I like sweet desserts with tea too.

Isn't it normal? It makes a perfect balance. Everyone's got different tastes though.

[ascatic]

They do. It certainly makes my day when someone finds their favorite pairing of tea and snack. Maybe they do not say it with their mouths, but in the way they straighten up in their seat or start to eat a little faster.

Is there a specific dessert you like?

[reaquila]

I like having cookies and chocolate with tea.

You keep them at your place, right? Who wouldn't want to drink tea with a good snack??

[ascatic]

I do. But I also like catering to those who may come, and those who continue to come.

I know I may not be able to provide what everyone likes, though it certainly makes me happy just trying.

[reaquila]

I'm sure people come to your place because you care so much.

That's a respectable attitude to have!

[ascatic]

I do care.

If anything, recent experiences have taught me that it now means more to care and to ensure the well-being of all customers.

Because, who knows if they will discover old memories as well?

[reaquila]

Yeah...memories. I've heard about people recovering them by one way or another.

You recall anything important yet?

[ascatic]

Yes.

But it is unclear to what it means.

I can recall the feeling of fire all over my body. Not burning me alive, but the sensation of intense heat.

It may have consumed me. Or possibly, I stood just outside of certain death. I do not know.

And you?

[reaquila]

That sounds serious. You'll learn the truth soon, hopefully.

And for myself? Well, I don't know. I have one vivid memory of being attacked by a monster.

Apparently I was skilled enough to fight back.

[ascatic]

It seems that those who have some who are aware of having previous lives are also capable fighters.

I wonder if that is by design?

I hope that I can stay by the side and avoid violence if possible, if it comes to it.

[reaquila]

You don't like fighting?

I suppose not everyone's into that sort of thing. Maybe we can get through this without punching someone in the face.

[ascatic]

No. Do you?

If conversation cannot settle differences, it is better to ignore the situation than do anything that may provoke further consequences. That is what I believe.

[reaquila]

That's some strong belief.

I enjoy fighting a little. Sometimes you have to take a risk and face things head on!

[ascatic]

I feel as though I could find someone to do that for me.

I have taken enough risks in my lifetime.

But... I suppose youth has its advantages. Does it not?

[reaquila]

I guess so. I haven't seen that much action yet!!

If you take too many risks then you won't want to do it anymore.

[ascatic]

Though life has not always been kind, it has been enough to keep on going.

Hence why I would like to not take many risks with the life that I have left.

Who knows what tomorrow may bring, after all.

[reaquila]

You're starting to sound more and more like an old man.

Just how old are you anyways?

[ascatic]

37.

That is old, you know.

[reaquila]

You could be my grandpa!!

Are you ready for retirement yet?

[ascatic]

I...

I do not know how to feel about that question. I am far from retirement. I may work until I die.

[reaquila]

That would be...sad. Though, I guess taking a break for too long would be boring.

Do you like the excitement you get from work?

[ascatic]

I am always excited by the premise of meeting new people. Finding out what they like to drink, eat, what they do throughout their day...

Perhaps I would become bored if I never encountered another person.

In a small way, I am glad this application showed up on my phone.

[reaquila]

Seriously? That's one thing I can't agree with, old man. I tried so hard to get rid of it the other day.

If you're content in some ways then that's what matters, I guess.

[ascatic]

[ ah... will he be forever labeled as 'old man'???



almost a wish come true, tbh ]

I tried a few times, but I gave up pretty quickly. My employees could not help me either... or would not, apparently.

I am content as long as nothing ruins my daily routine. That is all. Though more and more frequently, there have been some small disruptions.

[reaquila]

[Yes, he's old man forever now.]

Oh yeah. They wouldn't help with this. Talk about useless.

I wouldn't get too comfy if I were you.

[ascatic]

[ ugh let old man live ]

Some of them also have it, so I suppose I am lucky to have ones that are... more acquainted with what I am experiencing.

And I will try not to, but like an old cat, I would like to be comfortable if I can.

[reaquila]

Maybe I'll come visit you so I know you aren't going senile.

Is your shop open now?

[ascatic]

Mmm. Yes.



Perhaps I should be doing work.

[reaquila]

See you around then.

Don't forget to take breaks sometimes.
