HAHA. royce would think water counted, at least the first time rofl, but he really plays that by the bartender, with her he'll play the 'say whatever drink his eyes land on first' game. ;) awww, i love sly comebacks and royce would like that she was sassy and tough, and he definitely needs someone who won't sugar coat or lie to him. i think he has...quite a few liars in his life so he really values honesty? it sounds like royce would really like her! he doesn't mind petty either. and he could be a good listener for her back.
depending on when she became a frequent patron, it's possible they might have known each other then first. royce moved to seattle in 2014. he left in 2016 and he came back in july of this year. he also spends a LOT of time in los angeles, so they have that place in common too and we could do something there. ROYCE CANNOT DO ANY OF THOSE THINGS, he's not handy or computer savvy, so he would love to have a friend who could do those things. as a friend, royce has a sense of humor and he's pretty mellow and reliable. most of his friendships are pretty shallow and surface level but he's ride or die for the ones that aren't. he's also really competitive too, so...they could have a lot of fun challenging each other at things!
