Emporium is open
Wednesday, September 28th, 2005 08:33 amHaving recovered -- somewhat -- from the whole "zombies attacked my town" thing, Michael flips the sign on the door from "closed" to "open." He picks up a broom and begins sweeping the front of the store, where someone (something?) had tracked in dirt. He sees movement in the corner of his eye.
"What the...?"
Rats? He looks under a display rack and sees two glittering eyes staring back at him. Damn, he hates rats. Then he thinks about the zombies and some of the other interesting...people that he's met. At another glance he realizes there are three glittering eyes staring back at him.
"Ben, grab some rat poison for me, would ya?"
Ben takes off his glasses and gives Michael a quizzical look.
"There's a rat...-like thing here."
Ben hid a smirk. "You should be careful, it might be one of the customers."
"One of the..." Michael rubs his temples with his fingers. This is not what he'd expected when they'd moved out here. He looks under the display again and points. "You take anything, you're paying for it. Understood?" What he hears in response resembles a squeek, but isn't quite. Michael shakes his head and goes back to sweeping.

Lilah unlocks the door to the office, peering in to make sure nothing has come through the sewer entrance unannounced overnight. No additional destruction appears evident. She unlocks the sewer access door and walks to her office. She presses the button on a remote control, and the wall to the right of her desk opens to reveal a large plasma television. She inserts a DVD into a slot in the wall and plays it.
It is very obviously Angelus and Faith doing Buffy and Angel emo!angst theater. She chuckles and gets down to work.

In Town at the Park
Wednesday, September 28th, 2005 01:08 pmMaia is in town, near the fountain sitting on a blanket, notebook and pen in hand. She not working feverishly on it as per usual, she is simply sitting with her pen on the paper. The food from the diner beside her untouched.
((OOC: Anyone is welcome to come play. MUN is nervous about a grad school exam on friday morning and looking for a distraction from her nerves.))

A roar of engines from overhead
Wednesday, September 28th, 2005 05:25 pmThe early evening quiet is split by the sound of engines from the sky.
A little red and white craft that looks nothing like an airplane, but more like someone's toy spaceship, goes through a series of lazy barrel rolls and then starts skywriting in giant letters of white smoke against the reddish sunset:
BAGOAS I LOVE YOU
The little ship lands near the junkyard and its pilot is subjected to a loud and lengthy lecture about flying drunk. The roars and growls sound rather like a bear attack crossed with a wolf pack. If you're wise, you're giving that block wide berth.

The Perkolator - After School
Wednesday, September 28th, 2005 10:09 pmContinued from here - feel free to jump in here at the Perky. Is an open post.
The door into the Perkolator slams open, and a girl who looks a little like Rory, a little like Cally and nothing like the way she should look, storms in. She's hauling Krycek along by the arm, and being followed a little more sedately by Edward Scissorhands. She goes up to the counter. "The reg-- I mean, a double mocha, hazelnut and cream," she orders. She rubs her nose. "If this doesn't help, I don't know what will."

At the Echolls Residence
Wednesday, September 28th, 2005 10:38 pmAfter taking a long, hot shower, and doing what she can about her appearance - the dark circles under her eyes are still there, but they're slightly more faint - Rory finds herself standing in front of Logan's front door.
She has a fairly large purse thrown over her shoulder, which she is obviously not used to carrying, and keeps fidgeting with.
She brushes her hair off her face one last time, exhales hard, and hesitantly knocks.
