Coffee x Tea Café

Hilda Jonsdottir

First Year

After a short yet eventful journey, Hilda was now finally at her destination. Well nearly. She had made a long journey by boat from Iceland and after having gone through so many new experiences with nothing but a suitcase that was practically filled to the brim with clothing and other various oddities. One of which was the wooden handle of a battleaxe that caught the attention of a few people. Hilda had traveled a long distance but now her goal was finally in sight. Naturally, Hilda would have rushed to the gates but she decided to stop at the cafe since her mother once told her that cafes were typical environments for students. Hilda's curiosity was welcomed by not only a cashier's greeting but the distinct aroma of coffee beans. Hilda had never had coffee before but that wasn't about to stop her now.

After a very confused and ill-interpreted order, Hilda managed to walk away from the counter with a cheery expression and a black coffee. The cashier told her it was strong so it was a natural choice in her opinion. Hilda was rejoicing her her small victory but then noticed that there weren't any available tables which brought her a new challenge, where was she going to sit? Hilda looked around a bit concerned, she had no idea who any of these people were so she didn't know who or how to approach this dilemma. Hilda briefly looked around and then mustered her courage to ask a stranger if she could sit with them. The stranger she happened to pick was Nerya Astral. "Excuse me, do you mind if I sit here?" Hilda's accent was thick and it was very obvious she wasn't from around here. With coffee in one hand and a huge suitcase in another, she waited patiently for the woman's answer.

With her own mind drifting away and into the abyss of her thoughts, she didn't particularly take note of the constant stirring of her coffee. She had her spoon in the creamy drink and stirred it till a small spill of it's liquid escaped and leapt onto her hand. This caused her to snap back into reality and wince a little. A small red mark was on her finger with the sensation of a burning feeling. It caused her to muffle a few words under her breath. One of them cursing though in a light fashion. No one had taken note and that made her feel satisfied.

Nerya took hold of her drink once more and took a huge sip of it. She settled it hence forth before a voice came whispering her way. It's pitch and tone sounded foreign as she realized who this voice was belonging to. Her eyes gazed upon the white-haired girl with confusion at first. She was asking to seat herself in front of the djinn. It took her a moment to realize why this was asked as the cafe had most indefinitely flooded with other residents of the area. All holding each table as their own. It kinda felt a little crowded for her taste but not so much to wish her away from this place.

Both eyes lured back to the student dubbed Hilda with a smile in them. Nerya cleared her throat and spoke in an accent that wasn't even that hard to predict where she hails from. "I don't mind in the slightest." She gestured her hand in front of her to the empty seat before pulling it back onto the table, in front of her coffee.

Hilda was very relieved when Nerya accepted her at the table and promptly took the seat that was offered to her. "Thank you very much." Hilda set the large suitcase down next to her and then took a moment to examine the woman who she was sharing a table with now. Hilda thought the woman was beautiful and thought she looked very mature with her cappuccino which then quickly reminded Hilda of the drink she purchased. Hilda held the cup up to her lips and took a sip of the black coffee he had now regrettably purchased. The young girl had done her best to try to appear mature and refined by being mindful of her appearance but her effort was quickly undermined by the face she made upon tasting coffee for the first time. Black Coffee no less. It didn't take long for Hilda to regain her composure to not appear rude in front of the stranger but if anything, Hilda's expression would likely be very amusing to Nerya. Hilda very calmly set the cup down in front of her and merely smiled at the woman, she was fully conscious of her reaction and wanted to salvage what positive impression Nerya had left of Hilda. "S-So... Lovely weather we've been having, don't you agree?"

Nerya removed her gaze from Hilda and towards the suitcase. She judged by the look and size of it that it carried clothes. Although this was an assumption, it seemed only fitting for the woman to judge it in that way. She could ask about it but it might be rude. That and she didn't know the girl whose appearance was younger than her own. She took another sip of her drink and consumed what remained inside the cup. The liquid stimulated her body and made her feel a bit more lively than ever. It gave a small smile upon her rosy cheeks.

She raised an eyebrow to the expression shortly after viewing that disgruntled look from the girl. If it didn't seem clearly obvious by now then it never would be; the girl disliked her coffee and gave off a very clear answer from the look. This made a smirk flutter from inside her before ceasing when a generic question arose. "I suppose." She could easily grasp the concept that seating with a stranger may seem nerve racking for Hilda. It didn't seem so for Nerya. Perhaps she should shed some light more on this abrupt conversation between the two.

"Are you on your break from school?" Seemed like a fitting question to ask.

Hilda took another sip when Nerya gave her response, doing a much better job at hiding the fact that it wasn't to her liking. Yup, she didn't like coffee. Or at least she knew she wouldn't be ordering black coffee again, she had silently admitted defeat in the face of this accursed black beverage and placed the cup back down on the table. She looked to Nerya when she asked her question and took a moment to think upon it. "I'm not really sure actually. I was told to go to a nearby Academy on this day but I am not sure if that Academy is on break at the moment? I am actually a new student there, a first year. Do you know of Videl Academy?" As Hilda waited for a response, she decided to try another sip of her black coffee to see if it got any better the more she drank it. Hilda didn't find this sip any more appealing than the last two but she was getting used to the flavor at least.

Nerya sat patiently in her seat with the smallest of stirring of her spoon inside the empty cup. Her own head was tilted while the smile on her face remained strong. This way she perceived herself to the girl was to show friendliness. No motion of moving away from the gardener was needed and thankfully that became assured with the response. Although what she got was quite amusing. A student of the academy she works at. How astute it became. "I in fact do know of the Vidal Academy. I work there and yes they are on break." Her response was quick and straight to the point. "I'm the gardener of this prestigious academy you are attending." A small giggle left her lips after saying that.

Hilda couldn't help but smile at the woman's friendliness but she still wasn't too sure how to act around Nerya. Hilda felt the woman was friendly enough to act relaxed around but Hilda still wanted to show respect to this stranger that allowed her to sit with her. Upon hearing what Nerya had to say, Hilda's eyes lit up as it would seem fate was in her favor. Hilda had no idea this woman was part of the faculty at the very same Academy she was attending and this was a good chance for her to get more details about Videl. Hilda knew nothing about Videl except for the vague description her mentor gave her so Hilda believed that the key to her goal was at that Academy. "What kind of place is Videl Academy? Are its Halls filled with the finest warriors known to man? Would you happen to be a great warrior in addition to being a gardener?" Hilda was practically at the edge of her seat as she waited patiently for a response from the woman as the look in her eyes practically screamed anticipation. To say that the ice was now broken would be an understatement.

Nerya hoped this side of her wasn't coming on too strong. She was always like this around people and will be for days to come. If Hilda showed any sign of an uncomfortable retort then the djinn would dial it down. However it would see that necessary action was but in fact an opposite. Good. It made this conversation more enduring and a little amusing for what she got in response. Those bright eyes of the girl shot up at the mention of Nerya's position at the academy. She was bombarded with questions and all aimed to where this student would be studying at. That was most definitely an encouraging response.

Although... she did feel a small shed of redness spread across her cheeks.

"Everyone is unique at the academy but for warrior wise, I cannot be sure." She rubbed her shoulder with one hand before releasing a sigh. "I'm just a djinn. Not a warrior in the slightest." Yes her abilities give her quite the strength to defend her own but they really only work when she actually clings onto someone. She's practically a leech that refuses to let go.

Hilda wasn't too sure what to make out of Nerya's response. She didn't seem disheartened at all but she certainly was thinking about this. She had assumed that Videl was an institution to shape all the students into warriors so she came to the conclusion that her original assumption had been off. It also looked as though Nerya wasn't a warrior but what was that word she said. A djinn? Hilda wasn't too sure what that was but it sounded as though this woman was unique in the same way she was unique. "A djinn? I can't say I'm familiar with what that is, I apologize." As Hilda looked out the window, she noticed that it had gotten much darker then when she initially arrived, it was nighttime and had wondered where the time went. However she couldn't say she wasn't enjoying this conversation with Nerya. "But being part of the faculty, would you happen to know if there is a lights out time or some form of curfew? I would hate to get in trouble on my first day here." Hilda gave the woman a smile, she definitely felt as though she would offer to help Nerya with her gardening when she had the opportunity.

OOC: So I noticed that announcement about curfew and it being nighttime? I'm not too familiar with what that means but it sounds somewhat urgent that I should bring Hilda to the dorm before she gets in trouble.

Nerya realized that her comment on her being a djinn became an unknown thing to the student. Of course no one else knew about her species and what they can do. It seemed rather fitting for this one to express confusion in such a matter. Oh well.. She kinda shrugged that feeling off and shook her head at Hilda before clearing her throat. "No worries, I'll explain about what that means at a later note." She forward her eyes to outside and to her own surprise it was nighttime. How the day flew by and how this conversation took it's course for quite a long time. She didn't mind. This one was interesting and it was fun to actually sit down and talk with someone for a change. Being alone in thought can be unsettling. "Hm? Oh yes." She looked back and took the liberty of removing herself from the seat. "Come on, I'll escort you so nothing happens." The issuing of curfew had not been official yet. They had a few hours to return and if Hilda got in trouble, Nerya will take the blame. It only seemed fair enough.

"By the way, my name is Nerya." She smiled warmly at her as she waited for the girl to get up and walk with her out of the cafe and towards the academy.

Hilda was a bit curious now that Nerya didn't explain what a djinn was but she decided not to pry, if Nerya wished to tell her later then she would be more than willing to listen. Hilda was also very relieved when the woman had offered to bring her back to the academy grounds which meant she didn't have to worry about being scolded by any of her would-be teachers. Hilda got up from her seat and looked very surprised for a moment, she had completely forgotten to introduce herself! "Oh my apologies, I forgot to introduce myself before!" Hilda quickly bowed to Nerya and smiled at her. "My name is Hilda Jonsdottir, it's a pleasure to meet you!" Hilda looked to her suitcase and picked it up with one arm. Upon closer examination, the suitcase was very large and did look very heavy but Hilda seemed to lift it with ease. She then promptly followed Nerya out of the cafe and towards the academy.

-Exits-

OOC: The announcement seemed pretty big and I'd imagine naturally that cafes would close at around this time. So where are we heading from here?

In the filled coffee shop one person stood out from the crowd, a man wearing traditional clothes in a modern place, and it didn't help that he was sitting at the center table. The table that was in every one's view and he didn't seem to care. The filled his cup with lemongrass tea and just left it there not even taking a sip. Moments later an older gentleman wearing a fedora and carrying a suitcase walked in and sat at the same table as the out of place looking man. "So they finally cracked...Took them long enough, and I'm guessing it's private?" The old man smiled warmly at the man sitting opposite him warmly and chuckled. "Yes" The strange looking man took a sip from his tea before looking at the old man. "Tell me, why did you accept it?" The old man sighed while still smiling he then started taking in his surroundings before looking at his target once more. "I can't let the contract go public...You'll be overwhelmed, I can't let them take you. You're like the son I never had."

The strange looking man took another sip from his hot drink before getting up and pushing the cup and pot towards the older gentleman. "Withdraw from the contract, you're too old to hold them off. They'll come for you so they can have a shot at the reward. Everything I own is one hell of a reward, it'll draw out the remaining 10 elite." The older man took a sip from the tea before standing up "Very well...It's been an honor serving you sir. Promise me you'll make it painless."...."I promise, as long as they don't put up a fight."
