Stuff for sale, lunchtime

[willbedone.livejournal.com]

School had started.

Stuff for Sale had whole new shipments of school supplies.

The glint of joy in Willow's eye was probably scary to behold.

Peter caught her hand as they stood in the doorway of Stuff for Sale. "I don't want to lose you in the midst of all these notebooks," he said with a grin.

"They're all new!" Willow said. She took a deep breath. "New school supplies smell!"

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

"Hopefully a good smell?" Peter replied, chuckling.

[willbedone.livejournal.com]

"One of the best!" Willow assured him.

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

Peter thought of all those things he'd classify as good smells and realised that the smell of paper and pencils didn't even make the list. "What do you want to smell and look at first?" he asked.

"Notebooks," Willow said. "They are the foundation on which all of one's class notes are based."

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

He looked around and spotted a section where notebooks were piled almost to the ceiling. "That way then? Think they have enough?"

"We can come back if we have to," Willow said.

River was here shopping school supplies. That included a large assortment of pens and notebooks. She took her time, making sure she chose just the right ones.

Number 6 was purchasing rulers, protractors, glue, cellophane tape, poster board, file clips, clicky pens, pencil sharpeners, scissors, calculators, and markers. Lord knows what he was doing with them. It certainly had nothing to do with school.

Willow gave a little wave. "Hi! You must be new."

[defiantlyyours.livejournal.com]

6 peered at Willow. "And you are?"

[willbedone.livejournal.com]

"Willow Rosenberg," Willow said, cheerfully. "I'm a junior."

[defiantlyyours.livejournal.com]

"Number 6. Senior. Uninterested."

"I'm already seeing someone," Willow assured him. "I was just saying hi so being new wouldn't feel all lonely and sad and make you want to stay up all night eating cookies and crying over soap operas in languages you don't understand. Not, uh, that I know anyone who's done that."

"I pray that I never meet such a person," 6 said.

[willbedone.livejournal.com]

"So you're religious then?"

[moonbrain-tam.livejournal.com]

River glanced at the strange guy, and smiled. "You like pens too?"

[defiantlyyours.livejournal.com]

6? Still disturbed. "I can take them or leave them," he said.

[moonbrain-tam.livejournal.com]

"First time I killed someone was with a pen," River said, still smiling.

Somehow less creepy now. Actually, for a second she looked like Wednesday. "Is that so?"

[moonbrain-tam.livejournal.com]

"Yes," River said, nodding. "Ever tried that?"

[defiantlyyours.livejournal.com]

"Not as such," 6 said. "I doubt very much murder will get me what I want."

John walked past Stocking Up On Crap guy and gave him a weird look.

John stumped in, stocking up on supplies.
