Where: COFFEE!
Rating: Low

Jan loved coffee. Well, she actually probably loved all the sugar and cream and whipped topping and caramel and everything else she dumped into it back at home. She had been so disturbed to find she didn't care for the black version Kate and Clint offered, but it seemed people had been able to bring back some cream and sugar with them post-convention and keep them fully stocked. It wasn't quite a caramel macchiato, but Jan was at least able to pour as much sugar into her mug as she wanted. Which was probably more than her daily allotment, but it really helped with the taste!

Jan had been waiting for her new friend to arrive, a cup sitting beside her, waiting for him too. Kate had already brought them what they needed, saying if they wanted a second cup to call her. Jan had a feeling she was just sneaking more cups herself in some kind of secret stash. Still, she couldn't blame her; the espresso machine she and Clint had been able to find was pretty lucky. She had heard a rumor that they had been able to get almost all the miniature coffee pots from the convention hotel as they could get their hands on. Jan wanted to know why her room didn't have one yet.

As the door opened, Jan turned to see if it was him. She grinned, not recognizing the person so it was probably him, right? "Are you my stunning date?" she asked, giving him a once over. He was pretty stunning, in that kinda of 90s, acid trip kinda way. She liked him.

She patted the seat next to her, inviting him in. "Hope you enjoy your coffee black because I took most of today's sugar ration." She held up a half-full sugar container with a sheepish smile. "I'm Jan, by the way. It's nice to meet you...?" She looked over at him for introductions.

Klaus | Jan :: Coffee Date

"For me?" Klaus asked raising an eyebrow and shrugged, "Never met one that I didn't love." He'd try anything at least once, and had in most cases and if it got him fucked up then it was a keeper. "But everyone is different, if one doesn't work for you it doesn't mean others will be the same way." For a guy who was attempting to be sober a lot of his conversations ended up back here - but it was something he knew a lot about he supposed and why not? It wasn't like there was any saving the world to do here, who would it hurt if he wanted to get a little high.

Jan was interesting, Klaus decided. Still a lot like his first impression, but there were depths to her and that he could appreciate. That and she seemed to actually want to talk to him and not just humor him as they got to know one another a little bit better. Her story of how she'd ended up here was interesting too, graduation day - and going out to save the world, it was like she'd gone to some super hero school, which he supposed maybe he had too in a way - you know if a super hero school was your dad locking you in mausoleums to help you control your powers. "That does sound like a weird serendipitous moment." He agreed though, because it was, he didn't have the same sort of serendipity to his arrival though, so maybe that was just a Jan thing.

"Sirius, he's a wizard." Klaus still thought that was pretty amazing, you know powers were cool and all, but magic was definitely better. He could only imagine how much better he'd have done in life if he'd gotten magic rather than his questionably useful sort of power.

"I was trying to make a jump through time with my siblings and then suddenly I was here and they were not." But Sirius had been there and Klaus was willing to wait around and see where all of this lead for the time being, he deserved a break after everything they'd been through after all.

"Wanna show me your shop?" He asked, because she had one, she'd mentioned it when they'd first started talking and well Klaus wanted to see what passed for fashion here in Jan's eyes. Especially since they both seemed to have sadly reached the bottoms of their cups.

Jan made an uncertain face and shrugged her shoulders. "But then you have to try all of them and what if one like, totally messes with my mind?" She tapped the side of her head as if she had important knowledge up there. Which she did! She had so many birthday's to remember, as well as a list of things she wanted to keep an eye out for her shop, Tony's password so she can smuggle his phone when she needed it, plus an additional 10,000 other things she couldn't really prioritize at the moment. She didn't know a lot about drug use or what was safe or how to do it, but she was curious. She just wondered if Klaus was the right person to trust. But that was the whole point of 20 questions anyway and, to be honest, she was digging him. He wasn't like some of the people she usually hung out with at school, but he kind of reminded her of Bucky. Except less musical.

"Do you sing? Or play an instrument?" she asked suddenly, almost interrupting the conversation they were already having. Because as soon as she had asked it, she registered what he had been telling her, which was the answer to her first question...or the question that had been before this one. "Sirius!" She beamed. "I know him! He's actually the reason I opened my store! Really cool guy. Great accent. Really cute. I just wish I had been able to see more magic." Because really, the apparation was NOT fun for her. She would have rather seen him turn into a duck or turn other people into ducks. At least they would have all been safe and not all creepy like as they had been, staring them down. Jan shuddered remembering back to it.

"Aw, I'm sorry about your siblings." Jan gave him a sympathetic smile and a hand on his shoulder. "Maybe they'll still come through? Time portals can be tricky sometime." At least the theory was there, she hadn't actually done it herself. "Is that one of their powers? Time travel?" Because that was a pretty cool power.

But then he was asking about showing him her shop and she jumped at the opportunity. "Yeah! I don't know if you'll like anything there, but maybe you can do a few sketches and I can look for things next time I go out!" She placed her empty mug on the counter. "THANKS KATE!" she yelled before holding her arm out to Klaus.

"Shall we?"
