“Where the 𝘧𝘶𝘤𝘬 did you hear that?!” She shook her head and looked at the mug.

“Coffee people love mugs.”

“Thank you, Ben.” She laughed a bit as she read the mug.

“I really appreciate it.”

She is 𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧 𝙜𝙧𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙛𝙪𝙡 for him. 🥹

The day together is the perfect gift, and truly all she could want.

If need more, I can arrange it.

Might take some time, but I can get it.

Of course!

Unless you wanted something less potent?

Absolutely fitting.

It’s all above board, don’t worry.

‘Bark Muncher’! Hahaha! Love that!

But no. I had a small stock of them for a while, that I received in… a trade.

I have! Great beans make great coffee.

He’s absolutely welcome to it. As always.

She had enough to pour an extra mug.

Who wants it?

You should be! Glad to see you enjoying the festivities!

Spoopy boy

Looks good on ya, Number One!

Fuck yeah, Jon!!!

Kudos on the costume!

Her costume for today.

That sounds perfectly suited!

Next time, we should add that.

You might be right.

Another? One I haven’t sampled yet, I take it.

The Tribute coffee, on its own, is quite good.

THAT, you would be fine with.

As it should be.

But… what if… we added a certain Forerunner beverage to it?

Would that work?!

Fair enough.

It’s a powerful brew. Hot damn.

You’re welcome to sample this new brew. Just be warned… it’s Spartan powered.

JetFuel™️/Tribute bean blend?!

She’s in a hardcore coffee mixing mood now.

Her eyes closed, and she settled into a quiet lull with him.

“We should armor down, before I get too comfy like this.” Truth be told, she already was.

“I know we’ve got a bottle of white chilling in the mini-fridge, and I can swing by the mess hall to get us some grub… whaddya say?”

In all the time they’d been together, he hadn’t spoken much about his team. She hadn’t really pried, either.

“Getting Z to not eat batteries is one of the most challenging tasks I’ve ever endured. He says he likes the way they feel in his mouth.” There was a light shudder from her at the thought. +

𝘚𝘤𝘰𝘵𝘤𝘩 𝘵𝘢𝘱𝘦...

The coffee alone is good for quick and dirty.

This latte though? Quite enjoyable.

Thank you.
