NIKI
"I almost feel as though I cut my Torchline vacation too short, given how Flowerbirth has been," Niki admits as he hears that the warmer region has been spared the worst of the mud. He glances up as a server approaches to take Asta's order, the boy already having gotten himself a fresh cup of coffee, and so he takes the opportunity to slip his book away back into his satchel while he waits for the older man.
It also allows him to admire the shadow in a little more detail, and once Asta has placed his order for spiked cider, he can't help but nod towards it. "Are you in control of it?" he asks. "Or does it just act that way on its own?" He's not sure which he might prefer, honestly. Before he can get that response, though, the butcher is asking his opinion on the Dusklight, and its with cheeks flushing pink again without his permission that he scoffs a laugh and drops his gaze to the table.
"Educational," he hazards. "I was not aware the human body could contort itself in such ways until today. I confess, I did not expect this to be your, uh, place of work?" Presumably.
