who: Kaneki + Everyone
what: One day in the life of Kaneki
when: Before the 10th
where: Several different places, check the prompts
warnings: (Mentions of) cannibalism. The prompt that contains it is properly tagged.
Library
[ Kaneki isn’t happy to be in this whole new world – he is so tired to be thrown into sort of terrible new situations where he is forced to adapt. And yes, he does consider being here as the only almost-ghoul something terrible; being on his own and having to do the things he needs on his own is stressful and kind of horrible.
Regardless, there are some really positive things, such as working at the library and having access to thousands of books from thousands of authors he never even heard. It’s true, not all are interesting, and he doesn’t quite get many of them since they talk about things that don’t exist on Kaneki’s world, but he is completely in love with what he is got.
And that is easy to notice, since Kaneki is reading while he works – can it be even called “work” when his eyes are glued to the pages and he barely seems to notice others? Though, even if it doesn’t look like he is paying attention, he is, so don’t try to act smart (not that he’d be any good at a confrontation, but…ah well…).
At least he is smiling a bit – a genuine smile, too. ]
Coffee shop (at the library too)
[ Another job Kaneki has, though still at the same workplace, requires a different skill: coffee making. And if there is one thing Kaneki knows, is to make damn good coffee, thanks to working at a ghoul café back home. Though at first he was a bit clumsy with the machines they gave him, he soon worked everything out, and it’s no surprise a lot of people seem to enjoy spending some time reading while they sip their cappuccino.
He is actually pretty proud of himself, and really wishes the manager was there to see how good he got with time. Regardless, Kaneki will meet the next client with a bright big smile: come on, come on, try one of the best coffees around made by yours truly ]
Outside the laboratories (cw ; CANNIBALISM)
[ One of the things Kaneki avoids like the plague is eating. Not the normal food someone else would, but the only food he can eat: human flesh. And ever since he arrived, he refused to eat, but it comes a time when he has to give in because he knows that the longer he goes without eating, more dangerous it can get.
So when hunger is way too loud and no coffee can curb it, he finally gives in and heads to the laboratories. The meat he is given is mostly synthetic, which means he doesn’t have to feel guilty that he’s eating someone who died, but it doesn’t push away the terrible idea that is to eat people, to eat human flesh. Which is what he has in his backpack right now.
Once he is given his food (he hates calling it food), kaneki puts it inside the backpack, refuses to eat there, and just rushes out as quickly as he can, so he can find a hidden secret spot where he can eat. And maybe that’s when he bumps into someone, who knows? ]

It's nice. What about you Kaneki? Do you have any siblings?
[And she pays for cup number 2, leaning against the counter to get the best view of coffee making while he brews it.]
no subject
Kaneki at least gives her enough room to watch as he prepares the cup. Since Iris mentioned she was interested in learning, he figures she can start now. Once the cup is ready, he will place it on a cup holder and give it to the woman ] here we go.

[The entire time he makes the coffee, she watches, but most of it goes over her head. It's to be expected for a person that's just barely learning how to make her own meals. She'll just have to come back more often. ]
But thanks for today. I'm gonna come back more often to see you work. Then one day I'll let you try some of my coffee.

And you are welcome. I hope to be able to taste some for your coffee soon.
