Arcanine sat at his usual spot in the local coffee shop, hoping a strong cup of coffee might kickstart his productivity for the day. Deep down, though, he knew he’d probably lose all motivation the moment the cup was empty. After placing his order, he flopped down into a chair at a nearby table, slipping his headphones on. The heavy metal blaring in his ears made him nod along sluggishly, eyes half-closed, fully absorbed in the pounding rhythms. The barista called out his name and set the cup down on the counter, but Arcanine was too lost in the music, his head lazily bobbing to the beat.
