[ It's before opening time, and Tidus has been waiting. Not directly in front of Rick's, figuring that a few benches down that loosely line the boardwalk between path and beach would be best. They face out, but he sits on the back of the seat, feet up until he spots the approaching figure to the bar, kicks himself off and lands on the walkway with a mostly empty chip cone in hand.

That gets trashed before he comes up to Nick, dressed in a track suit that looks like it got some recent use by the drying stain around the neckline of his shirt. Might as well make use of the nice scenery, and all. ]

Heya. You serve water at this time?

[ Is friendly joking normal and not-suspicious behaviour? Hopefully. ]

[not suspicious, but a little weird. but nick recognizes tidus from the heart's files she's been shown, and she outed herself to those who live in the dorms months ago, so she's used to them tracking her down by now. maybe that's why he's here, too. she'll find out sooner or later.]

Yeah, of course we do. C'mon in.

[she steps up to the door to the bar and presses her palm to the lock plate, unlocking the door with a soft click, then holds the door open for tidus to enter. the inside of the bar is dark and deserted, except for a single security light over the bar. once inside, she claps her hands twice and a section of lights turns on to provide another layer of soft illumination. she grins.]

I don't think I'm ever gonna get tired of that.

[she heads toward the bar, slipping behind it to retrieve a cold bottle of water from one of the refrigerators that lines the back walls.]

So, [she says, sliding the bottle across the bar to him,] what brings y'over here? I know you didn't just stop by to sample our famous bottled water.
