Turtle & Canary; Saturday [ 07/19 ]

Turtle was definitely still loving this whole being someone else for a little while bit. She came into work, thoroughly delighted in messing with Apu's head, and then settled behind the counter. She braided Viki's nice, pretty long hair again, and plopped one of the overstocked raspberry berets on her head in an attempt to sell them better. She didn't need to worry about looking silly when it wasn't her with the look, but Viki.

Today's Squishy flavors: Grape Judas, Mango Lime, Yellow Sea.

Turtle & Canary is open!

Jeff hadn't actually forgotten about Turtle's shift this time. He hadn't! He even managed to find doughnuts and everything, and with a bag of them, sprinkled and all, he spurted into the shop, crying, "TURTLE!"

...There was someone bouncing at him.

Someone with breasts.

Who knew his name.

And wasn't his girlfriend.

Clinging on to the bag like it was a lifeline, Jeff found himself utterly unable to look away. A bit like watching a train full of breasts crash into a large village of... breasts. "...It's like a village with a train in it."

"You are," Jeff blurted. He realized his mistake the moment it came out. He tensed up, his hand hovering somewhere in the air and oh god oh god, "I mean, not physically or anything, I'm not trying to tell you you've got a village for a face. That'd be rude! I'm not some sort of..."

Ah. He'd just struck the inevitable flaw in every scramble again. "...train... fetishist."

Marco had a tradition, no matter that he didn't look like Marco at the moment. "Ugh, Turtle?"

"Wow, I'm good." Marco said and swung up on the counter to sit near Turtle. "Like the hair."

"Aw, Turtle, I'm hurt." Marco said dramatically. "I'm only here, every Saturday, bothering you like clock work. Or well, most Saturdays."

Jack...was craving a Squishy, no matter what body he was in. "Tell me there's a Grape Judas there today," he muttered to himself. "Aaah! I sound like a giiirl!"

There was no flailing. Really.

"Thank everything there's Grape Judas," he said out loud, grinning. It may look a bit unusual coming from someone with good hair sense. "Wha? Oh. Yeah. Mind swap. Hiya. Jack. Jack Burton. I'm usually taller. And blonder. And a guy."

"I gotta tell ya, when I woke up this morning, I didn't know what was happening. Took me a minute to remember. And the clothing thing. I'm cold!"

He was wearing a t-shirt, a sweatshirt, and sweatpants. And putting his hands on his hips (he had hips?!) gesticulating.

"Wait. You've been swapped?"

It was a very amused Abigail Irene in the body of one Benton Fraser (still in uniform) who made her way to the Turtle and Canary today.

"Good day," she said with a pleasant smile.

"I would assume that you have simple men's garments available for sale?"

"As I recall hearing on the radio," she said with a faint smile.

"Though I must admit to the fact that I am not, in fact, Constable Fraser. We've switched bodies for the weekend, as I should hope you've heard."

If Turtle remembered, she might recall just who the radio mentioned Fraser had switched with.

"Doctor Garrett," she explained with a bow of her head.

"The one who 'wasted' all that money at Pixie Dust?"

She was grinning, just a bit.

Mostly because yes, she had wasted the money. But it wasn't her money.
