Grand Opening - Mingle
🧙 WHO: Kagami and everyone
⚔️️ WHAT: Kagami opens up his diner. Please go here for an idea of what it looks like. Just PM me if you have any questions. Doubles as a Mingle log if you want to drop any open threads!
🕒 WHEN: Throughout March
🗺️ WHERE: Camelot City
⚠️ WARNINGS: None
Help Wanted
[Obviously, before any sort of profit could be made, Kagami had to hire help. So, he had put an ad out on both the network and in the paper looking for hire a few people. He would likely need one other full time cook, plus probably a part time one. He also needed people to wait tables. This place wasn't going to be huge, so he wasn't entirely sure how many he would need right now. A few in the morning for the breakfast folk, but likely more for the lunch and dinner rushes. During the week likely wouldn't be so busy compared to the weekend, so he needed to work all that out.
He figured, however, he would cross that bridge when he got there. So, if you're interested in being part of the waitstaff, a cook, or even just a busboy/girl, then please put in an application or even give him a call!]
Grand Opening
[The diner wasn't all that big in the grand scheme of things, but Kagami didn't mind. He wasn't looking to have some gigantic restaurant. While he could say he just wanted a little bit of home, his home was also two different countries that he truly loved. So while he would eventually expand the menu, he figured the classic would be good enough as comfort food for the folk of Camelot, both native and refugee. It also didn't mean he was ever giving up on his dream to be a pro basketball player, but he also had to be realistic. Home was frozen in time, there was no NBA here, and while he could go into his back-up plan of being a firefighter once he got his elemental magic stronger... well, this sort of fell into place a bit quicker and easier.
Getting a permit wasn't too difficult, although printing out flyers and asking around for anyone who wanted a job and figuring out how much to pay and them and such was. Figuring out the floor plan, the menu, etc. That was all definitely a lot more difficult and would have been had he been doing this all on his own. But no, his basketball crew (for lack of better term) really pulled through on helping him out getting started. He was surprised but also entirely grateful.
And so, in the beginning of March, Kagami's Diner officially opened. As with anything that made him nervous and excited, he didn't sleep the night before. So, he was already at the diner to make coffee for himself and get the breakfast menu going for if anyone stopped by. He wasn't expecting much in the morning, he figured more would stop by during lunch and dinner though. He just hoped it didn't get too busy!]
JAPANESE LUNCH TIME RUSH
[Okay so.
Kagami had hoped the diner would do well. But holy shit, it was so busy lately?! He didn't let the food suffer for it, but he was definitely getting harried with the hustle and bustle. He was very glad the menu was pretty simple. He would expand it when he really got a handle on things. But for now, please be patient, y'all! Your order is on the way! It was also around this time that Kagami had set up outside seating as well. Animals weren't allowed inside (yes this was due to his dog phobia but also because that just wasn't sanitary, okay?) but to help compensate he had est up seating outside as well.
He was just thankful it wasn't impeding on any foot traffic to create a sort of patio area. With Takao's insistence he also added a sort of "Dog & Cat Menu" for anyone bringing their dogs or cats in. It was generally nothing more than an all meat menu, to be honest. Burger patties, meat balls, etc. They all arrived with a free bowl of water as well.]
After Hours
[It was 10pm and Kagami was still cleaning up the place. He didn't mind, it gave him a chance to wind down. He allowed any of the waitstaff to go home at this point too, they didn't need to stay and clean but he certainly appreciated if they did. The jukebox played some music in the background as he moped up, lifted the outside chairs onto the tables and tied them down, swept the area, and let the cold March air keep him awake. If anyone walked by, they would get a nod or if they walked in, there was a polite "We're closed, come back tomorrow."
Otherwise, he was open to chit-chatting. But any stragglers were gonna get the boot, although loitering outside was fine as long as they didn't trash the area.]
