[ OPEN ] Farewell My Beautiful Summer

[nolicenseyet]

Characters: Keroro, Eve and anyone else in Metokkori R and the Hikan Cafe
Location: the Hikan Cafe and Metokkori R
Rating: G...unless you bring something higher with you.
Time: August 15th and onwards!
Description: Let's send off summer in style! And by that we mean parfaits.

For a while now, some flyers have been floating around advertising the Hikan Cafe's 'Farewell My Beautiful Summer Extravagenza!'. On it there are the silhouettes of ten parfaits with a large question mark on each. There's one more on the bottom with the words, 'NOMINATE A CHALLENGER!' written on top in bright and bold letters.

Besides that there's a date: coming to the Hikan Cafe on August 15!

When the day of the reveal finally came, the flyer on the Hikan Cafe's door was replaced with a fully coloured poster. At each table you will find a smaller, laminated copy as a special menu.

Let's enjoy the end of the summer, guys!

[Eve, who was passing by, blinked.]

Is it?

[All of their menu items were named after people though...]

[unbreakably]

Well.. [ He pauses for a little, humming out loud to himself as he's thinking of how to put it. ]

It's just gonna sound weird if you say it, right? If you'd be tellin' someone 'bout what you're eating and you'd say "hey, I'm eating this one person", then they're totally gonna get the wrong idea!

[ Accidental cannibalism.. ]

[nolicenseyet]

Oh.

[She actually thinks about it and...yeah, that would be a little weird.]

I hadn't thought about that.

[unbreakably]

[ At least she isn't saying he's weird of thinking of it, that's already helping him a little here.. ]

So you think it sounds weird too like that?

[nolicenseyet]

When you put it like that, yes.

[But she doesn't see that as a reason to change it since only thw customer is going to be accused of being a canibal anyway.]

[unbreakably]

Well-- yeah, if you put it any other way, it doesn't sound all that weird, but.. [ .. he lets out a long sigh. ]

Man, I'm probably just thinkin' too hard about this! Besides, I'm all hungry now after staring for so long..

[nolicenseyet]

[And because Eve has always been blunt:] Probably.

[Eve's tried Keroro's Salesman Smile in the mirror a few times. It always looked weird so she didn't bother with it now.]

What would you like to order?

[unbreakably]

.. Which one do you think's the yummiest?

[ Not like he can really decide just from those names and pictures.. ]

[nolicenseyet]

I like the Neji Parfait.

[Because she is hardly going to say, 'I like Neji' after the conversation they just had.]

[unbreakably]

Huh... so you're a matcha kinda girl, ain't ya?

[ Maybe a generalisation, but that one sure doesn't seem like the most delicious one on the list to him. Then again, he's not a traditional tea fan. ]

[nolicenseyet]

It's interesting.

[Because Eve comes from a psuedo European setting a place where the culture is very Western, so things like rose water for flavouring and macha powder weren't common.]

[unbreakably]

I dunno if I'd call it "interesting".. if I'd go for something interesting on here, then I'd say it's totally the Rock Lee parfait! Just look at those colors, they pop right out!

[ Not that Josuke has a great sense of colors or fashion since.. well, nobody in the Jojo's universe does. ]

[nolicenseyet]

It's interesting to me.

[She doesn't sound offended, just very matter-of-fact, because she wouldn't be Eve if she didn't say it. Then she adds, because Keroro has been teaching her how to talk to customers...]

That one sounds good too.

[unbreakably]

Have you tried it yet? [ Maybe she has a more informed opinion on it.. after all, not everything that looks good immediately tastes too, right? ]

[nolicenseyet]

[She nods.

She's actually gone and taste-tested all of them by now. One of the perks of being the owner.]

It's good.

[unbreakably]

[ Well, he'll trust her judgement! Josuke gives her a thumbs up and a smile. ]

Got it, then I'll make sure to try that one! Thanks for helping me out.

[nolicenseyet]

You're welcome.

Would you like something to drink to go with it?

[unbreakably]

Nah, since it's dessert, I'll be fine without. But if it's good, then I'll make sure to come back for more later!

[ Especially since he does like food. ]
