Re: Milkshakes: Dietre / Noah
[It wasn't that deep for Noah. Life was life, because life was always life, but he didn't have any words ringing dramatically in his ears. He was in a pretty good mood, actually. School was a couple weeks in and he was, like, a real teacher now, which was still weird, but he was getting a feel for it. So, he was feeling good about that. There was some other stuff too. And, even though he really didn't have any extra cash, it seemed the least he could do is buy someone a post-dump milkshake if they were going to be writing legit poetry on a city-wide forum. Considering the person's reaction, Noah didn't think it'd actually help, but... he was trying to get better at doing good deeds.
And, people were being real shady about the coffee stuff—some people going so far as to highkey hit on him (dudes, I mean), which made him more uncomfortable than he could even articulate; his sexuality wasn't like that—that he was just glad that this was an obviously not-romantic anything. It was a milkshake for some sad person to maybe make their day suck a little bit less, and, even if it wasn't ethical or whatever, according to Forum User Jamie M, to, like, know the waitresses and get a free milkshake, he'd known them all since he was a kid and he was going to get a free milkshake.
Noah was outside the diner in black, mostly just chilling and waiting. His hair, dark and fluffy, was blowing in the light evening wind, and he was fruitlessly trying to tame it. When he caught the shuffling, crestfallen, downtrodden form of a super pale, super skinny, morose-looking dude, he thought he'd found Forum User Dietre A. He had a dog too, which was cool. Noah loved dogs.—He smiled, and it was dopey and earnest and almost too wide for his face, as he came forward to drop into a crouch in front of the dog.] Hey, dudes. [If he was able, he scratched behind the dog's ears after letting her?/him? sniff him, and he smiled up at the Addams Family Cast Extra.] Who's this, man?
