[When the clock hits five and Gepard isn't there, Sampo doesn't think much of it. Who ever arrives exactly on time, right? Especially with bus schedules how they are, showing up five minutes late is basically the same as being on time. Besides, he'd said five-ish, not exactly at five. Five after, that's nothing to worry about. Ten after, maybe Gepard's just running a bit late. Fifteen and no text, and he's starting to wonder if he's really been stood up.]
[He'd decided to give Gepard until twenty after-- maybe half-past if he's really feeling a little pathetic-- before calling it. Any later than that and it's just sad, you're just that guy who won't admit that he'd been stood up. Thankfully, Sampo is spared this sad fate when Gepard does, in fact, show up, seventeen minutes late.]
Hey, there you are! [Gepard looks a little harried, like he'd been rushing to get here. Slightly out of breath, a little color on his cheeks, it's not a bad look for him.] Want to get some coffee or something real quick? I already got tickets.
[Another reason why he really hoped Gepard wouldn't stand him up. He was able to get the tickets for the conservatory half off through various... means, some of which he's fairly certain Gepard wouldn't approve of. So what Gepard doesn't know about won't make him side-eye his new acquaintance-slash-friend! Easiest way to do it.]
