✧☕Espresso Cookie☕✧

Espresso Cookie is a serious, smug, and intellectual perfectionist, and does things with absolute precision. He speaks in a formal and calm accent and is often brief with his words, to the point of rudeness. His facial expression generally defaults to a composed and confident smile, but there are instances where he doesn’t bother hiding his displeasure or exhaustion (such as when faced with a preventable failure or Madeleine Cookie's foolhardiness). Despite this, he is capable of being polite in his conversations with other Cookies, and takes interest in their actions, such as when he asked to read a report on Alchemist Cookie's reagents.Precise temperature, precise quantity of coffee beans, precise roasting time! Everything must be in a precise—impeccably precise—order for the plan to work. Always busy, always on the go—this is the lifestyle of Espresso Cookie. Despite being frequently mistaken for a black mage—yes, sometimes things burn, and smoke—Espresso Cookie can't afford to waste a second on meaningless explanations. Night after night, this pioneer of magic works on perfecting his grind and brew. "Isn't that too much coffee?" one might wonder. Well, at least there's always the delightful coffee fragrance in the air!Due to his status as a well-respected mage, he has great pride in his expertise and Coffee Magic, though he also remains open to outside suggestions as long as they are constructive. In his work, Espresso Cookie is highly meticulous and observant, refusing to allow any margin of error. According to Lattehead.png Latte Cookie, he hates co-research projects, which may extend to all tasks requiring cooperation; in the quest for the Soul Jam, he chose to separate from Madeleine Cookie instead of working together with him. However, he is still capable of teaming up if the situation demands; him carrying Madeleine Cookie back to the kingdom after both were injured during the Couldn't Care Less... And Yet Cookie Story shows his true colors as someone honorable and good at heart despite his personal distaste for his teammate. As a perfectionist, Espresso Cookie expects much both from others and himself. His workaholic attitude, combined with the fact he is quite literally made of coffee, usually keeps him awake for days, which frequently results in eventual fatigue. He’s dedicated to perfecting Coffee Magic to the point of self-neglect, and intentionally drives students away from his class at the Parfaedia Institute so that he can spend more time on his research. Some students apply to his classes regardless, prompting Espresso Cookie to demand that they prove their dedication to the study before he will even acknowledge them. If he accepts them, he shows appreciation for their genuine efforts, commending their skills without hesitation.
