WHO: Ellie and Glimmer
WHERE: Magpie Coffee & Teas/Ellie's apartment
WHEN: July 11th/July 16th
WHAT: Just two friends getting tea/Just two friends having dinner
NOTES OR WARNINGS: Discussion and mem-share of past traumas.
[ The flurry of new arrivals and existing Displaced heading off to New Beijing has calmed down a little, hopefully giving Ellie time to get settled and for Glimmer to figure out a good time for them to go. It's one of her days off and with warm summer weather she opts for a flowing skirt matched with a short-sleeved crop, matching purple and cyan in what might seem too loud a color combination on anyone but the pink-haired young woman.
She's early, of course. For one thing she knows where she's going. For another, she's got nerves going about this visit. Which is weird. That's weird, right? She's just showing a new friend a place to get something nice to drink, maybe making some conversation about where they both come from and how things are going here in New Amsterdam. No big deal. She's done it plenty of times with other friends. So why nervous? She's hovering outside the entrance of the shop, occasionally checking her comm in between fretfully toying with the silver-toned bangles on one wrist. When she finally spots Ellie, she straightens to stand on her tip-toes a little, just to make sure she can be seen, and waves. ]
Hey! Ellie! Over here!
