[ relax, jaune, she's not going to delete the photos of your precious oblivious love affair. though she does pause a little upon seeing the sheer number of them in the folder...
(she gets that weird, prickly feeling in the back of her neck again, the same feeling she got when she first spoke to ruby and yang here. that overwhelming, dreadful feeling that there's something big she's missing here.)
but she says nothing and simply deletes that last photo of herself (your thumb was in the corner btw, gj) before quietly handing his phone back to him. ]
As Ruby happens to be my roommate and partner, it's only logical she's already seen me in this uniform. [ pls. she's got nothing to hide from her friends, hmph. ]
[ she only nods once at his compliment, because of course she looks nice. if she's going to demean herself to this sort of servitude, she'd at least look good doing it! ]
Anywhere that's free, but please try to contain yourself... I'm fairly certain they'll throw you out if you make too much of a commotion.
[ of all the free things, it's straws he chooses to stock up on?
she sighs, just waving him down to his seat. ]
Just be quiet and still for thirty minutes, okay? [ she's actually forgotten why she invited you over in the first place... but she doesn't bother to linger, already turning on a heel to wander back towards the counter, pulling his order up quite easily. despite never having worked a day in her life, let alone in the food service industry, she seems to know her way around the business fairly well. of course that's all mostly due to her unwillingness to look like a fool, given she'd overprepared for both jobs.
when she comes back to his table, she supplies him with all that he'd requested for... and a single slice of angel food cake. ]
[ Sitting still for thirty minutes, it's a tall order but Jaune did promise to behave himself. When she returns with his order and the extra dessert, he's oddly touched. ]
Weiss... [ It's one of those rare times he doesn't know what to say right in the moment, so he only looks up at her from his seat. He's feeling a mix of... corny affection and confusion? He obviously didn't order this! However, the words do eventually come to his mind, and he delivers it in a rather playful tone. ]
I can't tell if you're being nice or you just screwed up my order. [ Which is it?? Both are almost impossible scenarios in his mind. ]
[ Soooo..... she made him her hero? SHE'S BEING NICE-- ]
Ah, so I'm like a bodyguard, protecting Weiss Schnee's thighs! I won't let you down, alright? I'm always happy to throw myself in front of any food that comes your way.
[ Because why not, it's free and it makes him feel useful! ]
You're right! Bodyguards don't go around announcing these things to everyone. This will be just between us!
[ He starts eating the cake, taking a spoon to his mouth, but continues talking as he chews his dessert. ] ...But y'know... [ munch, munch. ] ...it's okay to indulge sometimes, too. A small cake wouldn't ruin you! Not to me, anyway...
[ she doesn't respond for a moment, simply giving him a hard stare with tightly pursed lips. it's hard to tell whether or not she'd heard that last part... ]
Don't talk with your mouth full.
[ but it's probably for the best for both their sakes if they went on pretending like she didn't, anyway. ]

As for my order... I'd like a glass of water, two packets of sugar and... five straws! [ Those are all free, right? ]

Every employee gets a free pastry every shift they work. I'm obviously not about to eat it myself — that would go straight to my thighs.
