Groovy Tunes, Thursday

[girlzippo.livejournal.com]

Yay, first day on the job! Charlie's behind the register, and possibly dancing to Three Small Words when no one's looking. The kittens are playing with some rubber balls she brought in for them.

Luna pointed to the music store with a paw. "Let us try asking in there."

Serenity tilted her head, but shrugged and slipped into the shop. "What is this place, anyway? It looks like fun..." She was immediately, though, on her toes trying to look over and under and sideways down the aisles for any dashing young Earth princes with dark hairs and a penchant for masks.

"Hello? Can I help you?" Charlie asked curiously, smiling at the girl who'd just walked in.

[bound2blade.livejournal.com]

"Many greetings!" Serenity smiled regally and nodded to the other girl. "Quite an interesting shop you have here; I was wondering if you could help me. You see, I seem to think this place is Earth, but my Guardian here," she nodded, indicating the cat she'd entered with, "seems to think...."

Something caught the princess' attention though and she clasped her hands together excitedly. "Oh, you have Guardians, too!" she squealed excitedly upon seeing the kittens.

"Guardians?" Charlie asked, then spotted where she was looking. "Oh, is that what you call kittens? Yours is really pretty. Those belong with the owner of the shop, she's not here right now."

"Oh, is she a princess in another galaxy?" Serenity asked. "She must be a very important one to have three!" She smiled at the kittens, wondering why they weren't talking.

"Ummmm..." Charlie blinked then, looked over at the other girl's cat. "Miss Valentine's really nice?" She tried, because who knew? She might be a princess, and not have mentioned it. "Melody Valentine. I'm Charlie, I just started working here."

She glanced askance at the kittens, wondering if they knew what was going on. Or not.

[bound2blade.livejournal.com]

Melody Valentine certainly sounded like a princess name. Much like Serenity's name, actually! How exciting that she might have run into a princess of another galaxy! Well...her Earth palace, anyway. And what a nice palace it was! Not like the Moon Castle with all the crystals and what not, but still...Nice.

"Are you one of her Scouts, then, Charlie?" she asked, not exactly able to grasp the concept of employment.

[girlzippo.livejournal.com]

"Scouts. Well, I help people find music here? I don't go out looking for them, or bring stuff back, or hunt anything," Charlie said, hoping that wasn't going to relegate her to peasant status. "But I just started today. So I don't know all of what might be required just yet."

[slr-mercury.livejournal.com]

"Oh please don't mind her. Princess, these are normal Earth cats. This is a normal Earth girl. I would know otherwise." She smiled a happy kitty grin and waved with her plush paw.

Charlie... gulped, then waved back. Not too much stranger than Michelangelo or Robin, really. "Hi? I'd take your friend's word for it, since I'm pretty confused right now." She paused. "Your Highness?" she tried, hoping she got it right.

After talking with Sammy, Dean headed down into the town. He was still feeling a little out of sorts and figured maybe some retail therapy would help. Hey, girls seemed to swear by it.

He wandered into the music store and smiled when he saw who was behind the counter. "Hey, I didn't know you were working here."

[girlzippo.livejournal.com]

"My first day!" Charlie spread out her hands, showing off the store. "Music there, kittens here, bright colors-- what more could I wnat?" She grinned at him. "Looking for anything I can help with? Say yes, make me earn my paycheck!"

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"Okay," Dean said, rubbing his hands as if warming to a challenge. "If I say BOC...?"

[girlzippo.livejournal.com]

"BOC... Um, Bachman Turner... no, that's BTO. Then I say, the B's are all over?" Charlie said, looking embarassed but game. "What kind of music? Gimme a hint."

Dean grinned then sang softly a little of Veteran of the Psychic Wars:

"You see me now a veteran of a thousand psychic wars
I've been living on the edge so long
Where the winds of limbo roar
And I'm young enough to look at
And far too old to see
All the scars are on the inside
I'm not sure if theres anything left of me."

[girlzippo.livejournal.com]

"Coooooooool," Charlie said, tapping her fingers on the counter, smile peeking out. "BOC, hunh?"

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"Blue Oyster Cult," Dean supplied, grinning at her proper appreciation. "One of the classic bands."

[girlzippo.livejournal.com]

"They sing Don't Fear the Reaper, don't they?" Charlie said, enlightened. "That's the only one I'm sure of." She grinned and came out from behind the counter. "And I'm pretty sure we have some here, too."

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, Don't Fear the Reaper is one of theirs too," Dean said, giving her a proud smile. "Not bad."

[girlzippo.livejournal.com]

Charlie grinned wide, and said, "Soooo, Big Brother, what else do you consider good? This?" she teased, pointing upward, and listening to Josie and the Pussycats' latest album.

Melody wandered in, wearing her cat ears and tail because it seemed like a good idea that morning. "Hi! Are you Charlie?" Igf she wasn't, someone else had ... snuck in and opened the store!

[OOC: *flees*]

[girlzippo.livejournal.com]

"Hi! Yes, I hope that was okay." Charlie smiled brightly. "I love this place already. And, um. Those are great ears. And tail..." After almost two weeks now, this isn't even weird. Just different.

Melody's hands went to the acessories proudly. "Thanks! It's my special band uniform!" she explained. "You can try them on if you want."

[girlzippo.livejournal.com]

"Really?" Charlie asked, not knowing she'd wanted to until Melody offered. "The ears look so cute." She frowned, "Band uniform?"
