Millie was cheerfully reorganizing parts of the store today. Which meant that anyone wandering in might need to beware of books floating about in the air.

Price wandered into the shop again, stroking his beard a bit in thought.

"Hello again," he greeted Millie, a smile spreading across his face.

[ooc: Yeah, I won't be able to reply until after work but I wanted to not forget to bring him in!]

Millie's face brightened even more. "Captain! Hello!"

Price took off his bush hat and tucked it under an arm. "And how is my favorite book store entrepreneur today?" he asked.

Millie blushed a little. "Oh, Captain. I'm quite well. just rearranging a bit." She gestured to the books floating in the air to settle them down somewhere. "As you can see."

"Certainly is no end of magical people on this island," Price remarked. "Must be handy when you have to sweep under the furniture."

Millie laughed. "Oh, quite! It all just collects itself on up when you tell it to!"

"I'll have to invite you over when it's time for spring cleaning," Price remarked. "Any interesting new books in?"

"I'd be glad to help at any time," she said earnestly.

She considered for a moment. "I believe there are a few new one sof the type you like. I just need to remember where I - oh yes! Over here!"

She led the way over to a stack on top of a table. "Here we are."

"I'll take them," Price said. "I need to get into some reading again. After the distraction of green creature invasion, I'll take something a little more calm."

"Yes, those were most unpleasant, weren't they?" Millie said with a frown. "Though Proudfoot did enjoy taking them on."

She looked a little smug. "Weren't prepared for an Asheth Temple Cat, now were they?"

[stayingfrosty.livejournal.com]

"Your cat fought them off?" Price said, pausing. "Must be quite the pet."

"She's not an ordinary cat," Millie told him. "She's rather magical in her own right."

[stayingfrosty.livejournal.com]

"Magical pet. Of course," Price said. "I pity any mice in your flat, then."

[livingasheth.livejournal.com]

"None would dare enter," Millie assured him with a smile.

[stayingfrosty.livejournal.com]

"Good thing I'm not a mouse, then," Price said. "Though I'm starting to worry I might have reason to fear this cat, as well."

"Oh, as long as you're not threatening me, you should be just fine," Millie said easily.

"Well unless you've been secretly hiding your true terrorist self, I doubt that will happen," Price said. "And even then, I'm not sure I'd be too worried."

Millie laughed. "I'm no terrorist, that's for sure, so all's well!"
