"You too, huh?" Michaelo called down from the hammock he was now lying on his front in. He had a strange accent, one that you couldn't quite place

Zoe tried to give him a small smile without being awkward. "Oh um I'm Zoe." She replied before she turned away from his gaze. "Sorry." She mumbled.

Jared smiled. "No, you're totally fine. It's nice to meet you." He looked down at his homework, marking off part z of the tenth question. "How are you?"

"Um… I guess technically I'm a Fallen Guardian Angel… for reasons…" Atticus trailed off before clearing his throat to fill the silence. He pulled out a bandana from his pocket. "Would this help? I always carry one with me just in case."

"thanks"was his curt reply as he took the bandana and tied it around his neck. "very helpful, so what brings you to this cafe that looks like an anime threw up on it?"

"You too, huh?" Michaelo called down from the hammock he was now lying on his front in. He had a strange accent, one that you couldn't quite place

Antoine looks at the guy and nods, smirking a little. He sighs softly, running a hand through his hair.

"Antoine, correct?" Michael asked, now dangling precariously off the edge of the hammock

"Yeah." Antoine replies, nodding a little. He gives a quiet sigh. He was so tired and ready to fall over. Hammocks and bean bags would suffice as he tried to relax.

"Michaelo. Poncho if it's too hard to pronounce," Michaelo said, introducing himself as he sipped his coffee while dangling from the hammock

"Michaelo." Antoine pronounces, almost perfectly. He smiles, "Antoine. Most just call me Toni." he says gently.

"thanks"was his curt reply as he took the bandana and tied it around his neck. "very helpful, so what brings you to this cafe that looks like an anime threw up on it?"

(lol it's okay my friend)

Atticus frowned slightly. "I come here to watch mortals and their behavior, but… What… what is an 'anime'?" He asked innocently, genuinely confused.

"Most just call me Poncho. Mainly because my actual name is hell to pronounce and I wear a poncho almost all the time," Michaelo chuckled

"oh stars" he chuckles "Anime, how to explian anime… you know cartoons right?" he asks, trying to stop himself from luaging like a maniac

Atticus frowned even more. "What… what is… a cartoon?" He asked quietly, embarrassed he didn't know these mortal things. He could feel his face turn red.

He laughs "dont worry, it took me years to understand all this human crap" avery reassures him "so, why are you looking for other Non-Humans?"

"Most just call me Poncho. Mainly because my actual name is hell to pronounce and I wear a poncho almost all the time," Michaelo chuckled

"Mmm. I can understand that. The only people who know how to pronounce my name right are the french." He rolls his eyes.

"Well, lucky for you, you're talking to a multilingual philosopher who is very good at pronouncing things as they should be," Michaelo hummed

He laughs "dont worry, it took me years to understand all this human crap" avery reassures him "so, why are you looking for other Non-Humans?"

"Thanks…" He relaxed slightly. "I'm searching for any leads. I'm looking for a Demoness. Her name is Mania, and I'm going to avenge my wards. I figured the people who would know her whereabouts would be more on the non-mortal side of things."

"Hmm, oh yeah Mania! she lives in my house complex with her kids" he says cheerfully "why would you need to avenge someone, Mania wouldn't hurt anyone, unless of course they touch her kids" Avery is laughing inside but keeps up his cool demeanor

"Thank god." Antoine mutters, chuckling softly. He hums as he takes a sip of his drink, relaxing a little bit as he does so.

"And thank god you pronounced my name right," Michaelo chuckled

Antoine laughs softly at that. He hadn't laughed in… well. Since forever. It was hard for the male to laugh at all anymore.

Michaelo smiled a bit widely at Antoine's laugh. He thought it was…adorable? Something like that

Antoine takes another sip of his drink, looking around at the people in the cafe. He looks at Michaelo. "So. What brings you here?" He gives a little smirk.

Michaelo gave a long sigh. "My brother locked me out of my study. According to him, I've been 'working too much again,'" he said, making air quotes before taking a sip of his coffee

Antoine smiles at that, "Marie used to call me a workaholic…" He looks down at the mention of his little sister.
