Maeve studied Owen's face as he spoke. Piecing together almost imperceptible movements of his face. Things he wasn't telling her, and feelings he was ignoring. It wasn't that Owen couldn't control his expression, he was masterful at policing his face, but reading signs was her job.
She glanced briefly at the ties he held up for her inspection and ignored them both with a frown. He needed something that radiated a more positive vibe. There was something so severe about the clothing he usually chose for himself. Even the dainty flowers didn't save the dark-colored tie he had chosen. Maeve pursed her lips. "So, you're saying it's not a date? Do you not like?" He was calling this late lunch a repayment, such a strange thing to do platonically.
"Are you sure she's a plant witch?" She called over the sound of running water, as she rifled through his closet. Hedge witch was a bit of a strong accusation in their community. She knew he wouldn't answer her until he returned, but she put it out there regardless. While he was absent Maeve selected what she perceived as the perfect ensemble for his date. A pale lilac shirt she had never seen him wear, and a matching tie. She had liked the floral elements of one he had shown her, but managed to find one in a lighter color tucked in the back of the drawer. She choose grey slacks, because she was tired of seeing him wear black all of the time.
Maeve didn't look at him while she answered his questions. Too busy looking at all of his tie clips. "You're always so worried that I come bearing bad news. I didn't really see anything. Not like you're thinking. I was just made aware that you weren't prepared for this date. Kinda like the universe was telling me a funny joke."

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
