Hello, you've reached the inbox of Kath-erine Lutece. I'm unavailable right now, but leave a message and I'll get back to you as soon as possible. Thank you!
Kath's going to stare at this message for a good minute until her phone locks itself... and then proceed to do it again. Because clearly, this can't be for her.]
It looks like Retrospec is still misfiring texts this month. Who are you buying roses for, Baren?
[There are some weeks where Kath spends more time at the library than she does at her own house. Luckily this isn't one of those weeks, but she still looks up at it fondly as she climbs out of her car, finding a bench nearby to take a seat on. She doesn't know exactly when to expect Baren, but that's okay; as always, she's got plenty to work on!
When Baren turns up, she's reading a text on her tablet, frowning slightly and gently chewing on the end of the pen she's taking notes with (not hard enough to even leave marks on said pen, much less break it open, but enough so that she's deep in concentration!). But if he gives it a moment, she'll notice he's there and tuck everything away quickly enough!]
He's got half a mind to believe that Kath will probably take over the world one day - he just hopes that he manages to get free of her father's beliefs before that happens. Still, this is probably nicer than he ever was when they were dating as he walks over to her, bouquet of roses in hand.
[She hadn't thought that Baren was lying to her with his offer, but it's still surprising to see him approaching her with the roses in hand. Katherine smiles to see it, tucking tablet, notebook, and pen back into her purse and standing to meet him.]
Hi.
How many more of these do you have left to get rid of?

How in the world did you end up with 1200 roses? No, never mind. Yes, I'll take some of them. It's sweet of you to offer.
I suppose the roses would be in poor taste after his cat went missing.
no subject
you get 100 roses
if you want more say the word and they're yours
ideally we'll find the cat
underneath the roses

[She was thinking like. Twelve!]
No, I think that's more than enough, thank you!
Do you need me to come over to pick them up? Hopefully the poor cat isn't getting scratched to death by all those thorns...

His other hand gives a half-hearted wave.]
