Start of #Youkai2 buffer: Thu Oct 22 21:00:34 2009 [19:07:12] [At [Bean Around], Kentaro gets to work.] [19:07:29] * He notices a person walk in who doesn't seem to have the scent of a human on them. [19:08:19] * Kentaro is wearing a mesh cap and a green apron over a shirt that shows a squid pulling a suspension bridge down into the water in front of a city skyline [19:08:43] * Kikuko, a bright-eyed high school girl in a work uniform walks up to Jan. She blinks, and sniffs the air a bit. "Hi, and welcome to [Bean Around]. I'm Kikuko. Have a seat." [19:09:24] * Jan_Goku is a young man in his teens whose wearing an orange bomber jacket over a white shirt and blue jeans. He has red hair and blue eyes [19:09:41] * Jan_Goku sits down [19:10:07] * Kikuko hands a menu over to Jan. Another customer walks in. "Oh... Niichan, can you help this one out? I've got another one coming in." [19:10:36] * Jan_Goku looks at the menu [19:11:24] * There are a number of interesting-looking snacks on there, including some nice cakes. It looks like going here was probably a good idea. [19:12:20] * Jan_Goku checks for anything with bananas in it [19:12:26] * Kentaro eyes the customer, but goes back to tending the machines behind the counter, making it seem as though he's really working [19:13:15] * Banana split ice cream, banana bread, cake slices with bananas... [19:13:46] * Jan_Goku blinks and whistles at the selection [19:17:05] * Jan_Goku checks his wallet first before deciding on anything [19:17:17] * Nice and full. [19:18:56] * Jan_Goku thinks and scratches his head at the selection. Seems like he's really using those braincells [19:19:09] * Kikuko sees that Jan hasn't been attended to yet. She heads back. "Oh, sorry about the wait. Did you decide on what you'd like?" [19:20:21] * Kentaro is big for a Japanese teenager, around 5'10" and broadly built. He's wearing a t-shirt and tight, fashionable pants along with a pair of canvas basketball shoes. His hair seems to be dyed a light brown, and he wears a pair of thick black glasses. He keeps shooting curious glances over his shoulder as he wipes down the coffee machines [19:20:26] "Oh yes! I'd like a banana split!" [19:20:54] * She scribbles it down. "Anything else?" [19:21:45] * Jan_Goku has the rather odd feature of having "Kouji Kabuto hair", that is he's got big sideburns and wild hair [19:22:17] "Oh and since I'm in a good mood, let's have a couple slices of banana bread" [19:22:36] * She writes that down. "Okay. Anything you'd like to drink?" [19:22:57] "Banana shake! Err, please!" [19:23:13] * Kikuko nods. "I'll be right back." [19:25:05] * She heads behind the counter. "Niichan, you're good with drinks. Think you could get a banana shake going?" [19:29:25] * Kikuko goes back to work after passing the order onto the others in the back [19:29:49] * Kentaro blinks. "Really? Banana shake? Sure." [19:30:07] * Kentaro heads to one of the machines and begins the arcane procedure to make it produce a banana shake. [19:32:01] * The banana shake is produced. Kikuko leaves the kitchen, with some banana bread and a banana split in tow, and picks up the shake. "Thanks niichan." Soon, she delivers it to Jan. [19:32:38] "Thank you, Miss" [19:32:40] * Adyen (senranda@74.12.128.117) has joined #Youkai2 [19:32:57] * Kikuko goes to deal with some other customers. In the meantime, Kentaro's break time arrives. [19:33:25] * Jan_Goku beams at the bounty before him before digging in [19:33:52] * Kentaro takes his hat and apron off, and makes himself a largely confectionary drink, and sits at one of the tables, reading a French magazine. Shortly through his break, he waves Kikuko over. [19:34:13] * Emmy (senranda@74.12.121.45) Quit (Ping timeout: 180 seconds) [19:34:28] * Kikuko walks over after taking the next round of orders. She looks at Kentaro quizically. [19:34:53] * Kentaro speaks, sotto voce. "Do you think he is what I think he is?" [19:36:14] Possibly... [19:37:45] * Jan_Goku stops momentarly and makes an odd face due to brain freeze [19:37:55] * Kentaro lifts his glass off the table and draws a circle with two smaller semicircles on the sides, and then a crude face in the condensation [19:38:38] *Kikuko nods. "Yeah, like that." [19:38:51] * She thinks. Then draws two little legs then two little circles. [19:39:44] * Kentaro laughs, and then draws a circle on top of a larger circle, a crude face and round ears on top, then a pair of legs with a pair of circles as large as the elgs [19:40:10] * Kikuko giggles. [19:40:51] * Jan_Goku resumes eating [19:42:16] * Adyen is now known as Emmy [19:44:15] I don't think he was in any of my classes... what about you? [19:44:49] Nah, must be a new kid [19:47:09] * Jan_Goku finishes and gets up to go pay the cashier [19:48:11] * Jan pays for his meal easily. [19:48:48] Thanks for visiting [Bean Around]. Come again soon. [19:49:04] "I'm sure I will" [19:49:17] * Jan_Goku walks outside [19:58:32] * Soon, Kentaro's shift is over. Where'll he go now? [19:58:38] * Also, where is Jan headed? [19:58:44] * Perhaps the local game center? [19:58:50] * Jan_Goku heads over to the game center [20:00:12] * Kentaro heads to the game center to rock some skee-ball and hang out on the roof [20:00:28] * The local game center, [Scepter Games], is pretty a pretty busy locale, but it's clean and well-lit. [20:01:50] * Jan_Goku goes to the crane machine and tries his luck [20:03:01] * Jan sees a number of potential prizes. The crane lowers... [20:03:26] * Kentaro puts in the coin, and a bunch of fist-sized wooden balls slide into a slot near him. [20:03:43] * Jan_Goku tries for something resembling a dragon [20:04:52] * Kentaro tests the weight of the ball in his hand, and gets ready to throw, then accidentally pitches it at the back of the skee-ball machine as he notices Jan [20:05:44] * The ball hits the backboard, bounces off, and lads in the highest-scoring slot. [20:06:34] * The dragon is lifted up... and falls loose. [20:06:56] * Jan_Goku tries again [20:07:18] * A few tries later, it falls into the prize slot. [20:07:45] "Woot!" [20:08:58] * Jan_Goku takes his prize and heads over to the skee-ball machine next to Kentaro [20:09:23] * Kentaro's got a number of balls still there. [20:09:35] * Jan_Goku plunks in a coin [20:09:43] * The balls slide into place. [20:11:00] * Jan_Goku takes one and juggles it in his right hand in an attempt to get a feel for the ball [20:11:42] * Kentaro continues rolling balls down the ramp, stealing glances at Jan [20:11:59] * Jan_Goku rolls the ball down the ramp [20:15:18] * By the time the game is over, Jan's scored 1600 points. Kentaro, on the other hand, is distracted enough that in spite of his early great showing, ends up with 400. [20:15:43] * Occasioanly trying to roll two balls together at the same time also probably doesn't help. [20:16:12] [1000 is Kentaro's score, even ] [20:16:36] * A number of tickets are dispensed [20:18:36] [Let's move stuff here over to the main channel End of #Youkai2 buffer Thu Oct 22 21:00:34 2009
