"Nothing like a good, strong cup of coffee," agent Cooper practically oozes geniality, "Black as the sky on a moonless night."

For a minute John thinks its one of the Iantos, but he quickly realises 'nope'.

"Heard a lot about coffee...can't say I've really tried it though, not a big thing in the 51st century...the coffee bean's pretty much exinct." At least that was the rumour in the Time Agency. "It's got caffiene in it, though, doesn't it? Because I had some really big problems with that crap the other week."

"So what's your story, gorgeous?" Yep, John's always on the look out for a good shag. Hey, it's relaxing!

"I do not envy you, sir. A world without coffee-- well, that's not a world I want to imagine." Coop seems genuinely remorseful. He takes his joe seriously.

A frown, "I'm sorry, I don't follow you. My story?"

"Oh it's not that bad," John waves a hand. "I mean we've got the aliens, the hypervodka...more than makes up for it all." He's being silently sarcastic there.

"You know, what were you doing before you came here? Aside from, you know, drinking coffee."

"Coffee."

Pause.

"Aeroplanes? Is that how you're traveling now?"

"Eye Candy! How's it going?"

"And indeed I am, I've gone native! Wrist straps don't like travelling short distances if you must know. The technology seems to think it's above all that." He rolls his eyes.

"That's it? Coffee? What about alcohol? You can't possibly go to a pub and ask for coffee...I don't think they even serve it."

"You asked for my favorite drink, not what I order when I go to the pub."

"What's the difference," John giggles. "But humour me here, or don't you go to pubs...with the way you dress I can't really see it, but hey the tie does come off right?"

Depends on which class your flying in and the airline sometimes.

"Well...it was a cheap ticket, but honestly, you think there'd be some consideration. I suppose we got there in one piece and so are meant to be grateful."

(OOC: Since I'm rather new here, I have to ask does the font you're using in your comment mean your character is texting? Or is it a style choice?)

Well there ya go! Plus the modern airline experience is way better than what it used to be.

((ooc: yep, it means that my character is texting. if you want to do the same in the future the tags are [tt] [/tt]. just replace the square brackets with those angle ones.))

"Probably becasue you didn't pay for it," Methos muses, "Beer."

John looks extremely affronted. "For your information, sir, I paid for that ticket in full! And while it was a cheap one, it's the thought that counts."

"Beer, huh? Nice of you to offer," he gives Methos an expectant look.

"Yeah, but you didn't pay for anything else, no extras," Methos points out. "Did you forget your question already? About favorite drink?"

"Hmpf, I didn't think arriving at your destination with your musclar system intact was an extra." John pouts.

"And I remember my question, but I would have thought after you were so rude as to suggest I stole my seat that you could be a gentleman and offer me something."

The 21st century is full of ungrateful idiots.

I end up drinking either Jack Daniels or a few Heineken.

Amen! I like the way you think! Both about the 21st century and alcohol. Note to self: get some Heineken, that's a beer right? So far I've only tried Guinness.
