[Well, someone's bright and cheery today! As much as someone can be at - five in the afternoon.]

Goodness, there was quite the scuffle at the coffee shop earlier. Someone debating about tea and coffee, I'll never get the stain out of my shirt, I think --

Apparently, you can tell how ludicrously violent people can get over forcing their personal preferences onto one another.

Some people are like that! Coffee everywhere. Ludicrous sounds just right.

As for your question, I usually take tea hot, lemon and honey only if I've a sore throat. Coffee- two half-and-halfs, no sugar.

It's funny, someone else has asked me about flowers before...what can you tell about what a person is like, from them?

[take it like a man, Dae, what is this half-and-half business.]

Coffee and tea are fairly practical, you know. Those who take coffee are the usual busy types. [hmm.] Cream and no sugar - [He'd like to say 'that makes you blandly pleasant, of a sort,' but that would be an insult to some, so he just smiles.]

Flowers are nobility's language, see. Even if a person doesn't think about it, the flowers they would like tell people about their personality.

[The diner waitress says 'Cream, doc?' and he says yes because its seems polite.]

Well, you'd hardly need to see my coffee to know that.

Ah. I see...even for gentlemen?

[He laughs.]

Even for gentlemen. Does it seem odd?

No, it's...probably a lot more common when there are a wide variety of flowers, I suppose?

I thought it an odd offer. I hope it wasn't taken as an offense.

I suppose! Gardens during my time were quite important to an estate. And nobility are usually fancy prats at times, so...

Oh, none taken, it's fine, Daedalus. [........thoughtful pause.] Dae. May I call you Dae?

Well...yes, the regent had his personal gardens too, of course. But there was limited space in the dome to devote to that sort of thing, except in some of the residential districts...most of our city agriculture was for practical things, like food supply-

...Ah- I'd...I'd prefer just Daedalus, or...Doctor Yumeno, if you don't mind.

The...dome? [There's a curious note in his voice now.] How would you describe your world?

All right, dear. Daedalus it is.

The world outside of Romdeau? Uninhabitable wasteland. Our cities were closed off from outside contaminants, an internally sustained life-system.

[Dear? Perhaps another quaint term of his age.] It's...just that I've never really had anyone so closely acquainted to use anything like pet names.
