[Despite having permission to step right in, Colress still gently raps on the door and announces his presence when he arrives. Soon enough, he's stepping into the kitchen.]

Hello, Professor. Thank you for having me on such short notice.

[Not wearing his bulky labcoat, Colress is dressed subdued by comparison- a simple white dress shirt and black slacks are what he could muster today. His hair is also noticeably not as perfectly styled as he usually prefers it. Not unkempt, but loose. Just another small clue that he's not quite feeling himself.

He does manage a smile at least, because even if the circumstances could be much better, it's still nice to see Sycamore.]

Black is fine. Admittedly, I am not very adventurous when it comes to coffee.

[As Sycamore might have noticed on their coffee dates.]
