[ a young woman's voice comes on the Vine. she does not sound pleased. in fact, 'furious' might be a more appropriate way to describe it. ]

What is the meaning of this?! I demand an explanation! Right now! [ there is a loud, sharp CRACK!, the sound of leather hitting hard against the ground. ]

Any foolish answers will be met with a whipping! I don't want to waste my time hearing nonsense explanations!

[ she ends this with another CRACK!, to emphasize her point. ]

[A lot of rustle is heard before a Vine is tugged close up to a sign]



[It pulls back to reveal Alpha, smiling widely and her shop behind her.]

It's done! Cafe Alpha is finished! Now, all I was able to find was tea, but I found a few coffee packages so I'll definitely save those for special occasions until I figure out how to get more. In the mean time, I found some tea leaves and will be growing my own plants in the back to make tea with.

[See this? She is proud. Proud of herself.]

So! Now that the storm is over, anyone want a nice hot cup of tea?



[OOC: Christmas kind of took over, so I waited until the event was over to post again. ^^;; This is forwarded to tomorrow morning as I'll be a little busy tomorrow. Mods, I hope this is okay! If not, let me know. :)]

[It was like humanity never existed in this place. Well, until now that was. Sure, there were houses and things that helped the other humans here, but Alpha got the sense that they were not part of this place. That it all simple existed now that they were here. However, there were certain things about this place that certainly reminded her of her own home.

The life here. It was just like home. This place was doing it own thing to ensure humanity was remembered and cherished. At least, that’s what she felt like it was doing. Even the animals helped take care of them. It was amazing! And the Vines!

Alpha run to one, smiling widely as it moves to her.]

Yo!

[Her hand rises to wave.]

This is really neat! This is like those streetlight trees at home and those weird white things that look like people. It’s this planet’s way of taking care of us before we go!

[ Of course, the question still remained.

Would they be able to leave? Alpha likes to think so. She stares thoughtfully into the Vine for a few moments. Well, in the mean time, she could at least talk to people, right? It had been so long since she had customers at her Café before arriving here.]

My name is Alpha Hatsuseno! How are you all doing?

Also! I think this place needs a café of its own. So, I think I’ll bring Café Alpha to the Gardens. Of course, I’ll probably only be able to make tea for awhile until I can find some coffee beans… but that’s okay! I can make good tea! Anyone have any flavors they like?


[OOC: Just kinda assuming she explored a little before making herself known. Replies will be slow as I'm finishing up finals!]
