[ There's a cheery Lancelot on the network, dressed in an apron and toting a menu. The background is a rather serene looking cafe, and in the background is someone working studiously in the background serving customers. He smiles as he addresses the camera. ]

Good day to you, Prismatica. Have you considered that the coffee you're drinking is just water and bitter bits rather than an experience that takes you away from the real world for a moment?

That's what we're offering you here at Cafe Azure. I'm the assistant manager, Lancelot and with our owner and barista Sandalphon - we're offering coffee as an experience. Coffee as a moment in time rather than just something you drink to keep you going through the drudgery of life.

Ah, yeah... the names were from a friend. He has a penchant for these kinds of overdramatic things. But the drinks are next to none, so please consider coming to Cafe Azure! We look forward to seeing you there!

[ too late he still has the outfit ]

Relax, I'm not wearing that in public.

At home though, that's a different story.

[ Why is his life this distressing? ]

Not even there! I'll go to the bistro, and you can serve it to me as you would any other customer. It wouldn't do you much good in my judgment if the experience wasn't as natural as possible.

[ritterstand]

Sure thing! Anything for to impress the Lord of Flames and his most discerning taste in everything!

[vassalize]

Don't patronize me. If I simply complimented you all the time like Vane, you would never improve in your skill. He doesn't have the heart to tell you when something is sub-par.

[ritterstand]

You never change, do you Percival?

[vassalize]

And neither do you, but I suppose there is some merit to you being consistent and predictable, at least.

[ritterstand]

You can just say that you're happy about it. It's not like I'll think less of you if you express it like that.

[vassalize]

I'm only happy it makes it easy to foresee your next move in and out of combat.

[ritterstand]

And you should know it makes all your movements predictable as I can counter based on how you perceive my own actions.

[vassalize]

That sounds like a challenge, Lancelot. Are you certain you wish to face me once more?

[ritterstand]

I would hope that your skills haven’t dulled being in this place, as mine haven’t.

[ and if they fight there better be sexy times after ]

[vassalize]

As though I'd allow them. While you chose to wait tables, I have been keeping up my training regimen.

[ Is there any other type of sparring? ]

[ritterstand]

Bold of you to think that the training dummies in the backyard were pristine and unused.

[vassalize]

I will be the judge of that once you complete your shift. Then we'll settle matters.
