Turtle and Canary: Monday

[multi-madrox.livejournal.com]

Jamie is behind the counter with his head on his chest and snoring loudly while Apu is debating whether or not he should just sneak out of T&C while he still can.

Turtle both winced and felt a slight spike of excitement at those words. After the whole thing with Jamie, she could see things either taking a quick tumble downhill, or a nice climb up it. She turned toward Sora, blinked at the crate, and then hurried to help him with it. "Hey, Sora," she said with a smile. "What's in here? Something really good?" She hoped so. But, most of all, she hoped it wasn't anything pink.

Nope, not pink!

He continued to smile brightly as he gladly put down the heavy crate and opened the lid to reveal a bunch of star shaped fruit (http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v735/k1tsune-chan/Oh%20my%20Sorikuuu/?action=view&current=Paopu_plushies_by_ImageC0rrupt3d.jpg). "These are paopu fruit,' he explained with a grin. "They're from my home and tradition says that if you share them with someone your destinies will forever be linked."

"Paopu fruit?" Turtle asked, her head tilting, as she reached in and picked out out of the shape. Instantly, she grinned, because the star shape was really just way too cool. And then she dropped her jaw a bit. "Wait a minute! I think I remember you telling me about these ages ago! With the whole linked destinies and everything..." She arched an eyebrow, turning toward Sora with another tilt of her head. "Brought these in with Valentine's Day in mind?"

Sora grinned sheepishly. "Yeah, I thought they might sell well or something."

"That's an excellent idea, Sora!" Turtle beamed. She looked like she almost wanted to hug him, but she was a professional, here. "What a great, neat alternative. And it isn't even pink! Thank you! You'll definitely get a nice cut of the profits it might bring in, too. Also, the timing? Is impeccable. I do radio tonight, so that'll be a great chance to get the word out before Thursday."

There was a sudden bouncing, clapping her hands. "Eeeee, yaaaay!"

Sora grinned back with a faint blush, happy that he'd done so well. "Great! And I can get more from my mom if you think we need it!"

He was not cheering, much.

"So...so what do they taste like, anyway?" Turtle asked, eying one of the fruits from various different angles and giving it a tentative sniff. "Is it okay to eat one even if you're not sharing it, or is that, like, bad luck, or something?"

Re: Bug Jamie

"Uhh," Sora had to think about it. "Kinda like a mango mixed with a pineapple?"

He really had no clue, but it was good! "Oh yeah, it totally is, I used to eat them all the time."

"Oooh, sounds good. You don't mind...?" Turtle ducked her head and looked at Sora with slightly pleading eyes, in silent asking if she could have one.

"Sure!" Sora grinned and found a good one for her. "The more plushie looking they are, the better."
