Helleste Café Fall Open Catch-All

🧙 WHO: Harry and You (fellow café baristas and customers alike)
⚔️️ WHAT: A day in work at Helleste Café (the Fall Edition) and Harry dealing with people admiring his new looks
🕒 WHEN: Whole of September
🗺️ WHERE: Helleste Café
⚠️ WARNINGS: None at the moment


(With the changing of seasons from summer to fall, it’s getting pretty busy at Helleste Café as it gears up for Fall: they started to serve up seasonal drinks (such as golden, red, and brown sugar lattes) and food (like salmon pasta with pumpkin salad sandwiches, sweet potato fries, roasted turkey panini sandwiches, prosciutto and arugula flatbread, maple pecan cupcakes, hazelnut tarts, and apple parfaits) along with their usual permanent food and drink fare. Baristas are at work as they prepare for the season: making drinks and food, manning the register, and handling customer inquiries. Several of them could be seen wearing fall leaf pins on their aprons while at work.

The leaves of some of the trees that dotted its interiors have even changed colors into vibrant reds, oranges, and yellows (some even would fall gently onto the ground), the cushions on the sofas and armchairs have been swapped out for fall patterns and colors, bright rugs that were used throughout the summer have switched out for ones in fall colors, while the lights themselves changed into a warm amber to compliment the season. Some flowers were nearing the end of their life cycles while others begin to bloom once more, giving off a nice lovely scent to compliment the smell of brewed coffee and baked goods.

Shortly after getting a magic vision correction surgery and a hair cut during the weekend after the Kymbyr quest, Harry has returned to work after a day of rest and plenty of the people have started to notice the new look he has been sporting. To be fair, he does feel a little awkward about people staring at him for no good reason, but honestly, the denizens of Camelot actually give him really sincere compliments; heck, some even congratulated him while giving him tips. While it will take him some time to adjust to it, the change in looks surely give him an extra boost in self confidence that he does need.)

Thanks! It's just a trial run for now, just to see how quickly we can make them and how they might sell. But it's a start!

Yeah! Even if we only sell them for a little while, I can still say that we were able to use something of mine.

[ Amy starts working on the order after it is put in, fixing up one of the seasonal lattes for the customer. ]

[ She giggles. ] Yeah, I definitely agree.

[ More customers start to enter, and Amy works the extra cash register to keep the customers from having to wait too long. ]

[ Amy focuses on her work as well, putting together drinks and grabbing pastries from the bake case to give to customers.

It's a lot of work, but it's kind of fun, in a way. ]
