"One large vanilla latte for Eddie!"
Corwin Wyatt looked up from his laptop, having stopped typing in the middle of a sentence. His brow creased slightly in thought as he tried to recall what pseudonym he had decided with that day. That's how he functioned at Bellato cafe anyway. Every time he went, he ordered under a different name, though occasionally the barista on duty would call out to "Beanie" and he'd know it'd be him. His pseudonyms were on an alphabetical rotation after all, the very thing that made it all more complicated than it had to be, but alas, Corwin considered himself a complicated man. Still...was E the letter in rotation that day? Ah ******** it, it had to be his latte. Getting up to his feet and adjusting the black beanie on his head, the violet-haired man slowly made his way over towards the counter and grinned. "Yossu! he exclaimed as he grabbed the mug that the young woman with the nice smile held out to him. "Ehm...did you remember-"
"One pump of pumpkin spice...our little secret," The barista whispered softly with a cheeky grin as she pressed a finger to her lips indicating the secret. The little exchange caused Corwin to snort back a laugh before shooting the girl a knowing glance. "Ohohoho....you're getting an awesome tip the next time I bring cash." "I look forward to it~!" she called out before turning on her heel and getting back to her other orders. He carefully blew at the hot mug as he made his way back to his laptop and sat down. "What BS was I writing again...?" he asked himself as he glanced over the document he had open, only to roll his eyes before taking a sip of his latte. Perfection.
Cominomicon, or whatever the nerds called it. For whatever reason, he was honored every year with the duty of doing the final write up for the convention that had just concluded. Maybe he was just really good a faking up excitement over the topic. Truth be told, when he was at the event photographing the freak show, he couldn't help but wish he was the journalist that had been in charge of covering the murder of the gang leader that had been shot up in the alleyway. Now that was something worth covering, a possible murderer running around the city, or an unfortunate accident? Regardless, no doubt the mayor would be happy with one less crime lord alive in Raethia. He took another sip and set down his mug before beginning to furiously type away once more.
The biggest shocker to shake the very foundation of Cominomicon this year was the winner of the Cosplay contest. Seriously, who gives a s**t? Cosplayer S. Wolf got second place this year after defending his title for the last three years, losing to his sister and fellow cosplaying companion, Helheim. Least she made a ******** hot Saber. When asked for a comment regarding his loss, S. Wolf replied "I don't consider this a loss at all. My sister deserved to shine this year." Cry me a river. Despite not winning over all best cosplay, S. Wolf, he did win the prize for best technique for the detail he applied to the construction of Helheim's costume.
"Blah. Blah. Blah. Thank god I'm ******** done," Corwin sighed as he saved the document onto his flashdrive before pocketing the device in his pocket and slamming his laptop closed. Within a few minutes, the journalist had finished his latte, packed up his things and was out the door to head back to the office. No sooner had he entered the lobby did one of the receptionists come scrambling over towards him.
"M-miss Theodora asked for you...." The woman managed to nervously get out before hurrying out of the building.
"Have a good lunch, Christine," Corwin yawned as he headed towards the elevator, which he caught just in time. "Lucky~!" he grinned as the doors closed behind him. Up and up he went to his floor, where the journalist in questioned meandered to his little cubicle decorated with little pictures of him and Monstro, his beloved Koi fish. Setting his messenger bag down on his chair, he stretched before wandering over towards the throne room, ahem, the office, of his most lovely boss. Upon entering the office, his signature grin remained plastered on his face before he made the sweeping gesture of bowing lowly to Theodora as she remained seated at her desk. Keeping his head low, he couldn't help but chuckle.
"Oh Mistress mine, my will is thine~" Corwin purred before looking up to face her, soon straightening up and shoving his hands in his pockets. "You rang~?" he chuckled as he fished out his flash drive from his pocket and chucked it onto her desk. "There's that piece you wanted on the Cominomicon. Stop making me write that bullshit."
