You've reached Dr. Hermann Gottlieb. Leave your name, number, and business if you expect a return call. Thank you.

[It's likely only due to the drift that they can walk like this without any practice. But Newton matches his pace perfectly even with the tap of his cane and it's oddly simple. They do garner looks of course and much like holding hands, Hermann tries not to be too conscious of them]

It's your cliche scenario. Whichever one you'd prefer is agreeable.

It's yours, too, now. You're stuck with me and all my cliches. Well, you're stuck with my everything now, but specifically, this time, with my cliches.

[mathemagier]

I suppose I am.

[Though really, he's been stuck with Newton's 'everything' and vice versa since their assignment in Hong Kong.]

Alright, we'll go for the 'tea' then.

[Newt had been thinking 'since they first arrived in this world' but Hong Kong was equally accurate, and the thought makes him again excited for their trip. He needs to figure out how to hide the watch in his luggage.

He steers them down the mall towards the sushi place where they can pick up both their treats at once. Partway there, he just gets giddy thinking about he fact that they're stuck with each other. And that's good, that's really good, he thinks...except that Hermann probably wouldn't be dating him now if he hadn't basically...had Newt stuck so far in his head that Hermann felt that dating anyone else was impossible.

He tries to shake the rather persistent thought.]

I'm stuck with your cliches and stuff too, you know, so if you think of things you want to do as dates or whatever, you let me know. I'm cool with lots of stuff.
