(THERE IS A LARGE PILLAR AT AN AWKWARD ANGLE TAKING UP A GOOD PORTION OF THE ROOM)

Forgot to mention that we're just temporarily in this space til our new one is ready, but it's ok bc it's just two buildings away so i can still go to the coffee shop 😹

THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I RETURN TO MY NATURAL HABITAT (THE COFFEE SHOP)

I might have unintentionally had a breakthrough in my story planning

I do quite like this coffee shop; gonna miss coming here at random times in the afternoon

Currently:
• two men doing bible study
• barista who is still on shift(?) but sitting with their fellow goth/punk/leather jacket-wearing friends who are planning Something
• businessman in a suit next to me

Just watched a Heated Rivalry edit set to a Red Velvet song and then realized it's on the official account
