Okay, hopefully I'm doing this right. Just learning how talking to this thing works. Which sounds really stupid, I'm sure, but that's how it is.
[A pause. She feels awkward. And it's annoying to know she sounds so awkward.]
This is Gretel.
I was thinking about your offer. I don't want to push this deadline they gave us. Not a fan of magic, but I also don't want to test it. So. If you're still... okay with it... I'd like to take you up on it. Just to get it out of the way.
[After an hour or so, she gets a message in return.]
Hello, Ms. Gretel. Your message was fine, don't worry.
I would be glad to help you. How would you like to do this? I can tell you I'm in the Earth District, but I have no qualms meeting you somewhere if you prefer.
((OOC: Log time yay? 8D? Also, do you wanna do the sort of Service play thing for Gretel? Because I'm very interested in playing that out if you are cool with it.)
I can come to the Earth District. [There's no middle ground here, no neutral area where they could meet for this.]
I guess we'll talk details in person. [It feels beyond strange to discuss this over these things.] Where should we meet?
(ooc: Definitely log time! And I'd be cool with the Service play, but I can tell you now Gretel will need some coaching! Simply because she is new to it, is awkward with it, and... well. She's great at calling the shots... when she's hunting. This? She's going to fail at for a little while!)
As you like. There's a small cafe near my apartment. [ta-da, Gretel will receive a GPS node on her device pointing out where] I'll go out and have a drink. Feel free to come by. If you haven't by nightfall, then I'll assume you've made other arrangements. No hard feelings.
[Professionalism: John has it.]
(ooc: Cool cool. I can definitely work with that. If you want to set up a log, then go ahead. If Not, I will have time to do so tonight. 8D )

[Calm, in control. Like she wasn't nervous as hell about this.]
