Poxuist & Merlot
Merlot
Hey Poxuist, you ever notice how the quietest coffee shop can feel like a stage for the most heartfelt monologues? I swear the espresso shot is a dramatic climax.
Poxuist
Yeah, it's like a tiny stage where everyone's got a solo. The espresso’s the finale, if you ask me.
Merlot
Absolutely, and that espresso is the applause at the end of a day’s worth of dramatic pauses. I just hope my next cue doesn’t fade into the background.
Poxuist
Just keep sipping, and the spotlight’ll stay wherever you want it to.
Merlot
Ah, but even the spotlight can slip between the fingers of an old director. Still, I’ll keep sipping and hope it stays.
Poxuist
Sure thing, just enjoy the brew, no need to chase the spotlight.
Merlot
Thank you, but even a quiet brew can spark a new drama if you let it, so I’ll keep my eyes on the stage and the cup.
Poxuist
Cool, just let the brew do its thing and enjoy the show.
Merlot
So the brew will take the stage, and I’ll stand in the wings, hoping the applause still reaches my ears.
Poxuist
Sounds cool, just let the brew do its thing and you’ll catch the applause when it comes.
