[ ...Ugh. Yeah, that's a sentence that hurts. It's amazing, he thinks, that the other can say it so...

Well, they're over text, aren't they. Who knows how he's feeling. ]

I'm sorry. I know how rough that is. I.. I've lost people too.

[ Something to talk about. Hah. ]

Then, would you like to meet the day after tomorrow? Perhaps we could go to Birdbucks.

[ Leo has to check his watch for the calendar, though he doubts he has plans. He tends not to make too many in advance, generally just meeting up with people the day of due to not thinking to ask them prior to that. ]

that would work for me! what time?

and i'm sorry for the people you lost

[indigently]

How about 2pm? Perfect time for afternoon coffee and cake.

[ His smile, in response to the text, is a little sad. ]

I'm sorry for the people you lost, too. That's why it's important for us to make new friends, right? Both of us.

[discomposer]

i'll see you then!

and yeah i have been trying to meet people! i sort of suck at names though.

[indigently]

I understand the frustration. I'm not always great at it either. At least this time it's just one person, right?

Anyway, I'll see you then.

[ And so, two days later at the agreed-upon time, Kaveh waits for Leo at Birdbucks, trying to ignore the milling fans nearby as he sits, menu in hand and browsing through the available drinks and snacks. Having looked through the other's profile at Hiyori's suggestion, he's confident he'll recognize Leo when he sees him—

But he's still a little nervous when he raises a hand in greeting to a young man approaching the cafe, doubt catching him at the last moment even as he smiles. ]

sorry, I had the flu

[ Leo at least doesn't have much doubt as he waves and beams at Kaveh. He doesn't quite recognize him, but someone waving makes him think he's right and if not, whatever!

He comes over to take a seat. Today he's in jeans and a casual shirt, something worn in and loose. ]

Hey! You're Hiyo's friend?

all good! I've been sick too.

[indigently]

[ Kaveh's smile broadens when the other checks in, confirms that he's the person he's looking for, even as he shakes his head slightly. ]

I wouldn't say I'm his friend. We've only talked once. We met on the Network, and I guess he thought I was interesting enough to meet you.

[ He chuckles at that. ]

But otherwise, yeah. I'm Kaveh. It's nice to meet you.

sighs deeply may april treat us both better!

[discomposer]

Well, I'm sure you'll become friends, though! Hiyo's a great person, and real social. Just keep talking to him when you see him and you'll soon be besties~?

[ Leo's just going to adjust into the seat here...he's making himself at home. ]

indeed! :3 I will warn you I'm on hiatus during, so liable to be slow ♥

[indigently]

[ Kaveh smiles at that, and offers the other a small chuckle. ]

I'll keep that in mind. He seemed nice enough, especially given the circumstances. The House posted something on my behalf and made me look kinda... unhinged, to put it nicely. But when we talked, he saw past it anyway. That's when he said that you and I should meet.

[ Too many people lost, for both of them. Kaveh hates that the place makes it necessary, but he doesn't begrudge getting to know more people, at least. ]
