❝Oh, it's you.❞
"You hung up on me yesterday feisty pants, so I took it upon myself to call again."
❝Do not call me that. Now, would you like your bland coffee again, pervert?❞
"If I tell you my name, will you please not call me that? To answer your question, no I want to try your special ice cream knock off frap."

"I'm kidding, I meant it. It sounds nice. Anyway, what do you think about this perverts name?"
❝Quiet relived you admitted to being a pervert. It is interesting why would your parents name you after a letter in the alphabet?❞
"It's short for Quentin."

"Really? A compliment from you? Wow, that means so-"
❝It's exactly like your taste in coffee. Bland.❞
"Little. That means so little to me."
