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.

Better to have it set up. Set the box down and find the bowls. He'll need water and food set out too. It's just a few minutes longer, and then he'll have the full run of this place.

[shootykawa]

Okay, I think he can be patient.

[He sets the box down and gets out the litterbox, food bowls and food.]

You're still going to help, right?

[aceofcrows]

I'm going to help. It's not hard.

[after he finds a place in the bathroom, he'll talk Oikawa through the steps of setting up the litter box and explain the scooping of it too.]

[shootykawa]

It's not hard for you, since you do this all the time, but it's new for me.

[He puts water out and starts fiddling with the food.]

[aceofcrows]

[he smiles gently]

You're a smart guy. You shouldn't have too much trouble with it. Ah... a third cup of the dry food tonight. He ate at the shop so he shouldn't be too hungry now.

[shootykawa]

Okay, okay. I can do this.

[He goes to the meowing box and gives Asahi a look.]

Is it okay to let him out now?

[aceofcrows]

[nods and waits]

[shootykawa]

[He opens the box carefully.]

Okay, Chester, you're home now. Although I don't know if you're going to be 'Chester' too much longer...

[Chester hops out of the box and immediately wedges himself under the couch to hide.]

[aceofcrows]

[pats Oikawa on the shoulder]

Successful introduction. Let's get some food ordered.

[shootykawa]

Are you sure? He's hiding from me... I thought he liked me.

[He's turning to look under the couch at the cat.]

[aceofcrows]

He's just in a new place. He'll calm down in a bit. He has food, water, and a place to pee ready for him. We'll set out the rest of his stuff while the food is coming.

[the cat is in the middle-veryback of the couch looking back at him o_o]

[shootykawa]

Okay...

[He's not convinced. He keeps glancing back at the cat.]

What do you want for dinner?

[aceofcrows]

Pizza?

[he's getting out some of the other items Oikawa got for the cat]

[shootykawa]

Sure, but nothing weird on it.

[He offers Asahi some "non-weird options" and hopefully they can negotiate a pizza they both agree on.]

[aceofcrows]

[he'll go with the second option. and then he'll tap Oikawa's foot with his own]

Ah... are you going to order?

[shootykawa]

Yes, why?

[He stops before he can dial.]

[aceofcrows]

Ah... I didn't know if you wanted to keep staring at Chester or not.

[shootykawa]

Oh... well, will you tell me where he goes if he leaves?

[He does have to turn around so he can dial without staring at the cat more.]

[aceofcrows]

[oh dear... he keeps an eye on the couch, but he's not as eagle-eyed as Oikawa was. once he's finished ordering the pizza]

Ah... do you want to watch a movie?

[shootykawa]

[He perks up.]

Do I want to watch a movie with my boyfriend? Of course I do!

But I feel a little weird sitting on top of Chester.

[He leans down to look at the cat again.]

[aceofcrows]

[cat looks back]

I don't think it would hurt him, and with us sitting, it would probably help him calm down more.

[shootykawa]

Okay...

[He sits down carefully on the sofa.]

You want to pick something? I'm not picky and I will probably just end up cuddling with you and stuff anyway.

[aceofcrows]

Ah... [sits down beside him] Um... something not scary...

Skyscraper?

[shootykawa]

Sure.

[He leans over to look under the sofa at Chester. He gets a O_O in response.]

Awww...

[aceofcrows]

[pats his knee]

He'll be fine. He did pretty well in the shop. I don't think it will take him too long to adjust here.
