“Absolutely,” I said again, grinning wider.
The server returned with our desserts, blushing as she set them down and then withdrew.

I smiled to the blushing server, because it was just too easy. Besides, the bush lent a warmth to her face and made her even prettier. I was sure the other patrons would appreciate it as well, and tip her accordingly.
"This looks good. Cheers," I said digging in to my pie.

“Cheers,” I echoed, taking a generous bite of my cake. I made a happy sound and smiled at him as I chewed the delicious concoction.

The meringue melted across my tongue and I made a happy sound. "This is really good," I told him before taking another bite.

“Told you,” I said, grinning and trying not to be too rude speaking with my mouth full. “You should know not to doubt me when it comes to food.”

"I was merely confirming your original diagnose," I retorted with a grin before filling my mouth again.

"Speaking of which, are you still studying medicine, or was that merely a phase of your childhood?" I asked with a grin.

“A little of both,” I answered, then took a drink of ale. “I still study it some, but not with that same focus.” I smiled wryly. “Though Joie is a skilled healer, so perhaps I’ve just taken to studying it a different way.”

His words caused me to laugh. "Studying from the touch of her fingers I see," I quipped in return, a grin on my face.

“And the touch of her other parts as well,” I replied, grinning and wriggling an eyebrow.

I laughed again. "The only way to learn," I replied. "And I'm sure she loves to teach."

“Oh yes, she’s very thorough,” I agreed, chuckling. I finished the last bite of my cake and then leaned back.

I grinned. "It's my experience that woman always teach you something. If they don't, they aren't worth the time."

"To that my friend, I'll drink." I toasted him with my glass and drank deeply, finishing the ale off.

I raised my glass as well, draining it.
“This has been a great afternoon,” I said, smiling.

"It has been," I agreed with an easy smile. "Perhaps we should have them more often. The gods know I need more breaks."

I laughed at that. "Aright, I'll concede that one. I'm ridiculously busy," I said. "But I'll always have time for an old friend."

“Then we should do this at least one a week, don’t you think? A break will do you good,” I told him.

"I like the way you think brother," I said with a grin. "I think I can manage an afternoon or an evening once a week. If not, I'll need an assistant anyway."
