[ He's starting to see how Livio gets himself into these situations.
Cid reaches for his own cup, though he does take care not to burn himself. It's interesting that Livio had barely flinched, considering how hot it is, but that's something he files away for later.
He's receptive though, Cid will give him that, even despite Livio's grumbling. ]
Good lad. [ Sorry Livio, he talks to most guys like this. ] How soon can you start?
Aye, it's not that sort of work. [ Cid favors him with another quick grin. Isabelle would have just loved Livio. Would have made him rich, too, if he could ever get past that propensity toward blushing.
Cid makes his way over to the shelf, patting Livio on the shoulder as he passes. ] If you're eager to be on, go on. The tea's not so good you need to scald yourself to finish it.
[ He's not the sort of man who finds it easy to sit still, so he's going to find something to tinker with. Daylight's burning. ]
[ flushing again, predictably, at cid's grin and teasing. he's such an easy mark. ]
No, it's fine, I can stay an' finish this...
[ really, he'd prefer to delay going back to "work" as much as possible. even if that means burning himself. is cid even going to finish his own tea? ]

[ he's a little too shy to say the word "friend", but really, the gist is the same. he doesn't mind giving an extreme discount for a good price. ]
[ (which may be why he didn't have a lot of money to steal in the first place...) ]
I ain't teary-eyed!! [ defensively. someone's used to being teased about this ] But yeah, that sounds like a good deal ta me. Understood.
[ he takes a sip of his own tea, not minding that it's still a bit too hot ]
