You actually came...

[she thought maybe he forgot, or had second thoughts, and she would not blame him for either.

what did people do in situations like this...]

Oh! Do you want to sit? I can get plates and things...

[and she darts off to get them, as though if she takes too long he's going to vanish, but comes right back.]

What do you want to drink?

[quatrain]

Of course. I said I would, didn't I?

[ he waits near the door while angel goes deeper into the apartment, swinging the bag back and forth idly. ]

Water's fine. Let me put these out on the table...

[ wherever the table is. please give him directions. ]

[phaseshifted]

[she almost runs back again but catches herself, gesturing for him to follow her. the table's more or less just around the corner, and she goes a bit farther to duck into the kitchen and grab two plates, plus two glasses of water.]

[quatrain]

[ she certainly seems excited, but he remembers her saying that she rarely has company. he keeps his most pleasant expression on as he lays the takeout boxes out, humming softly. ]

Let me just pop these open and we can eat. What do you think? It's your first Thai experience!

[phaseshifted]

It all smells really good!

[look, if she told him the full details of how rarely she has company aside from about three people she doesn't like, it would seem far too unbelievable to be true. better that instead she just put out the things she's gotten and peer curiously at the boxes, deciding she's going to have a little bit of everything.]

[quatrain]

I brought chopsticks, forks, and spoons. And a knife.

[ he holds it up with a smile as he pulls out a chair. ]

Go ahead. Oh, some of this stuff is kind of spicy...

[phaseshifted]

That's just fine.

[and she does take some of everything, pausing before she takes a bite.]

...Thank you. For the food and for visiting.

[quatrain]

It's my pleasure. I promised, didn't I?

[ whipping out his perfectly marketable smile again, he leans closer for a moment before he turns to the food. ]
