Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 5:49:09 PM)
-luc is sitting in the cafe near one of the windows. he is looking at his food closely, picking it apart. when a waiter asks if something is wrong he turns and replies- oh no... i was curious how its made.... that's all. its great -stops 'playing' with his food-

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 5:52:10 PM)
*Isabel enters the cafe, pushing the door in with her elbow. She has an athletic build, but moves rather badly despite it - there's a distinct stiffness and clumsiness, especially in how she relies on a cane to help support her weight. Her features are plain, strong, and ungraced by cosmetics.*

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 5:55:08 PM)
*She likes this cafe. While it has its share of tiny bistro tables and tinier chairs, it also has a few padded armchairs and settees to choose from. She claims one such chair, easing into it carefully.*

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 5:55:37 PM)
-he shall try and make this food later. luc has an idea about it roughly. its a challange. he sips his iced green tea then glances over as isa wanders past. his food that was pretty looks kinda awful now-

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 5:58:13 PM)
*A sigh as she gets off her feet, settling in for a moment before dumping today's paper on the tabletop. The cane is hooked over the arm of the chair, out of her way. She pokes around her jacket pocket before retrieving a stubby pencil.*

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 6:01:16 PM)
-this is the third green tea he is drinking, he likes how they combine it with other stuff. anyways, nature calls and he gets up and starts to walk towards the wc. he isn't very attentive and his foot hits the cane. luc trips, can't regain his balance even grabbing onto a chair-

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 6:03:04 PM)
*She swears softly, grumbling* Jesus...

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 6:04:43 PM)
-he gets up off the floor- stupid cane.... -grumbles a bit and then hurries to the wc for a moment-

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 6:05:32 PM)
Stupid cane? Excuse me?

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 6:06:37 PM)
-he's gone by then, sounds of running water and such. eventually returns and tries to walk normally but his ankle hurts-

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 6:07:41 PM)
*Meanwhile, Isabel is attempting to reach the cane on the floor, without getting out of her seat... she's wearign a distinct grimace as she stretches out her hand*

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 6:08:28 PM)
-he notes the cane and bends to pick it up. hands it to her as she can't reach it-

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 6:09:36 PM)
*She hmphs as she takes it* Thank you. You should look where you are going.

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 6:11:08 PM)
you should be more careful with that.... -he shakes his head and starts back to his seat, winces a bit about the ankle and pauses a moment then continues. he's not too far from her actually-

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 6:12:50 PM)
*irritable, now* It was right there. Plain as day. Do you think I should hang it up on the coat rack, so you can muddle through without opening your eyes?

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 6:13:58 PM)
in fact that's a spendid idea -he smirks faintly- less things to trip over -pokes at his food now-

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 6:14:57 PM)
I'll take that into consideration. Because, of course, this is -exactly- what I think of as a fun fashion accessory.

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 6:16:28 PM)
at least its a useful one..... -he eats some more of his food and its still warm thankfully- you can hit people with it -he almost jests-

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 6:18:10 PM)
*She frowns, then scowls* Yes. It's useful. *Her jaw clenches, and she re-hooks the cane over the arm*

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 6:19:38 PM)
are you ok? -he asks softly, his tone and mood seeming to change as she shows some kind of hurt face-

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 6:20:31 PM)
I'm fine. *A pause* I'm sorry. There was no other place to put it.

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 6:21:30 PM)
i had to really go so i had that on my mind -pokes at his food some more- they have really good iced tea here

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 6:22:39 PM)
I like the coffee. And pastries. Bad day, a beignet will fix many things.

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 6:23:12 PM)
a what? -he quirks his brow faintly-

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 6:23:30 PM)
How do you exist in New orleans without this?

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 6:24:09 PM)
what the hell is a biegnet?

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 6:24:46 PM)
It's a round of dough, deep fried, and covered in powdered sugar. And it is divine. Simple and wonderful. They have good ones here.

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 6:25:58 PM)
oh yeah of course i knew what it was we um just call it something different.... -he pokes at his food again-

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 6:26:28 PM)
Covering, I see. You should order some at once, I say.

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 6:28:19 PM)
if i am hungry after this i might try it.... this thing is filling.... i'm happy they have alunch special

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 6:29:40 PM)
There is always room for beignets. Trust me.

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 6:30:39 PM)
maybe i could take it home with me instead....

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 6:31:28 PM)
i try not to eat fried foods.... only once in a while if that

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 6:32:53 PM)
You only live once.

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 6:33:19 PM)
And hell, at least part of it should be enjoyable.

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 6:34:46 PM)
i enjoy what i eat..... besides not eating that grease and stuff lets me live longer... but i'll try the thing

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 6:36:22 PM)
It's not the only thing... *pauses* i'm sure my doctor would have a goddamned coniption, frankly. Whatever. Let him live on that diet for a day and hear him talk.

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 6:36:57 PM)
how bad is it? your diet..... -he asks curiously-

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 6:38:05 PM)
*She rolls her eyes* You can imagine. Nothing spicy, nothing greasy, nothing good. All broth and oatmeal, I swear.

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 6:39:25 PM)
but spicy is good for you.... some oils are ok too. hmm i bet he doesn't eat like that. in moderation its ok. i just eat as i do..... -faint shrug-

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 6:39:48 PM)
I'm allowed tea. -Tea-.

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 6:41:25 PM)
Well, spice is hard on healing tissue, blah blah blah. *A brief scowl*

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 6:41:26 PM)
nothing wrong with tea..... -he raises his glass of the iced version and drinks some of it-

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 6:41:37 PM)
Tea is not coffee.

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 6:42:30 PM)
i didn't say it was..... i drink that too. oh well i take it you were injured doing something?

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 6:43:43 PM)
*A shadow flickers across her expression, and she shifts her gaze slightly away from him* Yeah.

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 6:45:09 PM)
-he leaves it at that and doesn't press further-

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 6:47:20 PM)
But hey, any landing you walk away from... *She attempts to lighten the mood*

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 6:48:23 PM)
if you can walk away, that's great... many are not so lucky -faint frown and he goes to poking at the remainder of his food-

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 6:49:41 PM)
No. They aren't. *She shuts her eyes, one hand reaching to rub the side of her neck. The pencil on her table suddenly rolls, going over the edge and hitting the floor with a clatter*

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 6:51:05 PM)
(ok i will roll)

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 6:51:46 PM)
(3 succ)

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 6:52:27 PM)
-he feels a rather strong strange vibe and a shiver goes down his spine. what is that? something is up but he isn't sure what exactly-

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 6:53:12 PM)
Dammit. *She uses her cane to try and push the pencil into reachable distance*

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 6:54:45 PM)
-he sighs softly and goes over to get her the pencil. luc crouches down, winces some and hops a little on his ankle but gets it. puts it on the table and goes back to where he was-

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 6:55:33 PM)
Thank you... sorry. Must have kicked the table. *Her cheeks flush slightly, and she seems either irritated or embaressed*

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 6:57:11 PM)
its nothing really.. hey i'm luc by the way -he offers to her-

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 6:57:48 PM)
Isabel. Are you a regular here?

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 7:00:29 PM)
no, i don't go to cafes that often.....

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 7:00:47 PM)
-he rubs the back of his neck, wonderng what had happened earlier-

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 7:00:55 PM)
I'm more a diner kind of girl... too much time on my hands right now, I guess.

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 7:01:51 PM)
well if i do go out to eat its like a cafe or resturant.... i do not go alot -he nods gently-

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 7:02:56 PM)
It isn't healthy enough?

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 7:04:38 PM)
its expensive and i dunno..... i usually get stuck with take out or just eat at the cafe at work so -he shrugs- its not a big pasttime for me, eating out

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 7:07:03 PM)
The last thing I want to do is cook. And usually, I don't have the time. I know every greasy spoon and all-night chinese joint in the Quarter.

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 7:10:04 PM)
-he nods gently- i don't really cook yet.... it seems like something to try someday.... i'm just enjoying my day off.

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 7:10:16 PM)
What do you do?

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 7:10:55 PM)
i'm a doc at charity's -he sips his drink again then lets some of the ice melt in his mouth-

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 7:12:29 PM)
*A slight flinch* Ah.

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 7:14:56 PM)
and you? -he finishes up the drink now-

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 7:15:42 PM)
Cop. *Said softly*

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 7:16:15 PM)
well that's good... you protect the streets and stuff -he smiles a bit-

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 7:16:49 PM)
Yeah. Protect and serve, that's us.

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 7:18:16 PM)
well its an admirable thing to do -he offers then starts to get ready to go- i need to be going in a bit, nice meeting you though

Isabel Ross (Sep 5, 2010 7:20:17 PM)
Likewise.

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Sep 5, 2010 7:20:43 PM)
-luc heads out of the place then-
