Beaux entered through the door of Estelle’s Bakery, home of the claimed “best desserts in all of Era!”. A little bell rang out pleasantly above his head, the clear notes echoing around the little shop. A few customers sat at tables in the space, giving him a glance as he entered. The Rune Knight admired the bakery’s interior. A glass case lined one side of the counter. Inside it were shelves filled with desserts of all kinds - platters of brownies, jars of cookies, whole pies. Beaux found himself nearly drooling at the sight.
The angel was a regular at this particular bakery. He definitely vouched for their claim of being the best bakery in town. Coming from Napedia, a culture where baking was cherished almost as much as money, he was a fiend for pastries. The day after he got settled into the Rune Knights, Beaux had gone to explore Era and satisfy his craving for a good macaron. This was the first place he had encountered and loved it from the moment he stepped in.
Behind the counter, a young woman waved enthusiastically. “Hi Beaux!” she cheered as he approached the glass cases she stood behind. “Bonjour, Elisa!” Beaux replied, his signature charming smile crossing his face. The angel loved making connections with locals and he and Elisa had bonded the moment they met. He considered her a friend already.
“Can I get you the usual?” she asked, already grabbing a plate.
“I’m here for a different reason,” Beaux said, putting his hands out to stop her, but changing his mind. “Actually, I will take my usual to go!” he said with a laugh.
“Got it!” Elisa replied, bustling around behind the cases for a moment. She produced a paper bag that Beaux took and stuffed in his jacket pocket. A few jewel were taken from his pocket and handed back to her.
“I accepted a job flyer about a cake delivery, do you know of it?” he queried, leaning an elbow on the glass case.
“I do. The one for the little boy’s birthday?”
“That’s the one!”
“It’s all ready to go. Eeee I’m so excited!” Elisa squealed, wiping her hands on her apron. “This kid is gonna love the cake so much, I just know it.”
“I can’t wait to see it!” Beaux said with a grin. The cake was for a little boy whose 10th birthday was today. His parents had custom ordered a special cake from Estelle’s Bakery. Apparently the boy was a huge fan of the Rune Knights. Thus, the parents had reached out to the headquarters and requested that the cake be delivered by a few of the Knights themselves! As soon as he saw the job notice, Beaux knew it was right up his alley, not to mention an excuse to go get himself a pastry. He had accepted it without hesitation.
“Is it just you doing this job?” Elisa asked, preparing a receipt to go with the cake.
“Non, I’m waiting on another Rune Knight,” Beaux explained. Upon accepting the job, he had decided to invite someone along. Being the socialite he was, Beaux had reached out to a new Knight, Kyra Forte. Only recently had she joined and was part of the Engineering Corps. He hadn’t had the chance to meet her yet and was thrilled at the opportunity. Making friends - or at the least, acquaintances - was something he had always enjoyed.
“Perfect! I’ll go get the cake ready while we wait,” Elisa replied, disappearing into the kitchen. Beaux took a seat at the nearest table. He found himself looking out the window to the street and watching the people go by, letting his mind wander.
