        12am to 11:59pm is morning.
        12pm to 5:59pm is afternoon.
        6pm-11:59pm is night.

        It is currently: Night
        The weather is: Cold

        We run on PST time.
        You can find the current time here in case I haven't updated the time of day.

        All characters must comply with the time. This is to make the plot a little more orderly and timely. Days were dragging on too long.

              ❥ Anyone is welcome~ I'd love to see a bunch of strange characters in my café. This includes walk-ins.
              ❥ I would like this café to be semi-literate at the very least. Five sentences minimum. I would prefer more.
              ❥ I could care less if you have a post format or not. If you have one, great! I just hope it's not a page stretcher.
              ❥ Fighting is welcome if you want it... Just do it in the street outside the café! No wrecking my stuff, you hear? Just don't go around killing everyone.
              ❥Everything else should be pretty obvious, just use your best judgement
              ❥OOC is fine, but please use ((OOC here)) or [[OOC here]] format.
              ❥You can use whatever you like as a ref pic. I'm using my avi as one, feel free to too.
              ❥You MUST ring your bell to get an employee's attention. I will hand them out as you enter. I mean I guess you could yell but that doesn't seem polite.

                          your name: Clochette (or Clo)
                          gender: female
                          age: 22
                          species: human (assumed though she does have those pointy ears...)
                          tell a little story: Clochette is a little eccentric, but her bubbly personality makes up for it. While she isn't that great of a chef (in her opinion), she is very personable and genuinely cares for people. She can be very motherly towards the younger employees and customers, occasionally even sitting down with the customers and helping them them with personal problems. Many people mistake her for being younger, because of her rather odd appearance. She is much more complex than she gives off, feeling safer keeping to herself. She has a business personality and a "casual" personality, which many people seem to consider confusing. When not in the cafe or after hours, her true personality appear. Many of her teenage years were spent in France, where she created more than a few scandals.

                          Clo inherited the Blue Bell from the former owner, who died after taking care of her since childhood. Originally the Blue Bell was a workshop in which her caretaker made various things, including bells. He taught her to craft bells, and she still wears the first two she made in her hair. Clochette converted the workshop into a café, as it had been a long time dream of hers to own a place where people would feel safe. Her childhood is a large blank in her mind, but she remembers the aching feeling of wanting solace sometimes.

                          Clo has the ability to use magic, using bells and music as a medium. Her caretaker taught her from a young age to use this type of magic and told her she had the natural ability to control such magic.
                          any details you want us to know: She sings in her sleep, has very agile hands, still makes bells for customers, dresses VERY eccentrically, messes with her hair bells when upset.

                          your name: Trisandra (or Tris)

                          age: 24
                          species: Human
                          tell a little story:Tris is extremely outspoken, dramatic and generally always active... In her head. She's pretty affable, if you catch her when she's awake. She has a tendency to flirt with people, of both genders, she doesn't know losing interest in the act completely once she has finally gotten to know them. The only exception to this is Clochette, since the reactions to her advances are continuously amazing.

                          Tris recently finished her schooling, though she never actually tells anyone what she studied, and decided to move out of her former home. She ran across the cafe while looking for a place to eat and heard about the apartment openings. After getting to know the owner and taking in the atmosphere, she decided it would be a perfect fit. She's a jack of all trades, never actually taking a specific job but filling in when needed.
                          any details you want us to know: She is never seen anywhere without her cat, rubs her right eye with the palm of her hand when she feels nervous, she feels that sleeping should be an Olympic sport, and she chose room oo4 because some people sing in their sleep.

                          species:Human
                          tell a little story:Haruka comes from a very, very wealthy family, and it's obvious in her appearance and mannerisms. She is polite, soft-spoken, elegant, and graceful. Most of all, she is absolutely adorable; not just in personality, but in looks. She was born with a strange condition that causes her to remain ten years old in appearance and voice for the rest of her life. She was schooled by the finest tutors at home, and lavished with anything and everything she desired. Despite this, however, her spoiledness does not show through in her personality and she is really very kind and sweet.
                          any details you want us to know:All she ever eats is sweets, and she loves all things cute, fluffy, and frilly.

                          species: fire elemental
                          tell a little story:
                          Runio used to be a flame. Literally.

                          He was created by ancient magic by a malicious wizard that planned to use his power over fire to take over a kingdom. Runio killed the man on accident with because he couldn't control his powers as a newborn, and returned to the realm designated for ethereal beings. Over the years he was summoned, forced to do many things he disliked until his master died. Sometime during the 1700s, a young magician freed him due to a mistake in his summoning circle. Runio escaped, using his magic to assume his human form and began his century long run from more than a few magic wielders, hiding behind his flamboyant "disguise". He began a career as a performing fire acrobat, becoming quite the famous entertainer. He wandered around for many years, performing for money and board. In more recent times, he joined the circus and continues his performances there.

                          He is the type of person that is almost always in a positive mood. Though he has three hundred years under his belt, he still acts childish at times. Runio is very inquisitive, and tends to study humans when they're not looking. Playing with fire is one of his favorite hobbies. He loves to use his fire to create elaborate images like a leaping deer or a fluttering butterfly. The only thing Runio hates is large bodies of water, though even showers tend to rattle him.
                          any details you want us to know: The one human behavior he is good at is flirting. He also enjoys dancing and playing the fiddle. Shiny things amuse him. Walks around barefoot.

Always having an eye for traveling, she set her sights on touring the world, one day at a time. At current, after many conversation with her family, they let her go. At current it brought her here and she can't simply live on will alone. She'll need a job and being friendly and sweet, Merida would do well to greet customers as they came in.

She has a sharp tongue and isn't afraid to be brutally honest, which is why she doesn't hold onto friends often. She definitely is not a morning person. If by chance she is up before noon, you'll see her with at least three cups of coffee. Even though she has cat ears, it's all fake. Just a pair of ears and a tail made of artificial fur.

Tris opened her eyes and grinned, watching her friend flit around before finally making her way outside. She guessed that she could get off her a** and do as she was told. She may not actually work here or get paid, she reasoned, she would do just about anything for Clochette. Especially after all the work that her friend had done to get this place open and running. Moving behind the cashier's counter she stood and waited patiently for the first customer to walk through the door.

Tris slowly opened an eye, sliding out of her bed and onto her feet. It was time to wake she supposed. Sleepily blinking as she looked around her room, she turned back to bed at the protests of her little kitten Valkyrie, who had been disturbed but her waking movements.

"Awww," she said as she Reached over to scratch the feline behind the ears, generally doting on it to appease it's spoiled temper. "Did I disturbed my baby? Mommy's sorry!"

After gently coaxing it off the bed she set about fixing the sheets before making her way to her closet to pick out today's outfit. After picking out something suitable she made her way to the shower. She was a bit hungry and she wouldn't mind one of Clo's Blue Bell's either.

"Tris! Hurry up in there!" Clochette banged on the door, upset that her friend was taking so long in the shower. Some people needed to use it too, especially when their neon blue hair was less than perfect after a night of tossing and turning. So few customers had shown up yesterday, but that was to be expected. It was only the first day, and like the airhead she was, she had forgotten to hang posters around town like she had planned. During the evening the previous day, she had forced Tris outside to do the forgotten task for her. Now her friend was paying her back by taking up all the hot water...

"Tris, you get your butt out here right now or I'm holding Valkyrie hostage in exchange for hot water!" The little cat meowed in confirmation then licked it's paw. Leave it to a cat to be relaxed about a hostage situation. Clochette sighed, giving up for the moment when she heard no response, going instead to spot clean the cafe's various windows to busy herself.

Tris laughed silently, Clochette would do many things for her share of hot water but actually harming Valkyrie wasn't one of them, and all three beings involved knew this very well. Instead, she took her time, making sure to wash extra thoroughly with the shampoo and conditioner.

When she was done, she stepped out of the shower sporting an evil grin as she left the hot water running long enough to dry herself off.. Never mind that no one else could see it. She could, and that was enough. After she dressed and let herself out of the bathroom, she paused to pick up her kitten, nuzzling it's face.

"Is my baby okay," she quizzed the kitten as she made her way to the cafe and to Clo. "Did the mean bell lady take you hostage again?"

"I know you kept the water running on purpose." Clochette hurled quite an angry look at Tris, her hands on her hips. Lecture time would be later, as the cafe was open and she didn't want a customer barging in on a full blown ranting Clo. She doubted they would come back if they saw a sight like that. Instead she took to eating a fresh pastry, taking bites off it like a mouse. "And don't call me a bell lady."
