    "I decide to stop by the cafe after refusing breakfast from Ami a good four or five times."
    "It's nothing against her cooking. In fact, it kind of feels like Ami's carefully tailored her abilities to the best of my liking."
    "I just feel compelled to get out and actually do things every once in a while."
    "Or at least trick myself into thinking that I'm doing things when, in all actuality, I'm just roaming around in hopes of more easily bridging the first half of the day to the second."
    "Regardless, I am at the cafe now. And so I must do what is customary for any cafe-goer-"
    "Hit on the barista."

    r "Wait, Sensei? I almost didn’t recognize you on account of the normal clothes and slightly threatening aura."
    s "Threatening aura?"
    r "Slightly threatening. Like a bear, but if the bear was asleep or missing both of its hind legs."
    s "Good. That's pretty close to what I was going for so I'm glad the change of clothes helped."

    scene cafe1

    r "Weird seeing you drop by, though. Didn't take you for much of a coffee drinker."
    r "So, what can I get you?"

            s "If that's the case, I'll just leave with nothing."

            r "No one actually {i}forces{/i} anyone to use those sizes, dude. They're more of a quirky suggestion than a flat out rule."
            r "Forcing people to say {i}Venti{/i} and {i}Grande{/i} and stuff is more like a...fun little movie thingy."
            r "But anyway, what do you take in your coffee? Milk? Sugar?"
            s "Just black, please."

            with dissolve

            r "Woah, really? You're not just trying to upgrade your slightly threatening aura to full on threatening, are you? Cause I wasn't trying to wake the bear."
            s "Nope. That's just how I drink coffee."

            r "Because I’ll have you know I’m pretty great when it comes to this barista stuff."
            r "Humble brag, but I can kind of run circles around the rest of the staff here."
            s "Impressive, but no. I really do just drink my coffee black."
            r "If you say so. At least it’ll be easy to remember your order."

            s "Is that before or after my teacher discount?"
            r "Oh, sorry. My b."
            r "New total is 500 yen, Sensei."
            s "Wait, why did the total go up?"
            r "Probs cause I used my employee discount on you. But hey, if you want to feel cool and use the teacher one instead, be my guest."
            s "No, I think I'm fine with being an employee for the length of this transaction. Thanks, Rin."

            r "I’m surprised, though. Ordering a feminine drink like that really makes your slightly threatening aura even {i}less{/i} threatening."
            r "Now, it's like you're an unconscious bear without any legs at all."
            s "Not only girls can enjoy (copyrighted frozen beverages), you know."

            r "Right, right. I guess you were just so masculine that I expected you to order a bowl of nails and beard oil."
            s "I have no use for beard oil without a beard."
            r "You still want the nails, then?"
            s "Extra nails, actually. Thank you for asking."
            r "Damn, you're actually pretty good at this barista banter, Sensei. Most people would've said something really awkward or lame by now and here you are about to eat nails for me."
            r "I admire your dedication."
            s "So, what do I owe you?"
            r "Total is 600 yen. You can just leave your money on the counter and go take a seat. I'll bring it over when it's ready."

            s "It's tacos or nothing, Rin."
            r "Sensei, we don't sell tacos here."
            s "Then why was I even given this option? That doesn't make any sense."
            r "What option? What are you talking about?"

    "Or, at least that's what I {i}would{/i} be doing if I actually intended to hang around, which I most certainly do not."
    "Should I have informed Rin of this at the time of placing my order? Maybe. But she also should have asked."
    "So now there is not much to do apart from standing awkwardly in the middle of the cafe and waiting for her to return..."

    s "I meant to order my drink to-go."
    r "You know you...can still sit down if you order something to-go, right? Then just...get up once it's ready?"
    s "Or I could remain standing and make everyone here equally uncomfortable."

    scene cafe9

    r "Ah- sorry! I was just curious about whether you’d like it or not."
    s "I mean, I did order it. I wouldn't have bought something if I wasn't sure I'd like it."

    "Wanting to appease Rin and quell how uncomfortable this is beginning to make me, I bring the beverage to my mouth and-"

    s "..."
    r "So? Good?"
    s "I mean...yeah. But..."
    r "But what? Tell me."
    s "Rin, this isn't even close to what I ordered."

    s "..."
    r "..."
    s "Well, is there an explanation for that? Or..."

    scene cafe11
    with dissolve

    r "Oh, I guess. Though, it's less of an explanation and more of just me using you as a guinea pig."
    r "You see, that's a custom recipe of mine. And I’ve been trying to get my manager to add it to the menu, but she’s been all like, “No way! You can't just change the menu, Rin!”"
    r "So, I figured if I was able to actually get some more people on my side, I might be able to persuade her."
    s "I see..."
    r "So, now that you've tried it and liked it, I'm going to need you to write on one of her comment cards that I'm the best barista ever and that she should listen to me more."
    s "I'm not sure if I can, in good faith, call you the best barista ever when you didn't even bring me my actual order."

    r "I swear I was going to right after you tried this one!"
    r "Here, I'll even go get it right now. I just-"

    s "It really {i}is{/i} good."

    scene cafe13
    with dissolve

    r "You...You really think that? And you're not just lying to me because it's customary to flirt with your barista?"
    s "I really think that. I'm going to need one of those comment card things if I'm going to recommend it to your manager, though."

    scene cafe14
    with dissolve

    r "Yeah! Totally! I'll go get one right now!"
    r "Just hang tight, okay?! I'll be right back!"

    "Rin quickly dashes to the counter to grab me a card and I wind up having to sit down after all."
    "Unfortunately, a wave of customers all decide to show up at once and I'm unable to continue talking to her once I have my comment written."
    "Not knowing how long it will be until she's free again, I wait for a moment where she's distracted and place the card down on the counter before leaving."
    "And as I step out into the street with an indiscernible beverage in my hand, I come to realize something."
    "It's that I am now only slightly more than a lab rat."
    "And that the future of my beverage choice hangs in great jeopardy at the hands of a single teenager."
