Magic Box, Thursday, 1/27

[life_inshadow]

Despite what his owner (and owner-in-law) had threatened the week before, Mr. Moxy was not wearing a dapper fedora and spats as he prowled the Magic Box aisles. Tara, it must be admitted, had tried for a scarf, but he'd neatly removed it with his paws before she got out of her dorm room.

He stalked tiny dust bunnies as Tara relaxed at the counter with a mug of tea and yet another book on possession. The topic was likely to remain a preoccupation for a while.

[OOC: Open shop, no OCD. My office is closed until noon, yay.]

Arms Hotel Lobby, Thursday [1/27]

Ellie was busy today. There were the usual hotel things to take care of, but when there was free time, she was working on her article for the newspaper. At least she attempted to. She seemed to be suffering from writer's block.

Welcome to the Arms Hotel!

Nast Sporting Goods, Thursday [1/27]

There was new inventory today. Mostly Super Bowl stuff. Lindsay didn't really care about it. She barely even knew which teams were involved. Still, there were jerseys and football books set up in a new display. She would even try to sell them to any potential customers.

Fixer-Uppers, Thursday

[the_merriest]

Rikku was filled with nervous energy today. She and Reno were leaving tonight. Maybe tomorrow morning? It wasn't like they had much to pack. She'd packed already. They were only going to be gone a few days, whether it was tonight or tomorrow morning. He'd be back in time to take his Sunday shift, and they'd finish off the fiend that was raising hell on Bikanel.

One that, hopefully, wouldn't be anywhere near her Home.

She was a little quiet today, but getting in the back and dismantling an engine was doing wonders for her mood. Nothing like engine grease to help restore your Zen.

(open/ocd-free!)

Turtle & Canary; Thursday [ 01/27 ].

[sake-shinigami.livejournal.com]

Most of the items from the boxes of hobbies that Shunsui had brought into class earlier that week had been put back on the shelves of the store, but a few remained out for his own entertainment, especially since the hours at the shop seemed to take their sweet time.

Some of those hours were about to be completely wasted, too, as Shunsui had discovered a Rubik's cube. It was the perfect sort of thing to occupy his time, because he was discovering that, the drunker he got, the more fun it seemed.

Apu was quite pleased with the discovery, too, as it kept Shunsui distracted enough that he didn't really talk much.

"Ahhh, it takes finesse ♥! Just like with a woman ♥!"

Except for comments like that.

Cafe Fina, late Thursday afternoon, January 27th

[heromaniac]

Momoko was sitting in the Cafe Fina, poking a spoon at a parfait. She'd tried rifling through the cupboards of the common room, looking for something to eat, but she needed more than just candy and packaged cookies to deal with the two unopened envelopes on the table in front of her. So far, she'd finished three slices of cake, one slice of pie, and two bowls of warm cobbler a la mode.

She pushed at the two envelopes with her parfait spoon, frowning. The results of her National Exams and Police Academy test had both arrived in today's mail. Both marked confidential, both meaning different ways for her life to go. Both reminding her that school ended in just a few months.

Did it mean something if one was a thicker envelope than the other? Hadn't one of Dinah's university letters been thicker? Which one was it; the good news or the bad?

"And what exactly do I think is good news?" Momoko frowned and dug back into her parfait, completely not wanting to open either envelope. She hadn't had nearly enough snacks yet.



[Open, as the cafe is. Feel free to bug her or not!]
