"Haha!" the man called Sunny chuckled lightly at Winnifred's words.  "Maybe it sounds fake to you, Miss, but Sunny Clearview really is the name my momma gave me, as I live and breathe!  I'm, uh, 'fraid I'm not great at pronouncing names like your surname, though, so I hope you don't mind if I use your first name, and I don't mind one whit if you use mine.  If you're big into movies, what would you say your favorite genre is?"

"Much obliged, Keith!" the former special operator said, beaming toward the barista as he accepted his mocha and took a sip, followed by sighing in satisfaction.  "Ahhh, now that's some good coffee!  Y'all must have some real skill in roasting the beans!  And good to know, about the magecraft stuff."

At Richard's offer, however, he chuckled again and shook his head.  "No offense, but that's not a bet I'd take, my friend.  Knowing me, I'd end up picking exactly the wrong one, for a given value of wrong, heh.  Besides, I wouldn't wanna change the flavor of a brew this fantastic!  What's your specialty, then, Sir?  Alternative medicine that actually works 'causea magecraft?"
