State your case and don't bore me--or there may be consequences.
email; from Gil. just Gil.
he reads the e-mail over and hey, she like, checked it for grammar and spelling and didn't have her iPhone accidentally sign it as Queefmaster 5000, so she's at least moved into round 2 of considerations. he'll send an e-mail back maybe six hours or so later. ]
Thank you for your interest in the position, Ms. Takamaki. I would like to meet you for a face to face interview at this stage of proceedings; would you prefer to meet in a public space or my hotel accommodation? I'm still unfamiliar with the area so I am uncertain as to which public venues are available, if you have any suggestions.
[ is this secretly a test to see if she can come up with researchable information? maybe. at least he's not insisting on the hotel and triggering the 'this is secretly a weirdo looking for a sugar baby' alarms, right? ]

I would be more comfortable if we met in a public space first. Depending on time of day, there's a good cafe here (insert address) that is normally just studying students, or a wine bar here (insert address), that's normally quiet on weekday afternoons.

there's also a little flicker in Gil's appreciation level that it wasn't an 18 year old approaching his job posting, if she can get into a wine bar without a problem. ... what was the drinking age in this country again? ]
From what I remember of scheduling classes for my own college education, I believe the wine bar would serve us best for a brief interview. I am available at any point during this week, for whatever time serves your own schedule best.

How about Wednesday at 5? Does that work with your office hours?
email text > action
It does. I will tell you I don't keep a strict schedule--my office hours are entirely subjective and decided by whatever the day's needs are. I do not expect you to keep the same schedule as me, but that's certainly something we can discuss. I will see you at Wednesday at 5.
[ aka there's no force on this earth that can make Gil work if he doesn't wanna, neither god nor the heavens nor an androgynous blue-haired homunculus with really strong legs.
come 5pm on said Wednesday, Gil will arrive where they meant to meet. coming early is for dorks and people with stuff to lose, he breezes in at 5. ]

When Wednesday comes, she'll be there early, of course. She's nervous. She's dressed sharp, but not overdone, with her hair in a bun instead of the normal pigtails. She was told it looks more professional.
She's sitting at a table reading one of her textbooks as she waits.
When she sees Gil arrive, she'll stand and offer her hand for a handshake when he approaches.]
Good afternoon, Mr. Gil.

[ for the moment, he's in a long black leather coat and looks somewhat professional and put together, though there are brief glimpses peeking under the leather that imply something a lot brighter is happening underneath.
the dillweed's also only wearing one glove. he settles himself at her table after a firm handshake, giving a small gesture to her book. ]
Is that for a class you're enjoying or one that you'll pass come hell or high water?
