It was exhilarating, was it not? The human connection.

"Ah, quite the noble profession and one that requires much diligence and dedication," he praised. He had once considered such a path, but the energies pushed him elsewhere and far from the usual well organized and clean office spaces that were usually associated with the profession. He did, however, have a degree of sorts in the field. "I myself serve as a life coach and the fulfillment of seeing those who have come seeking your council is like no other. To pay forward all the blessings of this world." Most who knew of his past were often startled by how he maintained such a positive and optimistic look on life, but that too was a blessing. "Who is James?" he inquired, Noah's clear passion over the bond between the two being something that clearly needed expansion and to be shared. "And I promise to visit the coffee shop sometime. Soon. I'll even bring Poppy along if you think the establishment will accept her."

Once again, the duellist's smile broadened and he nodded. "I had noticed, though I never tire of hearing about it."


Noah thought that his sister would kill him if he had the opportunity to visit a ranch(an animal farm) and didn't accept it. He'd just tell her, and that would make it impossible to not go through with the whole thing, and then he'd be motivated to find the time! He smiled at the idea, then carefully sidestepped the shoulder squeeze. Other people touching him, even for harmless shoulder squeezes, was something he avoided whenever he could and Jericho might have noticed a change in his aura for a little while. Dimmer, maybe. Or darker, or something. "So we both are looking to pay it forward, then." Noah had suffered a lot in life but he was in a good enough place, and it bothered his heart when others weren't. That's why he always took care of his sister. That's why he took care of everyone. That's why he tried to be kind and helpful all the time. He just wanted to make people okay-er than they were before. "James is my best friend! He works at the coffee place too and he's good at both best-friending and making coffee." James was Noah's favorite, and they'd always relied on each other when they needed it. "We've been friends since the first day of Hogwarts." James always stuck by him even when he wasn't acting himself, and Noah never let anyone bully James. Ever. And they were practically inseparable. Jericho had to meet him! It was the rules! "Poppy could come but I doubt she'd be allowed in. She'd be allowed to come if you ate outside, or I guess if she were a service animal." Other than that, probably not.
