[Lord Windos]

Unlike Shiva, Ventus was just content shipping his Dead Eye and Turkish Coffee, experimenting with both somewhat to see if it was possible to blend both their flavors into a invigorating and delicious coffee blend! Perhaps substituting the drip coffee in Dead Eye with T.C., and adjusting the amount of Espresso that goes in? Altering the spices to less savory and more sweet, like vanilla and carmeal, to make the blend more paletable? Hmm....the possibilities....

The researcher could but outright quietly laugh at the sudden outburst of aggressive desire coming from his normally demure friend, placing his cup of coffee down to fondly tossle her hair once more with a now slight bemused (But no less content/happy) smile gracing his face. "I'm not entirely sure whether or not I'll return to Unova or settle down here and start my own projects within Cheshire, but I'm enthused to have your company should we pay Sonata a visit in the distant tommarow! Yes, I'm aware of the University's branch in Stair, and I plan on making a visit to research more thoroughly about the Dragon types and Legendaries of the region, as well as learning more about how Cheshire's culture of extremely high respect in Pokémon came about in greater detail! As for Elanor and its various amenities, I would be delighted to share them with you however we possibly can, including helping you acquire a Sun Stone should you have difficulty in doing so! After all, happiness shared is happiness multiplied, and always enjoying spending time to help others, especially if its a precious friend like you, dear...." he said, letting things go comfortably silent between them once more as they gathered their thoughts and enjoyed their respective food/beverages. Ah....that was some good coffee!

Despite his reservations and nervousness about meeting Shiva's father (Who he didn't even know the name of, much less what type of person he is!), Ven couldn't help but be fascinated by her brief but informative speal about the Daycares operations, especially the part about it being primarily a breeding place. 'Hmmm...interesting. If its possible, I'll have to inquire about her knowledge in the matter of breeding later, as that is one field I'm almost completely clueless about that she's perfectly suited to help fill in the vast blanks there in. That, and I'm curious to know what else she knows on subjects that is stored away in the depths of her mind, far away from most attempts to get at the arcane knowledge...' he thought to himself as he pondered what more had been said about her father/the daycare, before he nodded his head at Shiva once more. "I'll be the crisp and perfect image of a proffesional + gentleman, and endevour to give a positive first impression to your father.....or so I pray to Reshirim to make that so. At the very least, I'll not act in an extravagant manner and inform him of my occupation and experience, should he ask, so worry not about, dear. I'll be engaging in enough of it (worry/grief) for the both of us, so no need to stress yourself out like I certainly will!"

The mystical lass' next question garnered her a raised eyebrow, as the dubiously moral sociologist had not expected her to call in his matter on cosmetology and face/appearance alteration, especially concerning infiltration and/or espionage. Still, it was not that of an out of field question for him to consider, and the topic certainly had merit given their past/possibly future activities in regards to that wretch cabel of wizards, so he was able to easily and casually offer his opinion on the topic: "Hmm.....yes, it would be possible to disguise your appearance, but it would require more work, supplies, and effort that just minor touch ups and removing your glasses. Color contanct lenses would be a start, followed by darkening and/or altering the structure of your face with various powders, foundations, creams, etc.. , then some hair dye or hydro peroxide to alter your hair color, adding some hair extension or giving you a haircut, make up around the eyes to alter the relative shape of them to others... If I had enough latex, a quality wig, and time/resources, I could even contrast a disguise for you without such invasive re-makeover, but that route in of itself is rather extreme as well. Regardless of what method is used, it would be possible to disguise yourself....it would just take a lot of painstaking effort and time on your part to get things right. I'd be more than happy to help you, of course, but I since I left my own Make Up kit back in Unova, I would need to purchase another one here, and its been some time since I've practiced my old craft to such an extent, so my assistance might not be to standard unless I take the time to refine my skill more..."

Once more, silence reigned in between them, but that wasn't such a bad thing when it was filled with a pleasant atmosphere, the smell of fine coffee and pasteries, and the good, content, and peaceful cheer that had form between the pair. Sweet, isn't it?

Order: More talking, more advice, and more delicious coffee! Ven's more or less talked out at this point, so I'm ready to move on and have him meet Shiva's dad unless Phantom/Shiva has more to say that require them to remain in the coffee shop! There is also the others to consider, since we are kinda stalling them at this point as well...
