The Magic Box, Thursday

Last day working at the Magic Box. Tannim would be leaving Fandom this weekend. He was feeling so nostalgic he even considered buying some Slug candles to take with him.

The Magic Box was open.

Stan entered the shop, feeling sheepish. He hoped the owner would not laugh at him.

"Hi, can I help you?" Tannim asked.

"Yes," he said. "I'm looking for some relaxation candles, or at least a referral to here for people who might need them."

"We've got a great selection of candles," Tannim said, leading Stanley to the candle display and picked up samples to show him. "Here's vanilla, lemon, cinnamon and, uh, slug." He set the last one down quickly and wiped his hand on his jeans. "That's kinda an acquired taste."

"I'm sorry. Did you just say slug? As in slug scented?" Stan peered at it, but not too closely, in case it attacked. Candles can do that here, right? "How is a slug candle relaxing?" he muttered to himself.

"Yeah, that might not be the best choice for relaxing," Tannim admitted. "Vanilla might be a better choice."

"Vanilla it is," he said, taking a pair. "I assume you ahve books on meditation and relaxation?" He muttered something about 'if only I could expense those'. Possibly.

"We do," Tannim said. He showed Stanley the section in question.

"Excellent." He browsed the titles, making mental notes for future reference. "I think just the candles for today."
