Who: Lilo Pelekai and Zepar.
What: Coffee!
When: Thursday evening.
Where: The coffeshop where Zepar works.
Warnings: Swearing, probably nothing else.



Lilo had gone to visit her parents and the younger version of Cassie, and was still wandering around the streets of London. Gabriel wasn't off of his shift at the hospital yet, and she didn't want to go home to the empty house. The day was warm but not hot, and she smiled as she ducked into a coffee shop. It smelled fantastic, which was always a good sign. Furthermore, it wasn't super busy, which was another good sign. Who wanted mass produced coffee?

She got into the queue, humming a little to herself as she thought about what she wanted.

Zepar was at the register, humming along with Storm Large over the shop's speakers, just leaning against the counter and watching people passing by outside. He straightened, smiling at her, "Well hello there, you know what you want? Or even better: do you know what you like? I can mix and match."

"Well, I like lots of things." She smiled at him, chewing on her lip as she looked at the menu. "Coffee. Chocolate. Bacon. ... okay, yeah, I'll have an iced mint mocha and one of those doughnuts with bacon onnit. I'm glad you have those, they're amazing." She beamed and bounced a little; the promise of bacon always pleased her.

"Bacon mocha, really not one of our best sellers." He said, smiling crookedly, "What size would you like that? Big, bigger, or huge?" Valiantly he was not letting his eyes wander anywhere lower than her neck, but it was a losing battle and even he knew it.

"Huge, please." She fished around in her purse for her wallet, smiling a little to herself. She was pleased with her coffee shop find for the time being, and hoped that the coffee would live up to the service.

"Huge iced mint mocha, bacon doughnut, anything else? Would you like the doughnut warmed up?" He was buttonmashing on the register as he spoke, just to make sure he had everything in order.

"Sure, thank you!" She smiled and left him a huge tip in the tip jar on the counter, tipping him about as much as she was paying for her stuff. If the coffee sucked today, maybe it wouldn't in the future if people knew she was a great tipper.

He tossed the doughnut into the microwave as he went about making the coffee, he was quick at it, he'd landed in the job when he arrived, but he'd made the most of it since, "You want this for here or for the road?"

"Here, please!" She grinned and moved to pick out a seat, swinging her legs when she realized the stools were high enough to do so.

"You got it." He said, grinning, setting the plate in front of her along with a napkin, and a fork, just in case. The coffee came next, expertly layered and with a drink umbrella, just because, "There you go, and there's really no way for me to say this without sounding like a creep, but your rack is awesome, in the original sense of the word."

She was still swinging her legs, and she smiled at the umbrella. She plucked it out of the drink and sucked off the coffee before wiping it on her napkin. Her fingers were deftly tucking it into her hair when he mentioned her boobs. "Oh, you think? They mostly just knock stuff over." She poked one, grumbling as it wobbled.

He nodded, "Yeah, I think so, they're just this side of perfect, I think." A shrug, "I can see how they'd get in the way though."

He offered a hand then, "Zepar, and feel free to tell me to stop being creepy, I'm used to it."

"I guess you couldn't tell unless I flashed you." She shrugged, not mentioning how she wasn't about to do that. But his name took her off guard. Since she loved an angel, she'd been reading a lot about all of them, and that had been in her opinion the coolest angelic name. "Grigori, right? I'm Lilo."

He was a little startled by that, but he took it in stride a moment later, "Yeah, one of those." His brow arched, "Not many people know that, I'm impressed."

"I was reading a book, and I thought you had the coolest name out of all of them. Not many things start with the letter z, you know." She grinned, taking a sip of her mocha. "Mmph, this is good."

He laughed softly at that, "Names with Zs and with Qs are some of the most fun. And good, glad you like it."

"I figured since I'm engaged to one of your... well, I guess he wouldn't be a sibling, more of a cousin really, I should know his family. Though I don't think there's not that many of you here, huh." She offered him a sip of her drink, smiling cheerfully.

He waved off the offer, "I'm good, I've got more caffeine than blood at the moment. Don't want to turn into one of those little windup toys."

His head tilted then, trying to recall who else was around, "I'm really bad at keeping in touch, who'd you manage to pin down?"

"Oh, please, I'm sure you are already." She grinned and blew bubbles in her drink as she swung around in her seat. "Gabriel, why? And you should talk to your family more."

There was a quick smile at the first, "Something like that, maybe, sometimes." He gave a slight shrug at the rest, "That whole being banished thing makes family reunions kind of tricky. Gabe's ... He's a good guy, just don't tell him I said so, I'll never hear the end of it."

"Why're you banished? He's being friends with people, why wouldn't he be with you?" She rolled her eyes and continued spinning.

"I was, once upon a time, but that's the kind of thing that you don't just get over." He shrugged, "Which is more on me than on him, I know."

"Well, you should come over for lunch or something sometime. Just don't poke my boobs, he'll get grumpy." She smirked and poked him in the chest.

Another grin, "I don't poke anybody's boobs without anything less than an engraved invitation, not even ones as awesome as yours."

"Good, 'cause I'd punch you." She smiled and took another big swig of her drink, still blowing bubbles.

He laughed outright, though it was a friendly sound, "Yeah, you look like you've got a pretty hefty right hook."

"Right cross, and yeah." She grinned, ruffling his hair. "Taught by pirates. "I'm scary!"

He grumbled contentedly, leaning into the hair-ruffling, he really was just an overgrown housecat most of the time, "Yeah, terrifying, I can tell that already."

"I bite, too." She grinned and hugged him, amused. "You're almost my cousin in law sort of."

"We can go with 'cousin'" He said with a nod, "Makes things easier in the long run, really."

"Works for me." She sighed, holding out her chest. "Go ahead and poke 'em. Once, though, and this is all you get."

"I'm okay just ogling, I swear." And he really was, he was actually kind of a fan of 'look but don't touch'

"Good." She started to eat her doughnut, making happy nom noises as she chewed. "Mmph. Totally coming here every time I visit my parents."

The serene smile was back, "Good, we like having regulars." A shrug, "Really, most of our customers are regulars, and the occasional lost tourist."

"It's the best way to be, you can keep quality high and avoid annoying people. Hey, do you know how to swim?" She wondered if not knowing how was an angelic thing.

(Reply to this)

"Yeah." He said, brow furrowing, "Why do you ask?" Because that was an interesting question.

"Gabey didn't for a while. If you come over for dinner, we can go swimming too. My house is on the beach. I'm a surfer." She shrugged a little, folding her legs under her so she was crosslegged.

"I think it comes from the fact that I've been down here longer than he has. At least, in theory." He shrugged, "Surfing though, noble profession."

"Probably! And I don't think it really is, but I love it!" She smiled and sadly slurped the bottom of her drink.

He smiled at the slurping, "You want another? Or would that be too much coffee in your system?"

"No such thing, cousin!" She saluted him, beaming, giving the entirely correct impression that she was sweet and permabouncy.

"The same?" He asked with a laugh, already readying the espresso machine, "Or try something new?"

"Surprise me," she grinned, waggling her eyebrows. She ruffled her hair, amused at him already.

"Now you're just asking for trouble." He said, but he was smiling, and it didn't take him long to throw the next drink together, "One of the other baristas came up with it." He said, "She calls it Angry Pele. Dark chocolate mocha with cinnamon syrup in the bottom and hibiscus tea leaves on top."

Lilo was flattered that he would think to give it to her, and she sipped it near reverently. "Think this is my new favorite drink. Thank you so much."

A smile, "I'll have to tell her you like it. It's not on the board, but it's in the book." He pointed to a photo album beside the register, though instead of photographs in the slip-sleeves, it had index cards with drink recipes on them.

"You really should put it up." She sighed contentedly, curled up close to herself. She liked how cosy the shop was, and she felt right at home.

"It'll probably go up for the summer menu. Most of the ones with cinnamon do." He shrugged, "Or the ones that are vacation destinations. We usually do themes like that on the board."

"That sounds nice!" She grinned and hopped off of the seat. "So, here, let me write my address down for you. You can come over whenever, just let me or Gabey know when." She found a SHarpie in her purse and jotted her address down on his hand.

(Reply to this)

He grinned, "I'll definitely drop you a line first. And you're welcome back anytime. Like I said, we like our regulars."
