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.

What? No!

[aceofcrows]

[it might have been an "oh thank god" muttered into his hand as he covers his face]

[shootykawa]

Do you think I would?!?

[aceofcrows]

Well you said I should see it first in person! There's not much I haven't seen on the courts!

[shootykawa]

Okay... maybe true. But porn? I haven't sunk that low. I just meant it's supposed to be sexy but not full on arousing and maybe you would rather see me take some of my clothes off in private. Some!

[aceofcrows]

[snaps his jaw shut and blushes hard]

[shootykawa]

[Oikawa doesn't notice this time because he's hiding his own head.]

How am I screwing this up so badly? I thought things would be easier starting from scratch but maybe I'm just doomed to screw up all my relationships, even ones that haven't started yet.

[aceofcrows]

What? Screwing it up? You're not? I think?

[shootykawa]

I made you think I would pose for porn, that is doing something wrong!

[aceofcrows]

[snorts and starts laughing]

At least you're not doing that.

[shootykawa]

Yeah but... I don't know what I'm doing.

[He means that in a lot of ways right now.]

[aceofcrows]

Working right? Making money? And... eating your crepe before it gets soggy.

[shootykawa]

What am I going to do when I'm not pretty anymore?

[He takes a bite of his crepe and gets whipped cream on his face.]

[aceofcrows]

[he reaches over and wipes it off with his thumb. he licks it clean absently before shrugging]

I don't know, but you're going to have a long time to figure it out.

[shootykawa]

... Do you think I'm pretty?

[He needs validation, so so much.]

[aceofcrows]

Well, yeah.

[shootykawa]

Really?

[He's taking this very seriously.]

[aceofcrows]

Yeah. You always did kind of stand out on the court.

[shootykawa]

[He turns and wraps an arm around Asahi, he needs a hug right now, but he's trying not to smush crepe on either of them.]

[aceofcrows]

[surprised, but he returns the squeeze lightly]

[shootykawa]

Sorry. I keep trying to be cool for you and then end up being too emotional and real.

[aceofcrows]

[leans forward to bonk his forehead against Oikawa's]

I like you being real. I don't need you to be cool for me.

[shootykawa]

[He makes a startled sound and looks down.]

But... how else am I supposed to impress you?

[aceofcrows]

[he chuckles softly]

You did that years ago when you were our rivals on the court.

[shootykawa]

That's different than impressing you as a good boyfriend though.
