17, 42, 55

17. How my last kiss went down.

Hmm... When even was my last kiss anyway? -ponders- Oh! I think...it was a goodbye/break-up kiss. My parents had had enough of where we were and wanted to move on, and as much as I did like the place I didn't really want to stay, so we had to end it. Heh... -grins sheepishly-

42. The nicest thing anyone's ever said to me.

Nicest thing, nicest thing.... 'I feel like I can tell you anything'. Hehehe.

55. What words upset me the most.

Uhh... -frowns slightly- Well, there are the usual demeaning terms that just shouldn't be said that I don't like... I also don't like words with a whole bunch of vowels. Like Areolae. Or Nouveau.I'm sure there might be more but as to what I'm drawing a bit of a blank, heh.

Craving Cravings (Cade)

[goldenraybakery-blog]

“There are a lot of new people around here, huh?” Cade remarked.  “Not that it’s a bad thing.  It’s nice.”  He smiled shyly, encouraged by the stranger’s friendliness.  “My name’s Cade.  Nice to meet you, Drake.”  He gauged Drake’s reaction as he took his first bite of the cake.  “How is it?  The cake, I mean.”

[theenergeticgarcon-blog]

Whether there really, truly were new people around Drake couldn’t confirm, though he could say quite a few new people kept popping up in succession, which in hindsight probably meant the same thing. Either way instead of thinking about that he should be busier thinking about this cake he was eating; which was delicious mind you. When asked how it was, he turned to look at Cade, swallowed the piece in his mouth and grinned. “It’s amazing~ I’m pretty sure I could eat this all day, my compliments to the chef!” he replied. “…or would it be baker in this case? Hmm…” he mused.

“So, you been living here long? Any particular reason you decided to come here? Or work in a bakery, for that matter, heh.” he started asking, trying to make idle conversation. As he spoke he kept eating his cake up until the point where he reached to take another piece and…nothing. Aw, he finished it.

[goldenraybakery-blog]

Cade blushed lightly at the compliment, glad that Drake was enjoying the food.  Averting his gaze, he mumbled out a thank-you.  “Chocolate cake is the best, isn’t it?” he added excitedly.  “Yeah, chef, baker, whatever you want to call it,” he chuckled.  “Doesn’t really matter.”

“Oh not that long.  Just a month or so,” he explained.  “I used to live in a more urban area, and I wanted a change of pace, so I came here.  So far, it’s really different, but in a good way, y’know?” he grinned.  “It’s like…calm and quiet.”

[theenergeticgarcon-blog]

Drake chuckled slightly at the response given. Chocolate cake was okay in his book. It was definitely high up on his favourite dessert list.

He listened attentively to Cade's mini-story, twirling the fork around his fingers. Near the end of it, his lips had curled up in a smile and he laughed. "Heh, it really is calm and quiet here, isn't it? It's a nice change." he replied. "I myself spent a few years traveling with my parents. It's fun, and you learn a lot of new things and meet a lot of different people, but..." he shrugged, "Staying in one place and actually trying to get to know people's nice, too." He finished with a grin.

“Ehe… I suppose I do, no?” Absolom chuckled sheepishly, running his slim fingers through his raven hair for a moment before letting his hand fall back to his side. “Drake, mm? Ah, service… what I mean by that is entertainment, of course!” He suddenly winked and clapped his hands in a quick, rhythmic four eighth note pattern.

[theenergeticgarcon-blog]

“Aaah, an entertainer!” Drake replied, clapping his hands together and his face lighting up at the discovery. He was quite impressed at what Absolom had done and attempted to mimic it, failing quite nicely. He just laughed if off, though. “Hehe, I’m curious to know what all else you can do. As for me, I’m just a waiter that doesn’t really do much waiting, heh.”

[operatic--dreamer-blog]

A soft laugh had escaped Absolom’s thin, pink lips at Drake’s attempt and failure to copy his movements. Clapping his hands only once before clasping them together in front of him, Absolom winked again, “I can do many things. I spent my whole life finding various ways to entertain people. From acting to magic, I’m quite prepared to do it all on stage!~” Anyone could tell he was happy to be speaking of entertaining. It was written all over his face, in every single movement he made - the happiness was there. “A waiter, mm? I remember I always wanted to try to see if I could handle doing that kind of job, but I don’t think I could handle it unless it was only for awhile to fit a role in a play or something or the sort…”

[theenergeticgarcon-blog]

This was actually quite exciting, if the huge grin on Drake's face was any indication to how he felt. Not just listening to Absolom talk, but trying to picture all the things he could possibly do on stage. Drake was no stranger to entertainers, having seen quite a few during the time he still traveled and watching many perform, but now that he thought about he hadn't really ever spoken to one up close. Most of the time because of language barriers, but still. And by the look of things, Absolom enjoyed what he did. When the topic of his job choice came back again, though, he grinned sheepishly. "Yeeeah... To be honest it's not exactly what I'm aiming for, but for now it earns me my stay and it's not horrible." he chuckled. "But enough about that! I'm just wondering... You wouldn't happen to be able to teach me one of your many skills, would you?" he asked, positively glowing. He wasn't really expecting an answer in his favour, but if you never asked you never know!

“Greetings, mon amis.” A simple, one movement wave gesture was given as his other hand rested on his hip. A typical smirk upon Absolom’s thin lips.

[theenergeticgarcon-blog]

“Oooh, hey there! New person!” Drake replied, waving his right hand rather enthusiastically at the male.

[operatic--dreamer-blog]

Gratified by the reaction he had received, Absolom’s smirk turned into an amused smile. Clasping his hands behind his back, he nodded in hello to Drake. “Heh, ‘tis a pleasure to meet thee. Absolom Loveguard, at thy service.”

[theenergeticgarcon-blog]

“Hehe, you have an interesting way of speaking.” Drake replied with a chuckle as Absolom spoke again. “Drake Fischer’s the name. And when you say service, what kind are you offering exactly?” He replied, asking more out of curiousity than anything.

[operatic--dreamer-blog]

Craving Cravings (Cade)

Walking around town with a book in hand was something that Drake did relatively often. When he wasn’t working. And when he walked around, it was usually with little to no goal in mind. Just to keep his mind and feet busy as he went about.

This time however he was a man on a mission. He was seriously hankering for something sweet right now and, seeing how he was pretty sure there was no candy store in town, he went on to the next best thing; the bakery. As he neared he looked up from his book, tucked it away and practically swung its door open. “H—-ello~ Anyone here? Anything up for recommendation?” he questioned as he made his way further inside.

[goldenraybakery-blog]

Cade had dozed off to sleep at the front desk when he heard the door open.  He jolted awake and faced the visitor - surprisingly, it was an unfamiliar face.  I guess I still haven’t met everyone in this town, he thought.  Silver town was really growing fast.  The baker brushed his hair back into place with his fingers and cleared his throat.  “Oh, h-hello there!  Uh, recommendations?  Well, it depends on what you like, I guess…”  Cade walked over to the display counter.  “There’s chocolates, fruit pastries, bread, coffee…” he said, motioning to each item as he listed them.  “My personal favorite is the chocolate cake.”

[theenergeticgarcon-blog]

Drake took a moment to eye the bakery’s selection before looking up when the baker made himself more known. In retrospect, he could have first located him, greeted him and then asked about recommendations. Oh well, too late for that now. He hummed slightly at the mention as everything was pointed out, trying to figure what exactly he would ask for. After a few seconds he chuckled, “Heh, I really can’t decide on my own. If your favourite is chocolate cake, then for today it shall be my favourite, too! I’d like a slice! Oh, and probably some coffee to wash it down~” he replied cheerfully.

[goldenraybakery-blog]

“Of course,” Cade replied.  He walked over to slice a piece of chocolate cake for his customer.  He arranged the cake nicely on a fancy plate and handed it to Drake, then poured him some hot coffee from a boiling coffee pot.  “One slice of cake, and coffee…that’s 400G.”  After they finished the transaction, he cleared his throat and spoke up again.  “S-So, uh…this is your first time to the bakery, I guess?  I mean, I haven’t seen you around here.”

[theenergeticgarcon-blog]

Just as he was about to help himself to the cake, he heard the other clear his throat and looked up. Oh...oh right! "Aha, wow, did I skip an introduction? My bad. Yeah, I guess this would be my first time here, seeing how 'm still pretty new and all that." he chuckled. "The name's Drake. I work as a waiter at the Silver Bar and Hotel. Et tu?" he replied as he finally took a bite of his cake.

[better-swing-blog]

Even if I do, I’m sure I can still beat ya’. - Nods and smiles to himself-

[theenergeticgarcon-blog]

… Somehow, I don’t doubt that, heh. Still, don’t start off underestimating me, I might surprise you! Hehe, this coming from someone who’s only ever read on baseball and barely ever played something as simple as catch. -sheepish laugh-

[better-swing-blog]

You must prepare yourself then! You cannot battle me with little stats on baseball skills, kiddo!

[theenergeticgarcon-blog]

Heh, and prepare to the best of my abilities I shall! Hey, we can even make this interesting and make a bet of sorts. Sounds like it could make things more interesting, right?

[better-swing-blog]

A bet?! Sounds like a plan to me! - Smirks- How would ya like to play? Mano a Mano or teams?

[theenergeticgarcon-blog]

Hmm… For a bet I think mano a mano would be best! But now that you mention it, it’d be fun if we got a group of people together and just all play a friendly match! Thought those’re just my thoughts, hehe.

[better-swing-blog]

Hmm… It doesn’t seem like a bad idea at all! We should gather everyone and just play ‘till our heart’s content! - Nods to himself- Do ya’ agree? Besides, I need to get to know everyone aroun’ here.

[theenergeticgarcon-blog]

Hehe, yes, that sounds like it could be a lot of fun! For those that want to participate, anyway. Yeah I could totally start running around being all 'HEY! WHO ALL WANTS TO PLAY BASEBALL?' and not be sure if I'll get weird looks or actually get people to play. I guess in short what I'm trying to say is yes! A Silver Town Baseball Day sounds like a lot of fun!

dirt-dont-hurt:

\laughs\ I’ve got some chickens and I am indeed growing crops. I’ve got some potatoes, turnips… Ya know, spring stuff.

Ooh, chickens! Chickens can be cute, until they start attacking you relentlessly, hehe. -laughs- Wow, just thinking about a farm filled with all kinds of animals, fruits and veggies is kind of exciting!

[dirt-dont-hurt-deactivated20120]

\laughs nervously\ Eheh… Yeah. I’ve had my run ins with those… But yeah, farm life is awesome, man. \nods\ Everything just looks and feels awesome.

[theenergeticgarcon-blog]

Oh? So I see I'm not the only idiot who's experienced the rage of chickens! Makes me sorta wonder how many others have as well.... So, I can tell you enjoy the farming life. I hope the town is equally enjoyable for you, heh.
