[open] open for business
Who: Dante & generous patrons (aka YOU)
When: Throughout January
Where: Thorne
What: Dante's Pizza Cart is officially OPEN!
Warnings: Cringe
[ Since he first discovered these amazing powers, he's been trying to pump up his future customer base inside the Castle with free samples of the world's most perfect dish. That's taken a lot of hard work, mostly in the reminding himself he needs to get up and do it sort, but he believes that he's finally garnered enough of a reputation amongst the Summoned and castle staff to take it out to the masses...
To spread the Good Word of Pizza.
It's taken a small lone because, upon it's purchase, Dante hasn't done anything worthy of coin. That's not to say he's been entirely useless--far from it! He's taken part in the necessary ventures of the other Summoned and tried to make sure that no humans were being harmed. But that doesn't exactly pay, does it? Not when the Castle provides so much. But every shop needs a proper shop front, so Dante begins with a simple wooden cart
Unassuming though it may be, there is a wooden sign hanging from one side, writ in a surprisingly neat and practiced cursive, that reads:
Devil Made Pies (symbol of the Devil Arcana on the side)
The First & Only Pizzeria in Thorne
On the cart, several large pizza pies are laid out on a mix of wooden and ceramic plates, most with recognizably classic toppings...for anyone familiar with the art. Beside said cart stands Dante, and depending on the day and hour, he's either looking proud and passingly charming or like he's ready for a nap.
one. no work and all naps
In fact, you may find him sleeping on the job at random hours, propped up next to the cart and leaving his wares free for anyone to sample. A note that says "take one" stacked up next to the pies.
So help yourself! Or maybe wake up the supposed shop keep who may be completely out of his product.
two. hi billy mayes here
At other times, he's definitely on shift and calls out to passersby in a theatrical fashion-- ]
Are you looking for something to pick you up during these brisk winter days and long and dark winter nights? A balm for the body...
[ He places both hands above his heart. ]
And the soul?
[ With a twinkle of mirth in his eyes, he pickssomeone you out of the crowd, pointing directly. ]
You there! You look like a Paragon of the Palate. Step on up.
three. could use a few yelp reviews
[ Or maybe you already know this guy and are wondering what he's doing standing around in the cold with a cart full of carbs and cheese. ]
Being a man of business isn't easy.
[ He's definitely not dressed for the weather. ]

They're all the same and different. Bread, cheese, sauce, bits on top.
[ how are you supposed to choose one? river looks thoroughly enchanted when she looks up to dante from her place squatted low to the ground. ]
Do you have a favorite?
no subject
The same base, but with just enough variety to cause great divides.
[ God forbid he bring up the quandary of whether pineapples belong on pizza. ]
I'm a fan of the classic pepperoni and mushroom. The right combination of savory from both and the split between the light spice of the pepperoni to the earthy undertones of the mushroom.
[ He makes a "chef's kiss" motion. ]

That sounds good. I would try one, if I can. But she hasn't got any coin.
no subject
Dante purses his lips, feigning some serious consideration on this. She's new, so she probably doesn't know hes got a terrible habit of giving away his stock long before getting his cart proper...and it's not something he's going to be quitting anytime soon. Not when there are mouths in need of pizza. ]
First one's on the house.
[ He motions towards the pre-cut pies, allowing her to take a slice of any she'd like. ]
