Luke's Diner, October 12 (Monday)

[laceycantlie.livejournal.com]

Lacey was sure it would be a quiet day today with most of the students and faculty off on a trip, but she refused to let that dampen her spirits (any more than it inevitably would, at least). Despite the busboy's mutterings of confusion and subsequent thwappings from the dishwasher (But it was the wrong month for that! No, Lacey had explained this last year too, wasn't he paying attention? Yes, but some people kept hitting him and it knocked the memories out of his head. Oh, whatever.) the diner was decorated with a harvest festival theme, complete with pumpkins and the occasional tastefully arranged decorative straw bale.

Today's Special
Thanksgiving Dinner

There was, in fact, turkey and three different kinds of stuffing, several kinds of mashed or creamed vegetables, soups, salads, and enough variety of baked goods to make the cook worry that someone from J,GoB was going to come over and throw down with them.

Luke's is open, and Lacey'll be over there enjoying some of that herself.

[OOC: And OCD-free today. If I made you hungry . . . I made me hungry, too.]

Dite's Decadent Delights, Monday

[divinesurfchick.livejournal.com]

For a battle with a goddess, it really hadn't been epic. Yesterday, after an initial attack by the gremlins, Aphrodite had countered with a love bomb made out of a vibrator, a roll of bondage tape, some rechargeable batteries, and a blown up condom filled with water and a touch of one of her love potions. After sending it floating down the vent, she'd waited to hear the explosion, and smiled widely when she did.

Things had been quiet for several hours after, during which she'd found a way to keep the vent coverings from being pried off.

Which didn't help any when the gremlins shook off their stupor and found a new way into the store. They'd first chased Hercules, then shot the goddess of love with a pair of edible undies before swinging across the store by way of several clothing racks and disappearing into a hole in the floorboards in the back of the store.

It wasn't until near to closing that 'Dite had noticed several of her best selling lingerie items, including a number of brassieres, had been stolen by the little tykes creeps.

But that was last night, and today she was boarding up the new hole in back, muttering about tiny green thieves. Hercules had been left in the hotel suite today, so she was alone in the store, and she learned very quickly that being alone meant there was no one there to meow at her when she was being stalked. Using a stolen brassiere, a gremlin swung across the ceiling, managing to send several condom bombs at the goddess before scrambling back inside the re-opened vent.

After wiping the edible goo from her face, Aphrodite realized the gremlin had had a lollipop in its mouth. When she checked, sure enough, the entire case of chocolate penis pops was gone, with several chewed up sticks on the floor nearby.

"Those vermin! I'm going to round them all up and send them to Ares' temple on Mount Olympus!"

But she'd have to catch them first. Right after she fixed her -- *SPLAT* -- hair. Again.

The war zone Dite's Decadent Delights is open. Watch for flying gremlins.


(ooc: Day Two of the battle is underway! All battles will take place in the store, and anyone coming into the store can expect to get hit with anything from a loaded condom to edible underwear -- you never know! This battle will last until Wednesday, or possibly Thursday night and is meant to be something fun for any townies who get bored while the students are away. Today there will be early morning SP, and an OCD will go up is up! If nothing else, I will amuse myself this week.)

The Gig, Monday [10/12]

[justlike_a_girl]

Dani actually managed to get dressed and leave the house this morning. She'd had a long chat on the phone with her brother about his upcoming wedding, which made her feel a lot better. Junior had laughed when she told him how Ken paid Vince to leave and even suggested that Dani get together with her old boyfriend, Matt, since he could really use some money.

But for now, Dani was fussing over the horses and trying to forget that Vince ever came into her life.

The Gig was open!

[The OCD went in search of coffee and never came back.]

Caritas | Monday

Apparently the entire population of Fandom, or close to it, was out of town this week. Adrian saw this as a bad thing. People were his real entertainment.

"Guess you'll have to do," Adrian told Tino, who was setting up for the night.

Without context, Tino had no idea what he was talking about. Adrian was okay with that.


[Around but slow. Mod Tino for speedy service. He's getting your drinks anyway.]

Tuesday, Stark Industries

[eyebrowgoesup]

Simply because most of the school had absconded from the island for their week off was no reason for Spock to neglect his duties. Besides, his mother had sent along the current materials being used by his class at his school on Vulcan, and he had quite a bit of catching up to do. He suspected catching up on astrophysics alone would occupy his time for much of today, if there was nothing else for him to do at the shop. Nonetheless, Spock was prepared to put his studies aside if anyone required his services.

Stark Industries is open.
