Lana's glad to make it to work today without getting rained on with chocolate pudding. She opens the shop, straightens things up, and wonders if there will be any customers today.

Elliot poked her head inside the bookstore. "Hi, are you open yet?"

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

"Absolutely," Lana said, smiling at her. "Come on in!"

"Excellent," Elliot said. She went over to a shelf of used paperbacks, lookign for medical thrillers, and emerged with an armful of books by Robin Cook and Michael Palmer. Inspecting the backs, she turned to Lana. "Have you read any of these?"

Lana looked over the books. "I've read most of the Robin Cook," she said. "But some of my favorite medical mysteries are those by Tess Gerritesen. Have you read any of those?"

[blonde-doctor.livejournal.com]

"Nope," Eliot said. "What are they like? I like them to be a little inaccurate, so I can make fun of them and feel superior. But with a good story so the inaccurate stuff doesn't get too annoying."

"Well, I can't really tell you how accurate the medical stuff is," Lana admitted, "But they do have really good stories. With a little bit of romance thrown in as well. I really think they're my current favorites in terms of medical mysteries."

"Hunh," Elliot said, looking at the covers of the books Lana had recommended. "A little romance never hurts. Okay. I'll try these two."

"Excellent," Lana said, ringing her up. "I think you'll really enjoy them."

"I hope I do," Elliot said. She paid for the books and left the store.

After leaving the Diner (http://community.livejournal.com/fandomtownies/890031.html?thread=35029935#t35029935) Tim headed for the book store, where, upon entering, he doffed his cereal bowl to Lana.
"Beljar Frolig, harvard U?"

Lana gave him an odd look. "Tim... Are you okay?"

"Wonderfalls, task do poor classing." He had just possibly inadvertently given the game away but he made no sign of it.

She searched his face. "You don't seem distressed. Did you eat something weird at the cafeteria? Can I help you in some way?"

[grand-fallguy.livejournal.com]

Oh good, he didn't. "Word? Oop hi oopda tank glue, vie who vu axe? Gland oop hi flushed stooped ick flu be weird glee beljar."

Lana sighed. "Why am I starting to get the feeling that this whole thing is a put on?"

Tim tried to resist the urge to snicker, but a tiny one got out before he could regain a strait face. "Squeegee." he apologized.

She shook her head with a little grin. "Well, maybe when you're done you can explain to me what went on here today."

[grand-fallguy.livejournal.com]

Tim grinned as well. "Primrose." he promised.

Lana laughed. "Okay then. Now, away with you. Some of us have work to do here."

Tim bowed. "Goombas!" he called as he left.
