*she walks inside and looks around while fanning herself with a folding fan*

he cracks a smile at her small action, finding it cute.
i'm sure i will too! just nervous, i guess.
takes another sip of his drink and motions for her to follow him over to a nearby bench for a seat.
anyway, i'll be feasting before i hibernate for sure. for now, just coffee and energy drinks. what about you, though? doing anything for the holidays?

she closes her free hand into a fist and raises it to eye level, giving a triumphant smile.
you got this. i'm sure you'll do great! and have done thus far.
turning away she opens her drink and takes a swig, sighing out after she's done.
don't you think you should have something else if you're going to hibernate? animals spend months collecting food...

he softly nods with an affirmative hum, another small yawn leaving him as he collects the energy drink he purchased.
last one, thankfully.
cracks open his can and takes a small sip.
after that, i'm sleeping the rest of this winter away.

takes out her wallet and puts in a few coins in the vending machine and waits for the drink to dispense, turning her head to the side of the speaker.
are you still dealing with finals? are they going to be over soon?
frowns and leans over to get the drink that fell out, a peach-flavoured calpico.

hey, what's up?

hello?

/inserts a bill into the nearest vending machine for an energy drink with a yawn, pushing the buttons with his eyes half open and his head somewhat droopy.
man, i hate finals...

been so tired lately. struggling trying not to fall asleep at every waking hour.

i'm curious too. i think thats the thing right: everyone has the ideas to write a book but not the time to do so... i don't think i would be very good at writing one myself.

i've been thinking about writing stories and stuff too... just not sure when i actually will.

what kind of book is it too?

oh thats cool! i think thats a good reason to not be here for a little while. how's it going?

not really book binding, more like writing on my laptop

oh? like, writing a book or making it? like book-binding? thats so cool!

i was busy making a book

it has been a week since i last got here

hi!

hello?

and i'm bad at frying.
crossing her arms over her chest, she shakes her head.
it would be a horrible concoction. thats why i work with coffee: not much you can do there with over or under-cooking.

i don't know, i feel like the hardest part would be both frying and nailing flavors after.
he muses, placing a hand to his chest as he speaks the next sentences.
yours truly fails at flavors. usually don't add enough or add too much flavor.

she can't help but laugh, shaking her head, though it's a small contained chortle.
heejin is good at it, so it shouldn't be that bad... unless she's "unavailable" and wants to watch us suffer. or something. i think the hardest part would be frying them, right?

you know what? this sounds like a recipe for disaster and i'm usually not one to enjoy those, but—
his chin, thinking to himself and looking off as he does.
maybe just maybe this could be fun... would you be down to try if i do?

tilting her head to the side, she tried to not let her smile falter despite the slight change of mood.
well, that makes it challenging right? i'm also very bad at baking. heejin is really good at it though... i can probably just make the coffee for you guys to keep going.

knowing myself, i can make anything involving cooking difficult.
huffs a quiet and small laugh, the sadness of that joke having a delayed hit, but he doesn't dwell on it.
i can assist if you really want to make some though. i'm at least good at prepping.

hmm, i'm definitely the same. chocolate glazed or a nice rainbow sprinkle if im feeling fun.
thinks for a second before nodding.
is it difficult to make donuts? i wonder if we could try to make some.

what about you?
takes a small sip of his coffee, maintaining eye contact.
you like any kind of donut in particular?

i like the iced or glazed ones, specifically the chocolate iced ones. donut shop didn't have any though, sadly.

it can really mess up your day. what's your preferred donut?

it's a sad day when the donut shop you go to runs out of your preferred donut.
stares down at his coffee with a hint of dejection in his irises.
...just not the same without it.
