There's a small cafe near the Down Public Housing building--close enough that the coffee can be smelled on the wind in the mornings. Quentin's passing it by, on the way home from somewhere or other, and may be surprised to find a barista in a Cafe LeBlanc apron on break in front of the building, sipping a cuppa of his own and smoking a cigarette.

Perhaps even more surprising, the barista in question is a Dominant. A lanky man only a few inches taller than Quentin, he has his hair back in a tidy braid (as is appropriate while working around food), and is dressed in black clothes under his apron, with a botanical tattoo of some sort visible on his right arm under the rolled-up sleeve of his button-down shirt.

As he sees Quentin, he lifts his cup in a casual salute. "How's it hangin'?"

That actually sounds fucking amazing. Apparently we can't even get like books or movies that aren't porn? What if I want someone to tie me up and watch LOTR with me, this is bullshit

quentin you hate being comfortable

I got a gift from a guy before a date the other night. It's not necessarily weird, but it is different.

[ It's like... 2am when these texts come in, what's up Quentin. ]

hey, turbo slut
awake? 💜

[He's been avoiding this for days. At first he didn't even think about it. He spent an entire night being whoever anyone wanted him to be, and they all seemed to enjoy it, so... his responsibility is over. Right?

But, of all of them, Quentin seemed the most like a puppy and he was a volunteer so maybe Jamie is a little responsible for him. Sigh. It takes him hours to even write a text the day he finally decides to do it. What is he supposed to say? It was fun being your husband do you need to talk about it or anything?]

Hey, it's Jamie.
just checking in with all the volunteers

[He really isn't.]

Hello.
I don't mean to bother you, but I've heard you have a talent for fixing things.

[ two days after his network post, there is a parcel addressed for quentin. it’s wrapped in brown paper and has a thin braided copper bow.

there’s a note attached: ]

Happy birthday.

--S. S.

stop whatever or whoever you're doing
I have something to show you

[ Is this his way of trying to make amends? Maybe, but he won't say it. ]

[ Prepare for a confession. Jeff's coming clean and revealing big secrets! ]

[ So she's clearly seen what he posted to the network, but Sombra seems to have decided she wants to privately text him in response to it - not respond to the post itself, private or not. ]
