UN: LOKI | VIDEO

[abit_ofboth]

[Loki is dressed impeccably, if casually (at least for him) in a black, button up shirt, undone at the collar, his hair tidy and brushed back from his face. He looks confident and relaxed, though anyone who knows him might note a smidge of nervousness.]

I was hoping someone here might know of a restaurant that is not either the diner or the pub. They are both fine establishments, but I was looking for something a little more upscale and intimate for a special occasion. Any chance one of you might know of such a place? Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Aw, dude!!
Do you have a date?
That's super cute, but also

there is this one place
not FANCY but a cutesy bakery and taven, plus a candy shop!
it's neat

[abit_ofboth]

I… maybe? I did not quite phrase it that way and am not sure I could actually call it that. More just that I wanted to spend an evening with a friend. Would that still be considered a date?

[He kind of hopes it does, but has no idea how his friend might respond to calling it that.]

Oh? That actually does sound promising. What is it called? I would like to go check it out for myself first.

[hasitsthorns]

hm, well!
a date can be anything from, like, a classic romantic date to just spending some quality time together
the point is you're making time for each other, which
sounds like this fits!
it could be worth it to double check though since being on the same page is also important

[ Do as she says, not as she does and assume interactions mean more than they do. Oops. ]

it's called hai yu shiang!
it's like an old timey chinese house, but has all that cool stuff there too
and is open to the public from what I know!

[abit_ofboth]

I see. This is good to know. I admit you are not the only one to point out the date-like quality. I suppose I will have to see if that is okay.

[He doesn’t know what she’s done, but he’s glad of the advice. Loki is already slightly aware he might have been giving his prospective date mixed messages. Even if it was unintended.]

Well, that does sound interesting. I will definitely look into to that. Thank you. I believe I now owe you one.

[hasitsthorns]

I hope so!!
you'll have to let me know
（。＞ω＜）。

[ Mixed messages can happen, but better to resolve them sooner than later.

Which is also a problem she has, oops. Don't worry about it! ]

haha aw
you don't owe me anything, really!
i'm just happy if I can help other people be happy

[abit_ofboth]

[Loki’s next message comes a few hours later.]

Since you seem interested, I thought I would let you know that it is a date and he did say yes. And again, I thank you for your help.

And I must disagree. At least let me take you out for lunch or something. Though purely as a friend. Perhaps I will even tell you how the date goes.

[hasitsthorns]

[ Rosie doesn't mind the delay. Honestly, she hadn't even been expecting a response after a while but- Oh! That's nice. ]

HECK YEAH
well happy birthday date to you then
I hope it's great!!!

but okay with that kind of offer
how can I say no??

[abit_ofboth]

Thank you very much.

I will contact you soon about meeting up then. I look forward to it.

[hasitsthorns]

of course!!
can't wait to hear from ya
