Cat Cafe AU

[aceofcrows]

Welcome to the cat cafe -- Coffee and Cats!

It's a quiet, well-run cat cafe featuring a half dozen permanent residents and another half dozen adoptable cats. The coffee is good, fresh, and prompt, and the sole employee is ... well... he looks a bit like he should be in a gang with his height, long hair, and goatee. However, he's incredibly gentle, shy, and absolutely wonderful with cats and small children. (Even if he's afraid he will break something.)

Come in, find a seat, and enjoy the atmosphere. Open from 11am to 2pm and 6pm to 9pm every day.

Excellent.

[He orders when they're ready and then puts all his attention on Asahi.]

Do you still play volleyball?

[aceofcrows]

A recreational league at the park, only. I help the coach out sometimes too.

[shootykawa]

What sort of help? I never got the sense that you were the mastermind behind any Crow tactics, but that might be because the only time I saw real tactics from you they were almost certainly coming from Kageyama.

[The way he says "Kageyama" makes it clear there's still some resentment there.]

[aceofcrows]

[he shrugs, flushing as his smile falters]

Spiking, receives, serves. Anything I can. I may have graduated, but... I'm still close with the team and the school.

[shootykawa]

I do seem to remember you have a mean spike, I should watch out for your team.

[He's trying to recover that. His weird jealousy issues with Kageyama shouldn't ruin a nice conversation.]

[aceofcrows]

[his eyes widen in surprise]

You play too?

[shootykawa]

[He blushes a little.]

I mean, sometimes. I don't really have a team to play with...

[aceofcrows]

[he grins]

You can come with me sometime.

[shootykawa]

Are you sure you want me to? What will the other players think?

[aceofcrows]

Ah... well... some of them might remember you from high school. I'm not the only one from Karasuno.

[shootykawa]

Really?

[He's so much less likely to go now. Also, he's extra embarrassed that this conversation took that turn.]

[aceofcrows]

[he laughs holding up a hand]

No one holds the old rivalries anymore... Except Daichi, but I think he only does it for form's sake.

[shootykawa]

You still play with him? I can't imagine I would be welcome, then.

[aceofcrows]

[his face turns serious and he frowns slightly]

I'm inviting you, so you're welcome.

[shootykawa]

[Oikawa doesn't have a response to that so he looks down for a second.]

Thank you.

[aceofcrows]

[he takes a deep breath and lets it out slowly]

... We may have been on opposing teams, but we're not enemies because of it.

[shootykawa]

No. I don't want to be your enemy. Or your former captain's for that matter.

[aceofcrows]

[he smiles warmly]

Good. Then it will be just fine. We're all there to have fun.

[shootykawa]

I do want to have fun with you.

[He means that in both pervy and non-pervy ways.]

[aceofcrows]

[only heard the non-pervy so he grins broadly]

Good.

[he pauses when the waitress brings their food]

[shootykawa]

This does look good, thank you for the suggestions.

[He's quiet and eating after that.]

[aceofcrows]

[he looks so happy about that ^_^ but he's okay with being quiet and eating for now]

[shootykawa]

Do you live close by?

[aceofcrows]

Yeah. Just a few blocks away.

[shootykawa]

I'm not too far, closer to the station though. I suppose you can see for yourself, after dinner.
