Ah-- no, um. I got a little overwhelmed, you see, and bought several, but then I couldn't decide which you might like best, so... I arranged them all in a box so you could try them all.
[He smiles, drumming his fingers on the table between them.]
You're welcome, and I'm glad. It was truly a learning experience, but now I've a bit of a personal interest in it. Perhaps I'll have you give me some lessons, sometime.
[Momo, of course, is jazzed about this. Because look. So many people support her and her strange interests, but few even consider trying to share them.]
Don't get too excited-- I'm afraid I can't drink very much of it, myself, so my interest can only go so far. I'm very sensitive to caffeine, but... Well, I figured, if it's something you're so passionate about, it certainly couldn't hurt to do some reading.
Are there? I had read of an... African, I believe it was, plant called-- ... [He makes a face while he tries to remember how to say the word.] Rooibos? But I couldn't entirely conclude through what little research I'd done if it was formally a tea or not. [Please teach him, Momo-sensei. Get it, tea-ch.]

[Please let him spoil you, Momo.]
no subject
[But she accepts it.]
We'll have to try it sometime, soon. Together.

[Without classes, he was probably going slightly stir-crazy.]
no subject
[She...is a special case.]

[She slides her finger down the menu.]
Avocado toast, and let's try their local tea?
no subject
Do you have any other plans for the day?
no subject
[And she wasn't the type to try and wheedle it out of her.]
no subject
I'm sure she'll have something delightful in store for you.
no subject
[Ironically Momo has the delightful stuff in mind.]
She's...been really good to me lately.
no subject
[His smile remains.]
That is excellent to hear.
no subject
Yeah. She's...got a lot of good energy. I'm glad we're getting this time together.
no subject
As am I. Strange as the circumstances may be, and loathe as I am to personally take vacations, this feels a bit like a very unorthodox one.
no subject
Even if I wish we were back at school.
no subject
I am the same. The lack of structure to my day without classes is... befuddling.

[He looks over the box of tea.]
...Compiling tea, for the past many days. I had no idea it was such a versatile thing.
no subject
[SHOCK.]

Ah-- no, um. I got a little overwhelmed, you see, and bought several, but then I couldn't decide which you might like best, so... I arranged them all in a box so you could try them all.
[And he had an entire conniption over it, too.]
no subject
Again, thank you. I'm truly touched.
