meanwhile at your local campus starbucks....[open log]

[eternallybored]

[ Ah, Starbucks. Open until about 1AM, it's a great place to work and be fueled on caffeine while working. Maybe you're here for a study group, maybe you just want to be out of the dorm while working, maybe there was a fire alarm and instead of standing out in the cold you decided to go here, maybe you want to annoy your friends while they try to study, or maybe you just want to try the latest holiday blend! Whatever you're here for, this is a nice place to look smart and productive while indulging in your favorite hot drink. ]

[ooc: this is an open log for all characters who would find themselves in Starbucks for one reason or another! feel free to make your own threads. ]

Ah, it's not a problem at all. Do you serve tea?

[... He doesn't seem very fazed.]

[eternallybored]

I do, and it shall be free for a hero such as yourself. Come, come-- allow me to show you which brews we have.

[disarmingsmile]

[... Well that's just unnecessary, but fine, he won't refuse it. He smiles with amiable interest.]

[eternallybored]

It is the least I can do. We have [ INSERT STARBUCKS BLENDS HERE. There's a lot. ]

[disarmingsmile]

... Hmm. [Wow, these all seem kind of... overly commercial?? But hey, he has no tea left, so...] I would like to try this one.

[eternallybored]

[ She goes and prepares his tea. ] Excellent choice; that happens to one of my favorites. It has a slightly earthy flavor, but it is balanced out by a subtle sweetness after the second sip.

[disarmingsmile]

[He's... skeptical. Hopefully it doesn't show on his face.] Is it your own brew?

[eternallybored]

If only... but no. I would only share that with a select few.

[disarmingsmile]

... I see. It must be truly special, then.

[eternallybored]

Would not you like to know?

[disarmingsmile]

I have no interest in meddling where I do not belong.

[eternallybored]

[ She hands him the drink. ] Mm... and so polite you are as well.

[disarmingsmile]

[He smiles, more sincerely and to himself this time, and takes his tea.

One sip, and...

Oh. It actually isn't bad.] Hmm.

[eternallybored]

You enjoy it, I see. Perhaps you would like a packet for home?

[disarmingsmile]

I suppose I might as well.

[eternallybored]

[ Doop doop going to wrap it up for you. ] Is there anything else you may wish for?

[ now's the time to ask for her number. :U ]

[disarmingsmile]

No, I believe that's all.

[... nope]

[eternallybored]

I see.

Have a nice day, then.
