video; backdated to the 25th!

[The video starts, and it's a face that might be familiar to some but not so familiar to others. It's a super ordinary, super smiley face, and Aunt Cass as she is known has attached her phone to a tripod for this recording. It's a good thing; considering how excited she is, looking like she's just barely holding herself back from bouncing in place, the recording would've had enough shaky-cam to give the first Hungry Games movie a run for its money.]

So!

[But her excitement could only be contained for so long. Her hands make a nice, clear sound as she claps them together.]

Hi, guys! My name is Cass, for those of you who don't know me, and for those of you who didn't know about this, I used to run a coffee shop back home. That is, in San Fransokyo, which is kind of like San Francisco but also like Tokyo. Funny how that works, right? Anyway. [She reels herself back in before she goes on too much of a tangent, bringing her small body up to its fullest height and smiling even wider than before, if possible.]

I'm happy to announce today that at the beginning of next month, on October 2nd, my nephews and I will be opening up the second branch of the Lucky Cat Café here in Heropa! We'll be on the corner of [she names a couple streets here] ready to serve you hot coffee, pastries, and Japanese food if that's more to your taste. Come stop by!

And also... [Here, she chills out a little and relaxes, hands clasped in front.] I used to run the place by myself since our house was right above it, but this time, I'm looking to ask you guys for some help. So if you have any experience or interest in working at a coffee shop, let me know.

I think I understand. I was really fond of my customers before so I thought it wouldn't be the same here -- and it won't be! But I couldn't help but miss it.

Touka... that's a lovely name you've got there, how do you write it? I'll be happy to work with you, if you want to come in sometime this week and take a look around. You can show me what you know, and what days you're available.

[It takes her a second to realize what Cass means, since she's so used to the ID comms displaying the names.]

Oh! Thank you...I can text it to you with the days I'm open. [She's got another job right now, but she'd honestly rather be working full-time at a cafe. A text is sent over, signed with her name written out "霧嶋 董香"]

Could you send me the address too? I'll come by whenever you've got time.

[lasthugs]

Of course.

[The address is sent over quickly, but Cass' eyes on the screen are reading Touka's name. Just as she thought, it's pretty.]

Just as I thought, it's lovely. And I feel even more at ease that you'll be working with me. [She grins.] I'm going to be there all week, so just send me a text when you're on the way and I'll be free.

[hunterrabbit]

Thank you. [Returning the grin.

Touka's already feeling pretty optimistic about this. At least she knows her way around coffee. Depending on what food they have at the cafe- that might take a bit of getting used to...back home, they weren't expecting her to be a good cook right off the bat.

But she's not too worried- she likes Cass from the little they've talked already.]

I'm looking forward to it.
