by the way if youre ever scared to go to a cafe and you dont know what the drinks are
a hot latte is espresso shots, steamed milk, foam top
an iced latte is shots, cold milk and ice. no foam
a cappuccino is shots, steamed milk, a lotta foam
cappuccinos usually arent iced, but they could make it iced by using cold foam in some places (not most)
americano hot is shots and hot water
americano iced is shots, ice and cold water
a mocha is just a latte with mocha syrup and usually whip cream
and a white mocha is the same, just with white mocha
for all the espresso drinks, you can usually ask them to add syrups to make it sweeter - or they will even have pre built drinks on their menu, like a vanilla latte. some places are less flexible than others - but it never hurts to ask!
if you want regular coffee with cold milk just say that
but if you want the milk steamed, its a cafe au lait
if you want something frozen and blended, most places have some version of this - they could be frappes, frozen ______, or ive even seen “chillers” - these are great if you want something like the texture of a milkshake :-)
chai and matcha are built similar to an espresso latte, its the tea with milk (can usually be done hot or iced). chai is spicy and sometimes sweet and matcha is a more refreshing herbal flavor
ummm this is so long sorryyy. i just know people can get anxious to try new things so. i can explain more drinks if anyone wants to know ^_^

Tumblr media
Sunday
It’s early-Sunday morning by the time you arrive at JFK. You, Sydney, Marcus, and Carmy wait in the hellishly long Starbucks line because it’s the only fuckin’ thing available at the airport this morning. 
Fuckin’ monopolies, you think to yourself, begrudgingly. 
After ordering all at once, the four of you wait for your coffees. Your order isn’t the most unique – just a cafe au lait with oat milk, no sugar. The hard at work barista quickly makes their way through all four coffee orders, glad that they’re simple. As the order’s up, you watch the barista add the four cups – three hot, one iced – to the pick up station. 
“Christ, I need this,” Sydney grumbles, her head throbbing from a few too many drinks the night before. 
She’s exhausted from the weekend and knows she stayed out a little too late last night. This morning’s wake up call for the airport was less than pleasant, and she’s just glad that she can sleep on the plane. 
“Someone’s hungover,” you chide playfully. 
“Shut up,” she shoots back, earning a laugh from you. 
You look down at your coffee cup, immediately noticing that the name on the coffee cup is not yours. 
“Oh shit. I think I took the wrong coffee by accident,” you say, your face twisting a confused look. 
Carmy’s eager to rush to your side, taking the coffee from you, “Huh. Looks like you got switched up with… some guy named Sam?” 
He takes your cup of coffee, walking back over to the pick up station. There’s a man picking up a coffee cup with your name written on it in bold letters. Carmy chuckles realizing that you have almost the exact same order as this ‘Sam’ guy. 
“Excuse me. I think my fiance accidentally took your coffee. Are you Sam?” Carmy asks, holding out the coffee cup to the stranger. 
“Oh! I wondered why my extra double shot of espresso was missing from the-,” he starts, checking the label. “Yeah, this is it. Thanks for lookin’ out!”
Carmy gives the man a half smile, before jumping at the sound of Sydney’s voice, pitched louder and higher than normal. 
“Carmen Berzatto, something you want to share with the class? Did you just say FIANCE!?” Sydney practically shrieks, garnering the attention of the long Starbucks line adjacent to where you stand. 
“No fucking way!” Marcus exclaims, his voice booming as he grabs your left hand. “You guys are engaged?! Since when!!”
The four of you look around, noticing that your little outburst has earned an assortment of reactions from the various people in line. You’re blushing and Carmy’s face has turned a shade of pink that seems to spread all the way underneath the neckline of his white t-shirt. Suddenly, he feels overwhelmingly shy, as he focuses on not dropping either of your coffee cups. 
“I’m so sorry. We did not mean to disturb or alarm-. You know… what you guys got goin’ on this morning,” Sydney apologizes, her eyes scanning the coffee line. 
“But our best friends literally just got engaged!”
A few people in line are clapping, a few others turn to each other, whispering excitedly, while a few ‘congratulations’ are uttered in the direction of you and Carmy. 
“Fiance, huh?” you ask, under your breath. 
“Tryin’ it out,” he answers with a shrug. 
You can tell it brings him more satisfaction than he’ll ever admit – getting to call you his fiance – and Carmy can’t wait to be out of the spotlight as he quickly ushers you, Syd, and Marcus away from the airport Starbucks. As you head towards your gate, Syd and Marcus continue the berating for not telling them sooner. 
“So you guys were just gonna get engaged all privately and shit and not tell us?” Marcus teases. “Shit, man. That’s fucked up.”
“It just happened last night,” you defend yourself, before shooting Carmy a look. “And I didn’t know we were telling anyone yet.”
The blush that runs across his cheeks turns a shade darker, and you can tell that he’s completely and utterly embarrassed by all of this attention. 
“But where’s the ring? I thought you-?!” Sydney exclaims, earning a strong glare from Carmy that says ‘stop talking right now.’
“This is why we didn’t say anything,” he grumbles, cutting her off so that she can’t say anymore. As Sydney realizes she’s almost spoiled the surprise, she’s quick to course correct by laughing it off. 
“Ha! Yes, right, that’s uh-. Who needs a ring anyways?” she pivots, earning a laugh from you in response to her rather strange behavior. 
“The ring’s… a secondhand thought at this point,” you placate them, making sure your casual tone communicates your lack of expectation.  
Even though you feel like both Carmy and Sydney are being weird right now, you move right past it. You’ve never been one to need something physical to understand how much Carmy loves you. With your coffee in one hand, and Carmy’s hand in the other, you give him a reassuring squeeze. 
Ring or no ring, you were going to marry the love of your life.
*
By the time you make it home, you’re exhausted and so grateful that you had the foresight to take tomorrow off. You knew you’d wanted an extra day to prepare for the week ahead and a day to spend with Carmy on his day off. 
Carmy, your fiance. 
You get butterflies just thinking about it. 
After a long weekend of cooking, exploring – not to mention casually getting engaged – you’re ready to do fuckall for a day and a half before your work week starts. You figure out what you can push to tomorrow: grocery shopping, a few chores here and there. You find yourself curled up on the couch with Aioli, who seems like she’s genuinely missed you as she cuddles up to you. She bumps her soft head against your shoulder, before curling up into the sweetest little croissant next to you on the couch. 
You flip through your phone, scrolling through some social media app as you hear a chaotic rustling sound coming from your bedroom. Seconds later, Carmy comes bursting back into the living room, phone in hand. He looks worried, prompting you to ask:
“Everything alright?”
“Ffffffffuck!” he exclaims, frustratedly. “Just got a text from Fak. Emergency at the restaurant, babe.” 
“Shit,” you swear.
“I gotta take care of this,” he admits with a huff. 
“Right now?” you ask, unable to hide your disappointment that after fifteen minutes of being home, he’s already rushing back to work.
He shoots you a remorseful look before saying, “Yeah.”
“Can’t leave for the fuckin’ weekend without something going to shit,” he mutters under his breath. 
He knows he’s laying it on thick. 
“Okay,” you resign yourself. 
“Will you be home for dinner?”
“Think so,” he says, almost as a consolation. “I’ll shoot you a text when I work this shit out.” 
You nod in understanding. 
“I don’t have the energy to go to the store today. Thought I’d pick something up from the Thai place across the street we like,” you suggest.
“Sure,” he nods in agreement, urgently. 
You know he’s in a hurry, noticing as his eyes flicker from you to the door, then back to his phone. 
“Okay, last thing: I uh-, before you go,” you begin. 
You watch as Carmy’s face softens. He knows how much you were looking forward to spending the afternoon with him. He only feels a little bad about the fact that he’s totally pulling one over on you. 
“I’m gonna meet up with Natalie for a walk later. Are you… cool if I tell her?” you ask, checking in.
He waits a beat before nodding, “Uh. Yeah. She’ll probably kill me if we don’t.” 
“Right, and, our friends kind of told an entire Starbucks line at an airport so…” you reply playfully. 
He gives you a half smile and you can see he’s preoccupied with whatever emergency is happening at the restaurant. 
“Okay, that’s all I have. Love you, Bear,” you say, letting him know he can go. 
“Love you,” he replies, before leaving the softest goodbye kiss on your lips. 
And he’s off, hurrying out of your apartment like a bat out of hell. 
Only there’s no emergency at the restaurant. 
He just needed an excuse to get out of the house and get the ring. Your ring. He’s been blowing Richie’s phone up all day, every chance he had. Every moment he thought you weren’t looking, he’d send a string of texts to Richie: asking him where he’d be, if he could grab it at home, bring it to the restaurant. 
Carmy walks briskly towards The Bear. He wonders if his quick pace is a symptom of his nerves. Last night’s conversation had been so casual, and it’s not like you were going to change your mind. But there was something about doing it again – doing this properly – that made him feel antsy. 
When he arrives at The Bear, he enters through the back of the restaurant, marching right into the kitchen. He knows that the staff on shift should be prepping for dinner service, ready to reopen for dinner within the hour. 
“What’s goin’ on, Carmy? Thought you wouldn’t be in till Tuesday,” Angel says as soon as he sees Carmy. 
“No, yeah, we just got back,” Carmy says back, sending Angel a half smile as a greeting. “Just uh, pickin’ up something from Richie.” 
“He left for a few earlier, but… think he’s back? Think he’s out there,” Angel nods towards the front of house, before returning to what he was doing previously.
Carmy’s eyes scan the back of house before calling out, “Yo, cousin!”
Moments later, the taller, pure pain-in-the-ass of a man’s bursting through the double doors that lead to the dining area. 
“There he is! The man that’s been blowin’ up my phone all day!” Richie shouts back, making his way into the kitchen. “Thought I’d have to get a restraining order, ya fuckin’ lizard.”
“Do you have it or what?” Carmy snaps, getting right to the point. 
“Hello to you too, Carmen,” Richie replies. 
Carmy rolls his eyes as Richie glares at him. 
Richie’s face falls with a sigh. He’s not going to give his cousin a hard time – not today. 
“Yeah, ‘course I do,” Richie says, pulling the small box he’s been holding onto all weekend out of his pocket. 
“Jeff! How was New York, baby?” Tina asks, as she approaches the both of them. Her eyes widen as soon as she sees what Richie’s holding. 
“Oh shit.”
“Right?” Richie exclaims, with a rousing laugh. “Carmen’s finally lockin’ it down, T! Just like ya told him.” 
“Watcha guys lookin’ at? Hey! Welcome back, Bear!” Fak greets, interrupting the conversation by joining in. 
“This son of a bitch is about to be the luckiest man alive. Can’t believe the broad hasn’t left your ass yet,” Richie says, encouraging Carmen in the only way he knows how to. 
“Ooh let me see,” Fak says, reaching out to grab the ring box. 
Fak opens the box, seeing the shiny engagement ring, his eyes widening as soon as he realizes what’s going on. 
“Wow, Bear. You think she’ll say yes?” Fak asks, excitedly, as he hands the box back to Carmy. 
Tina glares at him while Richie shouts something along the lines of, “You really wanna put that in his fuckin’ head, you fuckin’ stroke?”
“First of all, I’m not a fuckin’ stroke. And second of all-!” Fak shrugs. 
“Uh, first of all. You are. And second of all, of course she’s gonna say yes you fuckin’ waste of space,” Richie interjects, protectively shutting any notion that you’d say ‘no’ down. 
“Very nice, Jeff,” Tina compliments, admiring the ring. She exchanges glances with Carmy. “Very nice. I think she’s really gonna like that.”
Carmy smiles at the sound of Tina’s approval. As much as he’d like to take credit for picking out a beautiful engagement ring all by himself, he’d asked Sugar to go with him a few weeks ago. She’d been surprised he asked in the first place, but he’d wanted to get it right, and knew he’d want a second opinion. It wasn’t till Sydney caught wind of his plans that she insisted she join in, adding a third opinion to the mix. 
Surprisingly, it hadn’t been a ‘too many cooks in the kitchen’ scenario – both his sister and his work-wife acting as his biggest cheerleaders. 
“Alright you fuckin’ replicants. Let’s get back to work,” Richie orders, shooing Tina and, especially Fak, away. 
He makes sure no one else is listening before he leans in, patting Carmy on the back a few times while he says:
“You got yourself a good thing. Proud of you..”
“Thank you, cuz,” Carmy replies, with a shake of his head. “And thanks. For holding onto this for me. 
Richie starts to back away, pointing a finger at Carmy, “Don’t fuck it up.”
Carmy shakes his head. 
He’s really going to try not to. 
While Carmy makes a quick trip to the grocery store before heading home to set up his surprise for you, you’re across town with Natalie. Not a bad alternative, you think to yourself. You’ve picked up a coffee for you, and a matcha latte for her, as the two of you wander alongside the River Walk. 
“I’m dying for a cup of coffee,” she whines, dissatisfied with the grassy green liquid in her cup. “This whole tea thing really isn't doing it for me and I can’t decide if I like or hate matcha so I just keep drinking them to see.”
“Yeah I-, I do not envy you. While I do really enjoy matcha, no amount of matcha lattes will ever hit like coffee,” you commiserate with your soon-to-be sister in law. “How’ve you been feeling?”
“Like garbage,” she exhales an exasperated sigh, woefully. “Don’t get me wrong. Pete and I have been trying to get pregnant for a while now, and I’m so happy…!”
“But I’m also exhausted and my boobs feel huge,” Sugar continues, and you can hear how tired she is in her voice. “The whole first trimester, I don’t think I slept through the night and I spent every single morning just emptying any contents of my stomach into the toilet. My clothes are starting to fit differently which is… well, it is what it is… and on top of it all, I’m seriously craving the strangest things.”
You chuckle, “Sounds like a nightmare.”
“Yeah it’s… it’s super weird. But enough about me and my swollen boobs…” she agrees. “How was New York? I saw some of the pictures on your instagram… it looks like you guys had a great time!” 
It’s the perfect segway for you to tell her the news, so you take a sip of your coffee, suddenly feeling a little nervous and also excited to tell her. 
“Yeah, so uh, that’s actually what I wanted to talk to you about,” you start, some of the nerves trickling into the way your voice sounds.
“Oh god. What’d he do?” Sugar asks back, instantly. 
You laugh, quick to reassure her, “No, it’s not like that! New York was… really great.”
You take a beat before continuing. 
“It was kinda weird too. I think… just because we have so many memories there, yknow?” you begin, a small hesitancy in your voice that Natalie instantly detects. She listens as you both continue your walk, coffee cups in hand. “And I think it made us both think… about what we want… from our relationship…”
“Okay…” she trails off, her ears practically perking up as soon as she knows where this conversation could be going. 
You stop your walk, turning to face her. 
“And we talked… and… decided that….”
“Carmy and I… are getting married,” you say, unsure of how you’re so cool and level-headed as you say it. 
“Shut up!” she exclaims, grabbing for your left hand almost instantly. 
“We’re not-, we don’t have a ring yet,” you’re quick to explain, as she shoots you a look. Her eyes flicker from your ring finger, then back to your face. She knows he has the ring, and the fact that you’re not wearing it right now means he didn’t bring it to New York with him. 
She’ll let him off the hook. Just this once. 
“That soft shitty bitch,” she sighs, with an eye roll. “I could kill him for not doing it for real but… I know it’s your style.”
“Right.”
“Oh my god! You and Carmy are getting married!!” she squeals. This may be the best news she’s gotten since she and Pete found out they were pregnant. “I mean. Took him long enough.” 
You roll your eyes playfully, “Sounds like we’re finally gonna be sisters-in-law.” 
“Finally!” she repeats with a laugh. 
You spend a little more time with Nat at the River Walk, before the both of you stop to get a snack. Sugar’s totally honest with how strange her cravings have been as you stop at a convenience store for pickle chips, a pop, and a pack of twizzlers. You decide to try her very strange combination of snacks, just to hold you over before dinner. 
As you make your way home, you notice that the days are getting longer. The sun is still high in the sky and it reminds you that summer is almost here. It’s wild to think about. Your trip to New York hadn’t just gotten into Carmy’s head. It’s had you in yours too. It’s strange to think that, this time three years ago, Carmy was but a painful memory: your best friend who’d just left town, your best friend who couldn’t bother to call you back, your best friend who had broken your heart because maybe, just maybe, you were in love with him. 
And now, thanks to a one week trip to Chicago that set it all in motion, you’re marrying him. 
You thank your lucky stars that he managed to work up the nerve to call you that Fall – that he managed to swallow his pride and ask you to come help out with this new restaurant he was working on. 
You take the long way home, enjoying your own company too much. You figure you’ll take a shower when you get home, change into your comfiest clothes, then head across the street to order dinner before Carmy gets home. You hadn’t heard from yet, which only told you that the emergency at the restaurant was most likely a big one. You expect for him to be gone most of the night, crawling into bed while you’re half asleep after scarfing down reheated leftovers. You weigh your options –  how you’d like to spend the night by yourself:
Trash TV. Snuggling up with Aioli. Maybe even doing a load of laundry. 
As you turn your key in the door, you hear a clamoring of pots and pans. 
But Carmy hadn’t texted you. 
He wasn’t home already, was he?
You push the door open, pulling your keys out of the door, before placing them into the dish that sits on the end table right by the front door. 
“Carm?” you question, as you hear movement in the apartment. 
You can smell the scent of boiling water, cured pork, and soon enough, you spot one of your clear, glass bowls filled with a tomato passata. The sight stops you in your tracks. He’s got his french-laundry-blue apron on, because, of course, he’d wanted some for the house too. You watch as he moves around the kitchen, his attention focused on chopping up half of a red onion. Carmy must’ve lit every single candle that he could find in the apartment and scattered them around your living space before you’d gotten here. 
Aioli seems transfixed by the revolutions of the vinyl Carmy’s put on as the record, perched on the windowsill next to your record player. The turntable slows to a halt, signaling that it’s time to flip it over.
You’re speechless.
“Carmy, what’s going on?” you ask, looking around the room. 
“Babe, can you flip the record over?” he asks, motioning towards the windowsill. 
“Uh…” you manage to get out, setting your bag down by the entryway. You make your way over to alcove, moving the needle back to its place, before flipping over the record. As you glide the needle back onto Side B, the sounds of Louis Armstrong boom throughout your living room. 
“I thought-, what happened at the restaurant?” you stammer through, watching him in your open kitchen. “I hadn’t heard from you I just thought-.” 
But you don’t have the words, feeling caught off guard, because whatever’s happening in your apartment right now feels big. 
Carmy reaches a stopping point, setting his knife down, and making his way to the sink to wash his hands. He’s not going to propose to you (again) while his hands smell like onions. Your eyes are glued to him as he removes his apron, before setting it down on the counter. 
“Surprise?” he says, almost apologetically. 
“Oh,” you say back, as if you’ve forgotten the entire English language. 
You’re not sure why tonight feels big, but it does. Maybe it’s because you got engaged last night. 
Yeah, maybe it’s that. 
But Carmy’s not one to make a big romantic gesture, so you’re not sure what’s going on. 
“Good ‘oh?’” he asks, his eyes wide as he stares at you. 
“Uh. Yeah,” you say, your words finally coming back to you. “I thought you weren’t going to be home till late. I-, I hadn’t heard from you so I guess I wasn’t expecting you to be home.”
He smiles sheepishly. 
“There wasn’t actually an emergency at the restaurant,” he states, shifting uncomfortably on his feet. 
He’s not sure why he’s nervous. He’d asked you last night and you’d said yes. 
But nonetheless, this feels different. 
“Oh,” you repeat. 
At this point, you’re not sure you’re supposed to be saying anything, so you wait. You examine the face of your very nervous boyfriend – fiance – as he looks down at the floor, his hands fumbling for something in his pocket. 
“You’re my best friend and the love of my life,” he starts, and he hopes you can’t hear that his voice is shaking. “And I-, well, I wanna do this for real.”
Carmy pulls a small box out of his pocket. 
“Woah,” you say, your eyes widening as soon as you see it. . 
“I know you already said yes, but… I didn’t have this with me. So,” he continues, his face red as he drops to one knee. 
“Holy shit, Carmy.”
You swallow because the way that he looks at you takes your breath away. 
“Marry me?” 
You can’t help it as tears spring to your eyes. He opens the ring box, and you gasp, seeing the most ‘you’ ring possible. This feels so different than his ask last night, and both proposals feel equally true to both your relationship. You reach for him, pulling him back up to you as you say:
“Yes, Carmen. And yes, again. Let’s fucking get married.”
And Carmy’s leaping to his feet, pulling you into the warmest, passionate embrace. You pull away, just far enough to grab his head and kiss him, pressing your lips to his even through your smiles and giggles. 
“Thank God,” he sighs, causing you to laugh as you pull away from him.
“Did you think I’d say no after I said ‘yes’ last night?” you ask with a laugh. 
He shakes his head, looking at the floor, “It just feels more real with the ring, you know? Speaking of.” 
And finally, he pulls the ring out of the box he holds in his hands. With your hand in his, he slides the delicate engagement ring on your ring finger, and you shake your head in total disbelief. 
“Carmy this is beautiful. Did you pick this out yourself?” you ask, holding out your hand to admire the ring.
“I… had some help. Syd and Sugar actually…,” 
You nod in response. Of course Sydney and Natalie had helped. And it explains the weird comments all day long about him not having a ring. 
“You did good, babe. So good,” you compliment, admiring the ring that sits so perfectly on your ring finger. 
“Yeah?” he asks. 
“Oh yeah,” you reassure him, grinning ear to ear. 
And finally, he leans in and kisses you, crashing his lips against yours. It’s then that you realize how nervous he is, his face hot with excitement. His lips move against yours, leaving a few long, passionate kisses before he pulls away slowly. His forehead is pressed against yours as he whispers:
“I can’t wait to spend the rest of my life with you.”
Taking a more playful approach you giggle:
“And I can’t wait to be Mrs. Carmen Berzatto.”
“Shut up,” he smirks.
“You love it,” you say back. 
“I do,” he declares. “I love you.”
Carmy sits you down, and you watch as he makes you an amatriciana. You know that food is the way he shows you love – the way he knows how to communicate. You’re practically blushing as you watch him create the sauce for the pasta, your eyes admiring your very hot fiance, and the stunning ring he’s just put on your finger. He smiles to himself, hearing you type away on your phone as he moves around the kitchen. You’ve, of course, gotta spread the word and let Sydney and Sugar know that you’re grateful for their help. 
As Carmy continues to make dinner, you find a good place to pause your ‘we just got engaged’ PR campaign. You turn your phone ‘do not disturb’ so that you can focus on just being here with him. It’s then that it dawns on you: you get to watch him do this for the rest of your life. Carmy, your best friend, with all of his little neuroses, all of his quirky tattoos, those brilliant blue eyes of his, and his tender heart that you’d protect at all costs… he’s yours forever. 
And you, his. 
And you think to yourself, that maybe, this was always how it was supposed to be.
fin.

congrats on your milestone sweetie!!! a hot white mocha with oat milk, and a slice of the rose milk cake from maison rose would be lovely 🌹 thanks! 🤗
a/n. thank u for participating babe xx i really appreciate it. your ask was giving xmas/holiday szn so i decided to riff off of that hehe enjoy ~ 
Tumblr media
🌹 WELCOME TO MAISON ROSE ! 🌹
Tumblr media Tumblr media
🤍 PAIRING. mikasa
🤍 WORD COUNT. 1.4k+
what sucks more than having to work during the holidays? no, really, you’re waiting for an answer while you’re cleaning up another spill on the counter for the third time this morning. how are people this careless about leaving their drinks near the ledge?
not only that, but you have to do an expert job of cleaning or else your boss, mr. clean freak levi ackerman, would tear you a new one. god, you wish you had made better plans in advance. 
and to make matters worse, eldians rarely believed in using the holidays to stay at home and relax. rather, it was a time of festivities and late night gatherings @ paradis’ trendiest cafe: maison rose. 
okay, sure you’re sounding bitter right now and not at all in the holiday spirit but you have a good reason and it’s that you miss marley and your family, but alas, it was your choice to “find yourself” and you just happened to find yourself enjoying making delectable drinks and pastries with levi during his retirement. 
you take a look at your watch. 11:30pm. two more hours until closing. you can do this. at this point, people were already wrapping up their conversations and heading back to someone’s house, so you’ve been spending most of the time touching up the cake display and cleaning the coffee bar.
as you’re loading up the dirty dishes into the back, you hear the laughter of your least favorite customer. okay, let’s get all the formalities out of the way: you love and cherish every customer equally and you strive to make the best drink every day. but you would be lying if you didn’t think about using the expired milk on eren jeager’s cafe au lait every time he visits. 
it’s not that he’s rude or mean…just a bit too brash and uncomely for your liking. you finally see him and his friends walking towards the counter to order: armin, jean, connie, and…some (gorgeous? ethereal?) raven-haired maiden  you’ve never seen before. what’s a girl like her doing with a crass, uncultured, oafish guy like —
“‘sup babygirl, y’miss me?” eren says, winking at you and effectively derailing your train of thought. you stop staring at the girl like some juvenile teenager and focus back on eren. he’s wearing a black supreme hoodie, and you’re pretty sure it’s fake. you roll your eyes. 
“what do you want, jaeger?” you ask, annoyed at his greeting for you.
he frowns at your unwelcoming response. “why’re you acting like you don’t know your favorite customer’s drink?”
you raise an eyebrow. “so one iced bleach latte for you?” 
“i bet that would actually be so good because i know levi keeps the good cleaning shit in the back.” he says, without missing a beat. 
“can you guys not do your usual antics tonight? it’s literally a holiday here…” you turn around to see levi with crossed arms glaring at both you and eren, and you both nod your head and play nice to not scare the customers away. you quickly start jotting down the orders of everyone with eren, but you only paid attention to one particular order. 
a hot white mocha latte with a slice of rose milk cake on the side. the same rose milk cake you had spent hours this morning decorating, and had only one slice left. was it super delusional for you to think that this was meant to be? a raven haired maiden to request the very last piece of your hard work?
you got so caught up in your fantasies (read: slight delusions) that you forgot to ask for her name. 
you pride yourself in preparing your drinks with care and detail, but for some reason, you found yourself frothing the milk a little extra longer for the white mocha, and being extra precise pouring the latte art. 
you call eren’s name for the drinks and he gets up to receive them. a thought pops into your head, and you know it’s gonna hurt you more than eren to say it, but…fuck it, it’s the holidays anyway. 
“eren, wait.” you hesitate to say, not even realizing you were holding a silent breath. your hands clam up. “uhh, who’s…that girl you’re with?”
just as expected, a sinister smirk forms on eren’s face as he sneaks a glance back at mikasa who’s chuckling at something connie has said. “oh? you mean mikasa? why’d ya wanna know? does someone have a cruuussh–”
“shut…up, jaeger!” you hush him, not wanting anyone else in the cafe to hear. “i don’t have a crush on her okay, god forbid i wanna know my customer’s names, jeez…”
“oh, okay, then you’re fine if i admit to you she’s my girlfriend?” you practically drop the last precious slice of rose milk cake from the plate you’re holding. ain’t no fucking way she’s with him…
“you’re lying,” you say definitely, calling our eren’s bluff. 
“okay, yeah, i am. but still, that means you dig her, oooo~”
you regret this already. oh well, at least you tried. “just take your stupid drinks and go.” and for once, eren does as you say. 
you notice eren’s party stays longer than most other people, and it’s probably because of their close history with levi, who has been making the rounds to say hello to his old survey corps colleagues. 
as the two hours dwindle down to minutes, you’re almost done wiping down the countertops and unloading the dishes. levi leaves upon your insistence that he enjoy a night out with erwin and hange, despite his groaning and moaning about just wanting to go home, so it’s on you to close up shop. 
you wave goodbye to eren’s friends, and scrunch your nose up in disgust at eren. however, you notice the most peculiar thing: mikasa waving them goodbye whilst staying behind. you’re confused, wasn’t she…?
mikasa collects her plate and cup and meets you across the countertop. she looks so pretty wearing a tight fitted stop and baggy ripped jeans, that you almost don’t register her greeting you.
“hey, sorry i’m bringing in these plates so late, i know you must be dying to go home…”
“oh! um, don’t worry about it, it’s not a big deal as long as you enjoyed your order.” you say warmly, taking the dishes from her. your fingers brush against her hands and you could’ve sworn there was twinge of pink on her cheeks. 
“it was the best drink! but i was really blown away about the rose milk cake? eren told me you make them every morning and design them yourself? is that true?” eren told her that? eren talked about you to mikasa? 
“oh, uh, yeah, i guess i do,” you say, scratching the back of your head. 
“don’t be so humble! you should be so proud of what you made. you’ve actually ruined cakes for me, so thanks for that.” you chuckle. 
“do you really like it so much? i’ve been saving a slice of saffron milk cake because it was leftover from today in the back, you want it?” 
“oh! eren told me you might have some leftovers in the back but i thought he was just messing with me like always.”
“yeah, you can’t ever trust that guy.” eren? telling mikasa? about your secret cake stash in the back? the last time you told him about that, you made him promise to keep it a secret while you two scarfed them down after levi left. 
“i never do! at least not for normal stuff like this,” she chuckles. that being said, you were glad eren’s big mouth blabbed this little secret. 
you go to the back and bring out two slices of saffron milk cakes for mikasa in to-go boxes. she stares at the cakes, before demurely looking at your eyes. the eye contact catches you off guard as she says, “maybe we can sit down and share the slices together? i don’t think we ever met, y/n. sorry, eren told me your name…i hope that was okay.”
wait? she asked eren for your name? “i’d love to, actually.”
the delusions were well and alive in your mind as you once again are convinced this must be fate, even if that fate involves a little bit of eren’s meddling. you take off your apron and join mikasa in the couch in the corner, where the two of you sink into the sofa, and end up way too close to each other as you share the cakes.
but neither of you mind it.

I’d love to hear your take on Tamrielic coffee culture! Imperial cappuccinos, Breton cafe au lait, Redguard iced coffee with lemon…so many options~
Coffee varies in popularity among the Provinces, but almost everyone enjoys a good strong cup of bean juice (and it tastes much better than stamina potions)!
Altmer
Coffee isn't the favoured drink of most High Elves, but it is enjoyed in small amounts around Summerset. The most popular way of drinking coffee there is a simple espresso, served in small cups for sipping alongside small cakes and biscuits in the afternoon. While some complain that espresso is too strong and bitter for their tastes, a good brew is smooth, rich, and flavourful, with notes of vanilla and fruits.
Argonians
Black Marsh is one of Tamriel's foremost producers of coffee due to the rich soil and warm climate that makes growing coffee relatively easy compared to other Provinces. Egg coffee sounds bizarre, but this Argonian take on the cappuccino is one of the best ways to drink coffee in my opinion! A strong brew, sweetened with sugar, is topped with firm, whipped sweetened egg whites and served piping hot. Simply stir the egg into the coffee before it has time to set, and you have all the benefits of a milky coffee without the milk.
Bosmer
Believe it or not, the Bosmer have found a way to make delicious coffee that's Green Pact compliant! While it sounds unsavoury, Wood Elves in Valenwood pick out undigested coffee beans from the dung of civet cats, who eat wild coffee fruits. The beans are washed thoroughly and roasted, with the civet cat's digestive system purportedly aiding in the fermentation of the bean, giving the resulting brew a rich and robust flavour. This 'luwak' coffee has become so famous that it's become a pricey export to other parts of Tamriel.
Bretons
Cream and coffee go hand in hand in High Rock, generally with a couple of sugar cubes or flavoured syrups or caramel for a rich beverage. Using cream instead of milk helps to ease the bitterness of Breton coffee, which is unfortunately made by boiling coffee grounds. As any coffee aficionado knows, boiling your coffee makes it rather sour and unpleasant, making the cream and syrups a must.
Dunmer
Of the races, the Dark Elves are probably the least enthusiastic about coffee as it is not native to Morrowind. However, coffee culture from around Tamriel has made the beverage more popular among the younger generations of urban Dunmer, who infuse their beans with marshmerrow during the roasting process. Served black in tall cups with a pinch of marshmerrow sugar, this simple drink is unique in flavour due to its sweet, candy-like aroma. For those with a taste for the exotic, add a splash of guar milk.
Imperials
In Cyrodiil, coffee is usually drunk with milk. Cappuccinos, made by topping coffee with frothed steamed milk are particularly popular, not least due to the fancy art that can be made by pouring the coffee into the milk in intricate patterns. While in itself it's not a particularly remarkable beverage, it's an Imperial staple that's enjoyed from the Colovian Highlands to Blackwood by young and old.
Khajiit
The Khajiit are famous for their drip coffees, in which coffee grounds are placed in small metal filters that slowly drip into a small cup, halfway filled with moon sugar-sweetened condensed milk. The resulting brew is very strong, very sweet, and bound to wake you up after the first sip.
Nords
Coffee is not particularly popular in Skyrim, but it's served as plainly as it gets: strong and black, and sometimes with a spoonful of sugar. However, what it's served with is unique to the Province. Coffee cheese, which is a slightly chewy and porous cheese, is dipped into the coffee and nibbled on as you sip your brew. I know it sounds weird, but give it a try and you'll be pleasantly surprised.
Orcs
Orcish coffee is always served with copious amounts of sugar and echatere milk. This simple drink is especially favoured by Wrothgarian echatere herders, who keep their energy levels up by sipping on this beverage throughout the day from echatere-skin flasks.
Redguards
Coffee is widely grown in the Bantha, making the drink a native Hammerfell staple. Whether it's served black, with sugar, or goat milk, coffee is often infused with spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla, and even chili. Another popular way of drinking coffee the Redguard way is the amusingly-named 'dirty chai': a strong double espresso mixed with equal amounts of spicy chai and frothy goat milk, and served with sweet pastries and biscuits as an accompaniment.

Character Intro: Triptolemus (Kingdom of Ichor)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Nicknames- God of Crops by the people of Olympius
Honey by his wife
Dad by his son
Trip by his brother & friends
Age- 37 (immortal)
Location- Achaea, Olympius
Personality- He's a dedicated hardworker with a general laidback temperament. He holds family, community, and wellness of the land to the utmost of importance. Despite being a grudge holder, he doesn't see the need for unnecessary drama in his life, opting for simplicity. He's married.
He has the standard abilities of a god except shapeshifting. As the god of farming his other powers/abilities include transfiguration (can turn beings into a plant, tree, or crop), being able to use ancient/modern farming and gardening tools proficiently as weapons, soil manipulation (edafoskinesis), as well as chlorokinesis (to a much lesser extent than Demeter).
A notable physical feature is his golden brown tan skin, due to him always being outdoors.
His natural scent is a mixture of fresh damp soil and sweet corn.
Triptolemus is a native of Eleusis. Mostly bad feelings and memories come up whenever he thinks about his homeland; never mind the constant death he was surrounded by in his early godhood.
He's married to Eunostos (goddess of the flour mill). They have a child- a son Deipneus (god of cooking & breadmaking). Other members of Triptolemus' extended family includes his younger brother Trochilus (god of the mill wheel), his father-in-law Cyamites (god of beans), his sister-in-law Promylaia, as well as his nephews Matton (god of meals) and Keraon (god of baking & wine mixing).
He lives on a thirty acre farm property with his wife in a french country style home. The house has natural wood flooring, a wraparound porch, antique furniture (like armoirs), wood beamed ceilings, simple yet elegant chandeliers, & nude and cream colored toile patterned wallpaper. On the same farm just a few minutes away, there's the house his brother and wife live in.
Triptolemus is a HUGE animal lover. On the farm there's cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, ducks, chickens, & horses. There are a few employees on the farm (like a leimonide named Maris), but he and his brother don't mind actively participating in the responsibilities of the farm like trimming the horses' hooves, bringing in/tagging the many crops, administering vaccines to the animals, or operating farming equipment.
He usually starts his day at the crack of dawn. Following a session of meditation, Triptolemus will ride through the farm on his horse- a quarter horse named Moxie then take a swim in the private pond. He'll then tend to his garden before breakfast.
Displayed in the living room is a farming pitchfork forged from adamantine by Hephaestus (god of the forge). It's taken the place of Triptolemus' former divine symbol.
He loves eating a steaming plate of gyeran bap for breakfast. He also really likes when his wife makes buttermilk biscuits alongside her cajun breakfast casserole (made with scrambled eggs, sliced andouille sausages, shredded hash browns, hot sauce, heavy cream, red peppers, various spices, & shredded cheddar cheese. He'll also enjoy a big bowl of Earthly Harvest cinnamon oat hearty nut medley cereal (which is cinnamon coated flakes, almonds, pumpkin seeds, pecans, and walnuts).
A go-to drink for him is bori-cha (barley tea) which he brews himself. He also likes his brother's homemade banana milk & sujeonggwa, mineral water, orange juice, his wife's homemade iced tea, beer, white wine, sparkling lemon cocktails, ginger ale, lemonade, mint juleps, good farmer cocktails, celery tonics, as well as hard cider cocktails. His usuals from The Roasted Bean include a cafe au lait and an olympian sized green tea.
There's a couple of secrets Triptolemus has kept close to him, only divulging in it with trusted beings in his social circle. In his early days of godhood, he was under the brief mentorship of Demeter (goddess of the harvest & agriculture). It's not a known fact in the pantheon or the public. His brother Trochilus was establishing his godhood in Corinth.
In the early days of the Titanomachy, Eleusis was the most fertile place in the entire country. Triptolemus and Demeter would be responsible for feeding many beings that were displaced due to the war. Every time the tax was raised, he would hand deliver a basket of crops to the needy and hungry families.
Triptolemus' earliest accomplishment in his godly career was when Demeter gifted him an Imperial Gold wheeled chariot, which was pulled by two majestic looking winged serpents. He traveled all throughout the country, feeding the hungry. Triptolemus was seen as a folk hero- first in Eleusis, then in Athens.
He had a quiet adversion to overseeing the Eleusinian Mysteries, being that he was never comfortable around suffering & death. He then spoke out against Demeter regarding her treatment of Celeus, the lord of Eleusis at the time as well as his family- particularly his son Demophon. Seemingly without warning, his chariot was revoked and Triptolemus has his mentorship transferred to Eubouleus (god of the swine & ploughing).
Even though he wasn't active in the war on the battlefield, Triptolemus supported Zeus (god of the sky, thunder, & lightning) and the rest of the Olympians.
After the war, he spent some time in Athens & reunited with his brother before settling in Achaea.
Triptolemus had no say in the matter when Demeter came back into his life by way of her newfound friendship with Eunostos and Promylaia. The family even relocated back to Eleusis while their sons were still little. At this point, he didn't tell anyone about his early godhood. Triptolemus always maintained a friendly disposition whenever Demeter came around and was surprised when his son & nephews developed a friendship with her daughter Persephone. When his wife and sister-in-law eventually had a falling out with Demeter, Triptolemus wasn't terribly surprised. When the family relocated back to Achaea, he finally revealed his past with the harvest goddess.
Despite his status as a minor deity, Triptolemus has two temples built in his honor- one in his native Eleusis and one in Athens.
He leads an active lifestyle through tai chi, riding horseback, jogging, working out, & even bullriding!
Triptolemus loves his younger brother and appreciates how protective they are for one another. Though their experiences in godhood was drastically different, they understand each other in a way that most can't, aside from their wives. They have a good working relationship as well, being that they're business partners.
He has a sandwhich inspired by him at his son's nationwide business The Bread Box. The farmer sandwhich is a toasted baguette with roasted chicken, sweet corn, melted brie cheese, tapenade, a thyme mayo spread, and romaine lettuce.
Triptolemus adores Eunostos. He finds his wife's supple soft skin & natural scent of flour and powdered sugar to be addictive. He also admires how she held her head high after the fallout Demeter. They enjoy spending time outside of their shared business- like taking a weekend trip to Athens to visit her father, traveling to New Olympus to see their son, or going on double dates with Trochilus and Promylaia.
He's heard whispers that the chariot (claimed by Demeter) was thrown into Tartarus following the end of the war, but he can't be too sure.
Triptolemus has a good relationship with his son and is proud of all of his accomplishments as a deity. He wishes that Deipneus would call him more often, but is understanding of his busy schedule. When he and his wife travel to New Olympus, Triptolemus (along with his brother) will play basketball at Eaglepoint Park with Deipneus, Keraon, and Matton.
Whenever he and Eunostos travels to New Olympus they'll either stay over at their son's brownstone in a guest room or they'll rent a room at The Hearthwood Inn.
His primary source of income comes from the business he co-owns alongside his brother, sister-in-law, & wife. The Achaean Flour Company is one of the largest manufacturers and distributors of flour & flour products. On his own Triptolemus is the head of the Farming Union of Olympius, an organization that works to improve the quality of life and economic well-being of family farmers, ranchers, and rural communities. He also owns a small farmer's market in the town's square, known to give away products for free sometimes!
In the pantheon Triptolemus is known for his finger licking yangnyeom chicken, fried chicken covered in a sweet & spicy sauce and garnished with sesame seeds.
His favorite sweet treats includes his wife's beignets, his brother's bingsu (sweet shaved ice), and his own baesuk and yaksik (sweet rice cakes added with nuts, dried fruit, & honey).
In the pantheon Triptolemus is good friends with Ktesios (god of the household), Karmanor (demi-god of the harvest), Priapus (god of fertility, vegetable gardens, livestock, sexuality, & masculinity), Apólafsi (god of enjoyment), Kópros (god of manure & excrement), Corymbus (Cory) (god of the ivy), Záchari (god of confectionery), Pan (god of the wild, satyrs, shepherds, & rustic music), and Hestia (goddess of the hearth).
Aside from Demeter, he also dislikes Limos (goddess of starvation & famine).
Triptolemus thinks that his son's girlfriend Pandaisia (goddess of banquets) is a sweetheart.
His favorite frozen treat is pear ice cream.
When he and Trochilus travels back to New Olympus soon, they plan on finally tackling the culinary behemoth known as the Mt. Olympus burger at Poté Tróei, the restaurant owned by Adephagia (goddess of gluttony).
For fun, Triptolemus hosts a gardening club every week, open to anyone. The members generally "meet" online on Fatestagram by use of video group chat, with an in-person meeting at his greenhouse. Maris is one of the members.
His favorite thing to get at Hollyhock's Bakery is the jumbo pancake cookie (topped with a buttermilk syrup glaze & a dollop of vanilla buttercream).
Triptolemus, Eunostos, Trochilus, and Promylaia always participates in the annual Achaean Beignet Festival.
Another trip he's planning is to Crete to see Karmanor compete in a bullriding competition.
His favorite meal is his wife's spicy sausage penne along with yangnyeom chicken, topping it off with a cold glass of hard apple cider.
In his free time Triptolemus enjoys gardening, cooking, baking, bike riding, swimming, basketball, sunbathing, golf, football (soccer), and sailing.
"The farmer has to be an optimist or he wouldn't still be a farmer."

Café Du Monde, 800 Decatur St, New Orleans (French Quarter), LA 70116
Tumblr media
When I think of New Orleans, Cafe Du Monde is the first food place that comes to mind. The iconic French Market location opened in 1862. They’re open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It feels like if you’re ever feeling low, a plate of hot beignets with a cup of coffee might do a lot of improve your outlook on life.
Choose an open table and someone will come up to you to take your order. You pay when the server brings your order. The menu is simple, beignets, café au lait, black coffee, iced café au lait, frozen cafe au lait, soda, juice, milk, and water. The au lait is mixed with half and half and hot milk and the coffee is French roast mixed with chicory. They always serve the beignets and café au lait with a glass of water (you don’t have to ask for water).
Beignets (3 French doughnuts covered in powdered sugar, $3.85): Very nice, served warm, soft pillows with crispy edges and lots of powdered sugar on top
Café au lait (small, $2.94): hot, milky and really good with doughnuts
The café does close on Christmas and when there’s a hurricane passing through. There’s a takeout window for takeout orders. You can also buy the coffee in cans, mugs, and beignet mix there.
There are other Café Du Monde locations around NOLA, including at the airport, but this one on Decatur is the iconic one. There’s powdered sugar all over the floors. I don’t know if locals ever go there since the area is very touristy. There’s live “music” seemingly non-stop and street performers. Jackson Square is a few steps away. It's easy to get to Cafe Du Monde if you take the Canal Street Streetcar.
Cash only.
5 out of 5 stars

A15: ep.3 No Sugar
Characters: Ryui & Toi Location: Other Summary: Ryui is stopped on his journey at the airport and he discusses “fatalism” with a certain man at a cafe. Proofreader: Shay
Tumblr media
Blended coffee: 500 yen        Hot chocolate: 680 yen
Espresso: 600 yen                   Green tea: 600 yen
Cafe au lait: 650 yen               Chai: 700 yen
Vienna coffee: 780 yen           Rooibos tea: 650 yen
Tumblr media
Ryui: (Hmm… I guess I’ll get a hot milk tea or chai.)
(Well, milk tea would be my first choice, but if they’re using processed milk, then I’ll pick chai.)
(There are neat places who’ll give you a whole pitcher of real milk, so that your cup of tea stays warm, though. The black tea at those places is real good.)
Won’t the other customers who’ve ordered black tea have a problem with that? If they’re giving you a pitcher of milk, then it’s gotta be the real deal…
*Ryui glances around*
Ryui: ……
Tsk. All I’m seeing are people with coffee…
??: …How about a cafe au lait?
Ryui: …Huh?
??: A cafe au lait. Iced.
Ryui: Shut up. Don’t talk to me.
(Lazy-sounding) cafe staff: Are you ready to order?
Ryui: ……
??: Espresso.
Ryui: …… I’ll have a cup of hot milk tea.
(Lazy-sounding) cafe staff:  Would you like milk or lemon with i–
Ryui: Milk.
(Lazy-sounding) cafe staff: Hot or ic–
Ryui: Hot.
(I said I wanted a hot milk tea from the very beginning.)
(Lazy-sounding) cafe staff: Alright. Please wait a moment.
??: Cafe staff hate arrogant humans, you know?
Ryui: Then stop talking to me and annoying me.
??: Hehehe…
Announcement: “This is an announcement for passengers taking flight ZE302 to Aomori.”
Ryui: ……!
Announcement: “We’d like to apologise once more for flight delays and cancellations due to poor weather conditions.”
“I repeat. Passengers taking flight ZE302 to Aomori…”
Ryui: …Tsk.
??: Will you curse the airport next? It’s not their fault the weather is bad.
Ryui: I didn’t say anything.
(I can’t believe the one flight I was trying to take to Aomori would end up being cancelled…)
…My luck is horrible.
??: Don’t blame it on your luck. You were prevented from being on that flight even before you were born – it’s destiny.
If I were to go further, I’d even say the fact that Toi was selected as the Shiramitsu family’s sacrifice instead of a certain someone is–
Ryui: How about you shut up? Divination? Destiny? I’m tired of listening to a fatalist.
I don’t believe in destiny or the things you say – I don’t believe in any of it. That’s why I’m leavin’ HAMA today.
??: Pfft, hehehe…! Oh, I know. I remembered something that might be of use to you.
Ryui: Huh?
??: It’s a heartfelt story – one which will give you courage. How many years ago was it…? Where did it take place?
Many lives were taken due to a certain race of people. They were packed into a train like sardines and taken to a concentration camp. They wouldn’t be able to escape with their lives intact.
There were irrational bouts of violence! And despair huddled closely together…!
But there was a psychologist who hadn’t gone insane. He continued to have hope and survived. Do you know what he believed in the whole time?
Ryui: I honestly don’t care.
??: He continued to believe the fact that he would be the one to take hold of his own fate. He’ll carve out his own path in life and that he was the protagonist in his own story.
Ryui: ……
??: Even in a situation where his own life was in someone else’s hands, he kept a sharp eye, found the freedom he could control and concentrated his efforts on that. It seems humans can gain happiness that way.
Subjectively choosing a cup of black tea that’s hot and mixed with milk can also lead you to happiness, Ryui.
Ryui: …What’re you trying to tell me?
??: It would be nice if your cup of tea arrives in one piece. …I hope it’s hot and has milk in it.
Ryui: Huh?
(Lazy-sounding) cafe staff: Thanks for waiting.
Ryui: ……
(Lazy-sounding) cafe staff:  Here’s your espresso and iced cafe au lait.
??: Hahahaha!
Ryui: Hey, were you even listening to my order? I said I wanted a hot milk tea.
(Lazy-sounding) cafe staff: Huh? Did you…?
Ryui: Ugh! It’s fine!
(Lazy-sounding) cafe staff: Okay. …It’s fine?
Ryui: I said I’m fine with the iced cafe au lait so leave it here!
(Lazy-sounding) cafe staff: But… uh…
Ryui: Don’t make me repeat myself. I said it’s fine so it’s fine.
Put it down. And get back to work.
(Lazy-sounding) cafe staff: Okay. Sorry.
Ryui: ……
??: You look like you’re in such a happy mood.
Ryui: You knew I’d get a cafe au lait from the very beginning. You were just making fun of me by talking about happiness or hope or whatever.
??: Will you deny the fatalism by saying it was because of that moron who took your order?
Ryui: Cafe staff will hate you if you badmouth them, you piece of trash.
??: Hehe… Either way, you’ve understood now, right?
No matter how hard you try to defy fate, you’ll be pulled right back into the box you were originally in and contained there.
That’s what “fate” is.
Ryui: ……
??: Your path will not change even if you investigate your roots in Aomori. The heavens have indicated this by “cancelling your flight”, have they not?
Ryui: You’re just saying that now to make your fatalism more convincing. Outsiders should just shut the hell up.
If I can’t take a flight there, I’ll just use a different method of transportation.
??: Humans cannot see their fate. Therefore, they have sweet dreams. When I see you struggling like an infant, I can’t help but find you pathetic and endearing.
Ryui: Tsk. Ugh, gross.
??: How does the cafe au lait taste?
Ryui: Not enough sugar.

I offer you and your OCs a nice Hot drink (your choice) and a box of snacks.
Aww thank you!!
For me, I'm more of an iced drink person, but I love a good peppermint mocha or a caramel macchiato!
Rae would get a chai latte
Robin would get a cappuccino
Madison would actually be fond of matcha
Ophelia isn't picky, as long as it has espresso in it
Jasper would get a cafe au lait
Kestrel would get some kind of herbal or fruit tea
Katherine would get a latte, maybe with vanilla and cinnamon
Quinn also isn't picky, any coffee is fine
Eris... we're not gonna caffeinate Eris.
Nikoletta would get regular coffee with milk and sugar, or maybe some kind of tea. It had better be strong, though - weak drinks remind her of prison
