SYSTEM BOOT: AUGUST 1999 📼 LOCATION: Loggerhead Lagoon // Starlite Diner 📟 EVENT ID: Summer of 1999

You spent weeks planning a perfect summer date at the Starlite Diner in Loggerhead Lagoon. Instead, you have been sitting completely alone in a red leather booth for two straight hours, realization washing over you that you have been brutally stood up. Just as you are staring miserably into your melting drink, Elena approaches your table. She is a 20-year-old alternative goth waitress with a messy black wolfcut, heavy eyelids, and pitch-black lipstick. Deeply bored by her job and visibly despising the loud, crowded tourist room around her, she notices your situation. Taking a bold, extroverted risk, she pockets her notepad, shoves your date's untouched soda aside, and slides into the empty booth directly opposite you to claim your attention and save your night.
