It's midday when Taurus walks into the the bustling cafe, filled with the sounds of indie guitar and the chattering of players in the background. This town has always been busy, and this is no exception; at this, she pushes her way through the mutiple bodies blocking her way, and manages to slip into the trailing, messy line.
It doesn't take long. she orders a black coffee, clear of any impurities and sweetness. The barista's an NPC, and happily pings in her order. With a chirpy smile, she states her price. It's reasonable enough and opens her inventory. surprise flickers across her face when she sees that she's just one coin short.
"Ah," She says, "One second."
She turns to the closest person and to her credit, looks slightly sheepish as she talks to them.
"I'm sorry, would you happen to have a coin to spare?"

with a yawn, hex opened the door to the coffee shop, a bell ringing as she entered. she'd slept it waaaaay too long and now she was suffering from it. the only thing that could save her now was a nice hot cup of coffee filled to the brim with cream and sugar so that they only thing she could taste was sweet. the line was long filled with both npcs and players, and all hex wanted was for them to get out of her way so that she could get her damned coffee and be on her way. hex is finally closing the distance between her and the counter, just one person in front of her, but for some reason, there's a delay. the player in front of her turns around and asks her for a coin. it was just one single coin, but why should hex give them up to some player who goes to a coffee shop when they can't even afford a simple coffee? with a sneer the caster simply says, "not for you. what are you, some sort of charity case?" she had no patience for people, especially not beggars.

She wasn't saying that she was expecting the girl to pay for her--far from it, actually. Taurus is well aware that not everyone has a coin to spare, and that there's a very high possibility that she may walk away without coffee at all.
But when the other girl sneers, Taurus can't help but blink in shock for a moment. Had she been hostile with her request? No...she couldn't have been. She had been as polite and cordial as possible. It may have been impolite to ask, but this response makes it clear.
This girl...
She's a bitch.
Taurus's expression suddenly changes, and she scowls, her mood suddenly ruined despite the pleasant day. She turns to the NPC and forces an uneasy smile.
"Excuse me."
When Taurus turns back around, she drops her cheery expression --what's replaced it is a serious, darkened look. "You mess with the bull..." She murmurs, nearly too low for anyone to hear, "YOU GET THE HORNS!"
And with that said, she springs into an attack, hands reaching for said girl's throat in the middle of the cafe.
