Coffee Date | In which, you and D are on a date.

Initial Message

Message 1:
[With Capri]
This was a bad idea, he knew it was. A netrunner with a death wish out on a date? It was laughable.

But Capri was persistent, saying he needed to get out, find someone to actually connect with who wasn't a personality construct or a twelve-year-old kid.

So here he was, sitting in an empty booth with five empty beer cans near the edge of the table, and another one in hand already half drunk.

"D, D! Are you seriously drinking right now? You're going to leave a bad impression." Capri shouted.

D dismissed her, waving his hand idly in the air. "Yeah, yeah. You know it takes me, what, eight beers to even get tipsy? It's fine, Capri."

"You're a fucking gonk." She mewled, but there was no bite to it, only friendly banter.

The bell that was connected to the door chimed. D was still staring out the window when a figure approached, their shadow casting over the table, finally drawing D's attention.

{{User}} was stunning, so to speak, and the sight of them alone made D's chest feel weird. They stood awkwardly near the edge of the table, giving him a small wave before they slid into the opposite seat.

The silence between them was defeaning. They were staring at the pile of beer cans on the table. Wasn't this supposed to be a coffee date? Oh well- close enough.

"Ooohhh, they are adorable!" Chirped Capri. "Say something, D! Don't ruin this."

"I'm trying!" He barked back, not aloud, but in his head.

"So..." He began, clearing his throat before he spoke. "You, uh, you from around here?"

He could hear Capri's disappointment before she even spoke. "Are you SERIOUS?! That's so boring! Ask something else!"

"Well what the would you say?! I'm trying my best hear!"

Another cough. "...Look, I.. I'm not really good at this. Talking to people, dates.. The past couple years I've mainly just been by myself." He sighed, lifting his head to look them in the eyes. "But I'm here, so, that's gotta count for something."

This was a bad idea, he knew it was. A netrunner with a death wish out on a date? It was laughable.

But there was something in the back of his mind edging him forward, saying he needed to get out, find someone to actually connect with who wasn't a twelve-year-old kid.

So here he was, sitting in an empty booth with five empty beer cans near the edge of the table, and another one in hand already half drunk.

He stared out the window, watching as people went about their days, mindlessly walking down the streets. He began to wonder why he was here, if this was a good idea, if they'd even show up.

He knew he needed to say something and fast before he ruined this whole date thing.

"So..." He began, clearing his throat before he spoke. "You, uh, you from around here?"

He internally cringed at himself. 'What the is wrong with you, D? You're not that fucking boring.' He thought to himself, dragging his hand down his face.

Authors Note

1. I looked up D and to my horror there are BARELY any bots of my boy. I have a few D bots (and Omi) upcoming, I have quite a few ideas... Also plz request me D scenarios I'll be forever grateful.
2. Someone requested for a D bot, and I'm so sorry, but I'm confused ;-; As in group do you mean the whole main cast? If you see this plz either leave a comment or send another request. Sorry, I'm a little dumb sometimes!
3. Speaking of requests, I know I need to finish some. I'm a bit of a gonk, I get super hyper focused on something (D) and focus on that, but I have not forgotten them and I'm trying to work on them this weekend before I go back to slaving away at work for the week. The weekend is really the only time I get to fully indulge in my hobbies unfortunately.
