Welcome to Frappuchinos! Now Serving: First Day Jitters
I admit, I was going to post a picture of Venti at his other job, but I'm going to wait. Good things come to those who wait, you know.
Six more until the 100th Frappuchino!

Venti growled as he tried to work the knot for his tie. "Why in the world can I not get this tie to tie right?"
Fortunately, Art was in the bedroom, and tugged on his tie. "Sit down and let me do it for you," he said politely, waiting for Venti to crouch. He then moved behind the jackal, climbed onto his back, and reached forward to take the two ends of the tie. "You're nervous about your first day in the library, aren't you?"
"Of course I am," Venti smirked, standing still as Art managed to tie the tie around his neck. He then looked down at his lion's handiwork. "Thanks, sweetie."
Art lightly kissed the jackal's cheek, then licked it quickly. "That lick's for luck."
"I think I'll need it."
"Oh, don't be like that. You'll do just fine. It's not like it's gong to be any more stressful than the coffee house."
"I dunno, we'll see."
Art slid off Venti's back, patting his arm when he moved in front of him. "So you'll be working the front desk, huh?"
"Checking in books, checking them out, praying I don't screw up."
Art grinned up at Venti, who earflicked rapidly. "I don't think I've seen you so nervous. You weren't like this during the photoshoot."
"The photoshoot was probably a one time thing. This is steady income."
Art stood on his tip toes, cupped Venti's cheeks, and kissed him on the nose. "You'll do fine." He reached around Venti's waist, sliding his thumb and forefinger around the jackal's tailbase. "Just remember you need to be quiet in a library, okay?"
"I'm not that loud, am I?"
"You're a big jackal," Art said. "You know how your voice can carry."
"You're not filling me with confidence," Venti grunted, though he did curl his arms around Art's waist, giving him a kiss on the muzzle.
"You'll do fine. I'll stop by after work to check up on some heavy reading I've been meaning to do."
"Is that a euphemism for sex?"
"No, but now that you mention it I would like to check you out."
Venti groaned. "And the winner for cheesy pickup lines goes to..."
