Hey there, to all the friends, enemies, and lovers!

I'm known as "Monts" and I'm an officer from the Tamamo Clan. Happy to make your acquaintance. With the new crop of Lost Souls that have found this corner of hell, I hope you've settled in with whatever faction you're assigned to and that you had a great welcome. 💖

Anyway, I want to get to know some of you a little bit more! It's nothing invasive, promise. What I'm proposing is...!





You see, I used to work at a magical cafe called "The Midnight Grind." Currently, I don't work as a barista but I'll have to polish up my skills again. These are a small sample of the drinks I would serve to customers from all different corners of all the different worlds!

Anyway, just look at this image and see which drink and description you're drawn to most, and let me know! It gives me a good idea of what to make for others in the future. Just have fun with it! Oh and maybe tell me about your favorite drink?? ☕🍵

[ooc: OTA and feel free to threadjack around!]

Hah, I have a friend who almost certainly would try it as well, if only to say he had.

Perhaps it's the novelty of it that's more appealing than... all those ingredients?

[empression]

I would have to assume so.
Well, in my friend's case, it probably was the ingredients.
Is this friend of yours Sholmes-san?

[UM]

[softshoes]

[well, he can't exactly deny it when she's NAMED him!!]

Now, was that a very lucky guess, or has Sholmes mentioned me?

[empression]

As much as I would like to claim that I'm that skilled...
Sholmes-san did mention you were living together now.
As well as the fact that this had also been an arrangement prior to this.

private and spoilers

[softshoes]

[sigh....that's twice now, really Sholmes...]

I had been trying to stay somewhat discreet about it, given our factions, but, yes. He is a very dear friend of mine. If any good thing could be said about our current circumstances, it would be that we are able to cohabitate once more.

[empression]

Oh! Then, my apologies for saying it so bluntly.
I'd forgotten the two of you were in different factions.
But I'm also happy for you that you were able to spend time together here in a familiar fashion.

[softshoes]

[Believe him, he also wants to forget. Everyone he knows from home is split across faction lines--]

Oh no, it's all right. I'm simply never sure of how, well... acceptable the arrangement is.

[--but it seems like people are always fraternizing across them anyway, so maybe he's too worried about it?]

At home, I live in Japan, and he in London. Until shortly before we found ourselves here, we had spent years only communicating by letter or telegram. I confess, I'm still sometimes surprised to see Sholmes every day.

[empression]

That would be surprising, wouldn't it? To go from so far apart to seeing each other every day.
I'm happy for you both, though. It seems strange to think of Hell as a place that would allow you to reunite, but all the same... that seems better to me than letters.
