[01] A Day at the Cafe -- Open Mingle

Who: John Miles (Jaune) and/or WHOEVER
When: May 14 [day]
Where: The Blue French Horn Cafe
What: Open Mingle for anyone wanting a place to do an open mingle for in person interactions! Doesn't even have to be with John/Jaune unless you want to -- maybe let me know if you're wanting him specifically. Feel free to set up threads between other characters. Hoping to establish this as a cool hang out |Db


Option 1 - Breakfast/Brunch Crowd
The Blue French Horn was usually a busy breakfast and lunch destination, but Sunday seemed to be even busier than usual. John was in charge of opening today, so if you got there between 6:30 AM and noon, John probably wouldn't have much time to socialize. He had to take orders and bus tables, running plates of their famous beignets or cups of coffee to various patrons. If he saw a familiar face he'd stop by to chat, but otherwise he let the customers have their conversations and hope that staying busy would keep his mind off of the app.

This proved difficult as it insisted on beeping at him occasionally if he didn't check it between rushing from table to table. Normally his mom (the owner and manager of the restaurant) would scold him for having his phone make so much noise, but strangely enough she never said anything. He didn't have time to ask, nor did he really want to draw attention to it. Maybe his mom was preoccupied with her own work. Whatever the case, feel free to take a seat and John will be by to take your order shortly!

Option 2 - Lunch/Dinner Crowd
A little later, around 1 PM John is out of his uniform and slumped at a back table. He's exhausted from his morning shift -- but he has some homework to finish up before tomorrow. Not to mention eat some lunch of his own, check his phone, and just relax for a second. The restaurant is still experiencing its lunch rush (or at least the end of it), but now you won't get John as a server. That doesn't mean he won't say hello to a familiar customer or face though. He should start pulling out books, but instead he pulls out his phone. A familiar orange app greets him as usual and he takes a few minutes to check what's been going on.

He won't be on his phone the entire time though, you might also catch him at his homework, though honestly he doesn't want to spend his whole day at the cafe and will probably head out around 2 pm to get some fresh air.

"I figured he would." Ciro's mouth quirks up a bit. Haruka has always been kind and hardworking. That he's seen John so soon... Yeah, not surprising at all.

Shifting his weight while holding the bike, he nods. "Then we'll see you soon. Do you have any plans on your days off, or are you just winging it?" While the festival is coming up, Ciro knows that for all the Gardening Club might be full of energy and things to do, not everyone else has that same kind of schedule filling their plate.

Probably for the better, in John's case, Ciro has to admit. He has enough to do with the cafe and tutoring.

Ah, the lack of sleep- Ciro laughs a little bit too. "Well, you're not the first one. We have some random older student who keeps ending up asleep in the gardens somehow. If you ever feel like you want to do the same, just let me know." He ducks his head with a smile as he starts to move on. "I'll even cover you in leaves for camouflage."

Have fun with that idea, John, and Ciro looks up again to wave. "Thanks. I'll be sure to stop by your family' booth at the festival!"
