Wherever suits you. I'd prefer you to choose, if you don't mind - I don't want you to think I'm attempting something underhanded or preparing something, you know?

[ for the meeting to transpire tonight with no pre-planning, having Makoto choose the venue - hopefully these are assurances that Abel has no malicious intention, nor is he orchestrating anything other than a means by which to talk.

the subject matter certainly will be heavy enough to necessitate some appropriately hard liquor, right? they both must know what it is Abel wants to discuss; it's as good a time to cash in a 'favor' owed if there ever was one, he figures. ]
