[These Pokémon are out to kill him, hang on he needs to whip off his bracelet and take a photo/video/Prismagram of the three starters happily crawling over a thoroughly flopped-over Pyroar-]
This is so cute...
[...and what was that?]
Hah! You say that now, but you're still a newbie! You need to save your Chroma.
[Well it looks like the two humans are ready to just stand in these groves and argue playfully about coffee, so you might as well, Pyroar. You might as well.]
Perhaps! But it's all the same to me, in the end-
[....
....oh, wait. You just said it wasn't inconsequential, so that means it. matters to you and...
...stop this, he's had enough Feelings-]
...I....well. It's not inconsequential to me, either.
You're getting a laugh and a playful eye-roll for that one.]
Alright, you win, you win...I was foolish to even attempt arguing the point with you. I will sit in the café like a good boy and do exactly as you say!
[Still going to hold onto the dream of buying you coffee, one day...]
But if you don't let me do something nice for you in exchange, I'll be upset. Deal?
You know that I don't do anything with the expectation that I'll be repaid. But even if I did, you act as though you don't do more than enough for me already.
[...well. He's glad to have entertained you with his pathetic attempts at winning an argument.
(he'll get you one day...)]
Now that we've established - in the most exhausting manner possible - that we both like to do nice things for one another, why don't you tell me what sort of food you'd like me to make for you? If you can't decide, I'll give you some choices.
...There's a point to be made about how this is allegedly repayment for me taking you out first, but have you ever known me to be indecisive like that, mon ami?

Please. I've never let you pay for me before, and I hardly intend to start now.
no subject
This is so cute...
[...and what was that?]
Hah! You say that now, but you're still a newbie! You need to save your Chroma.
I, however, have more than enough to go around.
no subject
Perhaps so, but we're hardly talking about anything expensive.
[We are discussing coffee, for god's sake.]
no subject
[They are tiny and mighty.
....also very comfortable, pyroar you're so warm-]
So it wouldn't matter if I paid for you, correct? Since it's hardly anything expensive, as you said.
no subject
I said that it was inexpensive, not that it's inconsequential. I do recall there being a difference.
no subject
Perhaps! But it's all the same to me, in the end-
[....

...I....well. It's not inconsequential to me, either.
no subject
...Are you okay, Sycamore, because like.]
Then you'll let me pay.
[He is entirely content that he has won this argument; he absolutely means it, mind, but still, he's pleased.]
no subject
...you're impossible to argue with, you know that?
[He's well aware that he can come up with a number of beautiful counter-arguments, and you'll just shoot them down with 'because I said so'.
...sadly enough, he has missed this.]
Perhaps I'll allow it. Once.
no subject
I've heard that I can be difficult from time to time.
[Does he care? No.]
no subject
Oh, very much so. You're lucky I'm one of those morons who finds it endearing, rather than frustrating.
[...
okay, more endearing than frustrating.]
no subject
[he is so fucking obstinate and he does not give a single fuck about it, augustine, you ought to try it sometime]
no subject
You're getting a laugh and a playful eye-roll for that one.]

no subject
Pyroar, he hopes you're comfortable...]
I know that. I also know that you know I like doing nice things for you because I like it. It's not something I intend to argue about.
[Look at him, trying to take your advice! He can be obstinate too!]
no subject
no subject
[You silly thing.]
But I'd like to have you over. I'll cook for you, or something like that. Simple and straightforward, I promise!
no subject
I would like that, then.
no subject
There. That wasn't so hard, was it?
no subject
no subject
[...]
...you are impossible...
[He's definitely laughing but Lysandre, oh my GOD]
no subject
[he's so insufferable, someone should probably be sorry about him because god knows he isn't]
no subject
Yes, yes, we have...if I didn't know better I'd say you took pleasure in being so obstinate, Lysandre.
[...at this point, he's genuinely concerned he doesn't actually know better...]
no subject
A figment of your imagination, I'm sure of it.
no subject
(he'll get you one day...)]
Now that we've established - in the most exhausting manner possible - that we both like to do nice things for one another, why don't you tell me what sort of food you'd like me to make for you? If you can't decide, I'll give you some choices.
