“Nah, only English and Spanish,” Yeon responded with a shrug. “How about you?”

'English and French. I tried to learn Thai once when I was going to Thailand, but…' Tyler let out a laugh. 'I wasn't great at it. I accidentally said something rude to a waiter instead of what I wanted to say.'

“Ah, I know what you mean. English isn’t my first language, and I’ve messed up a few times. When I was learning, I forget what I was trying to say, but I said ‘drugs’ or something instead and my mom smacked me over the head,” Yeon explained, laughing at his own misfortune.

Tyler let out a big laugh. 'Wow. Anyway, would you like another coffee?'

“Mm, that offer sounds very tempting, but I’m all out of leasure spending money for… the next week, I believe,” Yeon said, pausing mid sentence to think about when his next job was.

(Wait a moment… @Opia I checked out your account and it said I'm contributing to your universes wait whomst)

(it just says that when it's public I'm pretty sure…)

(oh okay)
'No, I'll pay,' offered Tyler. 'What would you like?'

Charlotte stood up when she heard the boys talking about coming up to get something. Can't make it seem like I was listening in….quick, take out your gameboy! She took the game out of her pocket and began absentmindedly playing it.

“If you insist, I’ll pay you back later when I get cash. I probably just need a small black coffee, I get a bit loud and hyper when I’ve had too much caffeine,” Yeon said with a chuckle.

"Um." Say yes, you idiot. "Y-yeah, sure." Lloyd moved his chair over so Lola could pull one up, pushing the textbook to the side.

Lola smiled gratefully. “Thanks.” She sat down. “So, do you go to college?”, she asked politely.

Lloyd shook his head. "I'm a senior in high school, but I'm sixteen." He looked away awkwardly. "I… skipped a couple grades.."

Lola grinned broadly. “That’s so cool! What do you want to study in college?”

"Well, I really like science and art, but art doesn't pay very well. I was planning on majoring science and minoring art, so I could do art as a side thing and science would be my main job. I doubt I'd be a good teacher though…" Lloyd ran his fingers along the spine of his textbook. The cover was well worn, considering he read it so often.

“And why do you say that?”

"I'm.. um… not great with people. Or talking to people. People can be scary sometimes…" Did you seriously just say 'people are scary'? You're such a wimp, oh my god.

Her eyes softened a bit. “I can sympathize with that.” Her mind immediately went to the hormone blockers.

A pink tint rose to Lloyd's cheeks. You're acting like a child. Technically, I still am! I'm only sixteen. Yeah, but you hold yourself to a higher standard, don't you? Pull yourself together.

She took a sip of her coffee. “So, What university are you planning on going to?”

"I'm considering Oaksville right now, but Boyd also looks good. They both have pretty good science programs." (Random names btw)

(K)

“I go to Oaksville! I’m studying marine biology and art.”

"Really? How do you like it? Animals are fascinating, aren't they? And the ocean… we've only explored around 5% of it! Who knows what might in the the unexplored depths?"

“It’s amazing oh my god! My personal favorites are deep see squid and octopus, did you know that they found an underwater lake?”

Lloyd nodded. "I think the giant crustaceans that live on the ocean floor are quite interesting. They can withstand all that pressure, and thrive! Many thousand feet above that, people would be instantly crushed!"
