Cafe Coimbra

Aah. I can't believe I'm actually here drinking with you.
I KNOOW I have work to do, but I just couldn't pass now. -Takes a drink-

From:

-Pokes Labrusca's forhead-
Oh don't be upset, you'll get wrinkles~
and you need to take a break once in a while, in the afternoon too!

...And I know you love my company anyway. <3 -leans back on the chair and plays with the neck of the wine glass-

So, how'd this miracle happen anyway?

From:

My PA ran away. -___-

From:

... -blinks-

-smirks-
...
-bursts in laughter-

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, SERIOUSLY?
What is this, the 27th time?!
HAHAHAHA, you really should stop treating your PA's as pets you know~
Well, fine, knowing you, you just would, my dear sister. <3

-Dimidium sees a young boy enter the cafe. He smirks at him and leans his head towards the boy.-

Well, how 'bout him?

From:

Sandalphon sees Dimidium incline his head toward his direction, and vaguely recalls seeing his face somewhere before. He pauses and looks at him, blinking in confusion.

From:

You. -points at the young boy and with a finger, motions him to closer-

Mind coming here, dear?

From:

-snickers-

Hah, poor kid.

From:

Er...yes ma'am? Is there anything you wanted from me?

Sandalphon glances at Dimidium again, wondering where in the world he's seen this man before.

From:

Raph enters the cafe.
He sees Brusca, and walks over to her.

Hello. You wanted me to meet you?

From:

>To the young boy<
Why'd you come just now, hmm? You do know you're five minutes late.
-lightly grabs his collar but pulls with a harsh force-

Refill this, easy on the tequila.
-shoves the glass in his hands-
--
>To Raph<
Oh hey dear. <3 Yeah. -pulls Raph towards her-

From:

-eyes the young boy-
Aah, you're really considering it aren't you Brusca?

-sees Raph enter-
Hey Raphy~

From:

Sandalphon gives a small squeak and looks down at the glass in his hands, not knowing whether to escape or not.

Uhm, I think you mistook me for some other person. I was only here to get something...

From:

*whispers to Sandy* Better do as she says.

*pulls up a chair near Brusca while being pulled by her What's the occasion?

From:

>To the young boy<
-Brusca glared at him with her overpowering 'if you know what's good for you' way-
... now.

>To Raph<
Well, the fact I'm here should already be an occasion. I'm not working.
-crosses arms-

From:

He quietly whimpers, and goes up to the counter and explains to Lisa the current situation, and she gives him a pitying look while refilling the glass. He returns to them and sets the glass down in front of her

Er... Here you go?

Sandalphon glances at Raphael, giving him a look that says 'she's rather durnk, isn't she?'

From:

Raphael gives Sandy a look that says 'you haven't seen anything yet'

Brusca... be nice.

*nods at Dimidium* How are you doing?

From:

Not bad...
Thanks, honey.
-manages to reach for the young boy's head and pets him-

From:

>To Raph<
If you meant Val,
I've been doing... really good.
-Smiles after his own innuendo-

And you?

From:

*sweatdrops* Well, uh, no that's not exactly what I meant but, uh... *glaces at Brusca* ... yes, I've been doing fine too.

From:

Sandalphon perks up and suddenly realizes where he recognizes the black-haired wizard. He turns to Dimidium.

By 'Val' you mean Valerius, right? Valerius Beaunvoliant? I'm sorry it's just that you looked so familiar, and I couldn't quite place from where you were from, and oh I'm so sorry that I'm talking rather fast-

He coughs a little

By any chance, you are... Demalion, are you not?

From:

>Plants a light kiss on Raph's cheek<
Oh yes you have been. Glad you came. <3

>To Dimidium<
Hmm~ Don't tell me you and Val have orgies now, with... children?
-Takes a sip of margarita and catches a young man glance at her-

From:

>To Labrusca<
Oh come on, Val alone is much more satisfying than those boring orgies. <3

-Leans forward the table and rests his chin on his palm, eyeing the young man top to bottom-

The gorgeous, admirable, ravishing, and down right alluring one?
-laughs-
Yes, I am~ <3

Hmmm, you know Val eh?

From:

Sandalphon blinks, rather taken aback by the adjectives the other man used to describe himself. He shakes his head a little and fiddles with his coat collar, rendered rather uncomfortable by the stare.

Ah, Yes, Valerius- He's my cousin. I've seen you two together.
You- He pauses, not being able to find the proper words.

You're very close, aren't you...?

Sandalphon braces himself, hoping he didn't sound too presumptuous.

From:

Haha~ Really now?
-silently to himself-
...you both do share that delicious femininity.

-he presses his index finger to his lips-
Close...? Even more, dear.
-smirks-

From:

He takes a step back, shocked.

D-d-delicious femininity!?

He feels his face heating up, and attempts to cover the blush with his left hand, the other moving from fiddling with his collar to the end of his sleeve.

And-er-more than close, do you mean to say that you two are-

He didn't expect Valerius to be the type to gravitate towards men.

From:

Woops, did I say that aloud?
{amused, watching his face burn up}
---

-Dearest, how can he refuse someone like me?
Or rather... the opposite.

From:

Y-yes you did, Sir. He coughs, shaking his head a little to attempt and clear the blush from his face.

Ah, er, that's rather unexpected... I didn't think he was the type to like-

Sandalphon, quickly realizing what he was about to say, shut his mouth. He didn't want to cause trouble again.

From:

-models?
He has good taste doesn't he?
{a bit of his tongue peeks through his lips and licks them}

{dimi knew what he was about to say, but feels the boy's too flustered to discuss Valerius' sexual orientation}

I'm sorry, I haven't given a chance to introduce yourself yet. And you might be?

From:

He felt very awkward, and somewhere, in the back of his mind, he found that he felt a little violated as well. This day was very, very, very odd.

My name is Sandalphon.

He pondered whether to extend his hand or not. He decided against it- he was too weirded out by the course of events and his hand was shaking. Damn it he really should work on trying to not get embarrassed so easily-

And your name is?

From:

{There was something about the boy that Dimidium wanted to poke fun at. It was still too early though, and he was too sober~}

Sandal...phon?

A unique name you have there.

I'm Dimidium, Dimi if you please. No formalities here. <3

Do you want to take a seat with us, Sandy?
