This week's word is...
cozy

How to play: Find the word in any WIP and comment with the sentence containing it. Just the one, ideally! The less context, the more hilarious & interesting it can be.

Rules:
- All fandoms, all ships, all writers welcome
- Give a head's up for disturbing/distressing content
- If you share a sentence, please read some left by other writers and drop at least one person a comment. (If you leave the first comment, thanks for starting us off, and we hope you'll pop back around later!)

I honestly forgot I wrote this! Kazuha is interviewing for a barista position and is answering the classic "Why do you want to work here?" question.

Kazuha had rehearsed this answer. “I’ve always had a passion for coffee. My dad worked in a café for a long time, and I guess I inherited my love of coffee from him. I also just really love how cozy this place is. It looks like you facilitate an attitude where everyone feels welcome and accepted the moment they walk in. I felt it the first time I came in here; this feels like a place I would be proud to work in. As an amputee, there are rarely places that cater to us, and I feel like this place does, even if indirectly. There’s a lot of accessible seating, and the material the floor is made of is easy to walk on, if that makes sense.”

I think Kazuha really wants this job because this answer is really thoughtful!

She's a very thoughtful and observant person, for sure! Her answers were a combination of desire, hope, and a little desperation after being unemployed for a year. It worked though, since she got the job.

I certainly relate to that as a disabled (autistic, to be specific) with a job (even if it's a volunteer one) - that's why I participate in events dedicated to giving the disabled the opportunities, accessibility and equal footing with the non-disabled ones in my war-torn home country.

That's great! I'm glad you found it relatable :))

Kazuha BETTER get the position because she killed it! And I love the mention of accessible seating, something so important and often glossed over in many shops and cafes. Also a cozy cafe is always a good choice!
