Magic Box, Thursday

It was Ami's first day at her new job. This was going to be exciting, she could tell. Also nerve wrecking. She came in and turned the lights on. Flipping the sign in the door to say 'OPEN' she went behind the counter and decided that today was the day to figure out both the inventory system and the register. And hopefully, she would not break anything.

Now if she could just keep her mind on the shop and not let it wander into the realm of figuring out if Setsuna hated her, if Billy hated her and if in general she should have stayed in bed...

Sometime that afternoon, after Setsuna had gotten in some good, thereputic training and was feeling a bit better having stayed over in Ranma's room the night before, Setsuna knew she could do this. After all, if she didn't visit Ami like she'd said, it would project the idea that something was wrong and she was convinced to not let that happen. Because everything was okay, she told herself. Just fine.

...It certainly did help that she had a vested interest in what the shop sold as well. She entered and immediately looked for Ami.

"...Ami-chan?" Setsuna, approaching the counter, noted the expression and was reluctant to disturb her. She didn't want to startle her, but she was also concerned that the staring into space was another strange effect of those drugs she was taking that had caused the sleepwalking.

Setsuna smiled for the expression, and nodded her head a little. //"Hello. Sorry if I was interrupting any particularly deep thoughts."// She spoke lightly, with a soft but guarded smile.

Setsuna nodded a little, and took a distracted look around. //"How has your first day on the job been so far?"// she asked, trying to identify some of the things hanging around close by.

Setsuna nodded a little again; she'd probably be nodding enough today that her neck would fear her head might totter off. She was sure they had to have some sort of label to explain them. //"I...picked up another job,"// she said idly out of conversation. She didn't want to talk too heavily about magic things because she still wasn't sure how much of that she wanted to share with Ami. So she'd stick to safe topic, mild ones, ones that wouldn't get them drifting off into strange territories like her strange fighting skills or them, y'know, sleeping together. //"Is that crazy of me?"//

//"The Devil's Nest? That nightclub in town?"// Setsuna's head tilted a little. //"I'm actually starting tomorrow. It will certainly be much different from the post office. I'm...kind of nervous, actually."//

Setsuna certainly wasn't going to mention the reason why she was nervous. She was mostly just talking for the sake of being conversational to show that nothing was wrong, just as she said. So far, she felt she was doing pretty well.

//"Bartending, and probably keeping the place tidy as well. Nothing much. Just something...different."//

Different indeed, as Setsuna's entire bar experience included one awkward night at Caritas when Chad and Ranma had just stopped dating and then that one night when she broke up with Jude with all the sake and the twins...

Sometime, just before class, Annette stopped in just to say hey to Ami. She had heard the radio and just wanted to check on her, to see how she was doing.

[identity profile] misshargrove.livejournal.com 2007-03-29 04:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Annette smiled when she approached the counter, "Hi, Ami."

[identity profile] misshargrove.livejournal.com 2007-03-29 04:29 pm (UTC)(link)
"I'm doing really good," she answered, making sure her collar was turned up high. "How are you?" She would not be nosey or so blantanly obvious about the radio. Not today. Today she just wanted to make sure Ami was okay.

[identity profile] misshargrove.livejournal.com 2007-03-29 04:33 pm (UTC)(link)
And Annette thought she could tell. "Do you need anything, Ami? I mean, is there anything I can do for you?"

[identity profile] misshargrove.livejournal.com 2007-03-29 04:49 pm (UTC)(link)
"Okay, then. But I trust you, that if you need me...you'll ask." She looked around the shop. "Anything in here Dick might like? His birthday is coming up."

[identity profile] misshargrove.livejournal.com 2007-03-29 04:53 pm (UTC)(link)
"Uh...no. I don't think. You know, I'm not really sure. Better stay away from the magic just in case. Well, I guess I'll see you later then. Have a good day, Ami."
