[She accepted the manners and sat down. Rather surprisingly, the place seemed completely empty. Even more perplexing, there didn't seem to be a menu or even a shop owner.]
[Just as she wondered where the owner was a gentleman came out from the back. By Makoto's reckoning he was a middle-aged adult. Everything about him shouted casual chic: he had a formal vest over an unbuttoned collared shirt and black khakis. On his face was a pair of half glasses and rough 9 o'clock shadow that Makoto swore must have been kept intentionally untidy.]
Sorry folks, shop's...
[He paused, looking past Lelouch's shoulder and over at Makoto. A soft "well now" and mischievous smirk came across his lips as he pulled out a note pad and pencil from a vest pocket.]
Store hours are usually 8 to 10 and 8 to 2. But for such a sweet thing I guess I can make an exception.
All we got for right now is the house blend and hot water for tea. The muffins are a day old and the soup needs four more hours. Of course, you can always come by later and you can see The Black Cat's "special services." [He gave Makoto a wink.]
Uh... just the house blend, please. And I'll cover what he's having.
[With a soft shrug the man barely turns his head toward Lelouch.] And you, kid?
