Re: quicklog: Cerise S/Cris M
[The hesitance says a lot, and Cee doesn't ask for them again. She just nods like yeah, after. She doesn't like the idea, but she smiles regardless, like she's very used to smiling through things. Unliked things, ideas that aren't hers.] Sure...
[Zoe's talking about pancakes, and Cee rubs her eyes, suddenly tired. She steps down onto the curb again, fishes Zoe's princess backpack of babysitter oddities(fruit roll-ups and various Beanie Babies) from the backseat, and passes it off to Cris while Zoe askes what chiquita means, and in the same breath says she thinks it means bananas, and she doesn't like bananas.]
Once I get'a look at him, and we got his name, we'll have him. [Still smiling, voice pleasant like this wasn't inappropriate to talk about in front of a child. Cee kissed goodbye to the top of Zoe's puffy hat with a partial kneel, upward glance to Cris.] I'll message ya, 'kay? [And then she's already starting for the vehicle again.]
