WHO: Akira and others!
WHERE: ALL OVER THE HOTEL
WHEN: late October, like a day or two after the Great Espresso Heist of 2023 (TM)
WHAT: the search for a cafe!
WARNINGS: WARNING: RNG HOTEL FLOORS AHEAD

[by now, everyone is probably aware of the broken espresso machine, which has yet to be replaced. for most people, this probably isn't an issue!1 but for Akira, Mr. Coffee-is-my-Blood. . .]

[. . . this morning, he can be found sprawled out next to the elevators on a random floor, face planted into the carpet and arms and legs sprawled akimbo at his sides. he is muttering something to himself]

. . . how hard is it. . . to find. . . a S████████ . . . in a hotel that has more floors than any building needs. . .

[LIGHT WHINING]

[anyway, he's being dramatic. help a guy out? maybe??? or make fun of his suffering? it is up to you!]

((LET US DO AN RNG FLOOR POST!!! comment and go on an adventure with Akira, I'll RNG which floor we go to for funsies! I may even make some up as I go, idk, I'm feelin' spicy. FEEL FREE ALSO TO THREADJUMP AND TAG EACH OTHER FOR MORE RNG FLOOR ADVENTURES, I ENCOURAGE IT!!))

[hell yeah rng adventures!!]

[. . . anyway. in response to her question, he lifts a hand to give her a thumbs up. he is not THAT far gone]

If by "medical assistance" you mean. . . you have a coffee IV.

[he's so stupid]

[airdnd]

[ Oh. Okay. He's not bleeding out or anything. But still... she tilts her head. ]

Coffee... ivy...?

[survivaltricks]

[. . . ah. he pushes himself upright, giving his head a small shake]

Nothing important. I'm not injured or sick, though. Just. . . deprived.

[airdnd]

Deprived... Oh.

[ The most sympathetic look. ]

The espresso, right? Minato mentioned that you were taking it quite hard. We ought to get you to one of the cafes.

[survivaltricks]

I'm not taking it-- [. . . okay, yes, he's taking it. . . a little hard. but nevermind that!]

I've been trying to get to one for the past hour, but the elevator keeps glitching out on me and sending me to the wrong floor.

[airdnd]

...Come to think of it, are there even stairs here...?

[ Sumina would do it. She would climb like 80 flights of stairs to get to a cafe with espresso.

But that's probably not the best idea, because she'd probably die around the 14th flight. ]

Maybe not. We could try our luck together, then. Perhaps we'll find a floor with a different sort of caffeinated beverage being served?

[survivaltricks]

. . . there has to be. Right?

[RIGHT??? that is a very uncertain sounding response]

And even if it's caffeinated, it's not the same if it isn't coffee.

[airdnd]

Haha. I agree. Tea can only get you so far...

[ offering him a hand to get up to his feet. ]

Then, let's make our way, shall we?

[survivaltricks]

[takes that hand, hoisting himself to his feet]

It'll be an adventure.

[hopefully a fruitful one?]

[airdnd]

I'm really not an adventurous sort of person, but - an adventure to find coffee is one that I think even a humble innkeeper like myself can manage!

[ away on the elevator they go!! ]
