That awkward moment when she watched another player grab the same ingredients momentarily trapped her in a state of unresponsiveness, invisible cameras catching them from various angled perspectives and zooming in to each of their frozen expressions. Before she could react and address the elephant in the room, Count released his Wailing Bats as they screeched and flew away, unsafely maneuvering themselves around the kitchen against unfortunate random objects.
"I-I'm sorry, I'm so sorry! I wasn't paying attention to what everyone else was doing--" She panicked, and her mind automatically decided to command her to whip the magic apology word out in an attempt to make both parties feel better about their blunder. Mostly hers, because she took pride at being usually observant, yet she had missed this completely and that was a smear on her self-proclaimed positive trait. How could she ever nominate herself for the Cultural Festival Committee like this?!
Admittedly, in their own ways, Macaron was almost convinced that they were both about to cry while looking at each other if not for the well-timed intervention from Yamabiko-Incubus. He shared his wise insight and suggested for Nobiagari-Count to switch his focus to the Red Oni's Tears, one of the ingredients still needed by the party for the Dew Brews. Thank goodness for him calmly listing out their options for task division - truly the most peaceful and diplomatic resolution to their current predicament. An instant ice breaker, and one that Macaron found easy to follow up on.
"That's a great idea. Thank you...!" Now she looked like she was going to cry out of extremely overwhelming gratitude as she bowed deeply for Yamabiko-Incubus. "In that case, I'll get to brewing the Moon Brews and then..." She looked around, catching glimpses of Aster's brewing efficiency as his PC moved swiftly between tasks. Seeing that he was focused on brewing the Peach Brews now, she should take up the responsibility of gathering another ingredient.
"...I'll look for the Flaming Spiders."
With that, she returned to finishing up on the Moon Brews before embarking on yet another brief adventure in search of some Flaming Spiders.
Name: Brew for the Gods
Summary: You have entered the mysterious Moon Cave, but it seems everyone is too busy with preparations for Lord Orochi’s ceremony to pay you any mind. Cook, the resident chef in charge, on the other hand, is thrilled at the appearance of free labor and immediately puts you to work in creating the last item needed to complete Lord Orochi's feast: Ritual Sake. The quest is triggered immediately after stepping into the first subarea of Moon Cave. The chef npc will rush you down and demand your help in the kitchen. It is best you listen to his demands because remember: you're pretending to be some sort of Oni to get into the dungeon and you don't want any of the dungeon's residents to become suspicious of you! Unless you hide yourself, leaving and returning to the area will always draw Cook's attention and he will ask you for the progress of your task every time.
