The cafe owner turns around and asks warmly with a cheery smile ‘Did you want those pastries after all? They’re still warm so if you want them, be my guest!’
Don clasps his hands together “No need sir. I simply wanted to fairly introduce myself. I have been here before and truly enjoy this place, so it only seems fair. My name is Don Lucci.” He steps close and whispers “And I can smell a stand user a mile away.”
The owner smiles but then the colour drains from his face as Lucci mentions Stands. He speaks slowly and says ‘You are a good paying customer, so it is only fair I introduce myself, as you have to me. I am Vietato Scatola, but I am known as Vie. This Stand you speak of…is that the power my Pandora Palace grants me? And…’ He loosens the collar of his uniform nervously, ‘you do not wish me any harm, do you not?’ Vie may have been imagining it, but he was sure one of the men at the table outside said the word ‘mercenary’. He prepares to animate a cleaver in the kitchen in case of a struggle.
Don puts his hand on his should and gives him a calm face, trying to ease the man’s worries “I do not seek to cause you any harm. If I did I would have shown you as much. I enjoy your business and your coffee.” He checks his pocket watch with his other hand “Would you like to work for me? The other person I asked to help me with coffee most recently has seemingly disappeared.”
Vie gives a nervous chuckle and says ‘W..why of course sir, it would be an honour to lend my services to you! I assure you, my coffee is the greatest in all of town!’ And as if like clockwork, a steaming hot mug whizzes straight into Vie’s hand, which he passes to Lucci. The pattern in the foam is the face of a clock, not too unlike Lucci’s pocket watch. Vie simply says ‘Your refill, free of charge. Come back any time!’
[Forgot that Ciano was meant to do Lucci’s coffee lmao, guess that doesn’t matter anymore lol. Also, I got really lazy with Vie’s name, it’s literally just Forbidden Box in Italian (cos it’s Pandora’s Palace, get it?) ]
[I agree, he’s not very interesting, maybe give him a quirk or something to make him stand out and add a bit of body language like his pose or expression within your posts rather than just a straight answer. That’ll make them seem much more intriguing]

*Nice reference.* Lucci shakes his head “Calm down, you don’t have to be afraid. I love the foam details. You have need to be nervous, I won’t tell anyone anything about what you have. I consider us friends.” He sips the coffee and smiles “Perfect. Just like expected.”
Vie's chuckle becomes a full laugh, and he says 'Yes, I see now that I have nothing to fear, it's nice to meet someone that appreciates my talent. Thank you for your business and kindness, I look forward to each of your visits.' He then asks inquisitively 'Does your friend outside want anything? He's yet to order and if you'd ask me, I'd say he seems a bit lost.'
"killing, stealing, and spying are fine, depending on the details. anything else isnt really my forte, but if it pays good, it has the same conditions as normal."

Don’s face softens “I don’t know, he seems to be held within his own mind. He doesn’t seem to want anything nor does he seem to wish to converse.” He finishes the coffee and gives him the money for it “I am going to be changing locations soon, is it possible you could bring this place with you in some way?”
"killing, stealing, and spying are fine, depending on the details. anything else isnt really my forte, but if it pays good, it has the same conditions as normal."
“Then I would like you kill someone who goes by the name Fellini. 10,000 for the job.”

Vie nods. 'Yes, I can set up shop where ever and whenever you wish, just pop by and I'll transfer Pandora Palace to any vacant lot nearby.'

He grins “Wonderful. I wish I could tell you my plans but I don’t want to risk your life.”
Vie laughs at the comment as if it's a joke, but something tells him it's more serious than he thinks. Either way, it's none of his business, all he's needed for is making coffee, so he'll stay out of whatever unusual activities Lucci might be up to. He then checks the time, and gives a swirling movement with his apron. Almost immediately, a multitude of things happen. The bills that Don had given Vie fly into the cash register, which opens just as quickly as it closes. A business card with phone numbers and all the other addresses of the four other Pandora Palaces in town also neatly lands in Lucci's pocket. The tables wipe themselves clean and the kitchen seems to collapse in on itself, going from an enormous multi-oven work station fit for a top class restaurant, to a singular wash basin. Vie then says. 'I'll be closing shop soon, but don't hesitate to visit after hours if you're in need of me. Can't expect you're too much of a night person though, are you, since all that coffee will keep you up till sunrise!'

Don laughs at what he says, shaking his head knowingly "I may just be more of a night person than you know." He enters the number into his phone and places Vie's name there. He then leaves his own business card, revealing what he does and what he is for if Vie wants to know along with a card for where he is currently staying and plans on going. He then waves his friend goodbye and goes out into the streets of Italy.

Fellini is strolling through the streets, looking bored. His pig is on a leash that he’s holding and Crazy Train is not currently out.
