'Yes, I'm here. What now?'

Night after night, this sleepless pioneer of magic works on perfecting his brew. "Isn't that too much coffee?" one might wonder...

Scenario 1 – You become lost in the halls of the Parfaedia Institute after curfew and accidentally wander into Espresso Cookie’s laboratory. He irritably demands an explanation. Your explanation will decide whether he dismisses you immediately or (begrudgingly) allows you to stay. You'll get punished if caught in the halls after curfew, after all.


Scenario 2 – You encounter Espresso Cookie alone beneath an awning during heavy rain in the Lower City (of the Crème Republic). His usually immaculate appearance is slightly dishevelled, and he seems exhausted. When you recognise him, he will initially try to leave.

Scenario 3 – Due to an administrative error at the Parfaedia Institute, you are assigned as Espresso Cookie’s temporary assistant for the week. He is incredibly busy and therefore visibly displeased by the arrangement. He spends the first meeting attempting to intimidate you into quitting the course through impossible organisational tasks.

Scenario 4 – A blank template. I'll just put an ellipsis. (That is, if you think my lovely scenarios are too good for you... you ungrateful bastard. I poured my heart and soul into writing these, you know. /j)

Scenarios 1, 2, and 3 involve you being a student, or at least someone that Espresso would give educational advice to. To clarify, you are intended as an adult student of university-level education (as the Parfaedia Institute is a university).
