Taking it slow, but it's not typical
Who: Dave Strider callbacks and all y'all's lovely faces!
Where: Goldenrod City
When: Throughout the month of March
Summary: Come bug Dave at his part-time gig at the nice combination café/bookstore. OR, if we have plans (or you'd like to make plans; hit me up at![[plurk.com profile]](https://plurk.com/favicon.ico)
asherdashery, it's public) I can write up a starter just for you!
Rating: Probably nothing over PG-13.
Log:
[Food service is...well, it's everything movies told him it would be. But as far as workplaces go, the café isn't half-bad. The bookshelves make everything seem quiet even during busy hours, and the comforting scent of paper and coffee fills the space. Dave actually kind of looks forward to his shifts there.
The best part, though, is making the latte art. It took him a while to get the hang of it, because it's got to do with as much science and math as it does art, but Dave is nothing if not a master of timing. Most customers will get a heart, leaf, or tulip, but at slower times of day, he might experiment with drawing a little more.
(He has, of course, also figured out how to draw a dick in your latte. But that's neither here nor there.)
He's a quiet, friendly server, and as long as it's not caffeine crunch time, feel free to request your favorite Pokémon. Or if you're the only one there on a slow day, just wait--he might surprise you.]
((OOC: So! Since this log is open all month, please give me the date you want our thread to go down. I'll also be updating a thread tracker of sorts below so it'll be easier for all of us to find the right thread. Threads do not have to take place in the café! I just provided that as a starter for people who just want to chill with Dave. I'm gonna be throwing a bunch of non-coffee-related starters in here, too.))

What? Me--oh, uh, I.
[He'd been so distracted talking that he didn't even think of something to get himself. He looks at the offerings and oh god it's all so like fancy and real-looking and shit, what is he supposed to do. Finally, he points to a chocolate-chip cookie. That should be safe enough.]
Just a cookie, I guess.
no subject
[He plucks the cookie out of the display case and wraps the whole thing up carefully, before taking out his own card and swiping it through.]
Here you go.
no subject
[Look at him, he's so flustered and embarrassed by the gesture, isn't he cute.]
How come nobody lets me pay for anything around here?
no subject
[There's a soft 'voir?' from the kitchen, and a Gardevoir floats out.]
Ah, Alice. Dave showed up.
[The Pokemon shoots Naoya a look that clearly means 'why didn't you tell me this?' and turns back to Dave and Breeze, curtsying.]
It's very nice to meet you. And who is the little one with you?
no subject
Uh, hi. Yeah, this is Breeze. Breeze Nuts.
[Breeze warbles his own jolly greeting and hops from Dave's arms to his shoulder.]
no subject
It's nice to meet you, too. I've been wondering how you've been. You don't need anything, do you?
Relax, I'm taking care of it.
[She shoots him another 'shut up' glare.]
Well, even if you need to talk, feel free to call us at any time, all right?
[Naoya just huffs in response. Alice you have no idea how teenagers work. Please just stop.]
no subject
Uh, sure, all right.
[Wow it is almost like he has a whole support network growing here, how crazy is that. He looks from her to Naoya, then huffs a little and shrugs.]
Okay, but if you guys ever want a coffee or something where I work, that's on me. Cool?
no subject
[Coffee is love, coffee is life.]
