Maid in Shibuya [Invite Only!]

Post by Asher on Apr 21, 2017 4:26:45 GMT
Standing by the back door as his break neared its end, the redhead found himself staring up at the sky. Maybe it would rain again today. That would be refreshing, wouldn't it? Asher could always go for a day of staring out the windows, and eventually leaving in the rain. Of course, he would have to wait for his shift to actually end to see if a walk in a downpour, or even just a mist, would happen.
Slipping back into the building, the teen adjusted his vest while glancing at the time. Technically, he still had a few more minutes, but it was getting really boring to be left alone with his own thoughts! He may as well do something productive!
Not that there was much productive to do. While gloomy days usually brought in guests, the cafe was surprisingly barren. On the restaurant floor, Asher found himself looking at a mostly empty room, with one of the maids playing Monopoly at the only occupied table. It had to be a bad sign, if the waitstaff offered to play a game that could span literal hours!
Heading to the small podium in front of the door, Asher ran a gloved finger down the side of a deck of cards sitting upon it. This shift was just going to drag wasn't it? Ugh. He could be doing way cooler things! Like flying around colorful worlds and talking to his cat!
...Asher was actually kind of boring, wasn't he? Who else would rank 'talk to my cat' on the top ten things to do at this very moment? With any luck, a customer would come in soon enough, to relieve the butler from his boredom.

KA-BOOM!
Wait, no. There's no explosion. That might bring some interest to everyone's day. Instead a particularly short caucasian fifteen year old boy steps through the door and looks around. If there's one word to describe his style of dress it would be...'shiny'. A form-fitting black t-shirt with a vintage-style Godzilla posted printed on the front in reflective metallic materials. A wristband covered in shiny silver studs. What looks suspiciously like a low-quality diamond stud in his left earlobe. He tugs at the strap of his backpack and glances at the table with the ongoing Monopoly game. ...Maybe this isn't the right place for him. Oh! But there's a cute boy here! ...Maybe 'boy' isn't the right word. He looks like he's at least one or two years older and...the better part of a foot taller than him. Tadashi winces a little and rubs the back of his neck before clearing his throat and stepping forwards, "Hi, uh," ... "C-can I get...?" ...This might've been a mistake. He'd never really visited a cafe like this before. Does it work like a regular cafe? Are there special rules? He doesn't seem nervous exactly. More... unsure of what he's maent to be doing. Like whether he should've already invoked the names of the Old Ones. Hm. That might be an idea. "Uh. Sorry. I'm a little..." Stupid, "w-words," ...12/10 for effort. Then again, it's too late to leave now. Impossible. |

If only there had been an explosion! That would have been so exciting! Instead, there was a very metallic person now in the room. Huh. Well, that worked too! Not all entertainment came in the form of explosions, right?
Adjusting his posture, the butler curled his fingers around the deck of cards. This boy didn't seem to be a regular. In fact, he seemed to have no idea what he was doing! Feeling his smile growing too wide at an urge to snicker, Asher lightly bit down on his tongue and gave a small bow. Nervous girls, he was used to. Nervous guys? Not as much! But, there was nothing wrong with a new experience!
Don't laugh at the customer. Do not! "Welcome home, Master," he hummed, warmly. Oh, good, there wasn't any laughter yet! What was this guy so worried about? Judgement? From a guy pretending to be a butler? Yeah, right.
While straightening his back, eyes glanced over the rims of his glasses, trying to observe some sort of expression on the customer's face. Oh, except Asher was pretty blind without looking through the lenses. Stupid plan! "Are you planning for any guests to join you, or will it just be you tonight?"
Why did it feel so hard to be formal, today?
Making a small gesture to follow, the teen turned on his heel, motioning for the guest to follow him. "What kind of drink suits your tastes?" Fancy. Yes. Great wording, Asher. Just keep saying weird things. "Coffee? Hot chocolate?" Continued attempt to mask a grin provided an additional quip of, "green or herbal tea is always good to ease nerves. And to help with words." Oh, come on! Don't risk sounding like you're teasing the guy!

Master, huh? He could get used to that. From his soldiers at least. But no, he was lucky if Flamemon didn't just stab him in the kidney to get his attention. What a Digital Dork.
"Oh, uh, th-thanks," Tadashi smiles a little. Well, should Asher be suddenly struck by the light at a certain angle and have temporary perfect vision, he'd note that Tadashi looks a little...amused. He's amused at the whole situation. Maybe the brief embarassment was worth coming in here and having a cute guy call him 'master'. "No, it's just me. I ha-have some time to kill, and I've been meaning to c-come in here for a little while,"
He follows along after Asher, occasionally glancing around at an empty table or a decoration somewhere in the room. His focus snaps back as he realizes the guy is speaking to him again. Whoops!
"Pay attention," A quiet feminine voice speaks from his back pocket. Wonderful. Way to go, subtelty.
"I am," He whispers, before flashing a smile at Asher...just in turn for his cheeks to flush as red as the 'maid's' hair, "Oh. Uh. I s-suppose herbal tea, please," Way to avoid looking insane, Tadashi. Now it looks like you're talking to yourself.
This is going swimmingly.

Thanks? For wha- Oh yeah. That was a totally normal response to a greeting like that. Asher's head really wasn't in the game today, was it? Focus!
Looking through his glasses, like a normal person should, he only managed to catch the expression for a moment before having turned to guide the other teen to a table. "Well, I'm glad that you decided to visit me," Asher hummed, flashing a smile as he glanced over his shoulder. Oh, come on. Was he seriously going to try flirting with his male guests, too? Classy.
For a second, the spirit user thought that he had heard another voice, but brushed it off as his own insanity. At least, until the other boy... responded to it? Okay, yeah, Asher was definitely imagining things. Maybe it was just a noise from a cell phone. Or entirely the redhead's imagination. It was hard to tell!
Conveniently stopping at an empty table at the same time, the butler gave a curious look. "I'm sorry; did you say something?" Maybe this guy just liked talking to himself. Wasn't that often a trait of someone who was lonely? Or a trait of crazy people.
A menu was placed on a booth, to help indicate that this was definitely where they were stopping. On the item was a list of various warm and cold drinks, sweets and desserts, and lunch-like items such as sandwiches. "Is this acceptable, Master?" Was it tacky to call him master? Better question, why was Asher wondering that after having this job for almost a year? Who cared if it was tacky! It was part of the theme!
Trying to hide a grin only worked so well. At the agreement to tea, it settled at a contented smirk. "Fantastic choice." Did this guy even actually like tea? Or was he just agreeing with one of the easiest options? One way to test it. Asher was curious to see how much stumbling over words and bright red expressions could take place, after all. It was exciting! At least, considering the otherwise boring day, it was exciting. Certainly not the same excitement as getting abducted by aliens. Or explosions. "Do you have a preference for the flavor?" If one were to look at the menu, it seemed the list of options were... quite overwhelming. Why did the owners put so much effort into just tea?

Flirting with strange boys? Well! Two can play at that game, Asher! Tadashi seems to regain a little of his confidence as he flashes a charming smile at the waiter...host...uh. Guy. "But of course. You made a v-very attractive window display, I just had to come in and s-see you for myself," Hm. Well. You get marks for effort, but not for execution. Better luck next time, Tadashi.
He shakes his head, "Nothing. Sorry. Just t-talking to myself. It helps me keep my thoughts organized. And I n-need all the help I can get with a distraction as pretty as you around," Well, that was...better? Maybe?
The teen settles into the booth, setting his back by his side and pulling a few things out of his pockets to avoid sitting on them. A plastic deck holder for what are presumably trading cards, and a large white cellphone device covered in odd glyphs are set on the side of the table carefully. Kid has weird choice in accessories.
...Then again, he'd realized pretty quickly that a deck holder was essential now that he was carrying sixty-plus cards around with him for his Xros Loader. Yeah. On the first day he'd had them, most of them had blown out of his pocket when he'd reached for one, and they'd spent the best part of the day combing a forest for them.
What a mess. Which is ironic, because so is Tadashi himself. Y'know. Psychologically. Hah.
Tadashi glances at the menu, his eyes widening as they travel down the seemingly endless list of nonsense. Wow. This was overwhelming, to say the least. His eyes flicker up to examine his host's appearance before he prepares his next answer, "I've always been pretty partial to g-ginger," he smirks. Oh. Like red hair. Hah. That's...that's awful. I hate you. "But, I'm guessing you know the menu better than me. What would you recommend...?" Hm. What should he be calling him. If he's 'master', should the taller boy be 'slave'? Perfect. Yes.

Wait, what? Was this guy actually going to play along? That was unexpected! Asher had fully anticipated flustered mess or try to brush it off! "I certainly hope I don't disappoint." Performance was everything, after all!
There was a pause in the redhead's act, as he found himself unable to contain a small chuckle. Pretty? Lowering his head to hide his face for a second, Asher recomposed himself and returned to his smile. "My apologies," he began, bringing white gloved hand up to cover his mouth. He was supposed to be the amusing one! But his guest was definitely succeeding at outdoing him thus far! In... what, exactly, it was hard to tell. "Should I try to be less distracting?" Not possible! Maybe, he should just be more distracting!
Yellow eyes flickered to the items being placed on the table. An interesting choice of items, it seemed. Unfortunately, Asher had no clue what the 'cellphone' was beyond a block of weird markings. Otherwise, that might have made for another ice breaker! Cards were a much easier subject, however. "Are you a fan of games?" No. He just carried cards around because they made him look cool.
Okay, Asher had to give him credit for that really 'awful' line. "Then, I'm in luck," the butler responded, with a playful tone. It was a wonder that the ginger comment hadn't just gone right over his head! Asher acted airheaded enough for it to! Recommendations were tough, though! "Ginger is always a good choice." Of course a ginger's going to defend that statement! "Though, we also have an apple-cinnamon flavor," the teen added, almost as an afterthought, "sweet, with a slight spice. I feel like it might suit you." Just no. At least he didn't go for some option like 'passion fruit' or whatever, right? That would be a lot less subtle!

Tadashi glances around. It seems relatively empty, "Well. How could I complain with such ch-charming, attractive company for the afternoon?" he smiles again. Oh yes. That's right, Asher. Tadashi can play this game just as well as you. Assuming that's what he's doing. Hm. What a weird kid.
"Ah, I'm not sure you could avoid b-being distracting. No matter where you st-stood, I'm sure my eye and mind would be drawn to you," He winks for added emphasis. Take that, Asher! Huh. Maybe he should activate one of his modify cards. Maybe there's one that makes people blush.
"Mm? Oh! The cards! I am, yes," That seems like an easy cover. Not that he doesn't like games, but he's not sure how else he'd explain what he's carrying around. Then again, he managed to get away with calling the Digimon in his Xros Loader a video game once, when they wouldn't shut up. "Are you?" What? He might as well get to know the eye-candy a little better. Uh. Wait. No. Butler. Maid. Whatever he is!
Asher might act airheaded, but Tadashi has a feeling that he isn't! The redhead isn't the only one who puts on such an act from time to time. Except Tadashi probably has far more sinister motives when he does it. Like murder. Or kidnapping. Or stealing the last cookie.
...Sweet with spice, huh?
Tadashi has to give the guy credit. He knows what he's doing when it comes to cringeworthy flirting. "That sounds fantastic, j-just like the company," his grin broadens, "I'm surprised you didn't s-suggest the passion fruit, though," He has to break the flirting (and the fourth wall, apparently) for a moment to chuckle quietly. "Quiet day, hm?" He winks again, "Lucky m-m-me,"

The guest was way too good at this game! Or, uh, whatever they were going to call this sort of conversation! Asher needed to find some way to up his own game! Or, just let that kind of thing come naturally. "Well, if you were to complain," the redhead hummed, thoughtfully, "I'd have to treat you with extra care." Not that this wasn't already planned! Asher had literally no other customers to tend to!
Flirting confirmed! Nobody winked after saying something like that for no reason! Unless there was dust in his eye, of course. "I guess I'll just have to be the best distraction I can, then." Not that it should be difficult! Asher was great at being distracting! Whether a good thing or not, however, was actually in question.
It almost sounded like, for a moment, the boy had forgotten that he had just set out a deck of cards! Now, Asher wasn't that distracting, was he? "I am," he smiled, resisting any urge to inquire on what cards were in the deck holder. That would just be rude! "Do you have any favorites?" Okay, now it sounded more like nerdtalk than anything else. But, interest was the best way to show... interest!
At least this would be an easy order to remember! "I'm sure you won't regret it," he assured. "Both the tea and the company." Maybe, if it wasn't unprofessional for a butler to wink at someone, he would have taken the opportunity to return the gesture. "Passion fruit's not a bad choice. But, you deserve something a little more creative." After all, one was expected! The other was easier to be a little random! And, anyone that had a conversation with Asher would quickly learn that random was more likely than a cliche.
"Very quiet," the teen agreed. While normally, that would make it awfully boring, Asher was suspecting that the next little while would at least show some promise. "That just means that I have plenty of time to tend to your," there was a pause, while yellow eyes flickered to look around the room, while a slightly cocky smile began at the corners of his lips, "needs."
Lightly tapping fingers on the table, the butler quickly followed up with, "now, if you'll excuse me, Master, I'll be right back with your tea." Providing a small bow, the spirit user disappeared to the back, preparing tea and placing it on a tray with sugar and honey in containers to the side of it.
Resisting the urge to make himself coffee while waiting for the tea to steep, the young man paused to pull out his digivice and click at the buttons for a second. This served absolutely no purpose, aside from something to pass the time while not using his phone on the clock. Phones and 'toys' were two totally different things, as far as the rules were concerned!
Once everything was done, and pretty, the butler returned to the table with tea tray in hand. "Sorry for the wait, Master," Asher hummed, while placing the item on the table, "would you like me to add anything to your tea for you?" Don't make a joke about how 'hot' it was. Do. Not.

Tadashi laughs playfully, thumbing the corner of his deck holder as the other talks. Boy, this waiter's pretty good at playing 'the game' as well. Maybe he'll have to come back here again for the entertainment value alone. "Extra care, you say? Then c-consider this an official c-complaint," he teases with an amused smirk. Haha. You lunatic.
"Games? I like most kinds of g-g-games," Tadashi smiles, opening the deck case and pulling out a card, setting it face-up on the table. "Unless you meant cards, in which c-case, this one. I haven't had it l-long, but it seems pretty reliable. What kind of games do you like?" Sure. Why not.
"Tend to my needs, hm?" Tadashi quirks a brow, matching Asher's smile with an equally cocky one of his own, "Well, I'll t-try not to be too demanding. Then again, your presence alone m-might be entertainment enough to occupy my f-full attention," Hm. That might've come off a little insulting, Tadashi. Or a little confused. Nevermind.
Tadashi waits patiently while Asher fetches the tea. He's pretty taken with this place. It's charming in an old-fashioned sort-of way. The staff seem to have fun with it, too. Either that or they're better liars than he thought. ...Either-or.
When the boy returns with his tea, he puts his best smile back on and bows his head gratefully, "Thank you. Please, don't apologize. Add anything? Ah, n-no. I'm sure that'll all be fine. Thanks very much for the s-suggestion of the tea, uh..." He pauses, "...I don't believe I got your name. I'm s-sure it can't be as alluring as your eyes, but if w-we're going to talk, I'd like to know it,"
That's reasonable. And creepy.

Post by Asher on May 2, 2017 10:14:53 GMT
A 'complaint', huh? That was no surprise, considering! But, Asher had to at least pretend it was! "I see," playful tones laced otherwise distressed words, "I'll definitely have to spend extra time with you, then. After all, I'd love for you to want to visit me again, in the future." That wasn't even a joke! This was kind of fun! And, the perfect way to pass the time. Who would have thought?
It was also, surely, an interesting way to pass the time. Maybe these cards were going to open up an entirely different perspective on the guest! "Any games, really," he responded, while examining the creature on the card. Oh, the world had to be fooling with him. Digimon was a card game, too? What next? A several-season anime and some video game? Not even thinking about how rude it would be to touch a customer's property, the butler tapped his gloved index finger under the word 'Digimon.' "I didn't know they came in card form." Yellow eyes lifted from the Etemon, to curiously stare at Tadashi. These people came in all forms, didn't they? Not that he was even sure that the guest knew what he was referring to! For all Asher knew, there were actually Digimon cards for sale for the general public!
Realizing that he shouldn't be touching someone else's property, hands were quick to clasp behind his back to prevent further incident. "I imagine I'd like that card game. I'd hate to be a bother, but would you be willing to explain the cards to me a little, after I've brought your drink?" It was impossible to not be forward about a question like that! Asher really hated when he felt like he was imposing on someone! But the curiosity would eat him alive if he didn't.
It was a little easier to avoid feeling weighted from his own request, when he was busy 'playing' on the job, of course! "Feel free to be as demanding as you'd like," Asher encouraged, clearly not insulted by the boy's statement. "I am here for your entertainment, after all." And being entertainment just so happened to entertain the butler, so everything worked out perfectly!
Tadashi was definitely an easy customer to please. No additions to the tea? Huh. It was still less surprising than Elliot's love of black coffee, at least! "I hope you'll like it. If it doesn't suit your taste, I'll gladly make ginger tea for you, instead," he offered, lightly. After all, he couldn't just expect someone to love his suggestions every time he gave them! Now folding his hands in front of him, to avoid any other accidental touching of the guest's belongings, the redhead tilted his head to the side a little. His name. Oh, right. That could be important, couldn't it?
Providing a small bow, the butler thought about his wording for a second. "Ah, I forgot to introduce myself?" Of course he did. He was busy flirting. "I must have gotten distracted," he admitted, a little too cheerfully. There was no question on who had distracted him, too. But, what could he say? Enjoyable things were easy to get sidetracked from. "My name's Asher." Now, the actor found a dilemma of not knowing his customer's name. It was always a strange feeling when other people knew his name, but he had no idea of theirs! Then again, was that really any different from his last job? "On the subject of names, is 'Master' alright to call you? Or, would you prefer something else?"

"I'm starting to think I might like to c-come back as well. Such attentive, attractive staff," Tadashi smirks. Asher's as good at playing the game as he'd hoped. Maybe even a little better.
He pauses as he thinks about what Asher just said. It isn't until his drink is brought before him that eh responds to it, "...In card form?" Interesting phrasing. "Ah, yes, they do. I b-bought these ones at a d-delightful little shop," Hm. He should test this guy! Given how often he runs into other Tamers, Generals or whatever else...it's not impossible that this guy's one of them, "The game's relatively ea-easy. It's just...attack p-points. Defense points. Power-up cards. You're more than w-welcome to look through my d-deck, but it's incomplete at the moment," He'd found you actually could play a game with these cards. A little pointless with how rare they were, but. "I can't remember the sh-shop name. Terminus-something," Take that!
The redhead's here for Tadashi's entertainment, is he?
Maybe he should try and get him to perform a shirtless version of 'The Hills Are Alive' from The Sound of Music whilst dancing on the table with an umbrella in his hand. What? That's a perfectly reasonable request. "Well. J-just keep being as charming as you have been, maybe occasionally flash me that dazzling smile, and I'll have nothing to complain about," Sigh.
As for the tea...well. Perhaps if his drink choices were more representitive of him as a person, he'd've asked for a milkshake, coffee, tea, the blood of seven children, and a liquified turkey sandwich, and then fused them together. Probably with lots of lights, noise and explosions. What a ridiculous child.
He picks up the cup and takes a sip, a smile coming to his face, "Hey. That is n-nice. You're clearly a man of excellent t-taste," Well. That can't be entirely accurate, Tadashi. Not if he's flirting with you, even jokingly. Fool.
"Asher, hm?" Tadashi considers, taking another sip of his coffee, "That's...a very unusual n-name. I can't say I've ever heard it before. I do l-like unusual, though," Creep. "Ah, my apologies. M-my name's Tadashi, but you can call me whatever y-y-you like," Sigh. It's not like a 'Asher' is any weirder than 'Tadashi' for a caucasian kid. Stop trying to justify your own nonsense.
Tadashi leans back in his chair and eyes the other, trying desperately to think of some kind of conversation topic. He's really not sure what's appropriate here...

A delightful little shop? That had already caught the young man's interest! It was just vague enough, after all. Still, Asher was fully capable of seeing how this could be played out as a regular card game. "Sounds pretty easy to learn," he commented, while trying to figure out the actual purpose behind the cards. Maybe they really were just regular cards! Except, that dismissal went right out the window when a name was mentioned. "Ah, I know where you're talking about!" That still didn't really explain the weird cards! But whatever. Who needed full details? "I've never actually gone shopping there, but my cat's pretty fond of the place." Probably because his cat wasn't actually a cat at all!
Request-wise, that was pretty easy. At least Asher didn't have to do anything particularly intricate! Of course, requesting a smile would only warrant one to provide exactly that. Not even intentionally! Giving a soft chuckle, the redhead's smile remained on his lips, "You're certainly easy to please." Which was a good thing! Nobody wanted overly demanding customers!
Another good thing was the appreciation of his choice in beverages. "Of course." Way to sound cocky! Or, at least for a second. "After all, I'm quite fond of you." Would that just mean that Tadashi had awful taste, in turn, for wanting to deal with Asher's comments like that? That was just bad! Or, maybe it was just proof that Asher had awful taste, if he dared to try to use that as flirting.
It wasn't as strange to hear that others were unfamiliar with his name. It wasn't particularly common, he didn't think! Then again, his entire name was kind of a jumble of uncommon. "As I'm sure you can tell, I'm not from around here." That was a given. How many redhead boys were raised in Shibuya? "Tadashi?" Of course, Asher just had to see how the name rolled off his own tongue! "I like your name." But, as for calling him whatever he'd like? How about 'cute'? No, keep that one in your head! "If it's alright with you, I'll continue using 'Master' for now. I'd hate to be too informal." Oh, because flirting was totally considered formal to begin with! Maybe, Asher just wanted to know the guy's name.
Uncertain, himself, on what to discuss, the teen glanced over the table again. Oh, right, there was still that weird looking thing that had been brought out with the cards. Normally, skimming through his customer's belongings was beyond him, but it wasn't Asher's fault that Tadashi put it on display like that! "Forgive all the questions," he began, in hopes that the topic wouldn't get annoying too quickly. "Can I ask, what kind of device is that?" Generally, Asher wouldn't have these kinds of conversations in such an open place! ...Except, there was still a total of one other table being occupied, and they most definitely weren't paying attention to the boys. Surely, there was no better time to be a bother!

His cat is pretty fond of the place. "Your cat, hm?" Tadashi chuckles, "Well. M-maybe I'll show you how to play s-sometime, then. This isn't really a suitable 'venue' for it, th-though," Hopefully that conveys his meaning well enough. As amusing as it might be to summon up Deckerdramon and slap some wings on him in the busy of a crowded street. Wait...amusing? Is that the word he means?
No.
Crazy. That's the one.
"Crazy that I'm always r-running into so many people that know where I mean though. ...That p-place. The mall," Whatever he said. He's already forgotten. A wry smile crosses his face at the other's words, "Easy to p-please, huh? I can think of plenty of people who'd disagree w-with you, Asher," Nobody important though. Only Tadashi's opinion mattered, after all.
Fond of him, huh? "Ah, well. You have excellent t-taste in short boys with speech impediments then," He agrees wholeheartedly, "I am certainly the best of that very niche category of p-people in your lovely cafe today," Tadashi glances around, "What made you want to work in p-place like this, anyway?" Maybe just money. "Do you l-like working here?"
How many redheaded boys were raised in Shibuya? Not enough for Tad's liking, it seemed. "Would it be incorrect of m-me to ask where you're from?" He seriously has no idea what the protocol is here. "Ah, you do? Th-thanks," The boy flashes a dazzling smile at the compliment, "I u-used to hate it. People always gave me funny looks when I gave my name for whatever r-reason. Caucasian kid called Tadashi," he shrugs. "Master, hm? Well. It certainly appeals to my ego, s-so...I can't complain too much," he teases.
"Please, ask all the questions you like. It's nice to t-talk to someone," Someone that isn't crazy or an enormous dragon, anyway. "Someone with such a d-delightful accent," That too. He runs his fingers over the black and white casing of the device sitting on the table, "It's a Xros Loader, a, uh," He takes a breath, "Digivice," Moment of truth, right?

"Mhmm," the butler hummed, confirming again on the cat bit. What else was a Meicoomon going to be called? Aside from, well, a Meicoomon. But as far as the suggestion for cards? "That sounds wonderful." And probably dangerous. But, hey, Asher was never one to be concerned about the dangers of just about anything! What was there to actually be worried about? It wasn't like Tadashi would murder him, or something!
Or, uh, at least Asher hoped that wasn't that case.
It was an interesting thing, though, how many people knew about Digimon. It felt like whenever Asher met someone knew, they had some sort of affiliation with the strange creatures! Then again, he had been spending a decent amount of time in the Digital World, which may have something to do with the people knowing about them. "Maybe the universe is trying to bring us together," the redhead suggested, with a cheesy smile. Oh, that was so bad! Who even joked like that?
But, joking aside, the teen couldn't ignore that others would disagree about such a thing! "Oh? You're my," don't say easiest, "most enjoyable company, today." Yes. Enjoyable. Much better word choice! Nobody wanted to be called 'easy'! Or, did they? Hm. Probably not.
Lightly clicking his tongue to the roof of his mouth, Asher gave a small smirk, "perhaps, that's my preference." Perhaps, Asher was just insane. It was hard to tell some days! Or, every day, really. But, the redhead certainly couldn't complain about someone being shorter than him! And the speech certainly had its own charm. It was kind of cute! Giving a small glance around the room when Tadashi did so, smirk turned to a much more calmed smile. "I adore working here," he chimed, earnestly, "I've always enjoyed working with people." The outfit was rather nice, too! "I like to see people smile." And, this job was very good for that! Unless there was a day with only horridly angry customers, which was practically unheard of! Though, did real people actually answer questions like that? It sounded rather fake, didn't it? With any luck, his Master would realize that Asher was being entirely honest with his answer!
Soon, Asher gave a small shrug, though the smile remained on his lips. "Probably," he admitted, only to follow up with, "--if you had a different butler." Since when did Asher care about secrecy on that level? "With me, you can ask whatever you'd like." Maybe that would make the stuttering boy a little less nervous about questions! "I'm from California." While some States might require emphasis on what country it came from, the redhead would hazard a guess that, of most of the options, California would be one of the more recognizable places! "Los Angeles, mostly." Hopefully, this wouldn't involve needing to pull up a map on one of their phones, to specify just where that was. Now, that would make it a little awkward!
Tadashi had a nice smile, didn't he? This was certainly a change from how Asher had expected his day to go. "Unique names add character," he hummed, with a smile. Even if unique was only a matter of what was expected for someone's nationality! "It sounds nice, and it belongs to you. Which, I'd say are great reasons to like the name."
It was definitely relieving to know that all the inquiries weren't going to become annoying! On top of that, apparently Asher's accent wasn't too terrible! One had to wonder if some native speakers of the language found American accents to be obnoxious. But, a Xros Loader? "I haven't heard of that one before," he admitted, curiously. Maybe they weren't as common as tamers or spirit users! "Do you have a partner, or..?" How did something like that even work? Asher wasn't really sure of the capabilities of Digimon! And, what the heck was 'Xros'?
