| Eastside (Coffee Shop AU) |
A street gang and Starbucks, what's not to love!! They definitely work at a Coffee shop in a suspicious alleyway somewhere, but make some of the best coffee in town. Eric's the manager, and hes the type of manager that doesn't care as long as you look like your working. Various middle aged woman have called the cops on him, mostly cause his brain is tiny and doesn't have the paitents to do anything them tell them to fuck off. The sentence "can I speak to the manager?" makes him want to punch a wall. Memphis is the favourite, by both corporate and customers alike. He's incredibly charismatic, and it lends him well with the women. However, he's more interested in 80s band on their shirt then their tits. Corp like him cause he's simply good at his job. Shanes is trying really hard to be like Memphis. Not with the ladies, he couldn't care less, he's more preoccupied with figuring out how Memphis makes the little faces in the lattes. It genuinely upsets him that he can't figure it out, that he's been outsmarted by Memphis of all people. Hes not very much loved by customer, he's quite frigid and won't server you if you don't say please. Jay, on the other hand, loves the customers. He's racking but a pile of numbers he's collected and displays them like they're trophies. He sucks at making coffee, and has been banned from making hot drinks for reasons the court says he's not to talk about. He man's the milkshakes, and frequently gets the orders wrong, but he always gets away with it cause he's a ginger and looks 12. Craig, for the lack of a better word, hates his job. He hated to people and he hates coffee, he's only here to support his kitten. He's like one of those edgy teenagers that work at 711, but 22 and has a mortgage. Markus is the new recruit, having the Coffee shop be his first job. He gets stuck with janitorial duties most of the time, but every now and the Memphis sneaks him in to the kitchen and teaches him how to make iced coffees. Markus is good at his job, and Eric has a soft spot for him, so turns the other way when he catches him stealing a milkshake from Jays reject pile. Legally, Dennis and Jack can't work yet, so they often skip school to sit in the shop and play pokemon together, or simply talking. They're Jays favourite customers, complementing his milkshakes even if he gets the wrong milk. They usually show up to watch Markus work, or to piss Shane off by purposely pronouncing Pokemons names incorrectly. Sleepys there too! He usually huddles up in the corner of the shop and stares blankly out the window. Dennis goes to sit with him sometimes, but they never really speak. Most of the workers are scared of him, despite being twice his size, do they just let's him sit there. Jay hates him, cause something he'll slip a piece of paper to him asking for a chocolate milkshake with extra sauce. Jay still hasn't figured out what sauce he means. Then there's Colton, who doesn't work at the Coffee shop, nor frequents as a customer. He works for grubhub and everyone hates him. He's done nothing wrong, but they just don't like him. Sometimes Memphis talks to him, trying to ease the tension, but the glares from his coworkers throw the mood. Once he accidentally dropped a coffee and Eric near beat the shit out of him.
