Let's continue serving the customers.

The Reverie (Dreamscape)

(Open the Mixing Workbench and start service)

Melancholy: You know, you exude an air of detachment, evoking a profound solitude as if you weren't really here.

Melancholy: I don't know how to establish a connection with you. Your exceptional uniqueness makes me feel inferior.

Melancholy: *sigh* Perhaps this place was never intended for me, yet for fleeting moments, I did experience a glimmer of warmth.

Can you just say something I can understand?

Melancholy: Are my words truly so inscrutable? How heartrending. An impenetrable barrier has formed, dividing us.

My aloofness remains unaltered, even in the face of defeat.

Melancholy: And your hubris is irreparable, beyond any hope of salvation.

Melancholy: *sigh* What's the point of talking about all this useless stuff all day? How about something tangible, like a glass of Drifting Wind. Don't forget to add that pretty decoration on it, thank you.

(Trailblazer): (...What's the decoration for this drink again?)

(Upon making a Drifting Wind)

Melancholy: Heh, how capricious happiness can be! Fleeting as the bubbles dancing upon my glass, it vanishes in the blink of an eye!

Melancholy: Are you... new here?... Are you going to bully me? Where is Siobhan? Have you ousted her?

Melancholy: Behold, within this spacious lounge, a seasoned drinksmith finds no place to dwell, much like this grand hotel within the Dreamscape... where I struggle to find my niche. O, where shall my tender, melancholic soul find its abode?

I'm just here to lend a hand.

Melancholy: I see. You're abandoned too, right? So pathetic, just like me.

Yeah, I'm the successor of this lounge!

Melancholy: I should just stop daydreaming and snap out of it. I should have known better that we don't deserve something so great.

Melancholy: *sigh* Sure, Siobhan is great at mixing drinks, but given the location, it's only natural that the lounge remains deserted and unattended.

Melancholy: What's the point of being a drinksmith here? There are no customers, no revenue, much like those unwanted concert tickets.

Melancholy: And when the curtains are raised, you step onto the stage, only to be faced with a mere handful of people in the audience... It's truly disheartening.

Melancholy: Perhaps this lounge will go out of business soon.

...Why are you saying that?

Melancholy: I don't know why, but it's just a feeling I have. I'm unable to see its future, and I struggle to accept its present.

Don't say that! Those words won't bring any luck!

Melancholy: Is it trying to bully me? That's how it feels. I'm unable to see its future, and I struggle to accept its present.

Melancholy: Eh, might as well have a few more while I'm here. Please give me a glass of something that exudes brokenness and is very refreshing. And add the decoration of Miss Robin to it, thank you.

---

(Trailblazer): (Interesting. This is the first time I've met a customer who cares so much about the decorations.)

(Start preparing the drink)

Attempt to do a flair with the glasses.

*crash*... The glass shatters to pieces on the ground. Looks like your skills could use some work.

(Start preparing the drink)

---

Give me something that feels vulnerable, but very refreshing, and put one of those Miss Robin decorations in it.

---

• Flavor Base: Broken
  • Slightly bitter ( -1)
  • Strong ( 1)
  • Stir
• Very refreshing ( ≤ -2)
• Miss Robin's ornament

(After serving a wrong drink)

Melancholy: A mistake you're aware of is not a mistake - it's a choice. You don't have to speak, because I already know your thoughts.

---

(After serving the right drink)

Melancholy: Hah! Happiness is an elusive treasure, one that needs cherishing, but I drank it all in a single gulp!

Melancholy: *sigh* Following the bliss, boundless emptiness once more consumes me.

Melancholy: It's time to leave the stage. Surely someone with a life as fulfilling as yours won't even remember me.

Melancholy: May we meet again where there is light.

(Trailblazer): (Melancholy is melancholic just like its name — such a pessimistic personality.)

Lady: ...Hello, there? My friend told me there's a new drinksmith here. That must be you, right?

Lady: Hee-hee, just as I thought, you seem like a fascinating person to chat with.

Lady: In that case, let me ask you a secret question... Did a melancholy customer just leave?

I think so...

Lady: I knew it! Oh, my timing is perfect. Thankfully, I'm not running into him head-on... Phew.

Lady: You had a nice chat, right? Don't you find his demeanor special? I mean, the kind of... detachment and iffy vibe! The kind of solitude you'd expect from a genius! It's just fascinating!

He's indeed melancholic.

Lady: I'm not talking about his looks. Don't you find his demeanor special? I mean, the kind of... detachment and iffy vibe! The kind of solitude you'd expect from a genius! It's just fascinating!

Lady: Ahem... talking about this topic makes me feel all flushed. Please make me a drink.

Lady: Hmm. I'll just order this Chewing Gum, with a little more ice, so I can cool down my internal cathode-ray tubes.

(Trailblazer): (...Alright, I should add some more ice cubes.)

(Upon making a Chewing Gum)

Lady: A tantalizing taste, indeed. You must be a seasoned drinksmith who can easily grasp your customers' preferences!

Lady: By the way, you've only been here for a short while. I wonder if you've noticed that... things aren't very peaceful outside the lounge?

Lady: It worries me, too. I've always felt something creepy lurking deep within the hotel in the Dreamscape, but if I want a quiet place, there's not much of an alternative.

Lady: ...It's so frustrating. I can't find a good spot for a date.

Why not have your date right here in the lounge?

Lady: No way! There are too many acquaintances here, and customers could walk in any minute. It's too embarrassing!

How about in the Golden Hour?

Lady: Oh, you don't know? A bunch of guys in black suits are guarding the front gate, and we can't step out of this place.

Lady: After some thoughts, the depths of this hotel seem like the best option... as long as I don't go too far, right?

Who's the lucky person you're dating?

Lady: Hee-hee, it's a secret. However, if we get to know each other better, I might spill the beans.

Are you going to ask me out on a date?

Lady: Hehe, I'd love to, but let's not rush things. We've just met, after all.

Are you dating Siobhan?

Lady: Heh, trying to peer into Siobhan's love life, huh?

Lady: Siobhan is so attractive and kind, and everyone wants to date her. I was interested too and asked her out a few times, but got rejected. So, I had to find someone else.

Lady: Well, it seems you enjoy discussing embarrassing topics. It's making me a bit flustered, to be honest.

Lady: Give me another drink to cool me down some more. This time, I want something dreamy and super thick! And like before, I want more ice, or my circuits are gonna fry.

(Trailblazer): (...Would it be more effective if I just place ice cubes on her head?)

(Start preparing the drink)

Remove the glass from the ice cube pool.

You love the touch of a chilled glass. It can prevent you from being overly irate when dealing with certain customers.

(Start preparing the drink)

This time, I want something that's dreamy and super strong! And put more ice in it.

• More ice
• Flavor Base: Dreamy
  • Slightly sweet ( 1)
  • Strong ( 1)
  • Stir
• Very thick ( ≥ 2)

(After completing the order)

Lady: You're a perfect drinksmith, so skilled and caring! This was a great experience.

Lady: It was nice talking to you. In my opinion, you're almost as great a drinksmith as Siobhan. Impressive, indeed.

Lady: I'll drop by next time! Please look forward to my arrival!

(Trailblazer): (She's probably just easily embarrassed... Lady is probably the most normal among all the monsters that you've come in contact with so far?)

Tin Man: ...Hey.

Tin Man: Hey, come closer. Let's keep this just between us... Did a customer in red come just now?

What did you say? I can't hear you!

Tin Man: H-hey! Keep your voice down! What if she hears it!?

She asked a similar question just now.

Tin Man: ...Huh!? Oh... I see...

Tin Man: I followed her right to the door of this lounge and watched her come out, so don't try to fool me. What did she talk to you about? And did she mention my name?

She mentioned a melancholic customer.

She mentioned Siobhan.

Tin Man: That's typical. All the monsters here are fond of Siobhan, but except for me, of course! Hmph, I'm not afraid of her at all.

Tin Man: ...Did she mention anyone else...? I mean, any other monsters?

She mentioned a melancholic customer.

Tin Man: I knew it, I knew it! She just can't get enough of that blasted poet! Is his pretentious literary accent so fascinating that she's still holding onto it?

Tin Man: Well, forget it. It's not worth getting worked up about such nonsense! Just do your job and get me a drink.

Tin Man: I want something in a large glass that is a little bitter and with pretty colors. You know what "pretty" means? It means to separate the layers more clearly. Don't make it all cloudy like dishwashing water!

(Trailblazer): (...He's still so fixated on layering colors.)

(Start preparing the drink)

---

This time, I want something that's dreamy and super strong! And put more ice in it.

---

• Large
• Slightly bitter ( -1)
• Two color layers

(After completing the order)

Tin Man: Ha! That's more like it! Not many people can satisfy me. Now, I'm slightly impressed with you.

Tin Man: Oh, hey, I just remembered something. Were you rude to me the last time I came here?

Tin Man: And did I say... I'd teach you a lesson?

No, you remembered it wrong.

(Get ready to pull out your baseball bat.)

Tin Man: Hey, chill out. I thought about it, and I realized I was a bit too aggressive, and there might be some kind of misunderstanding.

Tin Man: I apologize for that, and I hope we can be on better terms. So you see, next time that guest comes around, could you put in a good word for me? No need for flattery. Just mention my name more often!

Tin Man: You'll do me this small favor, won't you?

Well, it depends on my mood.

Tin Man: Think about it: it's beneficial for you too. If you make me happy, I'll drop by more often, and you'll recieve more tips.

What's in it for me?

Tin Man: You see, if you make me happy, I'll drop by more often, and you'll receive more tips.

Tin Man: A great deal, isn't it? You get paid, and I get served. A win-win situation for both of us.

Tin Man: Everyone in this lousy lounge takes orders from me! What's the point of mixing drink all the time? Stay on my side, and I'll ensure you a happy life!

I refuse.

My idea is...

Tin Man: Nobody refuses my offers, because I'm always right.

I refuse.

Tin Man: ...You! You have no idea what's good for you!

Tin Man: I shouldn't have expected anything from a lowly waiter! Making drinks is the only thing you're good for!

Tin Man: Give me something in an extra large glass, very sweet, and tastes super intense. And it's gotta have pretty layers! I'm not paying if any of my criteria are not met!

(Trailblazer): (Do you think I'd let you leave without paying?)

(Start preparing the drink)

Move the mixer first.

Tin Man: Hmph, nothing but fluff and flash. Pretty on the outside, useless otherwise!

(Trailblazer): (I don't think you're in a position to say this?)

(Start preparing the drink)

Give me an extra large, super sweet, super intense-tasting drink. And I want pretty layers!

---

• Extra Large
• Very sweet ( ≥ 2)
• Very strong ( ≥ 2)
• Three color layers

Tin Man: Hmph, not bad, but this is not the end. You'll need to serve me until I leave this lounge.

Tin Man: Well... I've calmed down a bit. I've almost finished my drink, but I'm not done talking. How long are you intending to work at this lounge? How long do I have to wait if I don't want to see your face again?

Until the day this lounge shuts down.

Whenever you come, I'll be here.

Tin Man: The very thought of talking to you annoys me. Tsk, fine! I'll show you how to be competent attendant!

Tin Man: Meet me there when you're done! I'll be waiting!

(Trailblazer): (It's still being so rude to me.)

(Trailblazer): (But I learnt a lot about Tin Man through our chat. It should be willing to be honest with me now.)
