[ How does she explain she just didn't want to seem crazy or.. Needy, by saying there was a zombie tree horde threatening to ruin her day?? Or kill her, probably??? ]
Ohh, yeah, I'm fine! Better, actually.
[ Immensely better knowing he has no qualms on convenient, unethical, murder when Lottie needs it. She smiles, stands up and follows after him (not before grabbing a bag from the counter and stuffing her snacks inside). She hovers behind him like a puppy, steps a little unsure but still eager, ]
Those things just kinda freaked me out a little so I probably overreacted to the whole horde thingy.. Thanks for coming though!
Actually, I'd probably say you underreacted. You made it seem as though you needed a quick favor, not to be freed from a horde of monsters.
[ Even now, she's claiming they "freaked her out a little", when most people would have been visibly freaking out a lot rather than sitting there, drinking tea, pretending everything is okay. ]
I'm glad I came prepared, even if I may owe the cafe some credits to pay for damages later.
Do you need me to escort you somewhere?
[ The robots are giving him a lot of dirty looks, and one of them is already trying to snatch Lottie's bag of snacks away from her, clearly making the connection that Lottie had brought trouble here. ]
[ Oh? So did her playing it cool for precisely no reason.. Work? She'll be sure to mark this down later, for now, she moves a little closer to him once the employees make themselves known. Ugh, these robots are so rude!
Lottie tries to hold back her scowl, and the eye roll that so desperately wants to be free, instead clutching her things tighter to her person. ]
Uh. Home..? If that's okay.
[ She points in some vague direction - a street with comparatively less monsters, but still equally torn up and suspicious looking. ]
You don't need to do any crazy jumping or anything.. [ Mostly because she can't jump or fight like he can - also because she's wearing a skirt!! ] We can just speed walk or something!
wtf i accidentally deleted this notif i'm gonna go feral
[ The robots are indeed rude, but it is his fault, kind of, so he feels bad. He tries to make up for it by momentarily pausing and transferring a big chunk of credits to the business. It makes the main offending robot back up enough so that they can leave. ]
Yes. You'll just have to point out the way, and we should leave before they decide I haven't compensated them enough.
[ He nods when she points out the direction. ]
We'll probably run into some of them taking that street, but it's alright.
[ He's not cocky he's confident okay he's a little cocky. ]
We can just walk normally, unless you'd rather speed walk. [ Whatever floats her boat... as long as they don't walk backwards like Wataru made him do. ]
[ Preferably: always speedwalk. Lottie would rather die than be caught by one of those ugly tree zombie things, so her answer is quick and firm: ]
We're walking fast. [ They have leftovers after all!! ] I don't want to spend another minute in here with these things.
[ The things being.. The incoming zombies or the robots?? It's hard to tell and she'll never elaborate! Lottie takes the lead, out the door and tentatively into the road. Despite how her steps are filled with purpose, she's visibly suspicious - eyeing every which way with an urgent look to her eyes. Still, she tries to play it off like she isn't nervous or petrified at the idea of being attacked or pulled in a random ass alleyway, asking - ]
