Cat Cafe AU

[aceofcrows]

Welcome to the cat cafe -- Coffee and Cats!

It's a quiet, well-run cat cafe featuring a half dozen permanent residents and another half dozen adoptable cats. The coffee is good, fresh, and prompt, and the sole employee is ... well... he looks a bit like he should be in a gang with his height, long hair, and goatee. However, he's incredibly gentle, shy, and absolutely wonderful with cats and small children. (Even if he's afraid he will break something.)

Come in, find a seat, and enjoy the atmosphere. Open from 11am to 2pm and 6pm to 9pm every day.

Have you ever gotten a thrill doing something you knew was wrong? Like sneaking into a place when it's closed or jumping a turn style at the train station?

[aceofcrows]

Not really...

[shootykawa]

You're so pure! I should probably be in trouble just for talking to you like this.

[He looks over his shoulder for someone preparing to drag him away before he taints this sweet cinnamon bun of a man.]

[aceofcrows]

That's too over dramatic.

[shootykawa]

Oh? You're pretty pure. Like the driven snow.

[aceofcrows]

It's not a bad thing.

[shootykawa]

No, it's not. But it does make me want to take care of that... make you impure like me.

[aceofcrows]

Ah... mm... m-maybe... I... could make you... more pure?

[shootykawa]

How would you do that?

[He's not opposed to the idea.]

[aceofcrows]

Um... I don't know... We could... just... do stuff? I wouldn't mind help with the cats sometimes, and we could ... um... I don't know. Do stuff that isn't impure?

[at a loss really]

[shootykawa]

I will have you know impurity is only like 20% of my day at most. I do a lot of things that aren't filthy, they're just not as fun.

We're going to a movie soon, that's pretty pure. And we held hands...

[aceofcrows]

[smiles with a quiet amusement]

Yeah, we did.

[shootykawa]

I can feel myself getting purer just sitting here.

[He's thinking very filthy thoughts though. That's pretty normal for him.]

[aceofcrows]

[laughing softly]

Drink your tea. It will help with that.

[shootykawa]

[He takes a sip, slowly, it's still hot.]

What did you mean when you said I could help you with the cats?

[aceofcrows]

Sure. I'll talk to the owner tomorrow, but I don't know why it wouldn't be alright.

[shootykawa]

You mean me getting a job at the cafe with you? What if the cats don't like me?

[aceofcrows]

I don't think we could do that, but we have volunteers to help with the feeding and care of the cats after hours. Cats have a lot of different personalities. Not all of them are super friendly, but not all of them will be super standoffish either.

[shootykawa]

I don't know... I feel like that's a recipe for disaster.

[aceofcrows]

It's not. You'll have fun.

[shootykawa]

[He is skeptical of that.]

You don't have any cats in your apartment, do you?

[aceofcrows]

Not yet...

[shootykawa]

Are there any cats at the cafe you have your eye on?

[This is a much safer conversation topic.]

[aceofcrows]

One of them is pregnant...

[shootykawa]

Gross!
