The Perk- Wednesday morning

The barista was currently in a fight with her significant other on her phone, and the whole coffee shop was currently hearing about it.

Rey stayed out if the personal lives of people she didn't know. It wasn't any of her business. So she'd taken a seat at the other end of the coffee shop with the giant ancient book she'd come here to read and the hope that she might be able to focus. Instead she was stopping mid sentence a lot, and forming opinions based on what she was hearing. She didn't know this girl at all but she was really proud of her for standing her ground, and she definitely deserved better.

...Reading wasn't going so well.

“No,” Liam shook his head. “He’s too cash-motivated for that.” And yet that statement was said with a certain fondness.
thatwaslucky: (ooh?)

"Ahh, that type," Rey said with a little smile.

“Yeah,” Liam grinned. “He was the one who set me up with stuff like a place to live. And, uh. Clothes. But only because the person who’d been leading the Resistance at that time paid him an absurd amount of money to.”

"And you became friends through that?" she asked.
firstofitskind: (i hear you)

“Kind of through forced association,” Liam nodded. “He wasn’t too thrilled about playing babysitter, but as long as he was being paid,” he shrugged. “And he’s a brilliant hacker, so he got called on to do jobs for us a lot.”

"Is that like a work friend?"

Rey had never had one of those.
firstofitskind: (amused)

"Pretty much exactly like a work friend," Liam confirmed.

Liam had never had anything but those, at least until Fandom. Which was kind of what happened when you didn't actually have a life outside of work.

"He was one of the only people who both knew what I was and wasn't afraid of me, so," he shrugged. "Yeah, he only hung around me at first because he was getting paid, but at least he was honest about it, you know?"
