I don't mind paying, is my point. You have a business to run and people to see to in your home, right? I pay for clothes, these days, and the occasional small thing. Hawke...insists on paying for me because I want for very little and I think he wants to feel useful.
[ For little things, of course. Food when they order in, groceries if he's out with her, small things when she asks. But Ava doesn't eat much, steals some things, and never really asks for much besides his company. And she does have a good job, if morbid. She thinks Hawke would pay for more if she let him.
Ava's chasing her food and martini with water now, both to listen but also because that hunger is growing, not to the point of ravenous - and not specifically a hunger for blood, just for...food - and she thinks listening will keep her from being too fixated on it.
She listens, taking in the names. Has he mentioned them before? She feels like he's mentioned 'Leitner' before in passing, but never really indulged in who he was. ]

[ Bad. That's really bad. ]
Sorry, sorry. One thing at a time. Go ahead, I'm listening.
