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.

Are there any cats at the cafe you have your eye on?

[This is a much safer conversation topic.]

[aceofcrows]

One of them is pregnant...

[shootykawa]

Gross!

[aceofcrows]

It's not gross! She's a beautiful girl and the babies will be adorable!

[shootykawa]

You're not going to watch are you? All kinds of weird goo comes out with babies. And sometimes the moms poop too!

[aceofcrows]

It's not that bad. It's just the placenta and stuff.

[shootykawa]

[Makes all kinds of gagging noises]

[aceofcrows]

[sighs]

You don't have to be there. I'm just... really excited to see the babies...

[shootykawa]

Maybe when they're cute and not all... gooey.

[aceofcrows]

They're only gooey until they're cleaned up, and the mama usually does that as soon as they're born. If she doesn't, the owner or I will help clean them up.

[shootykawa]

[He shudders.]

Don't make me help with that and we're fine.

[aceofcrows]

I won't.

[shootykawa]

So did you really just invite me up here for tea? There's really nothing else you want from me?

[aceofcrows]

Yes? What else would I want?

[shootykawa]

Me to corrupt you.

[aceofcrows]

I hadn't thought of it.

[shootykawa]

I won't do anything you're not comfortable with, don't worry. But if you did want to kiss it would be fine by me.

[aceofcrows]

Oh.

[shootykawa]

Are you sure you had a boyfriend before? Did he not want to kiss you too?

[aceofcrows]

Not the first day!

[shootykawa]

Mmm, I bet he did, he was just letting you be shy.

[aceofcrows]

[he reddens and covers his face]

He was my friend...

[shootykawa]

... Is he not still your friend?

[He doesn't know how bad their breakup was.]

[aceofcrows]

Of course he is!

I-I just mean... w-we didn't... it wasn't... fast.

[shootykawa]

I get it. You're like a particularly good dessert, you want to eat it up as fast as you can, but it's smarter to go slow and savor it. I've never been particularly good at that though.
