MHA Lobby, Saturday Afternoon

Loki still had some Halloween candy left over so you can bet your ass that's what he was eating for breakfast. He never believed in the fucking stupid food pyramid anyway. Life was way too damn short to eat turnips and beets just to keep yourself healthy.

There was a pile of candy on his desk, hiding almost all the paperwork he'd had the pipe dream of completing. What the fuck ever. Candy was better.

Ben had a place to work and he'd had breakfast and he had some clothes that he'd bought from himself. The other thing he needed right now was a place to live because the floor of the store wasn't exactly ideal.

So when he spotted one of the island's taller buildings that happened to look sufficiently apartmenty, he figured it might be a good idea to go ahead and check it out.

"Good morning," Ben said, walking up to the guy in the lobby. "I saw a sign that said you had apartments to rent. I'd like to rent one of them."

"I just came from New York," Ben said. 'Just' in this case, was a relative term, of course. "I'm looking for something a little quieter for a while."

"Oh, so this town is some kind of tourist trap or something?" Ben asked. He was kind of amused by the cockroach simile. That meant this guy would at least be one of the more entertaining landlords Ben had dealt with over the years.

"You never know, it could happen," Ben said. At least he hoped so, since that was exactly why he was sticking around. "Maybe the meaning of life involves having tiny streets."

Sarah'd had a few days to get the sense of the town, and the confines of her hotel room were starting to drive her crazy. She stopped by the apartment building before the wedding.

"Hi," she said, hands in pockets as she approached the main in the lobby. "Do you know who I'd talk to about renting?"

"An apartment?" she tried, though she wasn't sure what else he thought she could have meant. "I'm a little new in town."

Sarah shrugged a little. Clearly not your personality, she thought.

"I just sort of inherited a business," she said. "I don't know about anyone else."

"That's not really in my control," Sarah hedged with a slight smile. She was hoping not, though. "Long enough to need an apartment, anyhow. What makes it so small?"

On her way out for the day, Daisy gave the landlord a wave. "How's it going today?" she asked.

"If I'm lucky," Daisy responded with a bright grin. "Nothing much, though. A few errands, maybe get to know a bit more of the town better; I'm still trying to decide whether or not to go into the station for a bit of extra work."

The answer to that would most likely be a resounding yes.

Also, she had to ask, "Is the candy really that goddamn good?"

"Oh, I'm sure there could be a few more intimidating qualifiers to be added if you really thought about it," Daisy said, searching out for what looked to be the most chocolaty and sweet choice before carefully extracting it from the pile. "I could also, oh, I don't know, breathe fire or something."

"Maybe that's something I should start working on," Daisy unwrapped the chocolate with a smirk. "One hell of a party trick, but I imagine it's got to cause a few indigestion problems. Nothing a little peppermint or Soya oil can't help with, though."
