[Zerataku]

It was starting to get cold outside, something Zera enjoyed completely. Hot weather made her itchy and sweaty, so she tried to avoid it at all costs. She had been walking downtown to meet up with some friends but they never showed up, and when she turned around the corner she spotted a shop called "Spunky's Cafe" right across the street. Just the name of it sounded warm and welcoming to her, so she crossed the street when the crosswalk turned green and stepped inside. A bell sounded as she opened the door. She took her black jacket-vest off and held it across her arm as she looked around at the decor. It was pretty elegant for a coffee shop. She guessed this place would probably cost a lot, but the tempting smell of the various coffees kept her from leaving. She stared at the pictures on the wall for a little bit and then sat down at an empty table, feeling quite lonely because there were empty chairs at it.

[Merry Gentry]

Merry had been out of town for so very long, she wondered if her feet would even recall the way to Spunky's.  It was the memories of the beautiful cafe and the table by the window that brought her out that day, looking for the friendly cafe.  She loved the very simple tranquility of the shop, the way it would allow her to sit and gaze for hours out at the people around her.  She quickly found herself at the front door and stepped inside, the small jingle of the bell on the door the only sound of her entrance.  She made her way to the counter, and poured herself a large mug of raspberry coffee, with a hint of cream, and moved toward her favorite spot.  Sipping the hot beverage, with the sunlight streaming into the window, she idly wondered where Night Stalker was.

[Night Stalker]

Night returns to clean up the booths, leave out fresh drinks and assorted baked items for all to enjoy before adding some rather large festive decorations all around the place including a brightly covered large tree.

[Merry Gentry]

*wanders in, leaving a small gift under the tree, the tag saying To Nightstalker, <3 Merry*

[Night Stalker]

NightStalker returns to the cafe tidying up the back rooms including the old stock items replacing them with fresh ones before entering the main cafe area to tidy up any booths that may have been used.  The one present under the tree catches the corner of his eyes, smiling softly he carries it with him as he leaves.

[Polokiller]

Noah poked his head in the door, then ventured in, picking up a bakery good, leaving some spare change on the counter.
He sat at a table, fairly alone. He didn't mind.

[Merry Gentry]

The cold wind caught the door just as she pushed it open, causing it to crash loudly into the small cafe.  "Sorry" she mumbled, bundled in her warm scarf, her voice barely audible through the cloth. Heading to the counter, she pours and extra large mug of the hot Raspberry flavored coffee, by far her favorite.  Just a splash of cream and she's moved to her favorite spot by the window, book in hand.  Sipping the hot beverage, she casually watches the world go by.

[Polokiller]

Noah watched her enter and, feeling particulary lonely, stood up and sat next to her.
"Hi. I'm Noah."

[Merry Gentry]

Peering up from her book, she smiled "Hi Noah, I'm Merry.  How's it going?" she ask politely.

[Polokiller]

He smiled back warmly.
"It's going well. How about yourself?"

[Merry Gentry]

She nodded slowly, "It's going pretty good.  Getting ready to take my bff out for dinner. It's her birthday and her husband is an ass, so... I'll be making her smile instead.  Things going alright for you during the approval process?" she asked interested in this fairly new person.

[Polokiller]

"Yeah, it's fine. Waiting for them to start approving again. Eh, they deserve the break. it's the holidays, for gods sake. they're people, too."
He chuckled to himself, looking back at her.

[Merry Gentry]

"true, it's hard waiting though.. but you'll get there. Till then, just have fun and don't worry about it" she grinned, thinking he'll fit in just fine here. 

[Polokiller]

Noah smiled to her.
"Trust me, I'm enjoying it already."
He leaned back in his chair.
"So how long you been on E?"

[Merry Gentry]

*sips the warm coffee, enjoying the delicious smell*
About 7 months or so... it's quite lovely here

[Polokiller]

Noah smirked and shrugged, taking a bite of his bakery good. He finally concluded that it was almost like a cinammon roll, but had the taste of ripe summer apples fused in there somewhere.
"Yeah. The people here are pretty nice, I've answered a few crazy questions and done two prompts, so far."

[Merry Gentry]

"aaahhh... the crazy questions! I loved that part!  You know, the more you answer and participate,
the quicker the review process.. once they start in again" Merry replied, with a smile.  "sometimes I go through
people's intro threads, just to say Hi, give them a break from answering all the time"

[Polokiller]

Noah laughed and smiled.
"Yeah, yeah. I know what you mean."
He looked around, pondering his next question.
"So what made you interested in online role-play?"

[Night Stalker]

NightStalker leaves fresh coffee, tea, orange juice and assorted baked items out for all to enjoy and to wish Everyone a safe and happy New Years.

[Kairi]

Kairi walked through the town with no where else to go she finally gives up and walks into a random cafe, spotting Noah she smiles happily making her way to the table. "Hello mind if I join you two?" She says with a bright smile.

[Merry Gentry]

Welcome Kairi!, motions her to sit and join us. .. waving to Night stalker, with a wink, and a kiss
of course you can join us... as for my interest in Rp'ing.. well a friend dragged me, kicking an screaming

[Night Stalker]

Returns a warm smile to Merry Gentry and hopes all is well for her.

Welcome Noah and Kairi to the Cafe, help yourself to anything you wish for while here.

[Polokiller]

Yeah, thanks Night.
I just love the hospitality around here.
