Welcome to Stardust, may I take your order?

Scarlett: *from back of the ship* Okay, let's get it right this time. Nice, orderly line. Oh crap-

*running footsteps*

Scarlett: Hi there, can I get a medium triple-shot skinny french vanilla machiato? And um... sorry, we have a group here-

*calm yet confused footsteps*

Auri: large green tea latte with... *sigh*... almond milk.

*shuffle of an arm wrapping around shoulders*

Kal: *to Auri* Proud of you, Be'shmai.

Kal: *turns back to speaker* Coffee, please.

.....this is a Stardust. You'll need to be more specific.

Kal: ........hot, black, bitter liquid. In a cup. Please.

One Syldrathi^ coming up.

*awkward footsteps*

Tyler: *in hushed tones* I'm not gonna ask for-

Scarlett: *in the back of the ship* Tyler Jones, ask for what you actually want to drink and stop being a baby about it. No one will think less of you!

Tyler: *sigh* A strawberry lemonade, please?

Would you like that in the kids collectible cup?

Tyler: I am NOT A KID-

*diplomatic shove*

Finian: -uh he wants a medium for that. And could I get a chocolate hazelnut frappuccino with extra fudge swirls and a shot of the vanilla cupcake syrup? Large. Like really large. ....oh! And put like 4 shots of espresso in that for me. It's gonna be a long night.

Zila: *quietly next to him* Finian you do realise we are on vacation? There are no tasks or pressing matters to complete tonight.

Finian: *mutters* I have like six seasons of anime to watch before my membership expires. I've been awake for DAYS-

Zila: *to microphone* I would like a small cup of peppermint tea, as well as a plain toasted bagel with butter and grape jelly.

*door slams*
*running footsteps*

Saedii: *breathing hard* I forgot! Is there still time?!
*leans head out of the window*
THE ORDER IS NOT YET COMPLETE! I REQUIRE SUSTENANCE!!!

Scarlett: *from the comms room* Saedii stop shouting, you're fine! Tell them what you want.

Saedii: oh. Um, I want.... ...... uhhhhhhh.......

Saedii: One chai tea latte, extra cinnamon. And do you sell the rings of sweet dough?
