Cringing at his own voice crack and Fuyuko's totally-laughing-at-him giggles, Ji's face continues to be on fire, waiting for her to just finish getting dressed already. This is going to be a horrible couple of days, isn't it? Not because Fuyuko is rude in any way, but because they're both too polite and awkward to do anything but dance around each other infinitely. Ji definitely underestimated his own social skills--because the truth is, he's kind of atrociously bad at communicating with other beings, human or hybrid.

This is fine, Ji thinks, although he doesn't believe a word of it and is just trying to prolong the "pretend you don't care" period. This is fine. I'm fine. Everything is fine--

Aaaaand she slipped. Why is this situation still getting worse. Please somebody kill me now.

"Um, are you okay--" Ears easily picking up every move Fuyuko makes whether he likes it or not, Ji tracks her movement from the bathroom doorway, to the closet, to the bathroom again, where she closes the door firmly behind her. Then he deflates, splaying himself out on the bed again and wishing all of this never happened. Maybe he should just take a cold shower; he needs to cool down big time after... everything...

"I'm done now."

"O-oh!" Ji startles, rolling over to look Fuyuko in the face. Well, at least she's embarrassed too. This night has been a real comedy of errors, hasn't it? Except he can't really see the humor in it yet, not when Fuyuko is hiding behind her guitar like it might shield her from the reality of... this. Seeing this, Ji changes his mind a bit. Instead of bolting to the shower like Fuyuko did, he sits up, dangling his feet over the edge of the bed (Do they touch the floor? No?) with a pensive look on his face. He's thinking of something to say to her; he wants to make a good impression, after all. After a moment, he just decides to introduce himself the old-fashioned way.

"Um... anyway," he starts, clearing his throat beforehand. "I don't think I ever told you my name, or anything about me. And since this snowstorm doesn't show any signs of stopping..." The weather outside is frightening, Ji's mind supplies, but he refuses to accept that song as the template for their stay here. The fire inside is not delightful. "...we should probably get acquainted. I'm Ji Chan. I don't really have one job, I just drift..." Ji trails off, thinking about the places he's visited, the sorts of people he's met, and decides Fuyuko probably wouldn't like any of them. "So. Yeah. That's about it, how about you?"

hm I guess it makes sense for scientific reasons, so i'll change it. I usually draw them with both so maybe I should change that X3 anyway i'll amend my post a bit and keep it in mind.

also, I made a reference to it in my other post, but apparently having a character with both human and animal ears is considered weird. what do you think? should I just change it? personally I don't think it's as much of a deal as people make it out to be but if it bothers you...

SAME. but not too embarrassing. but like... the right amount of embarrassing. also ji will definitely bite anyone who tries to mess with fuyuko (once he's warmed up to her a little)

he would be mad 'cause he's a gentleman and if somebody has to wear the other's clothes, it should be fuyuko. also bc he thinks he's tough and would die of embarrassment

@Vox thank you! and I gotcha, Amelia may not have heard that but she is more just trying to keep things organized and isn't super wild on letting random people into her kitchen. but again, march may like the help :3

Café Crème, the Catmaid Café! ♥

ALSO I AM SO SORRY IF THERE ARE ANY TYPOS, USUALLY I PROOFREAD MORE BUT I JUST REALLY NEEDED TO GET THIS OUT BEFORE I DO MY MATH & SPANISH HOMEWORK

Café Crème, the Catmaid Café! ♥

UGH SORRY FOR THE WAIT!!! a few things:

- Minkyu is definitely okay with being called sir. he wants to be a cool boss.

- Amelia would like beks but right now she's just too tired to deal with her hyper self

- Amelia no likey mina. mina bad customer.

- tomorrow I won't be on until the evening, so hold tight for a lil bit if you have questions then!

- tbh, after today and sunday night I am basically gone until... Tuesday morning? Monday joyce and I will be on the road and Tuesday is the night of the Astro concert!!! I'll be seeing Minkyu on stage XP stay tuned for exclusive footage of me screaming when they play crazy sexy cool. or not, idk. I may be online Wednesday... and maybe not. it depends on how tired I am after the concert.

- after this it is no longer spring break so I expect my workload to get a little harder... so i'm anticipating less time online as well. or not because I procrastinate 24/7. but I will still try to give café crème a lot of love and time!

that's it. i'm thinking @joyce can decide what march wants to do about bekah, maybe she can cook after all!

This cafe is quickly becoming crowded--too crowded. But before Amelia, still reeling a little from Daehyun's last comment, can react to the current situation(s), Minkyu does, shaking his head at the waiter's question.

"I don't know her," Minkyu admits, trying to evaluate her from his safe place at the back counter. "She, um, just came in. And we're not even open..." But despite this fact, which has been voiced several times by both an accommodating Monty and a disgruntled March, the girl does not seem bothered, expect for a small moment. In fact, she looks almost like she's going to start blaming them for not opening soon enough, something Minkyu is hardly prepared to deal with. He can hardly deal with Mari calling him "sir" because it's a) really weird and b) really cute. How does he even respond to this? Is he really her boss?? (He could get used to this "sir" thing, though...)

Thankfully, Amelia is prepared for everything. The moment she exits the hallway and catches sight of the crowd of employees, customers, and in-betweens, she starts to make sense of the situation. Ah. So we have an early customer, somebody who wants to be hired, and MONTY!

Dashing up to the older man with a bright smile, disregarding the customer he is trying to serve, Amelia gives Monty a tight backhug before taking a deep breath and speaking a very rapid string of words.

"Monty! It's great to see you! You gotta tell me all about your adventures later, and how Victoria is doing!" But first! Before Amelia can catch up with him, she has to take care of this customer, who is quickly earning herself a page in Amelia's "rude customers" book with all her snappish comments regarding the state of the café, something Amelia does not appreciate in the slightest!

"Monty is right, the café is not yet open," Amelia says, trying her best to be sweet despite the generally rude vibe this girl is giving her. "Monty and I will try to serve you the best we can, but the kitchen isn't open yet and so it will take awhile." After this statement, Amelia cannot stop herself from adding tartly "If you wanted a nice breakfast, than maybe you should've tried a restaurant that actually had a open sign." She knows it's hardly the professional thing to do, but she can't help it; that girl is indirectly insulting her café and so it makes sense to give her a little sass. Hopefully Monty won't scold her for it later.

Walking to the back of the shop, Amelia taps Mari on the shoulder and smiles at her kindly. "Mari, your outfit is in the back, why don't you get dressed and watch me serve a customer? It will be good practice for you. And March, might as well get the kitchen running." Where was that girl she saw a moment ago...? Did she run into the kitchens without permission? What a mess...

Poking her head into the kitchens, Amelia clears her throat loudly to get the attention of the blond, small, very excited girl who is flying around the kitchen in a attempt to help.

"Hey, um, this area is for employees only," Amelia tells her, looking a little frazzled at the amount of things she has to set straight. "I appreciate that you're trying to help us, but it might be better if you don't get in March's way. I'm not available to interview you right now, but if March is okay with it, he might be able to do something... after we deal with this customer."
