Hello... you've reached Chihiro Fujisaki. I apologize for missing you, but, um... please leave a message and I will get back to you as soon as I can.

[Lead the way he does, sorry Eevees if he doesn't stop to say goodbye, he's stalled long enough. He'll be sure to give them all the pets when he returns. Instead, he jolts outside, Chihiro still in hand, as he makes his way for the cafe.]

You've been here waaay longer than I have, so have you ever gone to this cafe before, zura?

[After all, he's yet to object. So either Komasan picked a good spot or Chihiro's going somewhere new. The fact that multiple cafes could exist doesn't even cross Komasan's mind.

He...he's just really excited.]

[codeforhope]

Well...that depends on which one we're going to.

[Because yes, as cool as it would be, Chihiro in fact cannot read minds. And he doesn't have anything with him right now that can.]

I don't think I've been to one in Goldenrod that I haven't liked, though.

[monge]

[...oh.]

There's more than one cafe, zura?

[Amazing, do you think the cafe owners get into horrible turf wars? Or maybe they're all friends. Maybe there's some kind of cafe club he isn't aware of, one where owners from across the world gather once a year and talk about coffee.

But enough about his dreams, eventually Komasan leads Chihiro to a small, but fancy place. One he's passed many times before. It's definitely not hidden, or anything obscure, but Komasan is convinced it's a "Big Deal"]

[codeforhope]

Of course! Goldenrod probably has more cafes than most other towns, actually...

[And if Komasan stays in Goldenrod long enough, he may get to visit most- if not all- too.

When Komasan brings them to their destination, Chihiro can't help but be pleasantly surprised. He hasn't had reason to visit cafes this nice before on his own, so it's a little exciting to be able to go to one now. Though, he wonders if Komasan has an idea as to how expensive the place might be...oh well, it probably won't be that bad.]

Oh, how nice...I haven't been to this one before.

[monge]

[Well that deserves a double-take.]

A-Are you serious, I picked a new one, zura?!

[Thank you whatever luck youkai is on his side. Probably Noko, he's gonna say it's Noko. The flower she gave him must of been a good luck charm of some kind. Such a good snake, she'll be getting so many puffs after this.

But until then, Komasan can't control himself and eagerly hurries Chihiro inside so they can experience this new ...experience together. And right away, he can't help but marvel over the interior. It's...that basic cafe look, but maybe today just made it look a pinch more special than it would've if he went alone.]

Monge~!

[codeforhope]

Mhm!

[Komasan's eagerness is infectious. Even though the cafe really isn't too different from the standard, it's impressive all the same. Chihiro adjusts his bag on his shoulder as they enter, staying close by Komasan's side as one of the waiters leads them to an empty table.]

A lot of these cafes have certain Pokemon that they base their dishes on. I wonder which ones this one has...
