Where| The cutest little cafe in the Capitol
When| During Week 2 of the Arena
Warnings/Notes| None!



It's a couple of weeks until Signless's schedule allows for Porrim to sneak him off for their lunch date; his new status as a Mentor combined with his newfound popularity as the most recent Victor means that even someone with her status has to wait a bit. But Porrim's not fussed; she's happy to wait as long as she gets to actually sit down with Signless and get some one-on-one time.

When the appointed time and day rolls around, Porrim escorts him to her choice in restaurant herself. The place was picked with a rather tongue-in-cheek manner; it's a small cafe, violently pastel and frou-frou, full of canoodling couples. It's the last place you'd expect anyone to be meeting up with their alternate universe not-son.

They're led to their table, and Porrim is highly aware of and highly amused by the fact that she sticks out like a sore thumb, dressed all in black and gold. She perches primly in her chair and orders a cup of Earl Grey for starters.

"I hope you like pink," she tells Signless across the table. "Almost everything on the menu is some shade of it."

"If you're anything like the other Maryams I've known, you won't have any trouble."

He finishes off his tea, allowing the last of the warmth to settle in him. This has been such a nice distraction from all of the stress he's been dealing with as of late, and he's going to enjoy that for the absolute longest he can.
