"I'm not picky," Ren said, to cover for the fact that she had no idea what a Belgium waffle was and how it differentiated from other, presumably less-Belgium waffles. "Anything I can drown in syrup works for me." Hmm. Syrup. What would that cupcake-loving demon have made of syrup, she wondered? Probably a mess.
She caught the tin and the lighter and couldn't help eyeing them. It would be so tempting to take a few extra cigarettes for the road, but it was a bad idea to steal from someone at any point accept right before you were about to leave their company. A good meal by itself was worth more than even the whole pack of cigarettes was. Probably not in a technical, monetary sense, but Ren had never really picked up a tendency to think in those terms. You could live without cigarettes. You could not live without food. End of debate.
Still, she took one out and stuck it in her mouth, shielding the end and the lighter from the wind as Ruka began to drive. There was a lot of wind, more than she had expected. She'd certainly never been in a convertible before.
Once she'd lit the cigarette, she took a long drag, savoring it. She let her head fall back against the headrest, blowing the smoke straight up and watching it peel away with the force of the wind.
"Feels like flying," she muttered to herself. Her mind was on the wings from last night, how the creature who'd had its way with her had shaken the air. How she'd wondered what it would feel like if he took off with her.
She took another puff off the cigarette, and smiled. Being rich must be really fuckin' nice.
"I used to live with someone who drank coffee almost religiously," she said, mostly up to the sky at large, still watching the clouds and the edges of buildings roll past as they drove. "Every day, I got up at six to get a brew going. Never really got a taste for it myself... He drank it black, and it always just tasted so bitter to me." She took another long inhale, enjoying the tingle at the back of her head. "I always wondered what those really fancy 'coffee drinks' they sold taste like. Everyone says they're so sweet; I can't connect that in my head with that dark black bitterness."
