“We better not be going to Java.”
The intensity and determination with which Nicholas made this almost-demand caused Andi’s to stop in their tracks. Which was fine, because he had also stopped and was posturing in the sassiest pose they had ever seen. “You don’t want to go to Java, because...of the logo.” They parroted his reasoning to make sure they understood and also to point out that he sounded ridiculous to them in that moment. Just who the hell was the suit-wearing, logo-hating coffee-snob and what planet did he come from.
As a graphic designer they had their own low tolerance for the font in question, but only to the point that they wouldn’t use it personally. Their distaste didn’t run deep enough to condemn entire business.
Shaking their head Andi started walking again. “Where do you want to go, then?” Andi gestured with their hands for Nic to take the lead. The coffee shop that he had just so vehemently turned down was the one that Andi often went to. It’s distance between their job and their apartment made it a convenient stop. No doubt fancy-pants had his own place that he’d want to go to.
“Where do you go to school?” They asked to route the conversation back to what they’d been interested in.

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.
