Sparky Repairs, Wednesday

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

The tinfoil santa hats were back on Emo and Goth and Teddy was having them help string more lights around the shop. After long and extensive search that ended with them being right in front of him, the green lights were prominently displayed above the front counter.

Sparky's is open!

Dr. Venture was grumbling when he stepped into the shop.

"I need a set of thirteen gauge cogs, twenty feet of insulated wire, and a naked woman willing to pleasure me," he said. "I know you can't help me with one of these, and I really hope it's the last one."

Teddy blinked and looked around. No, no naked women.

"I can help you with the first two, but the last one you're on your own with," Teddy said, blushing at the end.

"Well then, why aren't you getting me what you can get?" Dr. Venture said. "Maybe all that metal in your ears is interfering with your hearing? Or is it just jamming your brain from working properly?"

Teddy stopped blushing and gave Venture a dirty look. "Let me check in back."

He waved at Emo and Goth. "Watch the store for me, okay guys?" The little dingbots saluted and went back to trying to hang a string of lights as Teddy stepped into the back room.

Dr. Venture eyed Emo and Goth.

And was definitely worried what would happen if they ever met H.E.L.P.eR.

"I'm timing you!" Dr. Venture called after Teddy.

Behind the door, Teddy gave Venture the finger. "Asshole."

Finding the wire and gauge cogs was easy, but Teddy waited a few extra minutes just to piss the obnoxious man off. He got a cup of coffee and drank half of it before going back to the front of the store.

"There you go."

"Stephen Hawking ran the mile while you were back there," Dr. Venture grumbled. "How much are you extorting out of me for this junk?"

Teddy told him a handwavey amount, higher than he would normally charge, but he decided that the extra was for having to deal with Venture.

Dr. Venture threw down exact change on the counter. "Do I get a bag, or am I supposed to balance this on my head?"

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

He would never be able to balance it on his head. Without any hair, it would slip right off!

Teddy put the money in the register, which was making displeased noises the more Venture spoke. "Let me check in back," Teddy said, grinning politely and slipping into the back room again.

Dr. Venture grumbled some more and began impulsively tapping his foot.

He never got this kind of guff when Brock was around.

Teddy finished his coffee and poured himself another cup. This was really fun!

He grabbed a bag, which was right next to the door, and headed back out into the store. Placing the items in the bag Teddy looked up and grinned. "Need anything else sir?"

"No, but you need a haircut," Dr. Venture said, taking the bag. "Good day." He turned to leave.

"Have a good day!" Teddy called after him cheerfully, trying very hard to wait for the man to leave the store before he started snickering.
