[Open Mingle] Entry 003

Who: Kazuma Asogi, Soldier: 76, Susato Mikotoba and anyone else.
Which: Open mingle
Where: The Wild Harvest, located on the ground floor of Kazuma's home.
What: Soft opening for a small pub called the Wild Harvest.




A new pub has opened in Reverein, though the news is only being spread through word of mouth, or if people just happen by the place this month. Kazuma isn't exactly new to managing a pub, but he wanted to be sure he does it right this time. So he's keeping things small and simple, while the crew work out any issues that may come up during the month.

The place already has a much more welcoming feel to it compared to the Hydeout, like a quaint little neighborhood pub. Right next to the pub was a garden, part of it growing into the pub itself. There's a herb station setup if people want grab something else to add to their dishes, though at the moment, the selection is limited until they can grow more plants. There are garnish and spice noodle dragons also roaming about, and they will occasionally add a little extra to a customer's food or drink.

The menu itself is moderately simple, listing various eastern and western style street food dishes. There is also a note that reads: Can request something to be cooked off menu, as long as there are ingredients.

A sign has been put up near the entrance, listing the seasonal specials for the month.


Hot Chocolate (Alchoholic and Non)
Eggnog (Alchoholic and Non)
Cinnamon Apple Spice Tea
Meat Stew.
Roast Fowl.

Note: Meat will vary depending on what's available for the day.


Another can be found at the bar, this one being a "help wanted" sign. While Kazuma is satisfied having a crew he can trust, he could probably do with a full time bartender and bouncer. There are only three staffed at this pub right now. Kazuma is handling the front the best he can. He's not as conversive as his Hyde counterpart, but he'll try since he'll be the one most people will see. Occasionally 76 can be seen at the bar handling drinks, otherwise he'll be preparing the food along with Susato in the kitchen. A few times she'll peek out from the back to help clear tables, talking to the others during down time as she adjust to working a restaurant.

[This is basically an open mingle log for people to use the pub setting for whatever they like! Kazuma, Susato and/or 76 may also tag in, unless specified. Pub and garden area are open to the public.]

[ A Japanese restaurant! Finally! Ignore the fact that Ferris doesn't really know what that entails, nor does she know that technically her favourite food is Japanese either-- what brings her the most relief is that this is somewhere run by people who appeared here much the same as she did.

The chances are the food won't screw her around here, no matter what it happens to be...

But with all that said, she's not completely sure what to think when she enters, though she catches sight of Susato almost immediately as she rushes around. But then... Ferris sees the sword and is drawn to it almost immediately... ]

[ The food will most definitely not screw her around, even if they haven't quite added dango to their menu. She has been working on perfecting the roast fowl, and by "working on" she means she made it for Christmas dinner last week and it seems to have been a smash hit, so she resolves to repeat the process.

...

When she turns, she catches sight of the blonde hair immediately. Susato does recall seeing her skill with a sword not long ago. ]


Hello, Ferris. Do you like it? [ Susato glances briefly at the Karuma look alike. ] It is only a replica, but I hoped it would bring a bit of Japanese spirit to the place.

That's where you're from, correct? Are swords such as these commonplace there?

[ An odd blade, slightly curved. Ferris hasn't seen one quite like it. In Roland, they have the standard straight sword, whether it be one or two handed. Something like this might be a hero relic, perhaps, if it existed there. ]

[ Susato will of course nod. She still remembers, however brief the moment, when she thought Ferris was Japanese herself. ]

They are called katana, swords wielded by mighty samurai warriors. This particular one was fashioned after the Karuma, which has been a part of the Asogi family for generations.

[ Not that that should mean anything to Ferris. Oops. ]

He owns the place, you see. This is actually part of his home.

[ While a sword passing through a family does not feel familiar to her, the idea of a family doing so is not particularly outlandish. After all, is she herself not part of a family of swordsmen? A tradition passed down from parents to child? (Though the manner in which this was done with the Erises was not particularly... good.)

A sword passed down from generation to generation sounds far more pleasant. ]


I see.

[ So borrowing the sword is probably not a great idea, even if it is a replica; no matter, Ferris has her own, after all. ]

A generous man to share his home like this, all for the sake of a restaurant.

[ ...She is quiet and thoughtful, as if considering how Ferris's perceptions matched up to the real thing. "It's something to do," he had said. "...There isn't exactly a high demand for lawyers."

...... ]


It was convenient... I think. [ Not to knock Kazuma's efforts, just speaking truth. ] It took a lot of cleaning to open around the new year like he wanted, but it's all worked out rather perfectly. There is even a garden where we grow our ingredients.
