Ohohohohohohohohohoho that was a face. Amazing, absolutely amazing- Kyne had expected a reaction but not full on face buried in hands bright red. He really didn't pull off the color as well as Kyne did, either. He gave a wink and a thank you to the server and then, chin resting in his palm, settled on a lazier grin at Sparky. Bright pink and purple eyes peeked over fingers and he was accused of taking advantage of the situation.
"Who, me?" he answered, not really actually trying ti deflect any because this was way more fun. Okay, this made up for the frustration when he'd saved Sparky from freezing up and from the unpleasantness of having to hide from his unwelcome follower. "Relax, that was a decent enough reaction, and I think it'll save us from being hovered around."
He really didn't think he was wrong. Barfy cutesy couples were the worst and from the way the server had slid off fairly quickly, Kyne didn't think she'd be back all too quickly. Moving to tuck his hands around his elbows and lean across the table (which, from out of earshot surely looked like sweet nothings were being whispered or something like that), Kyne added, "Any ideas on your end? I mean, I could keep this up all day if you really enjoy my company that much."

Well. Okay, Red had a point. The reaction, however kneejerk and not at all falsified it had been, was the excellent companion to ooey-gooey words (fucking schnookems......) to make anyone besides the two of them back way off. That was a blessing in itself when they needed all of the seclusion they could manage.
Leaning his head against his palm, though, he shot an incredulous look at the other man on the subject of enjoying his company. "Well, I'll give you this, you're certainly not boring, schnookems." No he couldn't get over that. He wouldn't get over that. A bit of an amused smile overtook his expression, before he glanced around to find the vaguely recalled face of the one who'd been following the dragon. After confirming they were rather safe for the moment, violets flickered back to the redhead.
"Mm, your stalker doesn't seem incredibly eager to break up a date yet, at least, so for now it's a good enough cover while we think. I'm gonna assume not SP. At least, for my own sake I hope not." His brow furrowed at that. Helping had been kind of impulsive, and even though it wouldn't be unlikely to cross a member of the SP's personal hit list as a vigilante, he'd... rather lay as low as he could in that regard. "As far as ideas go, I've got nothing at the moment."

Once Sparkly had gathered himself up enough, he shot back a response teasing at the dumb nickname Kyne had used. There was a smile to his face though - okay, he had a sense of humor on top of being able to partially turn into a tomato, noted.
"Aw, I'm flattered, lovey muffin," he shot back, way more amused than he should have been but oh well - if he was going to flee danger, he might as well have fun. It wasn't as imminent a danger right then, considering they had some time to plan an exit. Speaking of which, apparently the other had no ideas though a bit of concern over whether the guy tailing Kyne was the secret police. Somehow, Kyne figured that if he had been, they'd have been busted bad date or no. Though, it wasn't a lot of reassurance - he recognized the guy as someone he'd tangled with before, and he wasn't particularly kind and gentle, so getting caught and cornered would've been a bad time.
"Nah, just someone who doesn't like me a whole lot - let's leave it at that for now, shall we?" And oh was that a lovely long list of scumbags that would like to get back at him; Kyne had a habit of letting his own goals get in the way and meddling impulsively when it came to helping others. Maybe his doctor friend wasn't the only stupidly caring one. "Anyway - spotted an exit back through the kitchens, down by the bathroom. If we can get a good excuse to sneak out that way, we can be gone before he realizes where we went. Probably our best bet, but we need a way that he won't suspect anything too soon."
Well, that and not getting caught by the servers or kitchen staff. At least the servers seemed mostly occupied by the other customers but still - cover would be needed so they could get a head start.

Holy hell. Lovey muffin. This guy was absolutely ridiculous. Teddy was admittedly amused. He could get used to this -- wait, what, no, he didn't need to get used to this, he didn't need to get used to attractive funny trouble-prone dragons.No, he needed to work on figuring out the rest of their escape plan. Teddy had jumped in to help, and he was going to see this through to completion. The smile that had appeared lessened a touch, and he nodded at the confirmation that the guy was not secret police, which was a relief. He'd figured as such, but it was always nice for any potential lingering worries to be quelled."Sounds like a start, at least, honey bunch," Teddy commented, tapping his index finger against his cheek and smile returning faintly. A good excuse to sneak away... near bathrooms. Bathrooms were relatively private. Maybe they could -- oh. Hmm. The flush returned to his cheeks, and he turned his face a bit more into his hand. "Well, I'm sure if we gave off a certain implication, any curious onlookers would be deterred from chasing us. Understand?" His face quickly gave off the please don't make me come out and say it. Not that he'd be opposed to nO STOP RIGHT THERE, you knew he was trouble when he walked in.

After a small bit of joking, the conversation had turned into a more serious note - actually getting out without getting cornered. Kyne's suggestion of a possible exit route had been followed up with a thought that had apparently brought a tinge of redness to electronerd's cheeks. It took a moment for him to say enough that Kyne could realize what he meant but hey, that was probably an idea. Sneaking in near the bathrooms under the 'obvious' premise of some private space. Considering their cover so far, it made sense - and was probably really just a matter of making sure they walked the fine line between 'obvious enough not to be followed' and 'not getting immediately called out by the staff'.
"I like how you think," was all that he said, a grin sliding on his face as he realized what was going on and maybe a much less than innocent look, because Sparky had already started to flush at whatever he was thinking about and Kyne wanted to see if he would turn bright red again. "And I can give off all sorts of implications, trust me."
Now it was really just down to whether or not Sparky could put on a good enough show of it. From his reaction to things so far, though, maybe Kyne could help with it being a little authentic.

That was what he was afraid of. The incredibly less than innocent expression behind that grin made his cheeks burn a bit more than he would have liked to admit, and Teddy immediately glanced to the side. That was the sort of look that could put all sorts of thoughts into a guy's head, especially coming from a hot shot dragon. The accompanying statement didn't help, either.
"Oh, I believe you," he mumbled before glancing back at the redhead again. At the very least, Teddy was making a very convincing flustered boyfriend. Now, though, he was torn between show me your worst and how do I fake-come on to someone anyway. He dropped his hand onto the table, violets slowly shifting focus onto the other man after a beat. "Though if I'm honest, you have me kind of curious now."
Which... wasn't a complete lie. Or even slightly a lie. He leaned just a little farther on the table, an eyebrow raised and a curious look in his eyes. This was definitely a bad idea, definitely going to backfire, oh my god was he gonna regret this. But the line between convincing fake and actually he's kind of hot were a little blurry right now -- maybe the latter was the main reason he'd immediately helped the way he did.

Well, that was a reaction that inspired confidence. A little more red in his cheeks but the way he was talking seemed like he wasn't backing out of his own idea. Which was good - after all, it was legitimate cover for an escape.
"That so?" Kyne answered, leaning in as well. There was only so close to get with the table between them, but hey- if they didn't want the escape to be too obvious, had to make it look believable. "Well, I'm pretty good at the real thing too so there's always that."
A delayed wink was given, and unfortunately all there was to do was keep his attention on Sparky for now until there was a chance to steal a glance and find out how their friendly follower was doing. The mumble of the cafe covered up most of their discussion, though, and after a moment of thought he decided fuck it, make a move. The place looked like it was getting even fuller and he didn't want to delay too long and get actually caught and stopped by their server.
Up off his seat a bit, he leaned near enough to Electrojerk to make it a fairly incriminating half whisper before using the excuse of a nod in the direction of the back to cover a stolen glance at asshole-who-hated-him. Still stuck far away, kind of watching but not overtly. "Think we got a clear shot right now. "
Which was good for them because little known to either of them, it wouldn't be long until the server showed up and potentially broke apart their escape.

Teddy was starting to think he was putting himself in a position to not want to lose sight of this dragon again. The way the other leaned forward in response, the way he mentioned he was good at the real thing, the delayed wink. His immediate instinct was to snap back, but instead he took a steadying breath to hold his ground. Letting the redhead affect him would definitely help with the whole authenticity thing, but, god damn, he was frustratingly charming.
Apparently enough time passed between his internal conflict over whether to give the dragon another inch or not for their chance to arrive. Oh. Good, that was... good. "Right, time to go," Teddy nodded, slipping up from his seat and skirting nearer to the other man, waiting for him to stand -- but they wouldn't be getting too far because oops their server was back, desserts in tow."Oh, back so soon!" Teddy put on a surprised face, but his eyes flickered to the cake. Oh man. He really wanted the red velvet. It looked amazing and the sparkling in his eyes was an absolutely real reaction. "Those look almost as good as you do, don't they, sugarplum? I can't wait to dig into them, let's hurry back." With a sour taste in his mouth, Teddy immediately put on the most flowery innocent smile he could manage without being too obvious, and casually walked around the server. Oh, please buy it.
... He really wanted the cake, though. )'''''8 Stupid dragon idiot.

The moment that Sparky stood up and Kyne shuffled to do the same, their server returned with their orders. Great. Perfect. Immediately, though, electronerd played off it and looked as innocent as possible. Damn - that was a good swing away from the act a moment before, maybe there was some hope for him - though the way he looked at that cake was a little hopeless. There wasn't any hope for Kyne on the other hand, not really - because a thought occurred and after nodding and waving off the server (who just kind of rolled her eyes and walked off to deal with some more reasonable customers), he stood and leaned in towards his accomplice a bit.
"Definitely - wouldn't want things to get too hot and melt and make a mess all over the place - with the ice cream, I mean," He said with a wink. Perhaps he needed to be stopped, and one day he would be, but today was not that day. With that said, though, he took a few steps back out towards where their exit was, reaching out to tug him after by one of those loopy things he had going on hanging off his pants. That must have been what they were for, clearly. Quiet enough that it wouldn't carry, obviously enjoying Sparky's reactions so far and wanting to continue the trend, he added, "So, you gonna put your mouth where your money is?"
Was that horrible? Yes. Was he trying to not be horrible? Absolutely not this was so entertaining.

It seemed like his reaction worked like a charm, because the server was visibly kind of done with dealing with them pretty quickly. Teddy glanced back at the cake for a moment, briefly wondering if he could get away with at least a single bite -- but nope. Instead, the redhead was up and leaning near him, words falling from his lips in a way that was definitely overkill because who could even hear them at the moment?! The wink was the nail in the coffin, red staining across his cheeks as he took in a sharp breath.
Oh. Well. He. Ah. "I'm, I, of course," he breathed, biting his lower lip as he was tugged along. Oooh this asshole. Teddy was simultaneously annoyed and ... well, he wouldn't complain about the advances directly. Even when the comment about putting his mouth where his money was. Oh, my god. They were closer to the exit, but still a bit away, when Teddy reached out to grab the other's wrist. He yanked the redhead against him, back against the wall. Fine. Teddy could be convincing. They were close enough to the bathrooms to be out of eyesight for most, but just in case any curious onlookers were getting too daring in their pursuit (and maybe for his own guilty enjoyment) --
"How easy do you think I am?" he breathed, leaning forward to whisper words against the dragon's jaw (gee, Teddy, I dunno, you were falling for those terrible not-innocent words and definitely thinking not-innocent thoughts, and the fact part of you definitely is screaming "WHY DOES THIS HAVE TO BE FAAAAKE"). Stopping was detrimental to the whole "getting away" thing, but maybe this would make it look less like they were "trying" to get away to the guy following the redhead. If he was even still following. :'D
