Wiping down the counter of the newly opened Paixao branch of WildKat coffee, Hanekoma looked around to do one last check that everything was in order for a new day of customers. So far business hadn't exactly been booming, but even if he met one new customer Hanekoma was willing to call it a good day.

After all, the more people he met, the more his world expanded, and the more he understood the events that surrounded him. That in mind he moved to the door, and flipped the sign to 'Open.'

Likewise, Zexion was also noticing that there was something... not quite right about Hanekoma. It was very faint, and largely hidden on the overpowering scent of coffee - one of the reasons he'd never been overfond of coffee shops - but it was still there. Not that he was simply going ask about it; that would have been rude in the extreme, not to mention hardly the way he did business. Just who and what Hanekoma was could wait.

"I'll have that one, I believe," he answered pointing to the one a line below the one he would have chosen had it not been for the oddity of a simple coffee shop in Paixao having somehow found the recipe for coffee as it had been made in Radiant garden. Oh, the option was tempting indeed, but it was a little too convenient, and so he'd take the next best option.

"Please, call me Ian," he offered, before turning his attention to the cup of coffee. While he may have outranked some people in the tenuous ranking system of the Organization he wasn't precisely used to being referred to as anything other than his name (or whatever he was using instead of his real name). And in any case he'd never put as much faith in that scale as others had.

Anything else remarks would be put on temporary coffee-delay.

Although Zexion was not, generally speaking, particularly well-versed in all things coffee even he could tell that this coffee was a step above the sort that could generally be found in the other cafes in the city. Clearly Hanekoma was a man well-versed in his chosen profession. It made sense then, that he'd be interested in restarting his business here.

"Quite a cut above what you can find elsewhere in the city," he commented after a moment or two. He meant it to refer to the coffee, but in a pinch it could also refer to the store itself, should Hanekoma choose to take it that way.

"If this is any indication, I don't think I could find it in my heart to fault you for that."

Not that he had a heart, but that little revelation was something he wasn't going to mention. Ian was supposed to be 'normal' after all and something like that would sound highly suspicious even here. So he'd simply refrain from mentioning it.

"Merely passing through, although my stay's lasted longer than I'd like." Nor was there any real indication that he would be leaving anytime soon, although that was normal for this place.

"It can be an interesting place at times," Zexion commented. "But apart from that I quite agree."

It was how people reacted to the city that made it interesting. How they dealt with being on a world not their own and possibly quite thoroughly alien. How they dealt with the domes, the lumens. All quite thoroughly interesting if you asked him.

There was a nod from Zexion at that. The city may not have been the safest, nor was it always the most pleasant but it was interesting.

"I imagine you'll be seeing more. People always seem to tell more to their bartenders." A slight pause and a faint smile. "Or their baristas."

"Sometimes all people need is an understanding ear," Zexion countered with a slight smile. And from what little he'd seen so far Hanekoma had that much at the least. A friendly face and a smile went a long way, or so he'd found over the years. How much it would help... well, that was something that only time would tell.
