We get all sorts Weir. People from our side of the grass, adventurers wearing all sorts of whacky equipment, even some creatures that aren't humans, bears...
[the bears again...]
And yeah. I was in a tight spot when I met Iona. She found out about my... Whatever it is. [She makes a dismissive gesture with her hand.]
She didn't want to leave me hanging so she hired me on as a new barista and I've been slowly learning about our own world and bits of others.
[The water finishes boiling but she lets it sit while the bubbles subside.]
It's been fun and it's great not being the strangest person in the room.
[... For the most part. People may not know what she is but most of them haven't treated her poorly. And if they do, Iona and Oren put a stop to it before any escalation can happen save for Maxim that escalated quickly but it got better!!]

Far from the strangest person in any universe, given all we've been privy to so far.
[Well, she's left an opening for a question, and he takes it.]
What "tight spot"?
no subject
[His question is denied with a smile.]
That's for me to know and for you to find out some other day.
no subject
As tight-lipped as ever, then.
[Not that he expected much else, given their last interaction. But fine. They'll stick to coffee and phones today.]
