[Mimmi sounds tired.]

Oh. It is snowing.

[Pause.]

How lovely.

[And she actually means it!]

I suppose this would be a good time for a coffee, do you think?

[Is she speaking to him? She's probably not speaking to him.]

Didn't know you liked coffee.

Re: audio.

[missmimmi]

Ah, there are many things you do not know, Logan. I ran a coffee shop on the ship I was on.

Re: audio.

[idkmybffcyclops]

I wanna fix that.

[He laughs a little]

Didn't know that either.

Re: audio.

[missmimmi]

I suppose we should fix that.

[The 'over coffee' is implied.]

audio.

[idkmybffcyclops]

[He smiles.]

I'd like that.

Re: audio.

[missmimmi]

Perhaps the common hall again?

Re: audio.

[idkmybffcyclops]

I'll meet you there.

Re: audio.

[missmimmi]

[And some time later, Mimmi shows up in the common hall with coffee. Thank goodness for there being a kitchen in the barracks.]

Logan, are you here?

Action

[idkmybffcyclops]

Over here.

[He's look a bit better than he did the last time she saw him.]

Re: Action

[missmimmi]

[That's always good. Mimmi sets the pot of coffee and a small stack of mugs down on a table.]

I did not bring any sugar, I am afraid. I hope that is all right.

Re: Action

[idkmybffcyclops]

That's fine.

[He wonders idly if she's going to expect something from his past from him? He doesn't mind revealing he's a mutant. He's not ashamed of it. He just doesn't want to scare her off.]

When'd you learn to like coffee?

Re: Action

[missmimmi]

[Mimmi pours some coffee into a mug and pushes it toward him.]

When I was much younger. My family had it often before it was replaced with ersatz coffee.

Re: Action

[idkmybffcyclops]

Ersatz...?

[That sounds familiar to him somehow.]

World War...II...?

Re: Action

[missmimmi]

[Derp, Mimmi, you've gone and done it.]

...Ja.

Re: Action

[idkmybffcyclops]

Sorry.

[Dayum Mimmi. You're old. I MEAN LET'S CHANGE THE SUBJECT.]

What was your family like?

Action

[missmimmi]

There is no need to apologize.

[Mimmi pours herself a cup of coffee, finally.

Dang, it's been a long time since she's really thought about her family. It makes her feel kind of bad.]

Ah, well, they... were mine. I had my parents and two younger brothers and sister. Paul, Randolph, and Gertie.

[She frowns a bit on Gertie. Fuck you, Elegante.]

We were rather close, I suppose.

[Especially after being cramped together in hiding.]

Action

[idkmybffcyclops]

[He watches her while she explains. When she finishes, he looks away. He doesn't want to dwell on things that might make her sad.]

Sounds nice.
