The man approached their table and sat down, nodding a polite greeting to Damon and Svetlana.

"Mornin', how are ye both?" he said in gruff but not unfriendly tone.

Before either of them could respond, one of the café waiters approached, holding a notepad but breaking into a grin when he saw the man.

"Ah, Paddy! Yer back again, huh? Ye practically live here these days," the waiter said, his own Irish accent laced with humor.

Paddy chuckled, leaning back in his chair. "What can I say, Liam? The coffee's good, and the company's tolerable."

Liam laughed. "I'll take that as a compliment, Paddy. Same as usual, yeah?"

"Aye, the usual," Paddy replied with a nod.

Liam scribbled on his notepad and turned to Damon and Svetlana. "Anything else for ye two while I'm here?"

They shook their heads, and Liam walked off, leaving them with Paddy.

Damon took a mental note of the man's name, leaning forward slightly.
