Who: YOU, MY FRIEND & The friendly staff of Thistle Do Nicely, a humble flower shop.
When: IC: 29th January to February 14th (OOC: Starts 3rd July, full month log.)
Where: Thistle Do Nicely, Shopping District.
What: It's nearly Valentine's Day, so there's sales and events! Want to learn how to make chocolate? Look here! Cashing in your coupon for the upcoming Blind Date player event? That's here too! This is a mingle log, so everyone come mingle to your hearts content, and come in anytime, there's no such thing as late.
Rating/Warning: Nothing so far. There might be some future nightmares.
NOTE: There are some forward-dated prompts/part of prompts in this log. This is to coincide with the Blind Date Player Plot this month! More links and updates will be posted here once they come up.
Also if you wanna know how this works, it's just a mingle! An example here, our previous open mingle log. Treat it however you like, open and closed options welcome.
--------
Welcome to Thistle Do Nicely! Make yourself comfortable and browse the grand selection. In spirit of upcoming Valentine's Day, the store is decorated in pink and red, hearts scattered here and there. Sweet soft toys are on display, and there are bargains to be found. The tea shop is also decked out, but there seems to be something extra special happening on that side too.
A: ROSES ARE RED, VIOLETS ARE DISCOUNTED
[Are you here for the flowers? Sure you are, it's a grand tradition that all Valentines must share: the giving of flowers to loved ones. Roses are a definite favourite, but maybe you're after something more unique? Then look no further! Ask one of your friendly staff about it. Or maybe they're coming to you! But if they do, some may have the misfortunate of being told by the mysterious NPC boss to repeat the following: "What can Cupid's assistant do for you today?" Yeah, it's pretty embarrassing.
Or maybe you've bumped into a friend! In that case, buying flowers for Valentine's Day? Are you proud of this, or are you so embarrassed you must hide all evidence.
Alternatively, time has passed and you're now here because you have coupons for an additional price cut on your flowers if you are taking part in the Blind Date event. Blind dates can be particularly nerve-wracking, so let this store make things a little easier for you. You'll thank them for it.]
B: ANYONE WHO HATES CHOCOLATE IS A MONSTER (no we're kidding we still love you)
B.1: KITCHEN NIGHTMARES
[In all walks of life, chocolate is a very popular gift for Valentine's Day. And in some places, even more importance is placed on whether it's homemade or not. A section of the tea shop has been cleared just for this: earthy tables now have small stoves on them and ingredients set out. It's time to learn how to make chocolate. These classes are lead by head chef Shokudaikiri Mitsutada and his (reluctant) chef's assistant Ookurikara, but you can be sure that all the other reliable staff of Thistle Do Nicely are getting in on the action to help out (or learn themselves) too! Maybe Mitsutada and a handful of staff will make this great. The other half...
Everyone interested in these classes will gather round each of these tables, and together you will learn how to make chocolate. It's a team effort, so discuss with each other and work together to perfect it! In the end, you will be given cute little boxes or bags to put your chocolate in so you can give it to those intended. Or yourself, you can eat them too. Alternatively, you were forced into this mess, or have no idea why you're here but you're going to roll with it because it's chocolate.
The classes are free, happening a couple hours a day, but the ingredients require a small donation to keep the classes going. These classes are ongoing, so by the time you've gotten your Blind Date, you don't have to donate if you show them your coupon.]
B.2 CHOCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS
[Or maybe you're not here for the classes, you're spending time on the other half of the tea shop where it's still set for customers. The tea shop half of the entire store is not actually that big, so you might be finding it a bit cramped.
That being said, a treats bar has been set out as a complimentary offer. There's a chocolate fountain in the middle of this bar, and you know you wanna dip some heart shaped marshmallows or fruits in that sucker. There's also these flower shaped gummies. No one actually knows how they got there, but maybe for the sake of science, you want to coat it with chocolate and eat it.
Do it.]
C: WILDCARD.
[Because there's so much more to explore! Or maybe you're just here to visit and laugh at them. Or maybe you wanna use the tea space as a PLACE FOR A DATE, AYYYYYY in which the scene from Lady and the Tramp could happen and there will be a cute musical number (look, I'll have it arranged, I'm not even kidding. Too bad I can't get an Okiayu character to do it though, you might have to make do with a loser girl). Or maybe you've MESSED UP THIS ENTIRE PLACE Vietnam will kill you with her bare hands (unless she likes you, then you will live).]

no subject
[Noooo, did he just get Miss Vietnam in trouble? He puts the lily remains inside his back pocket, as if that could make all the last five minutes disappear. His voice becomes milder:]
If you wish to inspect us, I can show you everything er...sir.
[And follow his every step so he will not do anything terrible to their beautiful store.]
no subject
[ If he'd been on a bicycle, Penguin-san would have backpedaled his way off the roof. Hyoubu grins. ]
In that case, show me where the fire extinguishers are kept.
no subject
This way, sir...
[It's not like he knows how to use them, but he can figure it out if necessary! Heck, he was not born yesterday.]
1/2
When they finally get to the demon sausages, he bends down to inspect them. After a long few moments, he stands again, apparently satisfied. ]
Well, this all seems to be in order. Now, if you wouldn't mind...
no subject
no subject
...
[So, how long does it take for the angel menace to drop the demonic sausage on his foot?
The answer is: one minute and fifteen seconds.
Now, that hurts. He breathes in the sweet fragrance of flowers and tries not to scream.]
Haha, I-I am new to this! A new employee, you see. [He takes a moment to delicately wipe his tears off with a handkerchief.] I am quite certain the others are better trained to put out conflagrations and such.
no subject
The pin. You pull it. Then squeeze the handle, and aim the nozzle at the base of the fire. Sweep back and forth until it's out.
[ He levitates the fire extinguisher into his hands and demonstrates (without actually pulling the pin or squeezing the handle, as tempting as it is to blast Kevin with ice-cold CO2. ]
no subject
I- right. Pull, squeeze and sweep...Is the floating really necessary, though?
[Humans. God gives them some fancy powers and they all turn into exhibitionists.]
People may be watching.
[Things one quickly notices about Kevin Cecil: the closet is deep and real.]
no subject
Well, yes. Probably they are. Everybody's interested in a fireman.
[ He makes a "V" sign, cheerily. ]
They want to know if there's a fire. Feel free to oblige, if you like. We both know you're capable, Mister Flaming Spears.
no subject
WHAT SORT...What sort of fireman encourages people to set things on fire?
[You, sir, are very suspicious.]
Besides, I know nothing about flaming spears.
[Hyoubu keeps talking about things that NEVER HAPPENED and that makes him very nervous.]
1/2
Slowly: ]
What part of "fire man" do you not understand?
no subject
[ He grins, maddeningly. He practices in front of the mirror, actually, to make it as maddening as possible. ]
Kidding about the spears, too. Nobody does that sort of thing anymore, it's too on the nose. Too biblical.
[ He pats Penguin-san on the shoulder, reassuringly. The right shoulder, he's learning. ]
no subject
Now, there is nothing wrong with biblical.
[He will just...cover his face, to hide from the man's infuriating smile.]
Forgive me for pointing that out, sir, but discretion is not your forte, is it?
no subject
Cheerfully: ]
Nope!
[ Instead, he simply levitates a flower crown from a workbench and settles it very, very gently onto Penguin-san's head. Simultaneously, he shoves the fire extinguisher into Kevin's hands. Hopefully he won't drop it this time. ]
Well, don't worry. I'm done here. I've seen all I need to.
[ The location of the cash register, for starters. ]
no subject
...Ahh, thank you for taking care of our safety. Though are you certain you do not wish to purchase any flowers? Chocolate, maybe? It is very rewarding to show one's appreciation for others. Besides, someone as considerate as you must have a special someone in mind.
[God have mercy on their souls.]
no subject
[ He shoves his hands in his pockets and frowns. And flushes a bit, too. But just a little. JUST A LITTLE! ]
Where I'm from, only girls and women give presents on Valentine's day.
no subject
Whatever the case, the blushing seems real enough.]
Ahhh, but would a rebellious spirit like yourself bend to such limiting conventions? Especially when presenting someone worthy of your attention is at stake? Ohh, I do not believe so, sir! Not by far.
[He can recognize a rebel when he sees one. Has punished them for ages, after all.]
no subject
Shut up! Nobody asked you!
[ ...he's going to pull the pin on that fire extinguisher and squeeze. Sorry, Kevin. ]
no subject
He is going down. Seriously, he cannot swim. And since Hyoubu caught him unawares, there is that fraction of a second in which his disguise falls. There is a pristine white wing, and DIVINE LIGHT. And then...just a wet and freezing florist again. Perfectly normal, really.]
ARE YOU INSANE?
[Cough, cough, cough.]
no subject
Tch.
[ He'd felt that divine light and seen the wing once more. It had spoken to some deep part of his hate-blackened soul. His jaw tightens. ]
He's part bird — so what? It's got nothing to do with me.
