Needful Things; Tuesday [01/23].

[somethingwithturquoise]

A few parcels came into the shop today, so Summer went ahead and opened them to help out and get them on the shelves in the rare occasion that someone came in wanting to buy a bunch of old and mostly creepy looking junk. The majority of the new old stuff was pretty standard: a bunch of old dusty books that she was disappointed to discover were really just old dusty books and not cool occult spellbooks, some lamps (always with the lamps!), about a million mismatched tea cups, no big deal.

But then she got to the bust.

"Uggghh!" It looked fine from the back, but when Summer turned it around to look at its face, she instantly regretted it and nearly dropped it out of a visceral reaction. "No! Ohmygod, why? Ughhh!"

Nightmares. Nightmares forever now.

"We're just going to put you over here, in the corner. Facing the wall."

And yet somehow the eyes still seemed to follow her.

Needful Things is open!

Furnado Animal Shelter, Tuesday

Zack had Girl with him at work today. Girl, who was his, with a collar on and a little tag that had her name, address, and phone number on it. She looked very proud of her new accessory, indeed. And Zack looked very proud of his Girl.

There was a sign up in the window today:

Now Hiring!
Get paid to cuddle kittens and pet puppies!

See, there was a job position anybody should scramble to fill! Who didn't like puppies?

[OOC: Open! There are open shifts on Sunday, Monday, Friday, and Saturday, if anyone wants!]

Covent Garden Flowers, Tuesday

[shiroi_tiger]

Nathan stepped into the flower shop, ready to start really putting a focus on the Valentine's preparations, since that was a nightmare that was looming just around the corner.

His eyelid twitched.

And then the rest of his day was spent reorganizing the shelves, certain that he could hear the snickering gremlin who had shuffled all the stock around nearby.

Well, at least it wasn't the plants acting up.

Or a gremlin bite.

Small favors.

[OOC: Open!]

Dite's Decadent Delights, Tuesday

[spin_kick_snap]

As much fun as it had been to freak Anders and Dante with the wedding magazines, Kathy really had taken her task seriously. She'd been asked to make several baskets of toys and supplies for a bachelorette party as a potential product to sell online. Being the girl she was, Kathy had gone overboard, drawing plans up for a basket for a honeymoon and another basket for new parents looking to reignite their intimacy. And she made several versions of all three; she wanted baskets that appealed to couples of all genders and sexualities, not just the cis-het ones that were usually featured in the magazines.

She'd drawn up lists of items she'd thought to add to each basket. Now she was collecting them from the shelves, setting them them all up. She had baskets and decorations she'd bought from Hobby Lobby; her entire afternoon was going to be devoted to arts and crafts.

As one would expect from a sex toy shop, obviously.
