Seems appropriate that they would meet this way in modern times

If she's got the tounge of a tiger, I do NOT envy trace that cleaning, because he'd be about to get his skin peeled red raw...

A hour later, she was out in the streets.

Flora: "Sir, I am SOOO sorry! I'll get these things to the dry cleaners and have some new coffee brought up right away, I promise!"
Trace: "Thanks, I really appreciate it. Oh, and while you're at it, would you mind...?" *Leans in close.*
Flora: *Blushing.* "Um... Would I mind what, Mr. Legacy?"
Trace: *Blinks. Leans back.* "Would you mind telling me what exactly it is I do here?"
Flora: "Tell you...? You mean, you don't... know?"
Trace: "Not the foggiest. I don't even know how I got into this building. Though, judging by my outfit, I can guess I'm probably somebody pretty important... I am, right? Important?"
Flora: "I... yes? Yes, of course you are! You're... You're... MY intern!"
Trace: "I am?"
Flora: "Yes! I'm the boss of this company... and you are my new intern. In fact, today is your first day on the job."
Trace: "Wow, really? That explains why I'm so confused. Am I... doing a good job?"
Flora: "You are doing an EXCELLENT job, Intern Legacy. Which I will be sure to take note of in your next performance review. Now, how about you keep doing a great job and go get me some new coffee, while I go get set up in your... I mean... MY office."
Trace: "Yes, ma'am! Oh, um... Quick question before I go. Does our company have a policy against, uh... workplace relationships?"
Flora: *Blushes...then slowly grins.* "No, Mr. Legacy. It does not."

Given the corporate setting and the rocky relationship, I think Ally McBeal would be better: https://youtu.be/uEuCS33-ebM

Probably has a slit for the tail as we’ve seen on some clothing in TwoKinds.

Oh, if only businesses were this fun in the real world. I haven't seen work conversations like this in well over a decade.

<b>STORY-COMMENT™</b>
Flora: *Continues exclaiming “sorry” as she attempts to clean the frappuccino off of Trace*
Trace: You’re being kind of cute right now, you know that?
Flora: *Pauses her cleaning and apologies with a “So-rrk!?” before scrambling off of him* “What do you mean I’m being cute?”
Trace: “I think you’re being cute acting like it’s the end of the world over a spilt cup of coffee. It isn’t a big problem, accidents happen, plus, one of our businesses is 5 Minute Mana-Cleaning.”
Flora: “Oh, yeah… I kind of feel a bit childish now.”
Trace: “No need. Mike tripped into me, getting my lunch all over both of us the other day cause he couldn’t walk straight. Ms. Nora in development got her GenderPrank Crystals half right, so poor Mike’s right half was male and the other half was female.
You’ll fit right in here at Templar Incorporated.” *extends hand in an offer to help Flora up*
Flora: *hesitantly takes his hand*
Trace: “I’ll get that taken care of.” *waves his hand, causing the mess on the floor to vanish*
Flora: “I guess I better go then and get another delivery started.” *zips off, trying to avoid eye contact*
Trace: “Okay, I’ll see you… where’d she go? Hmm…?”
<i>Two Minutes Later</i>
Trace: “Back in the office at last. I guess I better get my suit off and cleaned before the meeting.” *takes suit, shirt, and vest off, before reaching to grab a non-existent Frappuccino off the table* “Huh? Strange, normally there’s one here every morning.”
*The door bursts open, with Flora sprinting in, replacement Frappuccino in hand*
Flora: “Gyaaah! I’m so sorry Mr. Trace, I didn’t mean to burst in on you like this…”
<i>Meanwhile…</i>
Kathrin, Raine, Maren, and Edmund Sirus dip their heads in the door*
Edmund: “I’m calling it, these two are gonna go home together tonight. She’s been sneaking those into his office for him for weeks now, and just got busted.”
Kathrin: “Oh quiet you!” *slaps Edmund*
Raine (HalfKind): “I think it’s kind of cute. On the one hand you’ve got him all:” *shifts forms*
Raine (Human): “It’s alright, you you didn’t mean to run into me earlier, and how did you know that Frappuccino is my favorite?” *shifts forms*
Raine (HalfKind): “While you have her being all:” *shifts forms*
Raine (Keidran): “I’ve had a crush on him since I was a teenager, but should I tell him that? I’ll settle on ‘I noticed you order it all the time’ instead.” *shifts forms*
Raine (HalfKind): “You know, that whole cliche, secret love thing.” *lightly bites her lip while looking towards Red, who’s about ready to destroy his workstation because of a low IQ customer*
Kathrin: “I agree. I’ve been hitting on Eric in Graphic design for ages and it seems like he doesn’t even notice.”
Maren: “I don’t know. I haven’t had very good luck with Keidran before. I had one boyfriend, Tanlen over in product testing. Don’t get me wrong, he was great in bed, but he left me to go after Adira over in Beverage Development as soon as he saw her.”
Sythe: “What’s up guys? What’s happening in there?” *starts going for the door*
Maren: (thoughts) “dammit, spoke too soon!”
Maren: (aloud) “Stop, get over here!” *grabs Sythe’s arm and pulls him close, in a way she can hear his heartbeat*
Maren: (thoughts) “What am I going to do?”
Sythe: “I kind of wondered when you’d want to get close to me, didn’t expect it today. Oow! Okay, Okay! Would a trip to the spa make it better? Geez.”
<i>Back in Trace’s Office…</i>
Trace: “I’m pretty sure you’re not telling me the whole story. Regardless, would you like to go out with me to Magpies Markets? Magpies’ grill over there makes the best steaks on Mekkan.”
Flora: “Isn’t that expensive? We can just go to the…”
Trace: *puts a finger on Flora’s lips before planting a kiss*
Flora: *effectively turns into liquid tiger because she’s getting kissed by her crush*
<i>Later That Day…</i>
*Lightning, Thunder, and Rain fill the sky*
Trace: *goes to ‘Mad Caff’ where Flora works*
Flora: “Thanks for the time off Maddie! Let me know what to get done tomorrow! Oh, Hi Trace.”
Maddie: *ducks out of the back* “Wait, The Trace Legacy, like CEO of Templar Inc!? You go girl!”
Trace: “It’s raining. Magpies will be closed. But… I do make a mean Filet Mignon, let’s go over to my place tonight.”
Flora: “Ok.” *takes Trace’s arm* “Aren’t you going to open an umbrella?”
Trace: “No need with the NoRain™ crystal, let’s go.”
<i>A Few Minutes Later…</i>
Edmund: “Pay Up everybody. That’s Trace’s building.”
Maren: “How’s this for paying up…” *smacks him over the head with a frying pan* “No one even bet on it.”
Sythe: “Okay…” *gives Edmund a couple silver pieces*
Maren: “Wha?”

Awesome job, Tom! These modern TK sketches are quickly becoming my favorite theme. Thanks for the votes, everybody!

Templar Order as corporation. "Templars inc." I like it. Seriously, “magical modernity” is a rather rare setting.
