It was agreeable, having his arm around Aivia. She was soft and didn't seem to mind him too much. She posed him a question he didn't need to even think about as he spoke. "Tiger striped, that stuff's damn sweet and I can get it here cheap." He gave another chuckle, one bordering on a laugh as he walked with Aivia up to the counter. The back was lined with all sorts of freezers and the front with open and labeled tubs of ice cream. The selection seemed almost staggering for such a small storefront and even still there were menus with pictures of frozen treats and stacks of other assorted confections. This place was stocked to the brim. "Ey Shoppy!" A rather plain looking man of indeterminate age turned away from the back and came up to the counter. "Two scoops a' tiger stripe for me and whatever this little dove wants, on me." He reached for his wallet as he spoke.

Looking up at him, she still wasn't sure as to why she was letting him have his arm around her. Was it because she didn't care? Maybe, but maybe it was just because she wanted to see where it would go. Would he creep her out anytime soon? Or was he actually an okay guy? It wasn't like it would be best to ask him a question like that. As he answered her question, she smiled at his answer. She loved tiger ice cream, but it wasn't her favorite. To her, strawberry had always had a special place in her heart. After he ordered, she looked at the person working and told him what she wanted. "I'll just have one scoop of strawberry, please." She added a small smile at the end of it before looking towards the older man beside him. "Thank you."
As the man scooped the ice cream he returned Aivia's smile. Meng slapped a twenty dollar bill on the counter before taking the two cones and handing the smaller strawberry cone off to Aivia. "Here ya go, Aivia." He turned back to the man serving them ice cream and gave him a smile as he spoke. "Keep the change, man. Cheers." It was blissfully hot out, and the ice cream would definitely be enjoyed. As Meng licked his he turned to speak to Aivia again, his arm still around her shoulders as he turned to walk off with her once more. "Anything you wanna do, dove?" It seemed he already had a nickname for her too.
As he gave her the ice cream, she smiled at him as well as the server before turning around with the older man. As she licked the ice cream, the taste of strawberry made her smile. She loved the taste of it, as for some reason it reminded her of how sweet life could be sometimes. That it was best to enjoy the little things. As he asked her what she wanted to do, it made her think for a moment. Lightly licking the ice cream, Aivia thought of all the things that she could fill her time up with. "Well, you could. show me those magic tricks? Or we could just walk around." That was really all she could think of. "What about you? Do you have nay ideas?"
Meng looked down at Aivia as she spoke. She asked if there was anything he wanted to do as she licked her cone. That smile of his became more of a grin as he responded. "Oh, I can think of a few things we could do." Meng gave another laugh and patted Aivia's shoulder. "Ah seriously though, we could swing back to my place if you wanna see what I can do." He didn't let too many implications come through, taking another lick of his cone and walking to nowhere in particular, but still making sure he was leading Aivia along. She was a lovely little thing and Meng was enjoying his time with her, but he was starting to make up his mind on what he'd like to get down to.
Blinking a few times, it seemed that he agreed with her on the topic that it would be best to see is magic abilities, though she wasn't sure as to if that was all he wanted out of the experience. Nonetheless, she wouldn't know unless she went there, right? Nodding lightly, she licked her cone softly as she looked at him. "Okay, once I'm done this cone then you can show me your magic and stuff, okay?" She smiled brightly at him as she took another look. "It'll be fun."
