Fandom Post Office, Tuesday, 5/29

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

On her way to work this morning, a snowflake fell on the tip of her nose, and it soon became crystal clear to Annette just how much she was loved, by everyone!

"So why do I have to work?" She said to no one in particular since she was currently alone behind the counter. "I am too loved to have to lower myself in such a common way. Where are my fans? I am ready to sign their t-shirts, their various body parts, anything!" She tapped her finely manicured nails atop the counter and batted her long lashes.

"I cannot feel unloved. What a preposterous notion!" She stomped her foot and turned to go find Gladys. Gladys loved her, she was sure of it. Oh, but first she set out the little bell with the note that read, Ring Me for Service! You love me! You really love me!

(ocd is coming up!)

Ring the bell and she will be right with you! For you to love, of course.

John came in to see Annette during a slow patch at the Photo Hut. He noticed the bell and the sign on the counter. As a boy, he felt the need to ring the bell repeatedly in an annoying fashion. And, of course, he was grinning.

"I'm coming, darling!" Annette called out from the back room, hurrying her way to the front with a big smile on her face.

"John!" she exclaimed brightly upon seeing him. "You've come to see me! How lucky for you!"

Re: Annette

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

Darling? he thought. "I have come to see you and it is lucky for me that you work right next door," he said.

"I'm, ah, looking forward to tomorrow night," he added with a wink.

Re: Annette

"Of course you have come to see me, sweetheart. I know your hearts desire, John." she batted her lashes and came from around the counter to stand in front of him. "You love me," she purred up at him.

"Ah, yes, tomorrow evening." She's temporarily forgotten their plan. "I know it will be so very hard for you to wait that long for me," she stepped closer and went to lay her hand flat to his chest, "Since you love me so much, perhaps I should make a small, tiny allowance..."

Re: Annette

"Uh, um, WHAT?" John stammered, trying to back away from Annette's hand, but not succeeding. He had no idea what Annette was doing or why she thought he loved her. He had wanted to date her, but that was before he knew about Dick and the whole Ronan thing.

"I love you?" he asked. John was totally floored.

Re: Annette

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

She grinned, "You're being coy, John. It's totally cute." Annette preened, ignoring the fact that he tried to back away from her. She just didn't notice.

"Tell me what special services you have come in for today? Would you like me to sign your shirt? Your...chest? I do not mind, truly. Or is it that you want a...kiss?" She let her fingers trail down his shirtfront, slipping her hand away entirely to settle on her hip.

Turtle had a package of black jelly beans to return to the company, because they were supposed to be red jelly beans and they had enough black jelly beans already and, face it, no one actually liked black jelly beans anyway.

Box in her arms, she frowned at the note on the bell and rang it for service, hoping she didn't just proclaim her love to some weird postal worker by doing so and that it was just...dramatics or humor.

Re: Annette

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

Hearing the bell, Annette swept into the front office area and beamed at Turtle, whom she knew she should dislike immensely. But as fans went, one must appreciate each and every one.

"Turtle," she began brightly, "you have come to see me! What a lovely surprise. Do you wish to take my picture?"

Re: Annette

[stocksgrrl.livejournal.com]

Turtle stared at Annette as if she'd grown another head or something. Looks like someone didn't forget to snort their crack today...

"Why would have come to see you?" she asked, and set the package on the counter. "I have to mail a package. That's why most people come to a post office."

She was going to add that if she wanted to see Annette, she'd just go find some roadkill by the causeway and figure that was close enough, but, sucking in a breath, she reminded herself that she was at least trying to put up the idea that she was being at least congenial to Annette, so she kept it in.

Why couldn't the jelly bean problem had been solved yesterday? Damn that Apu.

Re: Annette

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

She chortled, "Your coyness is sweetly endearing, Turtle. I know you love me and just as soon as you face up to that fact, I am more than certain you will see just how wonderful I am."

Annette made a small, grumpy face at the package. "I should not be working here. I should not be working at all. I am far too important to have to labor away and possibly break a nail in the process."

Batting her lashes, she looked back at Turtle, "Now, what would you like me to sign? Or is it that you would like a hug? Or to possibly kiss my cheek?"

Re: Annette

[stocksgrrl.livejournal.com]

Turtle was thinking that first bit was bad; and then Annette kept talking. Just kept talking, and each word made Turtle want to punch her in the face even more. Punch her, because all she could see was her stupid face and she couldn't exactly kick her shin when she was behind that counter. There was so much wrong with everything out of Annette's mouth that Turtle didn't even know where to begin on what to feel incredulous over.

So she just stared. "You've got to be kidding me..."

Aziraphale didn't have any mail to send. Even if he had, he probably wouldn't have bothered with a post office. In fact, he'd never actually been in a post office.

That was why he walked in today. That, and the fact that he was just a bit on the overly cheerful side, which tended to annoy certain oncologists who hadn't gotten enough sleep.

Spotting the bell with the little note, Aziraphale chuckled to himself and gave it a ring.

Re: Annette

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

"Coming my sweet darling! Or darlings!" She laughed lightly as she came out to the front office. Seeing Aziraphale, Annette beamed, "Oh, it is you! How lucky for you that I am in here this day for you to see. I'm having a wonderful hair day!"

She moved around the counter and came to stand in front of him, "Where shall I sign, my most handsome man?"

Re: Annette

[a-phale.livejournal.com]

Eyes widening a bit, Aziraphale took an instinctive half-step back, looking a bit bemused.

"Sign, my dear? I'm afraid I'm not certain what you mean." Then, because he didn't want to be rude, he added, "But...your hair does indeed look nice today."

Re: Annette

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

Why was everyone taking measures to not be close to her? They loved her! They wanted to be near her! To bask in her beauty and...love!

"Oh, thank you so very much, you who has such incredible eyes." She said, tucking hair behind her ear. "Since you are here for me, what would you like to do? You may kiss me if you like, I would not mind. Then I can sign your chest for you and you can feel overjoyed with the love you have for me. Doesn't that sound wonderful?"

Re: Annette

[a-phale.livejournal.com]

The 'incredible eyes' compliment didn't elicit the usual blush, as the angel was feeling...well, rather pleased with himself today. But he did give Annette a strange look for the rest of it.

"I...sign my chest? My dear, whyever would you do that? But I, er, will give you a kiss on the cheek, if it will make you happy."

Re: Annette

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

Shock! For Dick actually had a package to pick up today. Of course visiting the girlfriend was a perk. Or so he thought.

Re: Annette

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

Annette was actually standing behind the counter when Dick walked in. She was filing a nail but promptly put down her emory board when she saw him. Giving him a brilliant smile, she said, "I just knew you were going to come in today! You just love me too much to stay away for too long!"

Re: Annette

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

"Well, that's true." said Dick, he leaned across the counter to give her a kiss.

Re: Annette

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

She kissed him back but it just wasn't good enough. She knew he loved her and most likely wanted to hug her tight too. Pulling back, she gave him a little knowing grin and hopped around from behind the counter to stand in front of him. She felt it necessary to point out, "Please ignore the two blemishes that plague me right now. I assure you, they will go away." Her cheek was still very much red and of course her shin was now a big huge ugly looking bruise. Annette was wearing a frilly summer skirt so Dick would be able to see it if he looked down.

"You must be overflowing with love for me. Everyone that has come in to see me today has. They've wanted kisses, and autographs, and just what was I to do?" She shrugged and grinned and totally told him everything exactly as she saw it.

Re: Annette

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

Dick noticed but he was too confused by the way Annette was acting to say anything. "Um...have you been bitten by a gremlin or someth-kisses? Who wanted kisses?"
