All of this is certainly good of you, though. I'm hardly going to ask you to apologize for doing it. Though it's likely I may ask you back to my apartment after the fact.

Easier said than done, most days. But I think I can make an exception for you.
[...That said, the wine is good. He's never complained about Sycamore's taste in wine, honestly - Sycamore's opinions on wine don't always mesh with his own, but he does appreciate the effort put in, and usually Sycamore can find something he'll like.

Did you really? I hadn't even considered doing such a thing. That cafe did have rather nice coffee, didn't it?
