COFFEE SHOP MEET & GREET

An old and tired setting, but a fun one! Your character is inside a coffee shop, they could be anywhere in the known (or unknown!) universe(s). Start with a basic trope! RULES • Leave a comment with your character's name and fandom. • RNG for a number between 1-10 to get your scenario/prompt. Mix and match! • Have fun!

SCENARIOS & PROMPTS MIX & MATCH AS MANY AS YOU LIKE! 001 LONER CUSTOMER | Who is that cutie sitting all by themselves? You can't resist saying Hi. 002 DAT BARISTA | Did you look up and suddenly see them over the cinnamon? Are they the reason you come back every single day? Is it a hot newbie screwing up your drink? Tap that. 003 RAINING & POURING | The downpour is horrendous! Quick, into the coffee shop where that strangely attractive person is and oh no they're hot. Don't drip on them, be cool! Be cool! 004 BOOKWORM | Maybe that person isn't your type at all, you're just fascinated by the book they're reading. Strike up a conversation! Make a new friend! 005 SPILLAGES | You knock into the person you tag! Are they covered in hot scalding coffee now? Are you? Is EVERYONE? 006 SUMMER BERRIES | It's the middle of summer and boiling. People are half-dressed and sipping ice-cold fruit shakers, requesting ice to put on their body, sitting on tables in hotpants ... Yes, okay, this is Very Distracting. 007 QUEUE-JUMPING SATAN | You thought you could get away with it at lunch-hour, but you didn't count on them. PS, you're an asshole for trying. 008 MANAGEMENT & SOULCRUSHED | You either hired them and now it's time to ask that babe out or you're a recent employee and the boss has been making eyes at you. 009 LAPTOP HIPSTER | A prompt in and of itself. 010 WILD CARD | Your call.

Vergil | Devil May Cry (AU) | OTA

[He's probably sitting alone at a table with a cup of tea and a book. The book's cover might just be an embossed symbol, rather than a title. He's opted to wear a blue suit instead of the clothes he wears in battle, and he's probably sporting a pair of reading glasses.]

001-ish?

[beholdthedevil]

[Vergil will hear the lightest tap of a walking stick against the floor and a throat politely being cleared. Before him's a dark-haired young man with a white forelock in his hair, maybe a little too well-dressed even by coffee shop standards. There's a steaming mug of black coffee in his hand and nowhere to sit owing to the rush hour.]

I say. Would you mind terribly if I troubled you for a seat?

[thefreedomreign]

[The sound of someone clearing their throat doesn't move him, but he does look up after the person speaks.

There's a brief pause where Vergil looks the stranger over. He's aware enough to sense something about this person that isn't quite on par with someone who is on the up-and-up, but it isn't enough to cause him to deny the seat.

His gaze returns to the book as he replies.]

Help yourself.

[beholdthedevil]

Thank you.

[Hunter nods his gratitude. He makes sure to lean on his walking stick as he sits down, perfectly playing the part of someone with a slight limp on his left leg.]

[It's when he's reaching for the sugar that he recognizes the logo on his table partner's book. He knows it's not the book he thinks it is even if it does share a logo with it. Still: sometimes it's worth playing the fool. There's a sense of... aloofness around this man. A dignified bearing that puts him above every single person in this room except himself, and that's enough to intrigue the Devil.]

Why, I believe I've read your morning's entertainment. Is that Seven Days in Hell by Maxwell Devane?
