RP Thread: The Guild Ice Cream Parlor

[Anryoku]

You are walking down the street in a small town. You see a nice looking shop, situated slightly below ground. There are stairs leading down to the door and windows built at a 60 degree angle, to provide a better view and more light. Flowers are planted in window boxes and a sign by the door reads, "ICECREAM!"

You descend the stairs and enter the shop. There is a counter in front of you, with a vast menu hanging behind it, listing the huge selection of flavours. To your right are two doors, leading to a mens' and womens' restrooms. To your left you see a cluster of bistro tables, seating between two and five people. There is also a fireplace in the back corner and squishy couches and armchairs. There are four booths near the window, lit by lamps hanging from the ceiling. Christmas lights are hung on the rafters, along with vines covered in flowers. On each table is a vase with a flower and a candle burning. The walls are lined with various bookshelves and wastebaskets, while paintings hang above them.

The mood is very subdued and cheery. You see a hostess walking around between the tables and taking orders.

Suddenly the Out of Character Guild Robot Appears and says, "Welcome to the Official Guild Ice Cream Parlor. This is a general RP and place to introduce yourself. Anyone can join in at any time!"

[Bizzaro Mikey]

A man enters the palor of ice cream. He looks from side to side, judging the measure of said parlor. His hair falls in his eyes. He pulls the orange strands back. He slids his glasses down to get a better view. He adjusts his pants and begins shouting for all to hear, "I DEMAND ICE CREAM IN VAST QUANTITIES!!!!"  

[Anryoku]

"In what variety, sir?" questions a lightly accented female voice from behind him. A small grin creeps across the female's face. She stands behind the counter holding a frosty ice cream scoop. She taps the scoop against the top of the counter to get his attention.

"Today's specials are macaroni and cheese ice cream cones with sprinkles and salmon sushi sundays!" she explains with a wink.  

[Bizzaro Mikey]

"I shall endulge in your Creamed Corn variety. AND IT WILL BE DELICIOUS!!!"  

[Anryoku]

Her eyes pop slightly out of her head. eek

"Umm... Y-yes, sir," she stammers, sliding open the glass panal of the freezer and uncapping the lid of the Creamed Corn flavored Icecream.

Before scooping out the creamy white icecream with yellow chunks, she pauses, afraid to ask him whether he wants a cone or a bowl. She shrugs and scoops the icecream into a large bowl, piling it high. She then takes a cone from the pile behind her and scoops icecream into that as well. After squirting both the cone and the bowl with whipped cream, she hands both to the customer and smiles meekly.

"I wasn't sure whether you wanted a bowl or a cone, so you can have both for the price of one!" she explains apprehensively, in hopes the explaination would calm the man.  

[Bizzaro Mikey]

The man eyes the woman curiously. His eyes look to the bowl, then move to the cone. He ponders. Should he take the bowl or the cone? Was it a trick? Was he being tested? Only one way to know for sure. Aprehensively he reaches out and takes the cone. He bites down into the ice cream.  

[Anryoku]

Anryoku breathes a sigh of relief.

She suddenly thinks back to her training, when the former clerk of the ice cream parlor had told her, "Beware the Icecream Nazi! He comes demanding icecream in vast quantities..." The lilting voice in her memory still haunted her.

Could this be the imfamous Icecream Nazi? She shutters and backs away from the counter slowly.  

[Bizzaro Mikey]

The man pulls away from the ice cream and looks at the woman. A tear comes to his eye. 'Why does everyone run away from me? Do I smell?' he thinks.  

[Anryoku]

At the sight of the tear Anryoku is suddenly flooded with guilt and pity. She steps back towards the man.

"Whatever is wrong, sir?" she asks softly, hoping to comfort him.

She is internally relieved. This man who shows sadness could never be the Icecream Nazi, for he is evil and cold-hearted, showing no emotions but relentless fury and passionate hatred.  

[Anryoku]

I changed your last post so it's in present tense. I think you inadvertently switched the past tense half-way through. ^_^;;

Wow... I have god-like powers... domokun  

[Bizzaro Mikey]

Your god powers frighten and disturb me.  

[Bizzaro Mikey]

The man turns away from her, to hide his tears. "No I'm fine, don't worry about me, I'm used to it by now." He bites his lip to keep from crying out loud.  

[Anryoku]

She bounces out from behind the counter and approaches the man, placing a hand on his shoulder.

"Used to what?" she asks to cover her embarassment for fearing the strange man, "I was only backing away because I don't like how the Creamed Corn Icecream smells," she lies in an innocent voice.
