Eris gave a hearty chuckle. "Pay no attention to my lovely friend. They like their music and I feel it adds a bit of unexpected character to the shop." She winked at the patrons. She hummed, "Damien. Damien…Damien."
She dragged a finger across several different styles of tea before switching over the coffee brews. She selected one of the darkest she had. After she ground the beans, she poured the powder and hot water into a french press to steep. "Should be just a few minutes." She said over her shoulder to the gentleman, Damien. She pulled down a large mug and plopped a large spoonful of Nutella into the bottom if it. She poured the deep black coffee over it and gently used a spoon to dissolve the Nutella.
"Voila!" Eris said proudly as she placed the almost overflowing mug in front of the rather attractive man.
Lex's music changed to the later part of her playlist, the anime themes. The beginning to Attack On Titan beginning to blare and startling Lex. "Ow! Damn it!" She yelled as she dropped a pan, the fall of the appliance causing a loud clang as it resounded through the kitchen.
(Attack On Titan YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS)
Eris sighed, turning away from Damien. "One second, yea? Let me know how you like it when I come back." She casually walked to the end of the counter and then picked up her pace once out of eyesight of the patrons. She popped her head into the kitchen, looking for her friend. "Is an ambulance needed?" She asked with a slight smile.
"No," Lex said sadly. "But I dropped my croissant." She muttered, making a vine reference wherever she could. "But no, an ambulance is not needed. I just dropped my damn tray, I forgot that song was on my playlist and it startled me." Lex assured her friend and began picking up the remains of the recently deceased croissant and whatever was left of her dignity.
(I HEARD P!ATD AND IK I'M LATE)
Eris threw back her head, a hearty chuckle escaping her mouth. "Well. As always, holler if there is any real danger. Half of my job running this place is making sure you don't burn it down." She stuck her tongue out at her friend before disappearing back to the front of the cafe, where a small line had formed. Ah, the morning rush. She rolled her shoulders, pressed 'Go' on all her machines and got to work.
"Okay nerd." Was all Lex said as they finished picking up the tray. "Now I have to make a new batch of dough, guess I can get started on the jam tarts now." They muttered to themselves. As Lex worked in the kitchen, their steps began to move at the same beat as the music.
Damien had watched the young woman expertly make his coffee with a look of awe on his face. She moved effortlessly and confidently around the counter. Not a second of doubt clouding her face. His fingers itched with the need to draw her, draw this place, but he wondered if he would ever be able to capture the life that seemed to pulse here. He frowned, glancing down at his hands. He hadn't had the urge to draw since… his sister…
"Voila!" She said placing a large honey colored mug in front of him. Before he had said thank you, she vanished into the back kitchen after a commotion sounded from it. What is your name, coffee lady?
He gingerly took a small sip of the drink she had made him. Assuming what he liked from just knowing his name. He was doubtful that such a talent existed, but he was willing to play a pretty girl's game-
He froze. Then stared down at the cup before him.
It was delicious.
The most perfect cup of coffee he had ever had.
(okay uhhhhh idk if this is still open
but if you still need a bad guy, I can use one of my evil characters. Unless you need me to RP as myself, in which case, I can't do that bc I have to much anxiety to actually pull off being evil lol)
(we're still open!!! Can one of your bad guys become a vicious evil real estate agent that wants to take my cafe and build a shopping center and only cares about money and manipulating people?)
(definitely! does it matter whether this person is male or female? because I've got Lucifer, who I can change to fir the RP, and Pandora, who's just straight up evil and finds pleasure in breaking people down and is extremely self centered)
(YESSSSSSSSSSS. I would prefer that it be a male. Only because we've already mentioned he was….well…a he. lol
Feel free to put up your character at any time. Just remember everyone is human. :D you can pop into the story whenever you are comfortable too. Welcome! )
(alrighty, thank you! I'm going to sleep now bc it's really late where I live, but I'd love to join tomorrow!)
(brilliant. does happy dance)

Eris tried to pay little attention to the gentleman, Damien, who was still sitting at the main counter looking at his mug like he had witnessed Jesus step out of it, but she was smart enough to admit to her self that he was incredibly attractive. When the rush had cooled a bit, she found herself leaning on the side of the counter next to him. She had brought a refill of the drink she had made him as well. He was focused on a large textbook that he had pulled out of his bag some time ago and hadn't noticed her walk up. Setting it down within his line of sight she asked, "So? Am I magic or what?"
