Affurgato Mingle: July edition

Who: Open to all
Where: Affurgato
When: This week
What: An open mingle at the restaurant which is... mysteriously celebratory!
Rating: who knows, probably PG/13ish?


Regulars of Affurgato might notice things have spiced up a little bit in the last several days; the decor is a little brighter, the staff more upbeat, and the food, while tasty as ever, is a little different. The restaurant is advertising a summer menu of slow-cooked BBQ sliders, sweet potato fries with honey butter dip, grilled pineapple and watermelon slices, and warm peach cobbler with ice cream. The prices are slightly more premium than usual, but ooh, doesn't it all smell worth it? Newcomers might even get a discount, if the right elf twin gets their bill. But how do you know which one's the right twin? ...Yeah, good luck with that.

For this week, the menu will include two curious additions as well: a Thanksgiving-esque meal including fresh slabs of turkey and stuffing, flavoured with bacon grease, and a slice of rainbow layer cake. The cats are very attentive, especially to recognizably good tippers, and there's a display sign outside the door with a doodle of a binicorn in flashy sunglasses shouting the words "ONE YEAR MORE, NERDS", which might be weird to those who know that Affurgato opened about six months ago. Ah, well.

Also noteworthy is the fact that an actual, tangible magical bicicorn will be running around for the first 45 minutes of every daily shift that the restaurant is open, trying to scoop people up onto his back and deposit them in front of the shop. You're here now, so you might as well get a meal, right? Don't question it.

Come one, come all! Enjoy some good food and the company of your neighbours, maybe visit the elves and see what's up.

[This too is a reasonable assumption, all things considered. 'Being a Plant' wasn't really very high on the list of possible reasons to have no parents in this world. While she wouldn't have minded if he asked, Vianca strangely felt relieved to just gloss over it for now. Pity, she found, was much different from actually caring and Vianca didn't really need or want it.]

All right.

[This meant he was going to get... all of them, because she was also putting in an order for the grilled fruits. How very sneaky.]

You just got here recently, didn't you?

Just a week.

[ How healthy of her, ordering fruits. ]

Still adjusting, if you couldn’t tell. [ And he’s a grown-ass adult! ] This is the first otherworlder-owned cafe I’ve been to.

I could.

[It was true.]

But only because I have not seen you before. There are only so many otherworlders here. I believe this is still the only cafe one of us owns, so you found it early.

Couldn't exactly miss the advertising, if you know what I mean.

[ A BINICORN.... ]

[A binicorn!! Vianca nodded.]

It has been very effective this week.

[She tilted her head a little to look up at him.]

It is nice to meet you. My name is Vianca.

Nyx. [ He replies with a nod. ]

And... I'll owe you one.  I mean it. Say the word if you need any help, I'll be there.

[ OOC: handwave the rest? ]

[It can be done. And so, not so sneakily, Nyx ended up with a whole plate of sliders and Vianca had two (2) pieces of fruit. Everyone was satisfied.]
