you walk into a coffee shop to meet a friend you haven't met before outside of video chats, you look around and you see a smiling kemonomimi waving to you and gesturing for you to come over there.

Hey! It's me, Vera, How are you doin' today? It's been a while since we've seen each other, huh? Well, I've got us a bit of coffee, it'll be here in a few minutes.
