    Tea Rex is cheap, with an eccentric, comfortable atmosphere and is well out of city in Elk Grove to the south, where there is little to no chance of accidentally bumping into anyone they know. Kaze isn't really 'celebrating' turning thirty and being Apostate and alone having failed at his calling and his relationship. Apparently Briar Rose isn't in a celebratory mood either, but is willing to be company to misery. He can relax with someone who isn't going to try to cheer him up. He's dressed casually in jeans and athletic shoes and a plain, black tee shirt.

    "So, yeah. Thanks for coming. This is it. Order whatever you want, it's pretty cheap here, I can cover it." Kaze grins and says to Briar Rose in an expansive tone. "They have sake and Kirin beer too, even though it's not on the menu. I have to ask for it, but it's not a problem."

    Briar Rose should have expect the literal T-Rex head on the wall, but she didn't.

    Her boots stomp through the place as she marched over to Kaze. She didn't dress up, she's in what some might dub her uniform. Boots, yes of course, skinny jeans, white t-shirt, loose with coloured spatter on the edges, with her leather jacket thrown over it all. Her pink locks, she knots up into something up and away from her face.

    "Yo." comes a deadpan as she sits her ass down. "I was promised sake, so yes. That's what I'm having, but fuck. Kirin beer too?" a look, a snort then a nod. "I'm gonna want some sushi - " she spies a menu, "Awww." comes a whine "Spicy ramen...oooh, personal Shabu Shabu," Oooohhhh, mango shave ice....

    Suddenly, in a blink and you miss it way, "Happy birthday, or whatever." Then she's back to the menu.

    "Thanks." Kaze says, smiling at Briar Rose's appreciation of the menu and acknowledging her acknowledgement of his birthday. "I'm not exactly celebrating, because honestly, I thought my life would be a lot different when I turned thirty, I wanted it to be a lot different. But it is what it is, and like my grandfather used to say, 'getting older beats the alternative'."

    "So yeah. Thanks." Kaze says quietly, not waiting for or wanting Briar Rose to have to say 'You're welcome.' "I didn't feel like celebrating, and I didn't feel like being by myself, and I really, really didn't want anybody to feel like they had to cheer me up. And I thought I didn't feel like explaining, sorry." He laughs.

    "Hey, I'm going to get a bottle of sake and some Kirin. You want lager?" Kaze asks. "They have both kinds. And no, I'm not trying to get you drunk." He laughs at the absurdity of getting someone who knows Life Magic drunk anyway. "I'm fine with getting you some for later, when you go home."

    The pinkette snorts, looking up from the menu, "You're a fuckin' baby." lips quirked up. "Justa wee boy," her fingers float up, pressing until they're an inch apart, the hand drops, "Just three whole decades and you're life's what? Not what your grade school, where will I be in whatever many years wishes and dreams assignment? instead of what, fit? Healthy? Alive? Yeah, for this one. Listen to that old man." she nods, glaring around her fringe. Not really knowing why she's suddenly this. But she is.

    Good thing he didn't wait, she wasn't going to say it.

    "So you invited me, because I wouldn't want to celebrate or care if you explained or not?" a shrug, "Whatever." eyes down again, "The Shabu Shabu for me, yeah. And sushi. And the grownup drinks, and fuck you can't get me drunk unless I wanna stay that way. So, zip." she punctuates that with a quick snap of her fingers, a quick point and a sharp look.

    Kaze laughs at Briar Rose's tough talk, calling him an effing baby. Yeah. That's about right.

    Then he pauses as she says what it sounds like he thinks of her.

    Kaze sighs. "I'm sorry, Rose. No. The reason that I invited you is because you are the person that I most feel like I can be myself with, even though I am still working on who 'myself' is. You seem to me like someone that...hah, I am really opening myself up to get blasted for saying this, but you honestly seem like a good role model for me; you seem like you are who you are, and you don't change for anyone. All my other friends...it's not their fault, they aren't trying to change me or anything, but I tend to kind of pick up on what I think they expect me to be, and fall into trying to be that." Kaze says. "You on the other hand tend to make it clear that you don't want that, and call me on it the second I start to do it with you."

    Kaze grins and gets up, leaving to order her food and get her Japanese booze. His parting words over his shoulder are casual and deftly timed to not give her a chance to respond until he returns about ten minutes later, "I think you're pretty awesome that way Rose, honestly."

    Briar Rose has words. But this asshole gets up and leaves.

    Fuckin' cuntwaffle

    When he gets back it's a boot tapping, and a tongue obviously clicking.

    "Cheeky sonovabitch." the words might be teasing but the snarl isn't. "You don't just do that!" her voice gets high and kind of squeaky. Unused to that pitch.

    She balls up a napkin and throws it at him.

    Kaze doesn't smile, he takes it seriously, though he does try and fail to catch the crumpled up napkin. "Hey, hey, I'm sorry. I promised you food and drinks, so I wanted to keep my promise. Here." He holds out the shabu shabu and the beer and sake bottles in front of him like a peace offering.

    The shabu shabu is set up for them to cook their individual pieces of sliced meat and vegetables themselves in the hot cooking pot with an assortment of hot sauces. Kaze picks out a piece for himself and cooks it in a sauce for himself, paying a lot of attention to the process and letting Rose decide for herself if she wants to make food or open a bottle or cuss him out. He doesn't ignore her exactly, just sort of acts like she can decide on her priorities for herself without interference or expectation from him.

    She's still glaring at him as he puts the promised food down. She has time. She can glare. Her food, once she places her veg and meat in her the scalding broth, needs to cook.

    Though she does crack a smile when the obviously athletic Kaze misses her napkin, she hadn't even really meant it.

    She takes some of her sake, pours it out into the saucer. There was food and booze and she wasn't that big of a bitch.

    "Kampai," she says, raising it up, and downing the saucer.

    Kaze looks up from his food as it seems to be ready for his first bite, and nods and grins at Briar Rose's drinking toast!

    "Itadakimasu!" Kaze responds, grinning and touching his hands together in front of him for a brief moment, bowing slightly.

    Then he eats, looking interested in Briar Rose's general direction without rudely staring. He seems chill and quite content to just eat together without conversation, just enjoying the company.

    Briar Rose feels her lips lift into something akin to a smile. She has a flash, even as she follows Kaze with a quieter "Itadakimasu," as she dives into her amazing looking and smelling and yes tasting food, of warm twisting nostalgia.

    Born of watching, and wishing. Simple and unobtainable.

    Being able to, wanting to, say Tadaima and hearing Okaeri in response.

    She coughs, shifting awkwardly.

    "Your's good?" she's trying. She'll probably fail. But she's trying.
