[Too bad, Wanderer. Heizou sees it, and it makes him smirk widely.]

You know, your stubbornness just makes you cuter~

[threebetrayals]

Cute?! Why do you people keep calling me cute?!

[book2thehead]

[He laughs loudly.] Because it's true!

Now then, are you thirsty? We can grab some coffee on the way back to your place~

[threebetrayals]

[. . .]

Tea's better, but if there's a place on the way back we can stop.

[book2thehead]

Tea it is, then~

[How true to their Inazuman roots. Heizou just smiles as he starts leading the way toward a cafe that has some good teas, swinging his own bag of books as he walks.]

The more bitter the better, yes?

[threebetrayals]

Obviously.

[The tiniest, tiniest of smiles.]

[book2thehead]

Obviously~

[He sees that smile! Heizou is counting that as a win for him.

He talks Wanderer's ear off about the new books he's picked up until they get there. At which point he orders for both of them; it's easy to guess what Wanderer will like, after all. And of course he makes sure Wanderer knows that this is all still Heizou's treat.]

Don't even think about repaying for any of this. If you try, I'll just keep taking you out~

[threebetrayals]

[He rolls his eyes.]

I understood that the first six times you said it. You're paying me back for finding your Vision.

[book2thehead]

[He spreads his hands with a shrug.]

Hey, you're stubborn. I have to make sure the message sinks in properly.

[threebetrayals]

Do you? Do you really?

[book2thehead]

I do. Seeing as you certainly haven't caught on to the fact that some of us here actually like you.

[threebetrayals]

I try not to assume everyone is an idiot masochist.

[Wanderer...]

[book2thehead]

[That makes Heizou grin, amused.]

Awwww, you always say the sweetest things. Careful now, you might make me like you more~

[threebetrayals]

[Just the most baffled-yet-judgemental look.]

[book2thehead]

[His grin just grows a little.

And of course that's when their drinks are ready at the counter, so Heizou goes to grab both and hand Wanderer his bitter, bitter tea.]

Here you go~

[threebetrayals]

[Which Wanderer takes with a smirk before sipping.]

Dare I ask what you got?

[book2thehead]

[Heizou sips at his with a satisfied hum.] Green milk tea. Definitely much too sweet for your tastes.

Do you like yours~?

[threebetrayals]

Perfectly bitter black tea. Unlike your abomination--why would you add milk to green tea?

[book2thehead]

[Heizou laughs brightly at that.]

I added sugar, too. And whipped cream~

[threebetrayals]

That is a crime to green tea. I'm afraid I'll have to arrest you~

[book2thehead]

[He's full on beaming now, leaning in just a little bit as he sips his drink again.]

Oh~? I didn't realize you were the tea police~

[threebetrayals]

[A shrug.]

For that? I'll become the tea police.

[Wanderer please.]

[book2thehead]

Oh my~ And what is to be my punishment for my heinous crime, officer~?

[threebetrayals]

I think arrest and exile into the abyss is punishment enough.

[book2thehead]

Oooh, the most serious of sentences. Can't I get something a little less harsh~?
