Hi--

I hope you're doing well. The last couple of curses have been rough, haven't they? That one late last month in particular.

I wanted to apologize to you for anything I said or did during that curse. I mean, yes, it's a curse and they make us do all kinds of crazy stuff, but I still feel like I ought to apologize if I embarrassed you or, worse, made things difficult between you and your son. I really am sorry. My fault or not, I'm sorry.

But, you know, at the same time, you really are a remarkable person. Everything you told me, even if it was all because of a curse--I can't help but admire you. And maybe the last symptoms of the curse are still clearing up for me, but I feel like I'd like to get to know you a little better--without a curse pushing things along.

Anyway, what I'm really asking is if you'd like to go out for coffee sometime. Just as friends. Just as two people who accidentally met over some pomegranates.

If you don't want to, believe me, I completely understand. I could understand it if you never wanted to see me again.

But, if you'd like to, we can try and schedule it in between the curses.

So, anyway, let me know--because I know a great little cafe.

Thanks,
--Rory

[When she sees this initially, she's totally nonplussed. Especially after Lydia's warning. The man reeks of death, she said. So she doesn't really know how to respond. But eventually she does, totally flustered. Oh, Scott's gonna be furious with her for this, but she doesn't want to completely close the door here. Besides, they're from Beacon Hills. Practically everybody has had a connection to death there.]

...Rory. Hi. So, this is incredibly awkward and I'm actually totally embarrassed by everything that...happened. But, you know, wow, I-...um.

Tell you what. I'd be okay with a cup of coffee.

[unflagging]

Yeah, I know. I am too--but, still, thanks.

If nothing else, we can make some sense of what happened, then have a good laugh over it, and get on with our lives. Coffee is all I'm asking for here. Hey, we can even go Dutch.

We could at least try talking, first. That's my usual MO when I meet somebody. Just for the record.

Okay. Split the tab on this one, see how it goes? Fair enough?

:: Voice

[unflagging]

Hey, mine too. What a coincidence. How funny is that?

Sure--sounds more than fair.

[mamanurse]

It's at least something to start with, I suppose.

I'm off shift this afternoon at five. Would that work for you?

:: Voice

[unflagging]

Sure. That'll work great for me.

The place I know is called Tig's Cafe. I don't know who Tig is, but it's apparently his. Or hers. Anyway, it's kind of north of the Square. Do you want to just meet there?

:: Voice

[mamanurse]

Okay. I'll be there around five thirty.

[OH GOD Melissa what are you even doing?]

:: Voice

[unflagging]

Great! I'll see you there!

[Meeting a inter-temporal, trans-dimensional wizard troll asshole for coffee, that's what you are even doing.]
