[Harry chuckles-- maybe the first time he laughed all week-- and casts Peggy a sidelong glance as their barista approaches with a tea tray.]
Then between us, I wouldn't expect much from this brew. They simply don't have the knack for it over here, you know.
[Harry sounds pleasant enough about it, but the tea is certainly no joke. As for fresh British faces in a sea of an American tourist area, that's a relief he can relate to as well.
Harry quietly thanks the barista and takes his cup of tea. His fingers expertly dart between dispensers on the table for sugar and cream. This blend would be needing it.]
I must admit, I'm surprised to hear that from a charismatic woman such as yourself.
[But only to an extent. A lot of imPorts could be quite cynical towards newcomers, or just general positivity vacuums.]
But if you don't mind the company of an old man, I'd be delighted.
[But she takes the other cup of tea from the tray, offering the barista a grateful smile. Peggy selects some cream and sugar for herself, opening the packets and puts them into her tea, stirring them with a spoon.]
You're not old. Just older. [That being said, she doesn't have any idea how much older than her he was. But then she hasn't told Harry her age either.]
Charismatic. I've certainly been called the opposite. [Her smile grows softer for a moment before she sets the spoon down at the side of her cup.]
