August Coffee Shop Chats Q's + Announcement!

I'm absolutely terrible at remembering to update CSC news over here, so the best place to keep up with the show is in our Discord, but hello! Question call for the August interviews — we'll be chatting with Cry MJ of @twigsandhearts + William Wellman of @hellofromthehallowoods.

You can send in questions here/on anon via our askbox or drop them in the coffee shop Discord channel. Ask away!

Re: Updates, CSC now has an editor! that isn't me lmao! Everyone say hi to Azazel, who doesn't have a Tumblr but does have a portfolio you can check out, who will be helping out on the show. I'm looking forward to working with him on the show, and hope y'all will enjoy hearing his work too!

Coffee Shop Chats!

Thank you @podcast-bookclub for inviting me to be a guest on Coffee Shop Chats. Coffee Shop Chats is an indie podcast that interviews other indie podcast creators. Once the episode is released, you can hear me talk about sound design, burn out, my process for creating the horror audio drama @liarsandleechespod, and how characters from “Liars & Leeches” would play Minecraft.

All questions from my episode were submitted by members of the @podcast-bookclub discord server. If you’re looking to participate in a book club for podcasts, you should check them out and join the discord!

"- Good job 'Fei, 'Ro's in another space. I totally lost my boyfriend. - What about you? Not reading the book I gave you? - Me? Naaah, I'm a streetrat remember? Gotta maintain the reputation."

I made this for the @gundamzine. I just want them to be fine now.

How about Coffee Shop AU and Accidentally Married with Dottore (with anyone; reader, oc, etc)? I can't resist a good coffee shop au!

You scribbled the name of your patron on the cup and began their order, knowing the exact ratio of espresso and milk foam and pumps of flavoring.

For the last few days, the diamond and aquamarine ring and its band felt more natural than it originally did. They were slim things, unobtrusive, and thus couldn't get caught on anything or accidentally smashed. So simple and yet both spoke volumes about the thought that went into them, considering the circumstances.

You owned this place yourself, a little hole in the wall with enough seating for ten and a small desserts display. Regulars were your bread and butter in the cold Sneznhayan town, tucked below the Palace, but over the years, you couldn't help but notice that visiting dignitaries seemed to end up here specifically. An honor for any business, but a strange one.

One followed up by the world's weirdest encounter and the only time you ever saw the Tsaritsa up close.

"Can you take the next customer?" you asked your coworker as you steamed milk.

Or tried to. The stupid machine was on the fritz again. You muttered to yourself as you tried the usual fix of hitting it, which did the trick. Over the hiss of the bubbling milk, you caught a familiar timber at the register, his wording the same every time.

As soon as you passed off the latte, you plucked the cup from your coworker before they could shakily write on it, and fixed the cup exactly as apparently only you knew how to. On a whim, you grabbed the two remaining pieces of baklava from the display, tucked them into a bag, and held out both to the man waiting.

He rarely smiled when he visited, a facial expression most probably found terrifying considering who he was. A transplant from another nation, you hadn't a clue, and you treated him as any other customer. Your coworker busied themselves cleaning, clearly trying to listen.

You pointed to the bag. "New recipe, by the way; let me know how the flavor is."

"More honey or different nuts?"

"I managed to get a hold of Ajilenakh Nuts before they sold out this morning. You mentioned the variation and I wanted to try it."

He nodded and you watched the tops of his ears turn pink. As controlled as he was over his expressions, you were beginning to pick up on small cues that gave him away. That was your favorite so far.

He took your hand and kissed the spot above your rings, breath tickling your skin.

"I have time later; I'll come look at that," the customer said. "Repair services are expensive and they'll tell you a new model is needed. Should be an easy fix."
