Hanekoma had to admit, the Doctor's plan certainly was a creative one, and as much as he was not normally the type to get too involved in local conflicts, this one had managed to catch his attention. The fact that it let him stretch his artistic muscles was also a real bonus.

Therefore, he had placed a sign in the window, promising free portraits for ever cup of coffee purchased. Hey, it helped clue people into a chance to exploring new parts of the world, let him get back into shape artistically, and sell some more coffee in the deal. It really was a win for everyone!

Karrin wasn't sure about this 'free portrait' business but she could smell a good cup of coffee when she was near one. She pushed open the door and looked around at the small establishment, it looked like one of those popular cafes that college students went to for coffee. It wasn't her usual place...then again she usually only had time to snatch up some coffee from a gas station or at the precinct itself.

"Smells good, you've got straight black right? I'm not usually one for all the fancy mixes they have these days," Karrin said after approaching the counter.

Grinning Hanekoma smiled up at the short blond woman who entered, her vibe one that demanded authority and promised protection.

"Of course boss," he replied in a easy tone, already moving to make the coffee, "I take it you're the sort that needs her coffee fast and strong?"

The guy was really laid back, almost enough to put Karrin herself at ease...but she knew better than that. Still, even she couldn't help but smirk slightly at his assessment, "You've got it." Karrin wouldn't admit she liked to hear him call her boss.

She glanced over her shoulder, "So, who's giving those portraits?" She wasn't sure why...but it stuck out to her.

"Ah, that would be me," Hanekoma replied as he expertly made the coffee and slid it to her, black as night and hot as hell.

"I'm a bit of a dabbler in the arts as a hobby."

Karrin raised an eyebrow but took the coffee before saying anything. She blew on it a little bit to get it a tad cooler. No sense going and burning her tongue and ruining the taste.

"Really," well it made about as much sense as a wizard playing guitar so she wasn't going to press too much on it. She finally took a sip of the coffee and smirked, "Pretty good."

"Thank you for the kind words," Hanekoma replied with a grin, leaning against the counter across from her. It was always nice when someone acknowledged the craft he'd spent centuries to perfect.

Extending his hand, he said, "Sanae Hanekoma, pleasure to meet you."

"Karrin Murphy, Chicago PD...as much as that's worth here," Karrin muttered the last part under her breath while she took a sip. It was still a little frustrating how little she could do here. She sighed, "Still, if you ever have any trouble or anything, look me up. I'm used to staying busy."

"Now now Officer, no sense getting down on yourself," Hanekoma gently admonished, "the lack of a badge doesn't mean you can't help the people here. In my experience, justice is one of those things that knows no borders."
