log; maybe one day bruno will be cool

[unenvied]

I

[It's a lovely day—the kind perfect for a cup of coffee and some sweets. Whether you're outside of the cafe, though, or already inside—well, you might notice one (1) weirdo pressed up against the window, peering into the building with a wide-eyed look.]

...

[Nothing to see here, move along—]

II

[Kai and Master seemed to enjoy it, so why not give it a try...?

And that's how Bruno ended up sitting on the edge of a fountain, tossing out pigeon feed. This would be great, except none of the pigeons are approaching.]

Why...!? Why will they not come to me?

[WHY DO ANIMALS HATE HIM.

... In any case, after it becomes clear that this is a failure, he turns to the nearest person and holds out the bag of feed.]

Would you like it? It appears I have no use for it.

III

[Evening falls upon the town, and—]

Thief!

[As a man grasping a book runs by, weaving into an alleyway, Bruno's call rings out in the air—with Bruno in pursuit of said thief. Help him out, Y/N??]

I - it's jesse with another fate/

[.............................

Shirou happens to be working part-time at the cafe Bruno is stalking. It's hard not to notice a grown man glued to the window, looking suspicious as all hell. He waits on it -- maybe he'll get tired and go away -- but it looks like the stranger is here to stay.

He leaves the register to a coworker before he pops outside with a frown.]

Hey, uh, can I help you?

[unenvied]

[Bruno gives a start, looking appropriately embarrassed at being caught staring.]

M-My apologies! I did not mean to be impolite, but I was, er...

[... Well, this is embarrassing.]

[houseworks]

[What a weirdo?]

You should come in if you want to order something.

[unenvied]

I-Indeed! Forgive my rudeness. However... is it acceptable to enter if I am not certain of what to order?

[How do cafes work????]

[houseworks]

[?????????]

Why wouldn't it be?

[Hmm. Shirou reaches into his apron and pulls out a menu because he's a star employee.]

Here.

[unenvied]

Thank you kindly.

[He takes it and peruses through it... and then sometimes glances around because is he?? supposed to sit down before ordering?? or after???

See, this is why he needed to observe through the window.]

[houseworks]

[. . .]

Why don't you come in?

[unenvied]

T-Thank you. I would like that.

[houseworks]

[Get cozy then!! Shirou will lead him to a table and motion for him to take a seat.]

Let me know when you're ready.

[unenvied]

[He sits, as motioned.]

I will do so—ah. [He pauses, smiling politely.] Actually, what would you recommend?

[houseworks]

Well... the espresso's a big hit with our customers.
