Introduction to Magical Coffee Date

00:00:00
Speaker
Hello listener, my name is Mayari and this is Magical Coffee Date. I'm sitting here in the moonbeam tea rooms, I've got a warm mocha with me, a sausage roll, and the owners are really cool and let me set up my laptop to record these sessions. I'm

Unexpected Encounter with Mimosa

00:00:18
Speaker
waiting to meet up with an old friend and hopefully rekindle that friendship because I moved away from the October region
00:00:24
Speaker
and sort of lost touch with everyone, but it's fine, because I'm back now. I sent out a mailer cat to everyone I used to know and set up a few coffee dates. Thankfully, some people replied, and today I have with me...

Mimosa's Mailer Cat Mishap

00:00:40
Speaker
Ahem. Hello? Oh, I'm sorry. Were you not going to introduce me? Am I so- Are you here for me?
00:00:57
Speaker
I guess. Unless there was someone else I was supposed to meet here. Did you answer? I'm sorry. Did you answer my letter? I sent a letter to people I knew that live here,

Succulent Scents Revealed

00:01:12
Speaker
but... Oh, I'm terribly, terribly sorry. Was that your cat? Your mailer cat? Yes, yes. I'm terribly sorry. The mailer cat couldn't make it back. Whoa. Unfortunately, my pet alligator.
00:01:27
Speaker
Um, had a little snack and, uh, it wasn't, uh, right. We couldn't return it. I couldn't return the response. Anyway, I was supposed to meet someone here and you have a familiar face. Do I know you? You have a pet alligator that
00:01:57
Speaker
ate my mailer cat? Let's not focus on that. No, wait, wait.

Skincare and Scents Business Expansion

00:02:06
Speaker
This cat? Oh, it must have been another cat. Okay, but I'm just glad that you're okay. I'll give you all the treats later. I'm so sorry. Okay.
00:02:22
Speaker
Um, oh, I didn't even recognize your alligator or see it there, which is clearly right next to you. It's a very quiet alligator. Yes, he likes to sneak up on people. Sorry about that. Sorry, who are you again? Mimosa.
00:02:41
Speaker
Mimosa from. I live in the swamp region. I am the pillar, you could say, of the swamp region with my. Oh, my gosh. With your. Wait, maybe it's not ringing a bell with your. My scent shop. Your oh. Wait, what was it called? That was your scent shop. What is it called again? Succulent scents. Succulent scents.
00:03:10
Speaker
Oh, OK. Wait a minute. Are you that lady? Yes, I'm the lady. Oh, OK. Yeah, you're the lady. But I don't know why I didn't recognize you. Your hair is just it and your whole demeanor is something that I normally wouldn't forget.
00:03:36
Speaker
Yes. Well, I've been doing exclusive home treatments of algae masks and pine needle treatments. Oh, what's that like? Exclusive and secret. My own personal formula. I've started to branch out from my scent shop and I'm doing treatments.

Mayari's Overwhelming Experience and Consequences

00:04:03
Speaker
What kind of treatment? Wait, wait, what kind of treatments?
00:04:07
Speaker
Restorative treatments on the face. Oh. Is that why your skin looks amazing? I mean, it's great. So good of you to notice it's working. Yeah. I mean, like you look like you were chiseled out of stone. Yes. Yes. That's that's the goal of my new line of skin treatments. Oh, do you have any samples with you?
00:04:38
Speaker
No, I don't. Well, that's unfortunate. You'd have to visit my shop again. I mean, I'm already sitting here and I don't know if I exactly want to visit the swamp region again, because last time I was there. Wait a minute. Wait, hold on. Let's dial it back a sec. You answered my mailer cat, which is bod, by the way.
00:05:03
Speaker
Thank goodness he didn't get eaten by your alligator. What's your alligator's name? Champ. Champ? Please don't eat bod. He's a good boy. He's the champagne of my mimosa. Oh, you're, you're, you're champagne?
00:05:23
Speaker
My champagne. My beautiful boy. Yeah, he's he's beautiful. OK, wait, so why are you here, though? Like, I know that you're meant to meet me, but I don't I didn't think I made that much of a lasting impression on you to even come visit me. And to be honest, I don't really remember. Consider this a favor. OK. You're welcome.
00:05:51
Speaker
Thank you. Um, so can you, you know, it's so weird because I just don't, I don't really remember the swamp region did something. I must've been there briefly just before I came back, but, and I had to have come through because that's how you get here, but I just don't understand.

Debt and Job Offer Discussion

00:06:17
Speaker
Like.
00:06:19
Speaker
Did something happen there that I made an impression on you that you wanted to see me? Well, like most people, people will tend to get lost in the swamp region. They do not go searching for the swamp region. The swamp region searches for them. Oh. And people end up in the swamp region for unforeseen circumstances.
00:06:45
Speaker
And I believe my champ, my beautiful champ, lured you into my shop like he does most people. Well, that doesn't make me feel any better. Yeah, it wouldn't. Champ isn't very selective. Oh, well, why did he select me? That's actually kind of cool.
00:07:11
Speaker
You had an aura about you, and maybe you were seeking the sense of my my lovely shop. Because it does tend to draw people in much like my beautiful boy, champ. So beautiful. Um, okay, wait. That rings a bell.
00:07:34
Speaker
Because I remember opening all of your little candles. Sorry, not little, like in a condus anyway. I remember opening your candles, which are little, like taking the tops off and sniffing them. But I remember at one point I started to feel a little bit dizzy and I fell on the floor. Oh my gosh. That was one of our more potent scents.
00:08:02
Speaker
Oh gosh, did I damage any of your items? Is that why you're here? Yes, I have come with an invoice, you could call it, as the business patrons could say. And I've gone through every single little detail down to the glass that shattered all over my pristine wooden floors.
00:08:29
Speaker
And I picked everyone up with my fingers and counted. Every single piece? Yes, indeed. Good glass is hard to come by. Well, clearly if it shattered that much that you had to pick up it. It was the best quality of glass. Oh. I searched for it myself far and wide. And now I pretend to you with this.
00:08:58
Speaker
You brought me- Oh, okay. Sorry for a second. I mistaken this piece of paper for a bag of shattered glass. No, I have recycled it for my brand new face treatment. Oh! Why is your hand moving closer to my face? I don't really know if I want a glass scrub. It's a high intensity face exfoliation treatment.
00:09:27
Speaker
H-I-I-F-E-T? Was that right? I don't know if I want this. I don't really- I know you've exfol- I mean, you've prob- Oh, it does look like there's those little tiny shards, they're very sharp. I don't think you ground it down enough for it to be a scrub.
00:09:54
Speaker
I don't know. I'm just going to back away slightly. Maybe maybe later. Maybe. I mean, maybe after after this. I don't know. Right. OK, so can you I'm sorry, I can't really read what's on this invoice because my eyes are watery and I'm scared. But could you just let me know what it says?
00:10:24
Speaker
Hm, yes. Yes, it's very- it's very extensive, isn't it? It- it's a very long- I mean, it's like you went to BVS and printed out a receipt. Mm-hmm, yes. It's very extensive. Anyway, should we get down to the list? Yeah, sure. Uh, anything that'll- like, I- I do want to
00:10:49
Speaker
pay you back, but I don't know if, if, look, if it's a lot, I don't have that much money on me. So let's just go through the list and we'll see. Would you consider becoming an employee of Succulent Sense to repay your debt to me? I could use an employee while I am out traveling for sense and someone to watch over champ, especially.

Contemplating Future Adventures

00:11:14
Speaker
Well, wait, what kind of sense are you looking for?
00:11:18
Speaker
All of them. Oh, all of them like. Fart. Down to the farts up. To the lavenders and exclusive sages. Exclusives, where do you get exclusive sage? I have yet to find the exclusive sages, but I know they're out there. I'm sure they are. I mean, I go where my nose takes me.
00:11:49
Speaker
Oh, maybe that's how you found me also. Aside from the letter, maybe you smelled the paper and were like, that's fart or something. I don't know. Yes. Well, okay. Sorry. Okay. Sorry. Let's hear what's on this list. I keep, I keep, I don't mean to do this. Let's just go for it.
00:12:22
Speaker
here. Are you having to read through all the fine print in order to see what's actually on my list? I had to keep the font super small to fit everything on the list. Black licorice sent from the ethereal region.
00:12:51
Speaker
Cotton candy from the charming region. Uh-huh. Snowflakes from the Snowfall region. It was very cold to find that scent. I hope you know. Snowflakes? Snowflakes! The Snowfall region was hard to find. The Snowflakes were very hard to decipher, the scent. It took me years to perfect the smell of snowflakes. It took me years to perfect.
00:13:22
Speaker
You've never smelled a snowflake in your life. I guess not. I mean, I did say there for a while. That's fine. Oh, I'm sorry. I'm listening. I'm listening. I'm sorry. Yes. All these all these poor candles. I will never perfect the scent. Unless I go far and wide back to these regions again. Oh, my poor champ will have to go without his mummy.
00:13:51
Speaker
Well, I mean, I don't know if I'm really cut for babysitting an alligator, but what would this cost me? I do have like three money on me. Only three money. I mean, I'm doing this. How will I fund my travels? I mean my shop. Um... I don't know. Have you ever considered making your own sense out of things that you have?
00:14:19
Speaker
like you expect to be in your kitchen covered I don't know keeping things that's true that's too extensive things come and go that's just how life is so in your house do you just have no shelves and no furniture or like what's the sleeping situation like I don't sleep oh my gosh well I guess you are a business person so
00:14:47
Speaker
Yes. So let's say that I did want to apply to work at Succulent Sense. What is the process like? Well, you would have to be my assistant. Okay. Be on call all times of the day.
00:15:16
Speaker
Hold my coats and champs sweaters. How many coats do you wear? Because you said coats. Mm hmm. Like how many are you? Are you wearing like three coats right now? Not that cold.
00:15:36
Speaker
I get very cold. I'm cold tempered person. I don't sleep. I only wear coats for my comfort. Oh my gosh. You know how when you're very tired and you just get so cold that you start shivering, but you can't sleep because you need to do things. I completely understand what you mean. Yes. I don't know. Is that just me? I think that only happened to me.
00:16:07
Speaker
Okay, and I know it just sounds like I don't want to do the job, partly because I don't, but like, where would you go that, like, where would I even be? If I'm your assistant, where would I even go to, like, carry your coats? To need to carry your coats? Where are we going? Everywhere. Ugh.
00:16:29
Speaker
I just got back from everywhere, though. You've traveled before. You're a seasoned traveler and the exact person I need to be my assistant. I don't know. OK, see, look, I was already I already traveled and I'm back here for a reason. So I don't know. I think I'll think about it. I'll keep it on, you know, file it somewhere. But like, I don't know, traveling is for me at this moment. I'm kind of just
00:16:59
Speaker
back home. You know, home, you know, I don't know me home. Well, the swamp region. Technically, right? The swamp is champs home. I only follow champ. Oh.
00:17:23
Speaker
Champ, you look so cute when you nod your head that way, but maybe you could also help Mimosa find somewhere they feel more comfortable. Not many people are comfortable with my baby boy. Well, it sounds like it's those people's problems. But has there been anywhere that you've been before that you really enjoy? Maybe that could be your new home.
00:17:53
Speaker
I did enjoy sniffing snowflakes. And you know, the snowfall region is so popular. And like, I feel like if you gathered all those snowflakes and chopped them up really small, sniffing them, sniffing them, that would be just so wonderful. Yes, champ would have to wear extra alligator sized sweaters.
00:18:22
Speaker
I mean, there's a bunch of shops nearby. Maybe we could probably have to make little booties for him. Yeah. I mean, I'm sure there's people around that would be happy to. I mean, the October region is so friendly and welcoming that maybe, you know, someone out there should be able to make something for him.

Chelsea and Twitch Promotion

00:18:43
Speaker
Is there anything else I can help you with? I'm sorry. Like I only have three money and I don't really feel like traveling and you know, I'm happy here. Is there anything else I can help you with today? I wasn't expecting this meeting at all, but you know, it was nice to see your face.
00:18:58
Speaker
I did bring you a little souvenir from my shop. Oh, did you? Yes. It's a candle. It's one of the last candles of my collection. Let me just quickly open it and give it a sniff. It's your favorite. Does that smell like black licorice to you? I knew you would love it. Yay, we're ourselves now. Yay. Have with me my dear friend Chelsea. Bye.

00:19:49
Speaker
I hope you had fun. Chelsea is not like that person at all.
00:19:58
Speaker

Well, thanks for being here. Goodbye.
00:20:23
Speaker
And hello again, this is the end. And guess what, everyone? It's been months, but I've also decided to upload audio only versions, which these are, by the way, only audio versions of the episodes onto YouTube as well. So back in January, when I'm recording this, I decided that YouTube would probably be a good place, be a good home.
00:20:47
Speaker
for this as well. So please listen on youtube.com slash glowpinksta. So now everything
00:20:56
Speaker
is at Glow Pinksta, YouTube, TikTok, Twitch, Twitter, Instagram. Is there anything I'm missing? Follow me on those places. And it's only the 12th of January. And these, at this point, only in my episode with Neve has come out, aside from my intro. And I just want to say in the last 12 days,
00:21:23
Speaker
things have been moving so quickly for me in regards to, uh, you know, my decision making with, you know, what I'm doing with this. And, um, I just want to say thanks to everyone who's been supportive so far and I can't wait to see, you know, what comes next. And I hope that I at least get to, my big goal is to make it to at least 10 episodes. My biggest goal is to make it to a year
00:21:51
Speaker
So I just want to thank everyone so far who's been on the show with me for taking part and for, you know, helping to bring this to life.

Behind-the-Scenes and Patreon Invitation

00:22:27
Speaker
Just very thankful. Feeling very thankful right now. Follow me on the things. And thank you so much to Chelsea. While I was editing this, I was giggling the entire time. And yeah, I mean, that's how I feel when I edit all of these because I just remember what everyone looks like. Anyway, that's enough behind the scenes stuff. Oh, speaking of behind the scenes.
00:22:48
