Yeah, some people suck. [ he comes right out to say it. ] Or don't think it's worth trying. Maybe they don't have things or people to try for. But, uh. Thanks, I think. It's not really a thing I'm doing to be admirable. It's just...what I want to do.
Shenhe. [she says, firmly, confidently.] Someone said to me that they wished they would have met me under better circumstances, earlier today. I extend that sentiment to you.
[ he looks a little surprised at the offer. probably because he's spent a good majority of today talking to people for information to figure out teams and less about the getting to know you part.
come to think of it. food isn't a bad idea right now. it's been a while. ]
...yeah, sure. We have the fine dining of McDonald's or Swedish cuisine ala IKEA to choose from. [ his expression falters a little then. ] Except you...probably don't know what either of those are, but uh. Pick what sounds more interesting?

Perhaps we can try the IKEA.
