Some flavored sparkling water is okay. Especially when you need something cold.

I also like nitro cold brew coffee. The foaminess actually does bring out different flavors.

Just sparkling water vs pure water I mean xD

Derpy hops up onto the counter.
"I can have latte pwease?"

I can only ever do cold-brew, and even that gives me some anxiety, due to how poorly my stomach handles coffee.

Har, har.

One latte, coming right up! ...You want a tiny bit of chocolate with that?

I'll want a rambutan milkshake pls

Dunno how good that's gonna be, but I could probably make one :|

Do you got any,
<.<

…
<w<
drinking water?

Derpy perks up a little. "Chocowate? Yes pwease!"

<I am back. There was business I had to attend to.>

<Would you like ice? I could also add a couple slices of lemon. Or lime.>

<Here you go. One latte. With chocolate. And a complimentary donut. I seem to remember you like those.>

8o What's this?? Water, w-with free fruit too?! :D I'll have both!

"CRT's back! Hi!" Derpy gives CRT's wrist a quick hug. "Tank you!" He settles down in the middle of the counter and munches on the donut while letting the latte cool slightly.

I generally grab a couple slices of lemon whenever possible because water's free and lemonade's... not. Also, I hate drinking plain water, even iced.

-awkwardly pats Derpy-

<Isn't my wrist... a little cold?>

>:D It'll also add color to the clear water and taste, hehe! Thank you. ^-^

"Dat's okay...you should get hugs too....unless...you don't want them?"
Derpy looks a little worried.

...

...-bzzts quietly in thanks-

OOC, I don't particularly like hugs, though. Physical contact is, uh, not my thing.

Derpy takes all the information in and thinks for a moment.
"High-five instead? Is that better?"

"Wooooaaaahhhhh! That is cool!"

*respectfully types out something on a mini typewriter with a 'ding' at the end and gives paper to the CRT* -u-
*it reads "This CRT is doing a great job."*

Don't discourage Merskelly from using a typewriter. I'm amazed people these days still know what it is... and it makes me smile whenever someone uses vintage machinery.

typewriters are lovely for the aesthetic, but a pain in the arse if you make a spelling mistake.

True. Or whenever that color band thingy rips apart, which happens occasionally with my old typewriter. Still love it though.

huh. i think my mum had a typewriter at some point.

also, apparently the max amount of tickets you can buy is 25. you have to exit out of the window and buy another 25 if you want 50.

My family used to have both a really old typewriter and also a more modern electric typewriter, which was loud AF, but was good for typing up papers for school before we could afford a computer...as long as you were very careful. It wasn't the best at erasing, so it was easier to just start the whole page over. Otherwise you had to pull the page out, use white-out, then try to get the page back in perfect alignment.

Our family's modern one was decent at erasing, but I still like the really old one better my mom once got me for my birthday - even though it was a pain in the butt to operate, the typed pages would look so much more unique. The modern (which nowadays belongs to my aunt) had a typeface that was almost resembling standard computer font.

We only have an old one |D
Impossible to erase

ouo *changes in new paper and rolls it down continuing the tippy taps on typewriter keys* I have no idea what I'm doing. xD We don't even own a typewriter anymore.

you can get a chromatic typewriter

Ohh perfect! :D I can type letters to those who only understand colors! Like birds, and cars..oh, and octopi! x}

That is so pretty and I want it!
O.o

Don't waste the typewriter on cars xDD

<x) Not even this car?

Never had a typewriter. Or a gramophone. Oooor any record player, actually.

I've never had a gramophone, but we always had a basic record player growing up (usually the kind that was a combo stereo system with a tape deck, radio, and more recently, cd player built in. In fact, I think my dad still has the first one we had when I was really little and it has an 8-track player in it.

But as an adult, I do not own any of that stuff yet. Though I would like to invest in a simple turntable eventually.

Say, I'm just curious how old you are - 30 years old here (1989). Just curious whenever I see people talk about this kind of stuff! :D

Lol. I'm 31.

So fun fact, my dad has always had jobs where he's spent basically the whole day on his feet so when he'd finally sit down at the end of the day his feet would stiffen up and when he'd have to get up, he always sort of limp/hobbled until they relaxed a bit and I thought it was so funny to watch.

But yeah. That happens to me now. Especially if I have bad insoles in my shoes. It's not funny anymore.
