Turtle & Canary; Saturday [ 01/10 ].

Settling in behind the counter, Turtle had more than a few folders with her to look over again in between customers and business. In retrospect, she had to say that all of the work she and Jeff had done last night was even more brilliant than she'd thought at the time. It put her in a pretty good mood.

Thank yo, come again!

She's always eager to give you a good deal!

Marco was there, as usual. "My favorite animal named person."

"How many animal named people do you know?"

Marco considered this. "I know some who turn into animals?"

"Not the same thing," Turtle pointed out, "but I still appreciate the sentiment. How's it going, Marco?"

"Aside from some vending machine related adventures, good." Marco said, looking for a reaction other than laughter. "You?"

Oh, the vending machine would always inspire nothing but laughter, but at least Turtle kept it down to a giggle. "I'm good. So how many new kids tried to stick money in you?"

Which probably meant that he was right with his assumption that the stickerer was Sokka. He had been acting far more innocent. "One. Then I fell on him. Except he wasn't new."

"You fell on someone?"

Because, seriously. Ouch!

"I was human by the time I landed." Marco sorta explained.

"Oh."

Turtle blinked; then shook her head. She still seemed a little disturbed.

"But still. Um, awwwwk-waaaard."

Marco considered this. "That's a bit of an understatement."

Turtle eyed Marco a bit warily, not certain if she really wanted the answer to what she was about to ask. "Who was it?"

Marco winced. "Hurley?"

"Oh. Wooow." Turtle blinked, and she tried, really, honestly, she did. She tried so hard not to laugh, but it just started coming out, and, before she knew it, it could simply not be contained.

"Yeah, no kidding."

"I hate you." Marco said as passionately as he could.

"No, you don't," Turtle informed him. "I'm your favorite animal-named person, remember?"

"You can be both." Marco informed her.

"Sure, I can," Turtle agreed, "but am I?"

Marco tried to remember where this conversation had started. "Chocolate?"

And now it was Turtle who was confused as, in her brain, the conversation took a decidedly strange turn indeed. "Are you offering chocolate?" she wondered, "Or putting to question whether or not I am chocolate?"

Because that would be a definite no on the second, and yes on the first.

"Both." Marco decided. "I would like some chocolate that I will then share with you, and I am wondering if you have ever been made of chocolate."

"No, I haven't ever been made of chocolate," Turtle said, "thankfully, since I don't know if I'd last long. And we've got chocolates, and I'd love to share them, thanks, Marco."

Marco took out his wallet - almost like he knew Turtle or something - and handed over a five. "The good stuff." He informed her and hopped up to sit on the counter. "How did your first week go?"

"No complaints, really," Turtle said, ringing Marco up and gesturing toward Apu to pick out something really god, especially since she'd be sharing. "Then again, I wasn't a vending machine, so I can't imagine there'd be much to complain about."

Marco snorted. "At least I don't notice when I'm a vending machine."

"Really?" Turtle asked. "That's got to be...well, weird after you turn back. I mean, I know when I'm a turtle. If I didn't, there'd be this whole block of time unaccounted for."

"When were you a turtle?" Marco inquired. "And I think I'd rather forget it, you know? Cause at least as a turtle you can move and stuff. I'm just standing there. Vending."

"Oh," Turtle waved a hand, "it's happened a few times. Never for very long, and it's been a while, but I remember. It was very....slow moving, though. And you moved! You fell on Hurley!"

Yes, she'd mention that whenever she could.

"I didn't do it on purpose!" Marco said, flailing a little.

"But that is still motion," Turtle insisted. "How did you end up falling, anyhow?"

Marco considered this. "I have no clue. But Hurley was holding money. Hey! Maybe next time I turn into a vending machine, you can try to stick money in and I'll go back to being human!" He's had worse ideas.

"Or," Turtle noted, looking at Marco like maybe that fall damaged his head a little, "you'll fall on me just like you did Hurley. If I didn't know any better, I'd think you were suggesting it just so you could fall on me."

Marco forced his brain not to go there. Physically. And tried to look innocent. "I would never do that."

"If I see you're a vending machine," Turtle warned, "and I go to put money in your and you fall on me, you're really going to get it."

Turtle didn't know how considering that Marco had kick immunity, but she'd just figure it out when she got there.

Since Marco usually forgot that he had kick immunity, she could probably go that route. "I'll try to fall to the side?"

Turtle eyed him carefully, and then she nodded. "You'd better."

She had a boyfriend; she couldn't have other boys falling on her.

Awww, Saturday braindeadness. Gotta love it.

Also, I need to stop using this icon but I loooooves it.
