A new Café is situated in the botanical gardens. Beautiful wooden and floral décor can be seen through the cracks in the cloth that were supposed to block the view of anyone snooping around from the construction occurring inside.
A brand new sign is placed on the street

Upon inspection of the restaurant, an A4 sheet of paper is stuck to the front door.

-Have fun
-
Enters the cafe. "Hmm? New and a bit deserted at the moment... Maybe, oh it's in construction." Zaida said as she held a paper looking at the application for the job although wasn't sure.
-
Perry walked through from what was going to be the kitchen through to behind the bar. He was wearing old, slightly large construction gear and brandishing an oily cloth and wrench. Perry whistled to himself contently before noticing the stranger.
"Oh sorry" he said with a little surprise in his voice.
"We're not actually open until Friday"
-
"I know, Just came to see who is in charge of this cafe just in case I may apply for the job, Apologies" She said "I'll come back later then" she finished walking out.
-
Perry wiped his hands on the cloth he was holding.
"Just drop me a message whenever you want" he called out as she left
"Even pop in when we're open if you want"
-
Setcho walked up to the Cafe with his application and peered through the window, nervously itching the back of his neck.
-
Perry walked out if the café with his things. It had been labourous getting the kitchen hooked up with gas but worth it instead of relying on electricity.
The sun was setting when he saw someone looking through the side window.
"You must be Setcho" he said as he locked the front door.
"Don't worry I got your email. I was about to respond to it, just got carried away with work"
Perry smiled and went up to shake Setcho's hand.
"Welcome aboard" he said before walking off with a whistle.
-
Setcho was baffled and blinked a few times "As easy as that huh? well..okay then" walking they way he came from.
-
The sun was high and shining again as Perry was back to work some more.
Whistling as ever, he unlocked the front door and set off inside to work.
-
You hear an indescribable noise from outside.
-
Perry ran outside to see what on earth the noise was.
He'd almost dropped a large piece of copper pipe on his foot from the shock.
-
Arcizo was inside helping with construction when he heard the strange noise. He ran out with Perry.
-
Perry went back inside.
It was as though the previous day hadn't happened.
The Café would open tomorrow...
-
Arcizo followed and continued with the construction.
-
The Café was set!
Perry cut the ribbon with a pair of golden scissors as the Mayor watched.
"I declare Café l'oiseau open!" he said as he ran inside to get the stoves going before anyone even considered ordering anything.
-
Setcho could be seen wondering down the street wearing some smart but casual clothes, he was nervous but couldnt wait to get started.
-
Exile ran in quickly, as he had been an idiot and forgotten to remember that today was the opening day.
"imlateimlateimlateohnoimlateimlate"
-
Perry blinked as Exile ran in...
He was just pinning up the new Menu
Scones and Jam - $5
Soup of the Day (Vegetarian Minestrone) - $7
Pasta Lunch (Lasagne with Garlic bread and almond flake salad) - $12
All Coffee/Tea - $3 (Medium) / $4 (Large)
-
Addison poked his head into the cafe sheepishly. Wondering who he should see about trying to find work here. He was a little wary as he had noticed Exile run in screaming about how he was late.
-
Setcho casually strolled along the path that leaded to the cafe, whistling as he went. Arriving at door he opened it and shyly stood inside.
-
"Welcome Setcho." Perry said with a smile
"Get used to your station while you can," he said pointing towards the coffee bar "we don't have many customers yet.
"And how can I help you?" Perry asked, turning his gaze towards Addison.
-
*crest entered the café quickly and went behind the counter* here sorry I'm late *he says setting a couple things up*
-
"Oh, erm...I was wondering if I could apply for a job here?" Addison had a CV in his hand as well, which he extended towards Razot. "I assume you have a place. Seeing as how you just opened...and stuff."
-
-Setcho
Walks over to the bar, looking at his work space thoroughly.
-
*Crest starts the kettle in anticipation * better to be safe than sorry
-
"Hmm," Perry said to himself and then out loud to Addison as he read the CV "We need more waiters if that's something you're interested in doing?"
-
Exile entered the kitchen.
"Its time to cook!
...
as soon as an order comes in...
This may take a while."
-
"Sure! I can do that! When do I start exactly?" Addison's ears perked up, he was quite excited.
-
*crest was walking around the counter a bit jumpy* hmm what to do? *he said, wanting everything to be as good as it can* why am I so jumpy at the moment *he says as he slows down*
-
"Right now if you're up for it!"
Perry disappeared for a moment and returned with a uniform
"What size are you? and speaking of which..."
Perry snuck up on Exile and planted a chef's toque on his head
"Uniforms for all staff!" he said as he brought out uniforms of various sizes.
Black trousers, Black shirt and White apron and a white jacket for Exile
-
-Setcho
A clutter came from behind the bar, as some cups fell on top of him...luckily they didn't smash.
-
Perry was startled but kept his form
"Are you ok?" he said, almost interrogating Setcho
-
Addison took the uniform and peeked at the label, looking a little confused as it was pretty much his size. Might be a little big and slightly baggy but he prefered his clothes like that anyway. "This will be fine. I'll get started straight away! Just as soon as I get this on." With that he quickly searched for a changing room or something similar.
-
Exile took his uniform, inspecting it. He thought that it wasn't as bad as he expected it to be.
"Alright.... Thanks"
He went off to quickly put on the uniform.
-
"The bathrooms are around the corner" Perry said as he pointed through the café
"Rather use the Disabled so you don't take up the other two"
This was purely business for Perry
-
-Setcho
Rubs his head, nodding. "Yeah...i found the cups..."
-
Addison headed into the bathroom and quickly got changed into the loose fitting and baggy uniform. He came back out and looked around. He had never really been a waiter before, he hoped he'd do well.
-
"Hmm," Perry thought to himself some more "It will probably shrink in the wash"
The uniform wasn't exactly from best of designer brands...
"Awesome," he said out loud to Addison
"You're the first Waiter on shift so good luck. Just show some charm and be as welcoming as possible. Listen to what I say and what the Chef or Barista says and we can all work together on this. I want this establishment to put customers before all else, so when you greet a guest, bring them a glass of ice water so they can settle in and ask them if they would like the newspaper as you bring them the menu. After you've brought them the newspaper, bring them the menu and take their order. Stay alert and stay attentive"
He gazed into Addison's eyes and then Setcho's and Crest's.
"I'm sure you guys won't disappoint me, judging by your CVs"
Perry wasn't sure if Exile had heard him, but He'd probably give a similar speech to him when he had a moment.
"Just because we don't have customers yet doesn't mean you can slack off, but that doesn't mean you can't have fun while doing it"
He winked as he said that and set some smooth Jazz on the café's sound system
-
Addison nodded and did his best to make a mental note to write all that down. He then grabbed a newspaper in preparation for the first customer. He would get the water when they entered, otherwise it wouldn't be sufficiently cold.
-
-Setcho
straightened himself out adn got everything ready, he first impression was already ruined...
-
Arcizo was loitering around the cafe bar waiting for customers.
-
Rasha was walking by with a 3DS in his claws as he sees the cafe, so jumping with joy he ran to the front door and walked inside to check out the place and see what it had in store.
-
Addison smiled warmly as he approached Rasha. "Hi there, welcome. If you'd follow me, I'll show you to your seat and once you're seated I'll get you a complementary glass of ice water." He then gesture for Rasha to follow him.
-
Rasha smiled and fallowed the nice as he licked his chaps.."What do you guyz zerve here?"
-
Arcizo was about to welcome the customer but then notices Addison already has. He started drawing in his waiter notepad on the cafe bar.
-
Addison gestured to the first seat at a table with a nice view from the window. "I will bring you a menu momentarily." He placed the newspaper on the table. "Feel free to read the paper as you wait."
-
He nods and sits down in the seat you suggested. Rasha grins as he looks at the pictures and closes it to chew the news paper, which he eats in a few minutes and looks out the window..
-
Perry tilted his head towards Setcho
"I think..." he said quietly
"We're going to have to give the menu before the newspaper from now on"
-
Arcizo slowly looked up and saw the customer eat the newspaper and was a bit wierded out. He then looked back down and continued to draw.
-
-Setcho
Nodded in agreement, wiping his surface down...even though it want messy..
-
Addison tried his best not to stare as Rasha ate the newspaper. He walked off to fetch a menu, tucking it under his arm and quickly poured a glass of cold water, dropping a couple of ice cubes into it. He then returned to Rasha and placed the menu and glass of water on his table. "There you go. Feel free to take your time before ordering if you need to, there's no rush." He paused,wondering if he had forgotten anything. "Oh and my name is Addison, call for me f you feel you need anything."
-
Rasha blinks a bit but nods and looks at the menu upside done, and then sets it down to drink his water. "Me Razha it'z nice to meet you." He said like rubbing his chin as he wiped his glasses then putting them back on..
-
Addison smiled then stepped away from the table and walked over to Arcizo. "Well that went well."
-
Perry slapped Addison and Arcizo on the back.
"Keep it up"
-
Addison flinched at the slap on the back. "Okay boss. I'll do my best."
-
Arcizo was startled, he messed up his drawing and quickly hid it after Perry slapped him on the back. "*clears his throat* W-what yeah, will do"
-
"I wonder if we should have a Halloween party" Perry said out loud to himself as he visualised various decorations around the Café
-
*cresst was on the floor going through the cupboards as he said that, crest then shot straight up and hit his head on the counter* ow. And yes Halloween is a great idea
-
Exile returned to the kitchen, wearing his uniform. Making sure to wash his hands, he waited for an order.
"Alright, let's not mess up on the first day..."
-
-Setcho
Liked the sound of Halloween, it was his favourite holiday and liked dressing up.
-
Addison was sat down at a table, gently tapping his index fingers against the surface in a rhythm.
-
*vice walks into the cafe* did I miss opening day?
-
Rasha waves his hand as he smiles in glee."Ummm I know what Razha would like to eat."
-
Setcho stood behind the bar, washing cups with a towel as he hummed.
-
Aelyn walks into the Cafe, and stands in the waiting area, eager to check this place out
-
Addison walked over to Rasha and smiled warmly. "Okie doke, what would you like?" A notepad and pen in his hand so he could note down the order, just in case he somehow managed to forget it.
-
He grins and flips the menu and pionts at a picture of a prestal burger and a tower of donuts.."That one, and that one pleaze."
-
Arcizo walks over to the customer. "Hi there welcome to Café l'oiseau. How are you today?"
-
Addison noted down Rasha's table number and that he wanted a pretzel burger, and a tower of donuts. "So a pretzal burger and a tower of donuts, right? Would you like a drink as well?"
-
"Yez, oh and az for a drink I would like to drink a bowl of Fanta." He smiles and pulls out a 20 dollar bill on lays it on the table...
-
*Looks up* Ah hello! i'm great thank you!
-
"My name is Arcizo and I'll be your waiter. If you'll follow me to your table please." Arcizo grabs a menu and news paper and leads the customer to the table.
-
Addison writes down that Rasha also wants a bowl of Fanta then stands straight. "I will hand this to the cook then." He then headed over to where Kro was and happily presented the order. "Here ya go. Our first actual order!"
-
Follows the waiter to the table and sits down
-
Kro walked over to Addison, examining the order.
"Alright... A pretzel burger? Urn... Unusual. I'll get to work, give it about 20 minutes."
He set off to start cooking.
-
Rasha was wiggleing in joy since he might have to come here often, since he makes money being a mail boy, so getting all the energy is important..
-
Arcizo walks to the bar and grabs a glass of ice water. He then walks back over to the customer and places it on the table. "Here's your free ice water. Have you had a chance to read the menu?" he asks
-
Takes the glass, thank you. And yes I have thanks, i'll have the spaghettin bolognaise with chilli please
-
"Sure. Would you like a drink with that?" Arcizo asks.
-
Kro began to cook up the food. He started on the pretzel first. He sure hoped he wanted a pretzel, or the customer would probably be very upset. He also readied the bread for it, as it was, after all, a pretzel burger.
-
Rasha yawned a bit as he gulped his water down and was thinking of the yummy burger...
-
Arcizo walks into the kitchen and over to Kro. "Order for spaghetti bolognese with chilli" he states.
-
Kro nodded to Arcizo, adding it to his mental list. He then finished the pretzel burger, and the tower of donuts. They were ready to be served.
-
Yes please! Sorry for the wait, I couldn't decide what to have, i'll take a Coke please!
-
Setcho takes a glass and gets the drink pump and fills the glass with coke, placing on the side of the counter.
-
Gets up and grabs the Coke, been busy today? Aelyn asks Setcho
-
"Kinda quiet to be honest...not complaining" He chuckled.
-
Aha I feel the same way at work mate! He turns and walks back to his table and sits back down.
-
Setcho wiped down the surface and smiled, finally actually doing something for once.
-
Loote looked up at the cafe sign on the building in front of him. "Hmm, that's new." He thought, before looking through the windows, and shrugging. He pushed on the door, and entered the cafe, before stopping and standing at the door, and looking around shyly.
-
*he enters the cafe as well, in the Barista uniform, but you have never seen him before, and he obviously doesn't work there*
-
"Oh, hey there!" Loote smiled awkwardly, stepping aside in case he was in the way. Once he had, though, he had a look at the new entrant. "A raccoon, we're nearly related" He thought, but looking at the clothes stopped him from keeping that train of thought. "So wait... does he work here or not?" Loote thought, unintentionally staring at the newcomer.
-
Of course I work here *he walks over to the bar*
-
After Kro dished up the spaghetti bolognese and chilli, Arcizo took the plate and walked over to the customer. "Here you are sir" He set the dish down, "If you need anything else, please ask" he stated. Arcizo walked away and back over to the bar and started doodling again. Soon after, he realised two people walked in. He noticed one had a barista uniform on and thought there were no other employees and he had never seen him before. He walked over to him. "Can I help you?" Arcizo asks.
-
Thank you waiter! Starts eating Spaghetti
-
An impoverished bear explored the botanical gardens, relaxing in the calmness and beauty. He spotted the cafe and decided to take a peek inside, but he doubted he could afford anything from the fine place.
-
Rasha happly devours his pretsal burger in glee.
-
No, not that I can think of, can I help you?
-
"No, i'm good" Arcizo said, confused. He looked around and noticed a bear. He then walked over to the bear, "Hello, welcome to Café l'oiseau. How may I help you?" He asked.
-
Geoff was surprised, not expecting to be talked to right away. "Oh, uh, n--I'm fine for now, thank you. Just, uh, looking around."
