Tom was walking his dogs around Detroit when he walked by The Coffee Shoppe. He certainly enjoyed the cappuccino he ordered the last time he stopped by. He found a place in the patio area to tie his dogs while he ran inside to place his order. Like last time, he ordered a cappuccino and a ham & cheese croissant. He also asked for some water for his dogs as it was a hot day. The server handed Tom his food, coffee, and a bowl of water. He walked out to the patio and sat down, place the bowl under the table. Tom took his time with his coffee and croissant, while the dogs gulped all the water. When he was done, he pulled out a cigarette and sat back in his chair to enjoy the rest of the day before continuing on with his walk.      

While in DT  Logan- stops in The Coffee Shoppe. He walks in and up to the counter and asks the worker for a double Expresso'. She smiles and makes him one they both go to checkout and smile he pays her and says have a nice day.

It had been a splendid day and the sun shined brightly in Detroit today and Tutte was in for a relaxing break with some coffee and some time relaxing sitting down and just taking it easy for a while, he opens the door into The Coffee House and takes a seat near the window so he could have some fun watching people outside in the street.

He got himself a cup of coffee and a bagel and just were satisfied over being able to sit for a while and relax.

Tony walks in and orders himself a coffee with milk. He also takes few donuts and starts to read newspaper. He sees all these deaths and wonders, what the hell is going on again.

He finishes his coffee and pays for it. He calls himself a taxi and goes to the Hq.

Time for a break and a better place than at The Coffee Shoppe couldn't he find so he takes a seat outside of the cafe and waits for service in a pretty sunny morning in Detroit this day.

Soon comes a waitress out and he tells her that he wants a regular coffee and a Danish cookie to it, she thanks for the order and goes in to get what he just ordered, she comes pretty quick out to him with a cup coffee and a wonderful pastry from Denmark. 

After some time when he was finished with his coffee-break, he puts the payment under the cup and walks out again in the busy streets of Detroit to see what to do for any business before leaving town.

         It had been a long morning and Tom was in need of a break. He took a walk to The Coffee Shoppe. He had enjoyed his previous experiences at the shop, and it's coffee. As he was about to walk in, he finished his smoke and walked to the counter. As he was looking at the menu, he decided this time he would try something other than cappuccinos with ham & cheese croissants. The woman at the counter smiled at Tom and asked how he and his dogs were. After the brief small talk, he ordered an espresso and a slice of classic coffee cake. Tom paid and put his change in the tip jar. A few minutes later his order was ready. Tom grabbed his coffee and cake and went along his way. He had finished his cake shortly after he left the shop and lit a smoke. Tom loved nothing more than a coffee and a smoke.

working hard in DT Logan- stops in The Coffee Shoppe. he walks in up to the worker and asks for a coffee please,and the lady pours it for him and he pays her and says have a good day as he exits.

The Coffee Shoppe, oh yeah, time for coffee and some cookies again, he was so in need of both right now, big things were about to happen the coming hours so he needed some energy in the body to have full power to manage to get through those hours.

He bought a cup of coffee and a small plate of good cookies (could take as many-roomed on the plate, perfect, and he also in his coffee poured in some milk and then sat down to relax and get his senses back in motion.

Jester had a hankering for that old time favorite milk and cookies.  THere was just something about it which soothed him.

He'd heard good things about the baked goods in Seraph's shop and thought that he'd give it a try on his way through Detroit on business for the boss.

He parked his unicycle out front and then made his way into the cafe.  There were a few people in there, but it wasn't overly full.

Jester finds a nice booth off to the right and waves over a waitress.

"Chocolate chip cookies and milk please and thank you."

He was soon away from here but he wanted something for the road to stay alert all the way he comes into The Coffee Shoppe, looks around and nods to some he knows good in there and then he walks up to an empty table and stretches his legs under the table waiting to get service.

A girl comes to him and wonders what it will be, a black coffee says LillisMolly to her and two muffins to please. She goes to get his coffee and muffins and he looks at her all the way, pretty beautiful young girl was this, couldn't take his eyes from her.

Here she comes with the coffee and he thanks her and when she walks back he was sure she fooled him a bit and let her body screw it much more to be more sexual, gah, he drank his coffee and put $2 extra in the tip and hurries out to his car.

Exquisite promise to meet up with the Reverend again before she left.  She enjoys the heart to heart that the two shared.  As she was stepping out of the church into the streets, what use to be so quiet was chaotic as folks were running around panicking, a lot of bloodsheds was going on. Exquisite sighs with a heavy heart, she knew death was part of life but it still affected her slightly.  It was late at night and she was not in the mood for a bar so she makes her way to the coffee shop that was close by.

"Charmaine? Is that really you in the flesh? "

 Ex sighs softly, did the Reverend trigger something as she turns toward the voice that belongs to an elderly gentleman that was looking at her in awe just like the Reverend earlier  

"Um, I think you are mistaken, sir"

She was at a loss for words as the elderly man comes forth and squeeze her hand, a look of delight appears on his gnarly like features, he started to shine a little causing Ex to smile

"No, it is really you "

Ex is touched by the man kindness she gives him a hug before disappearing into the coffee shop.

Inside she orders a hot chocolate and blueberry muffin, paying for her order, she goes and enjoy it at one of the tables at the window, she did notice folks were staring at her in awe and disbelief, she tries to shrug it off, too much on her mind to deal with at the moment.

Tony arrived to Detroit for some little business. He decided to have a coffee before the meeting. He walked in and took a seat. He ordered himself a coffee with milk. Lighted up a cigarette and finished his coffee. Tony paid for the coffee and left the place.

Exquisite was sipping her hot chocolate, quite baffle with folks calling her by Charmaine. It all started with the Reverend and it was like a cancer spreading.  She would have to revaluate things as she waited for things to manifest, the good thing was her patience was getting stronger. Mister L was working overtime, corruptness was getting worse.  The funny thing instead of her light getting weaker it was growing brighter at an insane rate.

She was thankful for The Gladiators stepping up. They were working overtime around the clock helping were needed it.  There was a low frequency going around it seem a lot of individuals she encounters was dealing with. Most of them were in a zombie-like state until she spoke life into them with love and encouragement.  She has come to terms that her energy was some of purest and highest in this day and age, she was pretty evolved but modest about it. She realizes too many would not understand. She enjoys being a misfit. With only twenty to her name now, she continues to make herself more relatable to the folks that were considered too common.

Suddenly it hit her, the reason why folks were in awe was that she was fully awaking.  Hmm, another reason why Hakim appeared. He was there over twenty years ago when she went back into a deep slumber so to speak. Only a few were aware of things about her that were classified.

Somewhere she could hear Mister L cussing because he was fully aware she didn’t have a problem dealing with darkness or evil for that matter.  She had a long ongoing history with it.

Looking around Exquisite smiled at something that only she could see at the moment.  The server comes up and offers her a refill.

Tony walks in and takes a seat. This place is familiar to him, he usually visits this place when his in town for business. He orders himself a coffee with milk and few donuts. When he finishes, he smokes few cigarettes and then pays for the drink. He thanks the owner and wish him a good business in the future.

Victor walked in with his cigarette lit just hanging on his lips.  He exhales as he watches the people ordering coffee.  He moves towards the counter and places an order for a coffee black no sugar and a apple tart.  Then he smiles as he continues to walk towards a free table he was eyeing.  He sat down and waited for the server to bring him his order.  Looking around an seeing only a few faces that he could recall names of he looks out the window and spots a cabby that owed him some money.  He smiled as he knew he would collect that later in the day.     

A very polite quiet man enters the coffee shop. He smiles slightly and says to the lady behind the counter three shots of espresso to go, she quickly hands him his order and he sits down in a corner table table and lays out the espresso in front of two empty seats. He then begins to sip his drink.

Kassandra ordered eight coffees and two danishes, smiling a bit at the odd look she received from the girl at the counter as she hefted the tray up and carried it back to the table that her husband Camdyn had chosen. 

That's- a lot of coffee, Darling. Are we anticipating guests joining us?" He asked, then swiveled in his seat to glance out the window. The Detroit trip was another liquor supply run for his wife's small business back in Philadelphia. He'd stayed at the hotel this time when she'd gone off to the meet and greets with the various suppliers, but hadn't had a chance to ask questions about how those meetings had gone when she'd called him up and asked him to please meet her here for coffee.

Now, several cups of dark roast were being set in front of him. Four, to be exact. He then watched as Kassandra eased four slim flasks out of her purse and, when no one was looking, poured a dash of the contents from each into each of the coffees. 

"Call it a tasting, Baby," she said, her voice low. "The first is rum. The second, bourbon. The third is whisky, and the fourth is brandy. Don't drink all of it, of course. I just want to see if they're any good. I can get the first two for a really good price, almost too good, so I have my doubts of course. The third comes from someone highly recommended because of the barrels they use in their process. The fourth is someone I already get wine from, so my hopes are high on that one," she said, picking up the brandied coffee and sipping from it.

"I was right. It's good! Even better with something sweet," she said as she lifted one of the pastries and offered him a bite. He was looking at her like pastry, coffee, and Detroit didn't exist, but he indeed looked hungry.

"I'm definitely thinking that I prefer both the bourbon and the whiskey over the other two but in fairness they have always been my go to for a drink in the past." Camdyn said having had a taste test of all four coffees "what do you think Kass?"

"I liked the whiskey and brandy however I may have been being slightly biased due to knowing where they will be coming from, that said I rarely drink bourbon and I'm tempted to go with your choice and recommendation" Kassandra replied intently staring at her mug of coffee as her mind raced.

She strummed her fingers along the table, her nails making little clicking noises as they hit. After a few moments Kassandra picked up the mug of coffee which had the bourbon in it and took a mouthful, as she allowed her tastebuds to absorb the flavour a small look of disgust started to creep across her face.

"Bleugh" she said finally "Thats definitely bourbon alright, I can't stomach it and have never been able to." She took another mouthful of her first coffee with the brandy in it and sighed happily.

She reached over with her free hand and clasped it around his, "Okay I've decided, I'm going to go with your gut Mr Professional Gambler man, we'll get the bourbon and the whiskey and see if I'm right to trust you on this" she said suddenly grinning at him. "You never know, you might get a big bonus out of this if you're lucky."
