Pixie Dust, Friday

[ashockingbitch]

Jenny was a little surprised to find her key still worked when she showed up on Friday morning, but since it did, she set about tidying the shop and moving out the new stock and things. It seemed to need it.

She also found a few things for the 'burn' pile, including some spandex, so that cheered her up.

Pixie Dust is open.

Jenny didn't think of it so much as bragging as stating a simple fact. "Of what blood? I'm not a noble, if that's your meaning. I'm Jenny Sparks."

"It wasn't. It's ..." Oh, he was going to feel silly, but lying seemed pointless.

"You would know if the answer was yes. It's a polite way of asking if someone's a vampire."

[ashockingbitch]

"Oh. No. I'm just me." This was unhelpful, she realized so she added, "I've been called the spirit of the twentieth century."

"I have even less idea what that means," Jack said, almost apologetic. She didn't seem as though the vampire question had bothered her, so he didn't offer an apology beyond what his tone would suggest. "You can't die or age?"

[ashockingbitch]

"Oh, no, I can die." Aging was more problematic. She was doing that currently, but was she going to stop at some point, was the question.

Jack frowned slightly, taking this in. "How do you get to be a spirit of a century, though?"

He was at a total disadvantage. It didn't happen often, and he didn't much like it when it did.

Jenny looked at him like she might think he was a bit dim. "I was born to it. January first, 1900. Midnight."

"... oh." No, it still didn't make sense, but Jack didn't especially want to encourage the look Jenny was giving him. "I don't think that's something we have at home, but I suppose I won't know for sure for another seven months."
