I'm not in a desperate hurry. I'd rather you be comfortable.

[Jamie takes a drink from his mug and lingers over it. He does like the tea here and he's found a few blends that suit him just right. He loves the taste of flowers.]

Anything you want to talk about? [he offers.]

[rosebyanyother]

[He gives Jaime a faint smile but shakes his head. It isn't anything he really feels like getting into with a new acquaintance, honestly. Feelings are very hard and he trusts very few people with his. The fact that he's showing any sort of less than optimal mask is only because he has quite a bit of turmoil beneath it.]

Kind of you to ask but it's nothing terribly serious. [It is.] I suspect it will pass shortly.

[He is not.]

[Jamie knows that look and he doesn't press, not now, not when things are so new. The mask is there for a reason and ripping it off in public would be rude.

So, instead, he offers a small smile and lightly taps Morrigan's foot with his own beneath the table.]

I hope that it does.

[Even if it won't.]

What if I help distract you? [he offers with a coy little smile.] What do you like to do when you aren't meeting wayward creatures like me?

[At that little tap and Jaime's description of himself, Peter's smile grows a bit.]

Hm. Well, I enjoy anything that affords good people-watching. I do spend quite a lot of time in bars for that purpose. Shopping...

[He has other, well, interests but they're not particularly socially acceptable ones and so he'll choose not to share those with Jaime.]

I like listening to music. I play a bit too, though generally not for anyone else.

[He likes. He's also only middling at it.]

[the_fairest_flower]

I adore people watching. And spending money.

[Jamie tips his head with a playful smile. It's too bad Morrigan is holding back: socially acceptable is overrated.]

I'm game for anything, darling. Your wish is my command.
