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.

[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.

[aceofcrows]

[he grins]

Ah... sure. Are you working nearby too?

[shootykawa]

I will be. My new job starts soon, but it's... I can't really talk about it.

[aceofcrows]

Ah... that's okay. You just moved back then?

[shootykawa]

Yeah, it's... nice to be back.

[aceofcrows]

Are you and Iwaizumi still together?

[shootykawa]

No. He broke up with me.

[aceofcrows]

O-oh... I'm... sorry.

[shootykawa]

It's okay. He was right, it never would have worked out. And now I'm meeting new people and taking them to dinner. It's okay.

[It's still painful, but Oikawa is forcing a smile.]

[aceofcrows]

[he doesn't think that's right, but... he can't really say anything either. They're really not that close...]

[shootykawa]

I've moved on, don't worry about it.

[aceofcrows]

Ah... mm... when did... it happen?

[shootykawa]

Eight months ago.

[Around the time Oikawa stopped playing volleyball, if Asahi follows those sorts of things.]

[aceofcrows]

Ah... I'm sorry.

[he watches volleyball, but he hasn't followed everyone he used to know closely]

[shootykawa]

Like I said, it's okay. I'm over it.

[That is a lie, but it's one he's going to stick with, damn it.]

[aceofcrows]

... If there's anything I can do... [weak smile] Ah... well you know where to find me, I guess.
