(OOM (Canon): In which Cecil uses his show to work through personal questions.)

The front door bursts open.

One Cecil Palmer, radio host, practically pirouettes through the room, ending up leaning against the Bar with a ridiculous smile on his face.

"The next round's on me, alright?" He asks her, before ordering his usual mug of coffee - because clearly what this man needs is a pick-me-up.

"Lovely Carlos. My dear friend, I'm so happy to hear it." Sinric beams, "That sounds wonderful."

"Oh, it is." Cecil agrees fervently. "Now, I'll admit I don't really understand everything he said in his messages? But! The upshot is..."

He tries to pause for dramatic emphasis and then fails to really pause in his excitement.

"Carlos and I are going out for coffee tomorrow afternoon!!"

"That sounds like a wonderful place to start. And if you don't understand everything he's said, you can ask him to explain it." Getting people to talk about their passions is always a good place to start.

"And of course now I have to figure out what to wear - I mean, I don't want to be too casual, he's never seen me out of work attire before, but... I don't think being too formal would be good either. I mean, I don't want to scare him off." Cecil dithers, clutching his coffee mug.

"The Bar can be very generous with clothing, if you'd like some help selecting something?" Sinric loves to dress up so he's happy to play.

"That would be amazing. Bar, how accurately can you copy my closet at home?" Cecil asks curiously, and beams when he is presented with the wrist warmers his niece knit for him last year for one of her scouting badges.

Sinric laughs warmly. "How lovely. Bar, would you be so kind as to send Cecil's wardrobe to my room?"

He holds out a hand to Cecil. "Would you care to come up to my room and explore options?"
