[ it is not fine. none of this is fine. ]

I'm not worried.

[ he grabs an assortment of supplements for the coffee—sugar, milk, the works. then he grabs a pair of cups, pours the finished brew into them, and offers one to stephanie. ]

It's been a while. I don't know how you like your coffee.

[vigilantics]

It's fine, I won't force you to ruin it with your own two hands.

[ he seems like the kind of guy who might drink it as Pure as possible??

meanwhile, steph is gonna add both milk and sugar. ]

[melancoffeea]

[ ?

he stares for a moment, unsure of what she means, before he adds sugar himself. countless years of practice have improved the taste of his brew. enjoy. ]

[vigilantics]

Hm. You seemed like the kind of thing who'd take it black and strong.

[melancoffeea]

I do, sometimes.

How is yours?

[vigilantics]

It's pretty good.

[ she takes another sip. ]

It's kind of funny how no matter how different all our different worlds can be, we still have similarities like this.

[melancoffeea]

[ . . . okay. he'll bite. ]

I suppose it is. How did coffee originate in your world?

[vigilantics]

I think it came about a couple of centuries ago? Somewhere in Asia.

[ she pauses. ]

Or Africa? I don't think historians are exactly sure which.

[melancoffeea]

I see . . . A couple of centuries, huh. It's history is rather young.

[vigilantics]

It could be older, but I think that's as far as recorded history goes.

What about you?

[melancoffeea]

Who knows? All I can say is that I first tasted coffee two thousand years ago.

[ he is a senior citizen. ]

[vigilantics]

Ah.

How old are you again?

[melancoffeea]

Mm? About as old as that time. Why?

[vigilantics]

...

What's your skincare plan?

[melancoffeea]

[ all he does for a moment is stare, clearly unimpressed by the question. then he smirks. ]

Inertia.

[vigilantics]

[ ... ]

Ha.

[ she can tell this is a joke even if she doesn't get it. ]

[melancoffeea]

[ but is it really? he lets out an amused snort. ]

I was simply created this way—though I suppose doing nothing for so long helped to maintain my current appearance.

[ in an ordinary mortal, would consuming copious amounts of coffee ruin one's skin? ]

[vigilantics]

[ please be a joke ]

Do you ever get bored?

[melancoffeea]

[ his entire existence is a joke. ]

I'm used to it. You seem more accustomed to activity than I ever was.

[vigilantics]

I'm pretty bad at staying still.

[ which she has

proven many times in grimm itself. ]

[melancoffeea]

[ yeah, she was more active than half the castle with just one leg. ]

What do you do?

[ normally. what does someone like stephanie do under ordinary circumstances? backgrounds were so varied in the castle. he doesn't even know where to start with anyone. ]
