Hey, man.
Hey.
I got your coffee ready. Cream, sugar-
I see, thank you.
Anything but black coffee is coffee for people who don't like coffee.
...Huh.
E- enjoy.
*They're sitting outside a café with cars frequently passing by*
Oh, thanks. What... what- what's that on your face?
Aw, oh yeah. I forgot- I forgot to take my mask off. Y'know, we gotta- wear a mask nowadays to go in and get a damn coffee.
Okay yeah, that's cool. That's not a mask- though.
Oh! Oh, yeah yeah. It's, uh- Natasha's maxi pad and some rubber bands I found in the car. I forgot my mask, so it... Y'know, it's sorta the same thing... It- catches- particulate matter.
...I see that. Um... Oh okay, so um... y- yeah, you, uh- you said you wanted to talk about the- new- C'est la- key...?
Yeah, yeah.
Um... Yeah, what...
Well... I mean, to tell you the truth, I'm a little- a little like, uh... distracted. I thought I- I thought I had some ideas, but- y'know like, the whole like, just- "not having a job" thing right now- I'm feelin' a little more- anxiety than I thought I would. Um... *snaps fingers* Oh... I- Maybe we could- we could start over? I have some ideas-
Like- like from- from scra- from s-
But man, I can't even... Yeah! Like all- like just completely- wipe it clean, do something different. Y'know, we- maybe we could do something about, like... what's goin' on for us right now. Like, uh... like our whole, like- shifting vocations, identity... search for meaning kind of thing, y'know. Like we could do- we could do, uh- we could just do it about what's happening for us right now. Take it- take it to this, right here.
...Okay. Okay, um... yeah. Yeah, no- I- I think that's a good idea. Um...
I- Okay well, I- I don't really have any other ideas, so-
Oh.
Maybe- maybe we could talk- to the ladies. We could do like, a dinner or something, and see if they'll brainstorm. Bring some-
Yeah.
Different- different energy, different ideas.
Yeah. Yeah, definitely.
Okay.
And y- yeah- naturally, we would wanna- incorporate them- in... to... Yeah...
Not- just make it about us talkin'- and talkin'-
Yeah, but eh- um- hey yo-

So I could, um... I could talk to Maebelle... about um- Y'know, cause of the pandemic and everything- there's a lot of job openings apparently, at the university. Or like, a lot of people- I dunno what's goin' on, but I think there's like, a lot of-
