you!"
Oh, she'll happily go puppeteerless for now - it's not as if a lot of the dangers are still around! She thinks.
Maybe they all went away along with Halloween... which she missed. It's okay, she couldn't find the mask.
It would've been in bad taste anyway.
