DETAILS

LOUNGE

The cafe serves Japanese, French, and other quality cuisine. As a bakery, it has a specialized selection of baked goods. However, it also has a brilliant array of homemade-style dishes. The fruit, tea, coffee, milk, and alcoholic* drinks are sure to compliment any meal or snack. Although the service is by front counter, the shop's waiters or waitresses are always ready to assist customers. Take-out, gifting, and delivery services are available. The menu changes with the seasons.

* Alcoholic drinks are available only after 6:00 PM and during special occasions or holidays. Minors are not allowed to order these drinks!

	The Honeybee serves both sweet and savory crepes.		Parfaits!
	Breakfast is served from 9 to 11 AM.		A wide selection of pastries are available.
	Cakes and pastries can be for here or to go. The Honeybee specializes in French desserts!		Even the main courses look cute.
	Most beverages come in cute mugs, glasses and cups! They are not available for purchase.		We swear we don't just get recipes off the internet, guys.
	Don't hesitate to ask a barista to draw designs on your drinks. They were trained for that.		The water they serve has a hint of lemon!
	Each cookie is made with love and care, or so they say.		They may not be made from the sweat and tears of underage laborers in third world countries, but you really can't go wrong with the drinks.

STAFF

Anyone who works 6+ hours/day is considered a full-time employee. The average salary per week: $200 - $500. It is rare to get the maximum salary—it won't be a definite $500 each time! ($300 is more common.) Part-timers will never receive full pay. Do not expect to make above $500 per week, unless you get insanely huge tips. What are you, a celebrity?

Aside from their main tasks, everyone has waiter/waitress duties by default. Everyone is also expected to clean up equally. No one's allowed to escape from janitorial duties!

Heads are marked by a crown icon. Juniors/kouhai are apprentices and indicated by a candy icon. They must always be supervised by a senior/senpai.

manager
The shop is owned and operated by an NPC. No one has actually seen the manager's face before!

assistant manager
the team leader and supervisor. responsible for keeping watch that all of the employees are doing their shit right. she also keeps track of accounting and budgeting issues. the one who gets headaches from customer complaints and training employees who can't even use the toaster.

vietnam

p. much the boss; whips everyone. whips even paperwork. tai-chi's perverts out.

chefs, pâttisiers, and bakers
wow, einstein. is this not obvious enough. were you expecting them to resurrect dead animals in the kitchen? aside from cooking duties, they're tasked to align the baked goods unto display counters. this includes the baker's station, the bread shelves, and the establishment's front.

benio/kisshou

very enthusiastic cutie. deserves head pats.

cheria barnes

makes better pies than you. also, she keeps asbel at bay.

gremio

we're all starting to see a pattern in the kitchen. everyone in here is a mother—he's no exception.

lithuania

a mild-mannered, polite one. seems to be one of the most experienced in the kitchen.

ned

a pie-making necromancer. he used to live in a pie.

tatara totsuka

not only great in the kitchen, but his songs can cheer both customers and employees alike.

yuri lowell

a man with silky hair. has extra passion for creating sweet crepes.

baristas
they stir witchcraft into your drinks and summon indescribable slime monsters. your drink was moving? that was just your imagination! aside from adding cute stuff like coffee/cream art, they put on shitty shows like balancing glasses or mixing displays. oh, and "accidentally" spilling hot stuff on their bosses.

if a barista is below legal drinking age, they are not allowed to work with alcoholic drinks! leave that to the qualified baristas, okay, kids?

yamraiha

the one who seduces a dozen men to order a dozen shots... in her dreams.

yue

asks the cutest questions all the time.

vayne aurelius

quiet, cute doormat who is always with a black cat named sulpher. he may easily give in to a request, but try not to overdo it... actually, do it.

front counter duties
the guys with cashier responsibilities. hear that money chime? but really, most of them are either just plain troublemakers or lazy asses who sleep with newspaper on their face. that aside, they handle table check in/out. they also take care of take-outs and gift boxing. and if there's missing money, blame them.

alice

keeps running the curry supplies low. also, gullible. very gullible.

allen walker

look, guys. we do have a sane person at the cashiers.

keeps running the curry supplies low. also, gullible. very gullible.

mikoto suoh

we can never tell if he's still awake or if he's sleep-standing.

rolo lamperouge

likes knives. really likes knives.

delivery handlers
aside from delivering your crap, they handle procurement. procurement involves restocking the bakery and cafe appropriately. they also make sure that the delivery vehicles are fueled properly among other commerce duties. you know, just in case anyone does funny business like run off with the cafe's goods. they'd be ready to chase them down.

if a delivery handler does not have a driving license, then they can use other means of transportation. the delivery van is not required! this means they can ride whatever the hell they want, as long as they get the job done and on time. ride a horse for all we care.

daisuke niwa

a responsible cutie. these sweet little delivery boys!

garry

a nice gentleman. for the sake of getting work done, please don't tell him horror stories.

cute kid that explodes easily. try calling him "misaki" for results.

DETAILS

uniform

guys and reverse traps:
Here. Colors may vary. Optional accessories are fine, such as wearing short/half-length pants instead of full-length ones. Do your own thing!

girls and traps:
Here. Colors may vary. Optional accessories are fine, such as wearing colored stockings. Recommended headgear: frilly hairbands, cute ribbons, or school berets.

other:
Everyone must wear an apron, especially if they're a chef or a barista. There's no dress code for the aprons. Here are some suggestions. Actually, feel free to wear even something like this and be judged forever.

theme and interior

Neo-Japanese/French bakery and cafe. Motifs include honeybees, bears, rabbits, and other cute forest animals. The bakery and cafe's food (example), materials (paper cups, bags, take-out/gift boxes, etc.), and even wallpaper designs are mostly according to theme. Details and samples regarding the interior can be found below.

Façade. Yeah, we love that wall, too.

The main entrance and front counter. Open air dining area. More tables located beside the counter. The cashier's station.

Interior A. The private dining area and the barista's station. Pretend the wallpapers are bears instead.

Interior B. The food glass case and the baker's station.

Interior C. The second floor. More private dining areas. There's books to read, too! Best area to keep kids in. There is also a game machine in the corner — a UFO catcher containing these little guys.

Interior D. The vehicle check-in & supply area and the delivery carrier's station. The door leads to the employee's parking lot. See third image at right!

Interior E. The kitchen and the staff lounge. "Employees Only" areas! More details about the lounge below.

The back. The back entrance of the cafe, what else should we say. There's also an ugly bear sign at the back. it has survived various customer/employee abuse... Kara the ginger cat and her six kittens live here! Please give them love.

LOUNGE

The staff lounge is an exclusive room for employees. It is a room to wind down or to relax for break time. Employees may eat lunch here or play video games until their shift comes up. Killing time while waiting for someone to come pick you up? Or maybe you just wanted a nap? You can stay here for a while. Just don't let Vietnam catch you slacking off.

It says "EMPLOYEES ONLY" but nobody's actually keeping track here. Regular customers may sometimes be seen inside. Kids like Anna Kushina, Ib, and Aladdin are often here, as this is where they wait for their guardians to finish their shift.

This area also has locker rooms, where employees can change in private or simply keep away their personal belongings. There are separate locker rooms for men and women. There's a shower, but it's currently broken.
