That's likely because you'll be making it, not because of the temperature.

[ He takes a big, audible sigh. It's hard to suppress the murderous urge right now. ]

Yes. It's a latte. Unless you'd like to take on the impossible feat of a 160 degree frappuccino.

Could have been a mocha for all I know.

[ He starts pressing buttons and hums in exaggerated fake-happiness under his breath as he works, frowning after a moment as he focuses more on concentrating on what he's doing. It may be a disgusting abomination of an order but he's going to make it, turning around to grab the right cloths, syrup pumps and ridiculous splenda and oh how he hates his job right now. ]

Here we go. One grande extra hot soy in a venti cup with extra foam, split shot with a half squirt of sugar-free vanilla, a half squirt of sugar-free cinnamon, a half packet of splenda sweetener and filled up with extra whipped cream. Caramel and chocolate sauce drizzled on top. Enjoy.

[ He beams his best 'go fuck yourself please' smile and carefully fastens on the lid before gently sliding it across the counter. ]

[ For this, Arthur has all the patience in the world. He only casts his attention away from Emery to dig out his phone and text the appropriate parties. Give them a heads up about being 20 minutes late and whatnot.

He had to admit, he admired the boy's unwillingness to give up. Anyone in their right mind would have just taken a strike.

But that doesn't mean he's going to cut Emery any slack. That would be far too easy. He returns the smile right back once the ridiculous order's finished. ]

Thank you.

[ Right before Emery's eyes, he takes both drinks, gives him a nod in his direction, and promptly tosses both full cups into the nearest wastebasket. ]

Well. Have a good day then, Emery.

[bravelyspoken]

[ Admittedly, he wouldn't have drunk that either.

It would have been disgusting on so many levels.

... Still.

Emery grits his teeth and smiles, offers Arthur a little wave. ]

You too, come back soon!

[ More like never. ]
