[ he's pretty sure that's a joke, but not... 100% sure. he usually takes energy drinks over coffee anyway, but maybe he should try drinking it black when he does have it. to be safe.
a-anyway. ]
I'm... okay?
[ though he feels less okay than he did before this conversation started. ]
Um... is this about how I was acting toward you before?
[ honestly, all of that had been a lot less worrying to him than the idea that kurusu wouldn't want him around anymore. which is both pathetic and really self-centered, but that's par for the course for him. ]
Don't beat yourself up. I didn't mind it that much.
[IT WAS WEIRD, but honestly? nothing that he'd hold against Mishima in any sort of capacity. especially after, uh. fighting a bunch of Elios ice monsters]
ugh. his face flushes with embarrassment, and a little bit of that heat manages to make its away across the telepathic connection, a fact of which he is thankfully unaware. ]
I mean, I got a book on coffee after that to try to learn some basics myself, but...
[gray eyes blink slowly as he processes the faint twinge of embarrassment from the other end of the connection. a book. . . Mishima was trying to learn from a book. . .]
Why don't you let me teach you instead?
[he's a way better instructor than a stinky ol' book!]
[ look, books can totally improve both knowledge and proficiency, so this is a reasonable course of action ]
Well... I was going to ask Sakura-san if he could teach me eventually, but I wanted to at least get the terminology and some basic facts down first so I wouldn't look completely clueless.

He might jump out at you like a ninja and knock the milk out of your hand, sure.
Always keep your eyes on the shadows.
[don't. just don't listen to him. . .]
-- ah, but that's not the point. How are you feeling?

Well, that and the whole. . . island freezing over, Elios going a little crazy, thing. Things were hectic for a while, so I just wanted to check in.

Sorry for, uh... not helping with that at all.

And the coffee was good, too.

Well, yeah, Sakura-san made it.
[ and don't bring that up!!

Do you want to?

Wouldn't be offering if I didn't, Mishima.

Okay. That would be nice, then.

[that makes it sound so official!!]
I haven't yet surpassed my own master, but I'll impart on you the best of what I know.
