Welcome to the Cafe House!

It is a week of relaxing, books, and cozy drinks.

<And not just that, there are also art rooms and craft rooms and writing rooms and->

Yes, Celadon, we get the idea.

{And hikes. The House is in a temperate forest with a lake, where the temperature averages seventy-three degrees Fahrenheit.}

Reuby Moonnight sat on a bench, crying over her former AE. The other CBers tried to comfort her, but none really succeeded. Luna decided that maybe banana bread would help, and made her way to the kitchen. 

She was almost there when she heard arguing, between Mahogany and Celadon. She followed the voices until she reached a door that was slightly ajar. Seeing that it was Room III, she poked her head in. The door creaked open and Luna cringed, and sure that she would be reprimanded, she came up with some excuses and defensive remarks to say if needed.

Mahogany turned her head, and said, “Reuby is in Suite III, directly above us. Turning to Celadon, she asked, “Why don’t you make a snack?” With an exaggerated sigh, Celadon walked towards the kitchen. Luna left as well. 

When Luna approached the door, she heard crying from Reuby. Offering the banana bread, she asked Reuby if there was anything else she could help with. Reuby took the banana bread and shook her head.

Avara sat on her bed, legs swinging back and forth. Cora was just staring off into the distance. 

“Who do you think killed Lore?” asked Cora. 

Avara gave a questioning look then came to. “Hush! Reuby’s next door, I don’t want to upset her even more. To answer your question, I have no idea.” 

This was a lie. Avara was strangely very suspicious of Reuby. The logical part of her brain knew that of course Reuby would never kill her AE, but she walked over and locked the suite door anyway. 

Cora looked at Avara questioningly, who responded, “There’s a murderer on the loose. We have to be careful.” 

Cora nodded, but inwardly doubted that a locked door would do much to keep a murderer at bay.

Celadon walked into the kitchen and grabbed the biggest knife they had. She also selected a butternut squash from the fridge. Forget about snacks, she thought, I just want to use a big knife. It wasn’t long before she decided to make a butternut squash pizza.

Furiously chopping the squash, she felt like crying. Years ago, she’d come here in hopes that it would be filled with guests constantly. Now, they had guests for the first time in years and someone was killed on the first day. 

She put the squash in the oven to roast. Now, she started a batch of pizza dough, careful to not knead it too hard. She knew she’d have to leave, but then Mahogany would be left with Zaffre. Awkward, incompetent Zaffre. She shook those accusations away. Zaffre was a wonderful person who just messed up occasionally. Celadon set the dough to rise and put on some classical music.

Reuby was inexplicably furious at Luna. She scolded herself, Luna was a good friend, Luna brought her banana bread. What did Luna ever do to her? Reuby paced her room, after taking a sip of her boba tea a guest had brought her. She didn’t know who, she just heard a knock and saw the boba in front of her door and no trace of who delivered it. 

Suddenly, Reuby was very, very thirsty. She gulped down the rest of her boba, vaguely noticing the metallic taste. 

Reuby was just thinking about how nice of Luna it was to bring her banana bread, when the feelings vanished. She forgot why there were tears on her cheeks. She forgot where she was, who she was. All she remembered was her anger at Luna, and that anger grew and festered.
