[ ohhhhh boy. he's just sort of watching vash crumble like a house of cards and patting him on the shoulder. there there. ]
They have blended drinks. Can't even taste the coffee in them. But uh. You're totally worthy. [ he thinks. help. ] If you want a treat, we'll get you a treat.
I can protect you without ordering for you! [ which is what he's doing? he's lingering around once they're in the cafe and kind of glowering at the mimes while vash studies the menu. never mind, why did he come back. at least coffee's good. ]
[ LOUD, CONFIDENT PROTEST. The mimes all dramatically turn and Vash forces them to crouch together, hidden by the brick supporting the storefront window. ]
The mimes, Vash! [ a panic-whisper as they crouch, but he waits a few moments before he gently peers over the ledge to look inside. the mimes loom, staring at the window curiously and almost beckoning them inside. ]
Okay. What did you remember? [ maybe the mimes will leave them alone if they just. order their coffee and LEAVE. ]
Think you can get it done in 10 seconds or less? We might cause bigger problems if we just suddenly appear out of nowhere. [ squinting. ] Either that or we just beat them at their own game.

I wouldn't go that far. You still have to put in the order yourself. I'm just going along for, uh, emotional support.

[ But they can inch to the mime cafe. Vash is smart enough to take a picture of the menu from the distance and zoom in on it on his phone. ]

Jonas... I'm indecisive, suddenly?!

What do you mean, I thought you were looking at the menu! I can't pick for you--what if you hate what I get you?
[ the worst is that he's feeding right into this without meaning to, it's fine. ]

[ Vash peeks over to see the mimes and instantly goes back down. ]
God, they're terrifying. Want to just turn invisible and see if we can order without them seeing us?
