Teemo nods to Rumble, stepping up to the counter as the male in front of him finishes.
"Excuse me. Could I get a Cinnamon-spice and Caramel-Vanilla coffees, with a bowl of oatmeal and a honey-glazed doughnut on the side? Thank you!"
The scout places the money on the counter: 13 Roubees and 7 Valoran. After a few moments their drinks are ready. He picks up Rumble's coffee and oatmeal and hands them to him before picking up his own meal.

Rumble grabs his oatmeal and immediately starts eating it. "Thanks a bunch, Tee," he states, as he drinks his coffee. Rumble continues to chomp down on his oatmeal for a little bit before he turns towards Teemo again and speaks.
"So what else do ya have in mind today? Visiting the coffee shop isn't the only thing we're gonna do today, I know that for sure," he chuckles.

Rumble takes another sip of his coffee before he glances at Teemo again and chuckles. "So ya came to my workshop at six in the morning without any plans? Nice vacation indeed."
He grins and rubs Teemo's head again before chomping down more of his oatmeal. "I'm only joking though, heh heh. I'm up for walking around town, bud."

Rumble pauses eating for a moment, turning towards Teemo to give him a glance that obviously disagreed with Teemo's previous statement.
"Sure. Fun," he bluntly stated, obviously referring to the fiasco that occurred at Teemo's house.
Rumble resumes eating his oatmeal and drinking his coffee. He finishes the oatmeal relatively quickly and tosses the cup and plastic spoon in a nearby trash bin.

Teemo frowns, setting down his drink.
"Is... something wrong? Did I say something wrong?"
He blinks and turns to the window, leaning on the table next to him and looking down into the Styrofoam cup. Sure, they'd hit a few bumps before, but wasn't Rumble happy with how things ended up? Or... was it just a facade so that the scout wouldn't feel bad for being a bad host...?

Rumble continues to gaze out of the window, with both of his arms resting on the table. Obviously, he was contemplating about something. He didn't like the fiasco that occurred during his stay at Teemo's apartment, but he had to admit to himself that he didn't exactly hate it either. At least, he didn't hate it as much as the fiasco that occurred at Poppy's homecoming - though the same consequence basically happened.
"N-no," he stuttered. "It's just that... It was really nice of you to let me stay at your place, and I enjoyed it. It's just that, well, I didn't enjoy all of it," he stated, emphasizing on the word "all."

Teemo looks up at Rumble, feeling a little hurt at first but then thinking that it was probably inevitable. He blinks and rolls his eyes, his sad expression mellowing a little.
"Oh well. You can't enjoy every bit of everything I guess."
He sighs and lowers his head to the table, lazily looking out the window and wondering if maybe he should have found something else to do before interrupting Rumble's work.

Rumble looks back at Teemo and notices his gloomy expression. He sighs and continues to sip down his coffee, but he can't help but feel bad about hurting Teemo. It was a weird feeling to have, too. Rumble rarely, if ever, felt bad for anyone in his entire life.
"Yeah," was the only response that came out of Rumble's mouth. He continues to sip down his coffee and stare at the window before deciding to initiate another conversation.

Teemo sighs quietly and sips from his coffee again, turning to look at Rumble with a mildly upset expression. It was already pretty clear what his answer was going to be.
"Oh, well, aside from getting laid off, breaking my knife, and not getting the best outcome from my latest mission, things have been just peachy. ...yeah... It's been... tough, lately."
He rests his head on one hand and drinks the last of his coffee up, thinking over the miserable events of this past week.

Rumble sips his coffee, quietly drawing in all of the words that were just spoken to him. Silence takes the air, as Rumble continues to quietly drink his coffee and gaze out of the window, not saying a word.
After a full minute has passed, Rumble sighs and turns towards Teemo. The mood has turned from being cheerful into being gloomy relatively quickly. Rumble felt guilty about that, and it clearly showed on his expression.
"I see. So... did you come to my workshop because you needed to feel better, then?"
Post by The Swift Scout on Feb 24, 2013 19:46:00 GMT -5
Teemo looks up from his empty cup, fur bristling slightly. He raises his hands in a shrug.
"W-well, I could have gone anywhere, ya know, like... like, the Branded Rogue for some mead! I just... I mean it's not like I was..."
The scout sighs in defeat, tilting his head down. He didn't want to lie to Rumble again, and it's not like the mechanic didn't know everything already. His voice lowers to a mumble and he keeps his eyes to the floor.
"...yeah...I thought spending some time with you would cheer me up and help make the time go by faster."

Rumble looked down, away from Teemo's gaze. Now he felt really guilty, because he knew he was depressing Teemo more than making him feel better.
"I-I see. Um..."
Rumble put his hand on Teemo's hand, not as a sign of intimacy, but because he knew Teemo liked holding hands and this was the least Rumble could do to help cheer up Teemo.
"S-sorry for, um... for not helping with that then. I, er... I know I'm not really helping with your feelings..."
Rumble paused in his sentences. He wasn't used to apologizing or handling these situations, because he rarely apologized about anything in the first place. It made him feel weird and uncomfortable, but he also felt that it was something he should do.

Teemo looks up at Rumble when his hand is touched, and he can't hold back a small smile. He didn't really want to see his friend make a fool of himself, so the scout stands up and hugs his friend warmly, laughing a bit.
"Hey, no need to be so hard on yourself, now. You're not making me feel worse... I just haven't gotten over things quite yet. Besides..."
He snickers and whispers into Rumble's ear.
"Ya kinda look like you're trying to confess something to me with all of your stuttering. And thanks... for trying to cheer me up."
