WHAT In person!!
WHERE Heavenly Grounds
WHEN day 19 tho
NOTES the doors are closed but the post is open

[ Given all the LASER SECURITY on the place, it's no surprise that many of the fine, upstanding citizens of Quiet Mounds would find their way to one Heavenly Grounds coffee shop to take shelter, feast on day old scones, and in general just not get their asses kicked by hoards of the undead. Let's join them now, as the adventure continues . . . ]

[ like a zombie apocalypse is going to stop her from getting her pastry fix

or some locked doors, or state of the art security system. when did she even come in, anyway? ]

[There's a girl who has been lying on her side on the couch since last night and through much of the day. However, she's a light sleeper, so she's mostly been dozing, snapping to wakefulness each time somebody passes by.

She really overdid it with her powers yesterday, so she's still exhausted, but presently she sits up, rubs her eyes, and puts her glasses on.]

It hasn't stopped yet, has it?

[There's a very tired looking girl eyeing the pastries. She's not very hungry, but it would probably be best to eat something.]

I've never seen bread like this before.

Not yet.

But then, maybe you're still dreaming. It doesn't look much like you're ready to wake up just yet.

Quiet little mouse, aren't you?

I'm fine.

[She looks really sluggish. She also suddenly realizes that this is the giant beautiful lady that flirted with her last night and was possibly watching her sleep, oh gods what the fuck.]

...What's your name?

[ ... swallowing her bite of croissant ]

If you like sweet things, you'll probably like it.

Mm?

[ swallowing her mouthful of croissant ]

On occasion, I suppose.

[knocking very politely on the counter next to the register. it's like deities don't even care about expensive lasers and locked doors anymore these days.]

Excuse me, is the shop still open...?

[SOMEONE is irritable, tapping his foot restlessly, and sucking on hard candy after hard candy

due to how he can't smoke indoors.

taps foot. tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap]

All of the food here is very strange.

[She reaches for a croissant and takes a bite, and tries to decide if she likes it. Maybe.]

I've heard they bake bread with yeast in far off lands. That must be what this is. In my country, most bread is corn tortillas.

It's not a bad occasion to mind one's noise, this.

[ UH HUH. LOOKS SUPER WELL RESTED. ]

I'm Urbosa, of the Gerudo. And what might I call you . . . ?

Who can say.

[ she has no idea. ]

[ Rrrrraises an eyebrow ]

I suppose I could try the other cafe... but they're not so well armed, so it's less likely they'll have service.

[whoa holy shit]

Oh. Hi. You're new!

That would make this seem the better choice. Perhaps he just stepped out for a moment.

That's right. I've been thrown quite the welcome party.

[She tries to straighten her hair, which is currently all over the place, but fails.]

I'm Hlasoh. Um, of Taasenji.

Yeah, this has been pretty exciting. Although I guess it won't be exciting again until we try to fix it.

I'll wait around. I don't have anywhere else to be on a day like this.

[ shuffles from one part of Heavenly Grounds to another, quietly checking in on people when she can. if it doesn't look like someone's asleep or anything, she might even ask: ]

Um, are you okay? Can I get you anything?

No, no. But how sweet of you to ask.

Hmm? Do you have a lead on the source then?
