[Karkat never goes into the weird little maid cafe. it's just not in his world at all. he wasn't even aware that Rei worked there.

but he was passing by, and it's hard not to notice a bunch of cute girls in cat ears, and he stops to look at the spectacle for a moment.

he really should tell Nepeta about this.]

hey bb you so fine cursed_tattoo June 15 2011, 06:53:20 UTC

[She considers turning tail (no pun intended) and fleeing until Karkat leaves. But that would be rather juvenile, and there's really nothing wrong with working a part-time job until she saves up the money, right? ...Right?

Anyhow, she slips away to poke her head out the door before she can stop herself, and gives Karkat a slight smile in greeting]

Hello, Karkat. Why don't you come inside?

oh gosh that icon is so cute dungenessmaster June 15 2011, 07:00:01 UTC

[yeah Karkat's not even trying to hide his surprise.]

Rei? You're in on this, this, uh, whatever the fuck it is I'm looking at right now?

isn't it just? I love being able to use it lmao! cursed_tattoo June 15 2011, 07:03:16 UTC

[His surprise makes her self-conscious again and she blushes, clearly embarrassed]

Ah... I needed a job when I got here, and nothing was open for my skills... So I'm working here to save up money.

I'm opening a gallery. [pause] I can make a lot of money in just one night, so...

Anyhow, this is a maid cafe. It caters to people--mostly men--who like this sort of thing.

SUP REI, SUP RHODE. (anyone else can come too) neverbeenworse June 15 2011, 06:47:14 UTC

[Have one (1) certain red head, standing juuuust inside the cafe doors. Lured in by curiosity, he tripped on through the door, then stopped cold, completely out of his element. He was pretty sure Julie had mentioned cafes like this back home with a lot of pretty girls who fake paying attention to you, but never had the subject of cat ears come up.

It's...it's odd. To say the least. And he can't do much but stand there awkwardly and gape.]

HI BBY. <33 COME TO SAVE YOUR NOTMOM FROM THE PAWS OF OLDER PERVERTS? cursed_tattoo June 15 2011, 06:58:44 UTC

[She's never too busy to come see her notson! She places one finger under his chin, to indicate he should close his mouth before he starts catching flies, and smiles slightly]

You're blocking the doorway, Enma. Come on, I'll seat you.

I didn't think you were the kind of guy to come to these places. [she's teasing, of course, but still.]

neverbeenworse June 20 2011, 06:47:07 UTC

[Enma silently closes his mouth and follows Rei. Trying not to stare. Trying really hard not to stare]

I-I....no. Not even. At home. I--

[She just slips an arm protectively around his shoulders and leads him to a table]

This is the first time you've visited me at work, I think.

Don't worry, I'll take care of you. [If you know what I mean.

Only not really.]

WELL HELLO THERE MISS KAMELOT screw_disorder June 15 2011, 14:58:37 UTC

Cat ears, huh.

[guess who showed up JUST FOR YOU, MISS KAMELOT.

he's got his hands in his pockets and a pleasant little smile on his face. so pleased.]

CREEPER IN THE CAFE, WHERE IS SECURITY suchselfishness June 16 2011, 02:22:51 UTC

[ Rhode is just going to go to the back and stab herself in the hand with one of the pastry knives now. It's dull, and it will hurt, but she'll be damned if she wouldn't rather go to the hospital than serve him.

But he's here, and she's the only girl in the front right now, and if she walks off she'll probably get yelled at for it.

Damn it. ]

. . . Welcome home. Master.

[ Apparently all the contempt that couldn't fit into her tone spilled into her eyes, because she is giving him the most intensely icy glare right now. If those fluffy black ears were real, they'd be flat against her skull. As for the tail... Well. That's already puffed up. ]

I KILLED THEM AND ATE THEIR SOULS. WAIT, NO. BUT THEY'RE NOT HERE ANYMORE. screw_disorder June 16 2011, 14:57:07 UTC

Master?

[he is enjoying this wayyyy too much.]

That seems a little drastic.

The tail's a nice touch.

SOB. IT'S A TRAP. suchselfishness June 16 2011, 15:02:17 UTC

It's part of the job.

[ She has a menu, but she's holding it like she might try to take off someone's head with it. ]

Did you come to actually eat something, or are you just here to be a nuisance?

[A little late, but a thread for maids in the back of the store!] wildcardette June 16 2011, 15:59:39 UTC

[During a lull in the visitors, Minako nips out back. Opening her locker, she tugs one of the ears on the headband she's wearing with a chuckle. It's been pretty entertaining so far, this event, and almost all of them appeared to be having fun with it... even if Rei did seem a little uncomfortable with the situation.

She can't help but hope they might have a few more days like this in the future. It's kinda fun to do something a little different to their usual maid outfit combination.]

donttelldaddy June 17 2011, 02:29:10 UTC

[And Lili spots her on her way out of the bathroom, significantly less enthused over the themed day, but pretty good at pretending.]

How are things on your end, Minako?

sorry we don't serve gingers here. B| suchselfishness June 17 2011, 02:48:22 UTC

[ And she's just getting off of her break, coming back to the front of the cafe and smoothing down her fluffy black cat ears as she goes. Not paying as much attention as she should be, grabbing a menu and moseying in the general direction of the door--

Until she sees who's standing there.

This is her slowly turning around on her heel and trying to make an escape halfway across the cafe to the back without being seen. ]

[ OH HELL NO She freezes, resisting the urge to find something to throw at him. She can't just attack customers, no matter how vile they are. Right? Right.

She's not going to let him rile her up. She's not going to let him get her fired. ]

General. [ Turning around, smile ever so sweet. ] What a pleasant surprise. Here for some tea? [ Damn, it's hard not to choke on the words. ]
