[ It had worked once before, back in the heat of late summer in Asgard, so Jade was trying it again. She had dragged the sign out to the front of the store, right in the middle of the sidewalk, and written in huge letters:

free hot chocolate! :D
just come inside ♥

The temperature hadn't broken the sixty degree mark today - it was getting chilly fast. Both Orihime and Annabeth were gone, and the store was oddly quiet. Jade will be found keeping herself busy throughout the day with odd little chores when it's completely empty of customers - sweeping, dusting, and occasionally dozing in a booth near the door when the boredom becomes too much to bear. ]

Because it's true!!!

[Nepeta giggles as she presses her hands in hers, swinging their arms back and forth together.]

That's furry kind of you to offer, I'll remember! [Though it really would take more than a killer robot to seriously hurt him.] It's been a while now, a little more than a sweep, I think?

[lethechained]

Should have figured you'd say that, too.

[She's giggling, too, studying the motion a moment before mimicking it.]

I'll be prepared, then, in case you do call. [Still, better safe than sorry, right?] Huh...! That's... a long time, isn't it? [She has to take a moment to think back on what she knows of troll phrasing.] So you know each other well, then?

[bestestfurrend]

Pfft, you know me too well already.

[She doesn't make it sound like a bad thing at all, though.]

It's...around two human years? I think? And we were friends before that too! So I think we do know each other pretty well, and even better now that we see each other in person all the time. It just wasn't the same over trollian.

[lethechained]

Hee...! Maybe so.

[She doesn't think it is, either.]

That is a long time. [Gosh.] It's great that you've been able to stay together. Wasn't that hard, only being able to speak long distance? [Because she's trying to imagine having that sort of situation and it's not particularly appealing.]

[bestestfurrend]

I suppaws it is! It doesn't feel like it, though. But it was hard, sometimes, because we couldn't get to know each other as well as we'd like to. And it was hard to know what Equius was really thinking as well, he was so bossy. I used to be a little scared of him! But now I know I never needed to be.

[lethechained]

I was only with-- [... Nope. She's just going to... stop that sentence right there and leave it be. She shakes her head slightly, briefly, then,] I'm sure...! Communicating from a distance always seems to make it so hard to be clear or learn all the little things about people. ...! Scared? [Hm.] Well, it's good that you aren't, anymore. I guess relationships always go through that sort of stage - it can be very troubling, not being sure what someone else really means or what their intentions are.

[bestestfurrend]

...I know. I'm sorry, I didn't mean it like that. I just meant that when you're happy together, time goes by too fast!

[Nepeta giggles.] Scared! He'd tell me what to do and sound so determined and angry sometimes. But he's a big softy really [no, he isn't, he just lets Nepeta push him around now] and we understand each other very well!

[lethechained]

[She shakes her head, offers a little smile that's a bit strained at the edges but not insincere.] Yes, of course. It really does.

Hee...! I see. I guess that's part of why he needs you. [Man, such cuties.] I've known a few softies, myself. It's always sort of sweet, you know?

It sounds like the two of you make a very nice pair. [And she's happy for them.]

[bestestfurrend]

[It kills Nepeta that there's nothing she can do for her with Sollux.]

It really is, although I'd nefur call him that to his face. He'd be so mad! [She smiles and nuzzles again Namine.] I think we do too. I hope we'll both be together forever.

[lethechained]

[Nepeta's too much of a darling not to be concerned; Naminé's well aware of that, and mentally she makes a note to try very hard not to let things slip like that again.]

Aw-- [It's half at the comment and half at the nuzzling.] But I've always thought that was a good thing. Not that he would, of course. [Even though it's kind of funny to imagine.] I hope so, too. Maybe you will - at least since you know each other from home, too. I wish you all the luck in the worlds. I... think you deserve to be happy, Nepeta.
