[Of course the cafe. This is where Dwyer can at least attempt to shine through partaking in his favorite pastime.
And yes, by some manner, he has procured an apron to wear.]
Good afternoon, Madame Director. [He gives her a bow, not too deep but not too shallow, just right and proper like he's been taught.] Forgive me for asking you out all this way, but I was hoping you would indulge me for a little while. You see, I was able to procure some coffee beans in Vista Virs, and I've been experimenting with the brew. I think it's just about right, and I'd like you to sample it.
[Excuse her candor for a moment, but as she sits, she crosses her legs and thinks about that for a moment. That's something she definitely would not say no to. And she respects his post, doesn't ask about the attire or the way he wants to selflessly do this for someone. She knows who he is and what he stands for.]
I think I'd like that very much, Dwyer. But... only if you promise to sit with me while I drink, and we can share a cup together.
[Is it impolite to watch someone make coffee? This magic black bean potion that gets created by pouring hot water over it, is that a personal sort of thing, or can she stare on and enjoy the process?
Lucretia, after all, is a firm believer and lover of process.]
As much as you say it's an honor for you, believe me when I tell you how deeply tickled pink I am by the gesture, Dwyer. I don't think anyone has ever made me a cup of coffee before. I've always been the one pouring, myself.
[It's not that she has high standards, it's just... efficient for her to do so.]
I can't wait to try your concoction, though. What method are you utilizing? Pour over? Draining? Percolating? Waterdavian Press?
[It's not impolite! He usually doesn't have an audience, but it's kind of fun, in an odd way. It's nice to show off what he's learned and the skills he's honed, even if it's not flashy or containing much in the way of theatrics.]
Really? No one? That's a shame - everyone deserves to have someone make them a cup every now and again. [But he's going to remember that for later. The Director pours her own cups? Respect points.]
I've been doing pour over mostly, though I'd love to experiment more with decoction...but you need the equipment and a lot more spices and additives for that to really work...percolation is good for daily drinking, though.
[Basically, he means he'd love to make Turkish Coffee, but he'll take percolated.]
I haven't heard of any Waterdavian Presses...but I can assume how it works. Which method do you usually like?

[And he's out-coffee'd his father with much worse, at that. But he relaxes a bit at her response to his offer.]
It would be an honor to do so, thank you. [So uh. I guess he gets to work? Would the Director like to watch his caffeine bean methods?]
