He is heading to the cafe thinking of all that has has happened this mouth. He has healed two members of the syndicate, had a panic attack in front of another. Not to mention he has befriended a pair of twins with one being piglin. The other being 3 different people and hybrids.
He take's a breath out looking over at the cafe he is now standing in front of. He walks in smiling at the afternoon barista. They take off their apron when they see him.
"Time to switch, Big man!" He jokes putting on his apron.
"You got it easy. The only people that would come here at night are like college students and nocturnal hybrids." The barista jokes.
"Some times I serve a rich brunette with a coffee addiction." He adds, seeing the afternoon bristles eyes light up with wonder.
"No way someone rich would come here, your joking!" The barista exclaims.
"Yah and they have a piglin brother that wears a crap ton of gold jewelry, and there's this other person that calls themselves Mexican Dream who always cosplaying as Dream, but the mask is the Mexican flag with Dreams smiley face on it!" He tells waving his hands around trying to be more descriptive.
"I knew you had some weird people coming in because you work the night shift, but that is just insane! The barista laughs heading to the door. Well I have to go now so bye!" With that the barista leaves.
He goes grabbing the cleaning supplies starting to clean everything off. It's insane how dirty the afternoon barista leaves the place sometimes, but then again they doesn't have as much time to clean as he does.
It's calming to just clean the cafe since nothing bad seems to ever happen while he's in the safety of it's walls. His life has gotten flipped on it's head in a month and yet when he's in the cafe he feels like nothing has changed.
He lets himself get lost in his routine until he hears the bell chime. He jumps a bit spinning around
"Welcome to Niki's cafe and bakery! How may I help you!" He chirps out, looking at who has walked in.
To his surprise he sees Techno standing there.
"I'll take a black coffee." The man dead pans while also making it seem like he's making fun of him.
"Of coarse the man built like a bolder with bubble gum pink hair would want a black coffee, you wanker." He huffs, turning to make the piglin man their coffee.
Techno chuffs from behind him. He gets done with the coffee and sets it out on the counter.
"Most bitter coffee in the cafe for the pig man!" He mocks, knowing piglin's and pig men are two different beings.
"Those are two completely different things." Techno deadpans.
"Both are pigs from hell!" He chirps out.
Techno honks at him rolling their eyes.
"Don't honk at me! I don't understand you when you do that!" He pouts, waving his hands in the air.
"Really couldn't of guessed that one, runt." Techno humors, grabbing their coffee.
"I'm not a kid!" He yells, flinging himself himself over the counter at the piglin.
To his surprise the man grabs him by the shirt. Stopping his attack.
"Hey, let me go you prick!" He screeches, clawing at Techno's arm like prey trying to escape a predator that already has it in it's clutches.
"Your going to attack me again as soon as I let you go aren't you?" Techno questions, amused at his pitiful attempt at trying to escape.
"Noooooo." He lies.
Techno lets out a exasperated sigh, lifting his legs.
"Hey, what the fuck! Let me go, you bitch!" He yells, trying to squirm out of Technos grasp.
He suddenly feels weightless. Realizing Techno just chunked him he covers his neck praying to XD it doesn't break. He feels his back hit something soft recognizing it as one of the seats of the the booths.
He sits up seeing Techno walking over. He thinks he can see concern in Technos eyes if he looks hard enough, but he brushes it off.
Techno takes a seat next to him, pulling a book out of no where.The book has a weird design on it.
"What the hell is that book about to look so weird?" He questions, with a tilt of his head.
Techno opens the book. "Greek mythological. I can read some of the stories for you." Techno humors him.
"Really!" He gasps, excitement lining his voice.
"Runt". Techno mutters.
"Stop calling me that you over sized pig!" He screeches.
Techno rolls their eyes, opening the book. Flipping to a story.
"Theseus was a king-."
The sands of time trickle by fast as he listens to Techno read story after story.
He was amazed at how Icarus flew with wax wings and how Theseus was betrayed by his own people. He doesn't really remember when he started to feel safe around people but here he is leaning on Techno's shoulder as he reads the story of Achilles.
Suddenly he hears his alarm going off. Techno stops his reading to give him a questioning look. He stopes leaning on Techno stretching out his arms.
"Sorry Big man but it's time for me to close the cafe." He admits.
Techno let's out a disappointed chuff before getting out of the booth allowing him to get out. He gets out of the booth as well going and grabbing the cleaning supplies to go clean off the one machine he used all shift.
"Guess- Techno walks to him putting their hand on his head- I'll be off." Techno says, rubbing his head.
"What you doing? Think my hair is made of gold?" He jokes, laughing when Techno impulsively pulls his hand away when he gets called out.
"Bye." Techno says, hastily leaving.
He wipes down the coffee machine before leaving himself. He does his usual. Putting his hood up and putting on his mask, but since he has nothing to do today he puts in his headphones.
Connecting them to his phone. He goes onto YouTube putting on a Lovejoy playlist. He puts his headphones into his hoodie's pocket so he doesn't have to carry it.
"Eeeeeeeeeeeee! Attention please! This is boring, do something interesting like blowing up the city or something! Come on we want more content!" The voices scream, seemingly bored by his normal walk.
"Oh shut, I have a day to relax from the fast pace of this month making my life turn on it's head! Let me have this" He complains, smacking his head to try to get the voices to go away.
"But the fast pace is so short for use Demi-gods!" The voices retort.
"Nice to finally know what y'all are." He remarks.
"Be not afraid!" The voices joke. "Very funny." He deadpans, walking down the stairs of the tube line.
"We know, our humor can't be beat!" The voices brag.
"The only peoples humor y'all beat is Mexican Dream and Dream himself." He remarks.
"Of course we have better humor. Dream's humor is child abused which is entertaining, but we don't find it funny! Some of use do." The voices spout, starting a civil war between themselves.
He sighs.
"What has my life become." He states seeing the tube to Logninshire roll in he walks over.
He waits for everyone to get off. After that he gets on the train with a civil war being fought in his head.
