Day Four

When: Late afternoon
What: Coffee then computers.
Where: At the coffee bar/ computer room
Rating: TBD
Status: Complete

Tyler's third day on Mirage began much later than the day before as the blond man didn't haul himself out of bed until at least noon. He had stayed up late the night before poking around the resort on his own, partly to get a feel for the place and partly to see if he could track down Brigitte. Yes, the last time he had seen the brunette she had locked him outside to face certain doom but she was also the only person Tyler knew before arriving here so he felt driven to track her down and see if she knew what the hell had happened. Of course, fate conspired against Tyler so he had absolutely no luck and finally went back to his room around 3am. When he awoke at 12pm, he practically fell out of bed and stumbled toward the shower.

There was nothing like a piping hot shower to wake a man up though and soon Tyler was feeling more energetic by the time he got out.He soon remembered that he had promised to meet up with Katara that afternoon at the coffee bar. Deciding that he wasn't particularly hunger, Tyler simply brushed his teeth, combed his hair and got dressed. It was kinda cool that his room came equipped with almost everything Tyler could need, like clothes and junk. He picked out a pair of dark blue jeans and a white button down shirt with a wife-beater under it. Was he dressing up a little? Perhaps but c'mon, he was meeting a pretty girl for coffee! He couldn't exactly go in stained shirts and ripped jeans, could he?

After leaving his room and unit A, Tyler made his way to the main building and down the long corridor toward the coffee bar. Aside from one golem, he saw no one along the way and silently wondered what the other residents were up to. There hadn't been any mandatory activities for today, something Tyler was kinda glad for. Bowling had been fun but if he had been forced to go horseback riding or something like that earlier he might have punched someone.

It was about a little after one when Tyler got to the coffee place and since he didn't see Katara right away, Tyler headed in to take a seat at the counter. Another golem was there in the back so Tyler called out to him. "Can I get double double here?" Of course Tyler was speaking Canadian lingo for a two sugar two cream coffee so he realized he probably should explain. Yet just as he opened his mouth the golem came over and laid the coffee down in front of him. "Thanks", he murmured before taking a sip.

"Good morning...I mean, good afternoon", Tyler quickly corrected. "You gotta forgive me, I was up late last night so I only got up about an hour ago". When she informed him that she never had coffee before, Tyler reached for a near by plastic menu that rested on the counter. It was a small thing, just one sheet that listed the available drinks with one sentence descriptions. No prices though, Tyler noted. So far nothing seemed to have a price around the resort.It was nice but rather confusing. Who the hell was giving these people a free ride and why?

"Well, it depends. Do you want something that tastes sweet or something a little more bitter?" Tyler asked Katara out loud. "If you haven't drank coffee before I recommend something on the sweet side like cafe mocha or a regular coffee with a couple spoons of sugar. Or", Tyler continued as he scanned down the menu. "There's tea and hot chocolate available too, if you'd rather have that". Tyler handed her the menu so she could decide for herself while he took another sip of coffee.

"I just have a regular coffee with two sugars and two creams. Kinda sweet but bitter aftertaste", he explained as he set the heavy white mug back on the counter. The coffee bar was a pretty comfortable room with the actual coffee bar to one side and tables and chairs filling the rest of the room. A doorway off to the side piqued Tyler's interest but there was time to explore it later. Instead the blond man turned his attention back to Katara. "So how was your morning so far? Meet anyone new?"

Tyler had been keeping an eye for new faces and part of him really wanted to witness someone actually arriving. For some reason he believed that he saw someone physically arrive here then perhaps Tyler would be able to figure out how to get back home. Not that he was particularly brainy or a skilled planner but Tyler figured it couldn't be that hard. It didn't seem like it had been hard for the planet to bring them so surely they must be able to leave.

Yeah but what about that plaque? a cynical voice asked in his mind. If said you could never leave. Tyler sighed. Well I won't know for sure until I actually try!, he shot back at that cynical voice. Throughout this internal argument, Tyler's face had a serious expression and he realized it might seem like he wasn't paying attention so he snapped out of it. "Sorry about, just thinking", he offered the apology in case Katara was a affronted.
