( from here. )

[ Hey, to be fair, if there wasn't some mutual enjoyment out of teasing each other, this conversation would've taken a much stranger turn fairly quickly.

As it stands, James gives a grin when June sits down across from him and plunks the water bottle in front of him. ]

Of course not.It may have been a long night but I at least know how to keep up appearances in public after years of experience.

It's the years of experience that worries me a little, I'm not gonna lie.

[ june sinks further into his seat, sinking a few inches down into a slouch. he wrinkles his nose a little, the scent of alcohol mixed with sugars tickling his sense of smell. ]

You could've just called me, you know.

I thought you would've been more worried about me making a fool of myself than actually having the wherewithal to be able to keep from doing so.

[ And clearly he's enjoying being a cheeky little shit just because he can at this point. ]

Though that's true, but my mouth has been otherwise occupied up until recently.

Yeah, the whole ice cream and wine scene. Doesn't mean your fingers couldn't dial, though.

[ gps extrapolation would have been tedious, but june would've managed to figure out which area james was in. he'll never know now.

he sighs, canting his head aside and setting his staring at james head on. ]

Are you gonna finish all that alcohol out here?

[ He shrugs. It's not like he couldn't have taken care of things if someone had decided to try and get the jump on him - and beyond that he has a(n un)healthy amount of paranoia instilled in him to know to keep his guard up. ]

Probably. Unless you wanted some? [ He tilts the glass in June's direction, though he's fairly sure the other won't take it. ]

I don't, but if you're drinking anyway, let's get you somewhere better suited for the mood.

[ the cafe's patronage is becoming uncomfortable for june; too many eyes looking around, too many phones sending loads and loads of data out into the world, including pictures of themselves in the cafe. june could end up in one of them; he's not in the mood to risk it. ]

Fine, fine.

[ He laughs, standing and stretching, but not before taking a drink from the water bottle that June provided - more or less just to give the other some peace of mind than anything else. Jae wasn't kidding when he mentioned that he knew how to keep himself composed in public, even after being mentally exhausted and trying not to end up throttling someone in the process. ]

Lead the way.
