When Samuel finally addressed them, Nate responded with a smile that took even his duplicate by surprise. "Yeah, it's always fun when a psychopath comes a-knockin" he said. He had mastered the affable boy next door attitude over the years. Those who knew him as Legion were often surprised about how he came across outside the costume. At this point even Nate wasn't entirely sure if it was an act or not but it worked for him so he'd keep it up. He wasn't sure what Capricorn's game was. Maybe he was just being paranoid and he didn't even know who Nate was. He'd play along anyway until the other man showed his hand.

Seemingly coming to the same conclusion, the duplicate played along. "It always brightens my day" he said, motioning his coffee slightly towards Samuel in a [i]cheers[/i] gesture but with a less enthusiastic smile. Both quickly turned their heads in a seemingly synchronized fashion as Raven approached with a tray carrying a bowl of soup and a coffee. She placed both in front of Samuel and with her usual friendly smile said "Enjoy". As she turned, Nate caught her eye and she gave him a tiny wave. He returned the gesture as she left to serve the other customers. Boy, she had sure shaken off her fear quickly. Nate found that a little odd for some reason.
