The Log:

Crocker finally managed to slip out of the apartment building away from Ryoko and Washu. Of course, this was only a temporary escape. If only he could live on his own, he thought. However, the Spero incident proved something, sighing in distress, Crocker walks into the Cafe Alpha, "Oh, well. At least I can get away from them for a little while. Hello?"

Cube pokes his head out of the kitchen doorway, rubber gloves on. "Oh! Hello~"

The small demon greets Crocker with a light smile. He was merely cleaning in the back. "I hope you weren't waiting very long for me. It's a bit hard to hear from the back room."

[crackpotcrocker]

"No, I wasn't." Before running up to Cube and clinging a bit to him, "Don't let them know I'm here!" With a slight twitch of insanity in his eyes.

"Ehhh?! D-Don't let who know?" Cube's ears droop in concern. Was Crocker being chased by someone? That twitch in his eyes gives the former butler a bad feeling.

"W-What is going on? Are you in danger?"

[crackpotcrocker]

Denzel eyes back at the door, "Ryoko and Washu!... Though Washu can appear out of nowhere but that's besides the point entirely. And - YES! From overly affectionate women!.." Short pause, "Speaking of which I remembered you had a - COFFEE." Slight spazz, "Emergency."

[loyal_cube]

Washu being overly affectionate. That was one way, a kinder way,, to describe her behavior. Cube tries to step back, specially at Crocker's strange yelling habits. Everything about this man seemed broken, from his voice to his appearance. It was hard not feeling bad for him.

However, the demon gladly detours the conversation away from the scary ladies and focuses on the coffee. If Cube can't escape from Crocker's nervous closeness, he might as well pull the man towards the emergency. "Y-yes. Over here."

Cube points to the espresso machine first, "It's timer has been off for some time now. Although it still make espresso, it's taking too long, and therefore the espresso doesn't taste right."

Second, he finds his hand pointing to the actual coffee brewer itself. "If I run this machine, it will continue running and make the pot overflow. I don't know how, but there is entirely too much water no mater what I do."

lastly, Cube points to the coffee grinder. "I've not been able to grind coffee on anything but super fine, which is wonderful if I'm looking to bake something, but the coffee grinds get everywhere, even into the coffee itself that I wish to serve and so, therefore, is no good."

After a moment, he feels as though that might be far too much and nervously fidgets. "I-I'm afraid I d-don't know how to do much about machinery. I'm used to magic, as you... already know." After a gulp, Cube continues, "Do you believe you can help?"

Denzel follows and notice that is Cube for some reason was suddently very nervous. In which, Crocker wonders why before Cube points Denzel to the emergency. As the man follows, Crocker can't help but look over his shoulder to see if Ryoko or Washu was there.

Denzel listens intently to the issues that Cube descibles and you can see the gears working in his head, "I think I can tinker with it." As he pulls out a wrench , pillar and screwdriver from his pants pocket and shirt pocket.

"YES!" Slightly spazzing, "I think I can." Follow with a slight evil nerd chuckle, "What kind of magic, mmm?"
