[OPEN] this is where the limelight shines

[autocratic]

Date & Time: 4/12-4/14
Location: Snow's NORA cafe!
Characters: Saber & any/all staff and customers!
Summary: As Saber has self-appointed become an overseer for her Master's cafe, little red has decided to partake in a variety of things to make it prosper.
Warnings: Standard PG-13 due to Seiba the Lewd.



A

[ So what's Saber's first order of business? By taking customers' orders, of course! After slipping into a getup similar to this (except red and with some modification), she can be seen walking here and there taking orders... though it'll be become quickly obvious that she has no proper idea of what a waitress should actually be like. She points out some customers' choice in food, how they eat, how they should be eating, demands their opinions of the cafe... and the customers might actually be listening or doing what she's saying or hoping for forgiveness.

Must be that Charisma thanks to her cheater skill from Imperial Privilege. Customer or staff memeber, the charisma can be felt! Either that or overwhelming energy from someone only standing 4'9". ]

B

[ There's a little stage in the cafe! And since stages are practically a catcall for her, Saber is, of course, on the stage. Back in her usual red ballroom dress, Saber twirls and "exercises her vocal chords" by trying out a few tunes... Her singing is so-so, despite her boasting.

Though, Saber's quick to notice she's most likely not getting any applause. Cranking up Imperial Privilege, she belts out new tunes with better proficiency. Yup. ]

C

[ Taking a break from all that waitressing and singing, Saber can be found at the bar ordering glasses of red wine. Even though Snow has told her that if she entertains other people, stuff would be for free, Saber's still handing down marques for the drinks. Hell, she just might be feeling generous today as she'll give some marques to anyone who happens to come and give a pleasant chat with her. Her Emperor's Prerogative skill has her find random loot around Exsilium that she keeps selling back for extra marques.

Why? Because Nasuverse. ]

D

[ For those in or outside the cafe, they might be treated to a rare sight on these few days. With drinks and an easy atmosphere, this'll attract some types of customers, and those customers might start to take advantage of things and get a little unruly. Despite standing at a height that doesn't afford her the luxury of looking like a proper adult woman, Saber can be seen tossing out hapless, rude customers back onto the streets with ease. Then subsequently threatening such characters with more violence if they don't leave the premises quickly enough, or... greeting passerby to come into the store for good ol' times with a pleasant smile and wave before walking back in as if nothing else happened.

Cafes need bouncers too, you know. ]

Perhaps, but when you knock them out of their comfort zone, it's harder to get them to do things, I find.

Much easier to just shift their comfort zone, but that takes time.

[autocratic]

"Perhaps"? And who are you, demon, to doubt an experience I've held for one lifetime, when you see the effect with your own eyes?

[have_hat_will_travel]

H-hang on a second! I'm saying that I am impressed with what you're able to do!

I couldn't pull half of that on pure force of personality.

[autocratic]

Hmph. Of course not. You're that sort of creature, after all. Your method of persuasion comes in more slithering tunes.

[have_hat_will_travel]

Hey, hey. Just because I'm good at one trick doesn't mean I don't know others.

[autocratic]

And what are these implied "other skills" that you have, hm? Perhaps you might elevate yourself in my eyes if these skills aren't reliant upon your being a demon.

[have_hat_will_travel]

Bardic magic is pure arcane. No reliance on my racial abilities other than a natural synergy with my Charisma score.

[autocratic]

H'oh, so you can persuade others with the acts of a jester! Hah! That does warrant some better assessment of your character!

[have_hat_will_travel]

Or, you know, play music that makes my allies' weapons burn with pure fire energy that makes their every hit hurt two to three times as bad.

That's always fun.

[autocratic]

Pah. I'm sure that will be useful to those who cannot do the act themselves - provided they need such in the first place.

[ So she'll give a single clap. ]
