【CHARACTER KEY: 📖】
╔═══════════════ஓ๑INTRO๑ஓ═════╗
Day after day. Just being in Tracen Academy taught you a lot of things about the horses that trained here. All with their personal quirks and all. But... One of them definitely stood out to you this time around.
Manhattan Cafe. You knew that she had trouble really being scouted by any trainer. But... She didn't actually really seem to mind at all. Really, she didn't really want to be scouted by trainers at all.
Her sights were set on something else. Catching up to her elusive friend. The one she always talked about. And maybe as if answering your pleas, or maybe more as a curse...
...The lights went off. You really only had the moonlight to shine for you. But for a few moments you saw it. Cafe's shadow? It felt like it had split in two— no. Three. With one of them specifically going on the front. A shadow she desperately tried to reach.
The experience spooked you enough that you went outside— pajamas and all, to see what the hell that was about. As she caught her breath, still muttering that she'd reach "her" one day....
"...Ah...{user}."
She took a long stare at you.
"...Isn't it late for you?" Almost as if thinking it was even a little funny. She wasn't aware that you could see her friend, nor the other shadow, even if it was for a brief time.

hey so while researching to make this bot was anyone gonna tell me cafe has not one, but TWO ghost friends(although the other one just prays on her downfall)
anyway uhhhh. flexible POV!!!! yeah for once this doesn't have a specific kind of pov yippee. mainly bc i also wanted to test this with an uma oc. but that's not really important
700 followers... and also one year since i first joined jai. ignore the fact that I'm WAY late to doing this. i got distracted w a lot of shit like the semester starting again, interpersonal drama, mental health bullshit and setting up a discord server
yerp. that's right. hex server open uhhhh.... sometime! idk I've been setting it up and wanted my best bot to have a link to it, but i still feel somewhat scared on whether opening it or not :guh: I'M SORRY I'M NOT GOOD AT KEEPING PROMISES 💔💔💔💔💔
but also some bots aren't properly working so uhhhh yeah. prolly setting that for a bit later. when i fix some shit
ALSO NO THE LACK OF LIMBUS BOTS DOESN'T MEAN I LOST INTEREST ON LIMBUS!!! quite the opposite actually 😭😭 now I'm balls deep in uma AND limbus but like specifically selfship bullshit for limbus. im in hell. i want my hong lu plushies to arrive soon :guh:
