Mauvaise Chance Office/Lobby: Monday 6/2

The Guy With Tools behind the counter today is actually helping with the advertising for once: he's got a knife and a piece of wood, and he's whittling. He's not sure what he's whittling - from the look of it, and the fact that he's doing it mostly to keep his hands busy while he thinks, it's going to end up the world's most perfectly polished toothpick.

"Well, I, uh." Hmm, this came out a lot smoother in his head, when it wasn't actually... coming out. Much like now. "Kind of wanted to kind of borrow something of yours that I borrowed before only in that way where you never give it back, so possibly the word we're looking for is actually theft..." Yes, very clear, Xander.

She liked to think that she was reasonably fluent in Xander speak. But she was stumped. "You realize I have no clue what you're talking about?"

He sighed and nodded, then leaned over the counter towards her, beckoning with a crooked finger and looking around carefully. "Squirrels," he explained in a hushed tone.

Now this was intriguing. Isabel leaned closer. "Sneaky little bastards, yes. What's going on?"

Xander leaned even closer, and, after a pause, whispered something in her ear. (Actually a lot of something, because even though he was being sneaky, he was still Xander.)

Mindful of the squirrels Isabel didn't say anything. She just squeaked for a minute or two. "Absolutely," she said finally. "It's yours. Just give me a day or two."

"I just need it before next Friday, so you can have a day or ten, if you want." Xander gave a weak smile that got bright again in a second, once he did some investigation into this 'inhaling oxygen' concept. "Thanks. Also for the doughnuts."

Hopefully Xander could multi-task because Isabel was heading behind the counter for that hug she'd mentioned. "No. Thank you. I'm just...wow. It means a lot to me that you'd ask."

Xander could totally multi-task. Sort of. Besides, this wasn't the surprise hug; he'd kind of been expecting this one. "Well, you helped out the first time. Seems like I should stick with a good thing."

"God remember that night? It seems so long ago," Isabel laughed, hugging him tightly. "But it was perfect then. It'll be perfect now."

"Clearly you underestimate my ability to make a frakking idiot out of myself. But I love that about you, so it's all good."

"Never!" she insisted. "No idiocy allowed. And for what it's worth? I love you to."
