Groovy Tunes, Tuesday

Melody was busy.

Very busy.

Exceedingly busy.

So busy that, after a few minutes of rushing around and doing little bits of this and that and flailing about how little time there was, she ... realized she had completely forgotten what she meant to do, and settled in behind the counter to offer a piece of string to Flopsy. Ah, much better.

Groovy Tunes was open, and the soundtrack today is a medley of songs from Disney cartons.

Shop without that pesky interaction.

She'll be ever so pleased.

Because there just wasn't enough ditzy blonde in Michael's life, he wandered into the store during his lunch hour to look around.

"Heyyyy!" Melody said, bouncing off her stool. "Anything you're looking for?"

He blinked at the sheer energy, then shrugged slightly.

"Not really. Anything you'd recommend?"

Sure, it might not be to his taste, but it couldn't hurt to ask.

"It all depends on what you already like," Melody answered thoughtfully. "But me? I'm really into the new Spice Girls compilation. That and Fall Out Boy, 'cause those lyrics are funny. And there's a TV theme song compilation over there that I keep listening to."

"I'll pass on the Spice Girls", Michael told her. "Don't think I've heard of Fall Out Boy."

"Then you," Melody told him, as close to solemn as her face would let her get, "are deprived. Listen!"

She stuck a CD into the store system, and someone started shouting about how this wasn't a scene, it was an arms race. "Do you like it?" Melody shouted over the music.

Michael listened to the music with due attention, then grinned.

"Sure, it's interesting."

And would piss off Hank when he played it loudly at home which, let's face it, was the deciding factor in most of his music taste.

"Then you need it," Melody said, grabbing a fresh disc and taking it to the register. "And maaaaaybe their first album too."

She leaned forward over the counter. "Is that enough music for today? Because I have some killer compilations that sound like them."

"I think I can stretch to another CD or two", he said with a grin. "Compilations?"

"You know, where they have tracks by a whole bunch of different bands, so you don't have to actually buy all their albums?" Melody said, and if it sounded like she thought Michael was stupid, that impression was lessened by her smile and her next statement.. "I didn't know what it meant either until somebody asked my band to be on one."

She came out from behind the register again and went into the bins, returning with the soundtrack to a minor-but-exceedingly-emo teen flick and something with a Alternative Press label on the front. "People are buying both of these."

"Oh, right", he said with a nod, reaching for the Alternative Press album. "This one looks like it'd be good."

"I like some of the bands on it," Melody confirmed, stacking the CDs and getting ready to ring Michael up. "So are you a new kid, or just someone I haven't met yet?"

"New kid, I guess", he told her. "Coming up on two weeks here. I just didn't see much of town yet."

"And now you've seen one of the best parts of it," Melody teased. She totaled his purchases, putting the CDs in a bag. "I'm Melody, and I own this place, so if you ever have a special order or anything, give me a call!"

"Will do", he said with a nod. "Seems like you're the only music shop in town and I've got no complaints, so... oh, yeah, and I'm Michael."

"And if we're the only one, we're the best by definition!" Melody said. "Come back soon, Michael."

.. I caved on the OCD.
