Demon Marcus, Monday

[that_oldsaying]

There were so many costumes today and Alluka was in love with all of the pretty, pretty princess dresses. And the fairy wings. And the crowns and sceptres and the absolutely perfect shoes for all of the above.

"Which do you think would suit me the most?" she asked her bunny, who didn't know the answer.

Which, really, just meant that she had to try on basically everything to see what worked the best.

Trooper Station; Monday [10/29].

[died8yearsago]

When Rosa and Arlo 2 (still in training, of course, and would be in training for a long time because that dog was dumb as rocks) got to the station that morning, they discovered her desk completely covered in cat toys and other cat things. Scratching posts, catnip mice, one of those little tube toys with the balls inside, a small box. And while Rosa'd been changed back long enough that the urge to try to sit in that box was just a fleeting thought, she had to roll her eyes toward the trooper with a very unimpressed, almost disappointed look at them.

"Really?" she asked. "Haven't you guys already done this one? Isn't this all the same crap from when Kincaid was a cat?"

It absolutely was, and Rosa clearly wasn't having it. "Joke's not funny the second time around, you lazy numbnuts."

She swept as much of the cat junk off her desk with one arm, pushing it all off the edge into the wastebasket on the side, then took out a matchbook, struck a match, and dropped it into the bin.

Was it really necessary? No. Of course not. But did it prove a point?

Eh....kind of?

It was lighting things on fire for the sake of informing the troopers that they were dumb. Rosa didn't need any more of an excuse than that.

Turtle & Canary; Monday [10/29].

[white_oleander]

Part of the deal with the whole graffiti-and-etched-glass incident was that Astrid would be spending some time working at Turtle & Canary to help cover the cost of getting the glass replaced, which seemed more than fair to her, especially since she didn't mind working, especially when it was to make up for something. Though she would much rather be surrounded by interesting flowers and plants (and, yes, even jack-o-lanterns) than canned goods and seasonal decor, she figured maybe the general store would be a little more interesting by way of people watching and general foot traffic. And since Apu seemed to have a handle on the cleaning and a very particular way in which he preferred to do it, Astrid was going to hang out at the register to ring anyone up, and work on updating all of the signs to make them look nicer and more professional.

Because, yeah, glitter does not a good sign make, Summer. You can't just slap glitter onto something and call it good.

There would absolutely still be glitter when she was done, of course, it was clearly a part of Summer's whole aesthetic, but at least now the signs would be neat and legible with some original artwork, evenly spaced letters that didn't smush all together at the end because of poor layout and planning, plus glitter.

The Perk - Monday late morning

[spectre_alenko]

After an intense run and multiple reps of stairs, and it should be noted, a shower necessary for the public good, Kaidan hiked over to the Perk for coffee.

He did his usual thing and told the baristas to surprise him. The result was a hot beverage in a large mug with foam shaped into..

"Is that supposed to be a Loth cat?" Kaidan asked. There were many attempts at a straight face from behind the counter, "You guys know that wasn't me, right? That was Kanan. I haven't turned into an animal yet. The other K-an name, but not me."

He looked at the foam and facepalmed. "I can't drink that. I mean, come on."

The barista behind the counter sighed and took the drink away, scraping off the foam. She added whipped cream instead and dusted it with cinnamon over a little bat decal before handing it back.

"Thanks. As far as I know, none of my friends turn into bats."

Kaidan took the mug and camped out in a comfy chair by the window. He fired up his Omni Tool in read/write mode and began scanning through the latest data he'd been sent.

Atlas Shooting Range- Monday afternoon

[seriesofbaddecisions]

Some days you just woke up and felt like shooting things, and today was one of those days. After her talk with Kanan the other day, Sabine figured this was something she should put a little more focus on, even if things were boring here right now. It was always good to be prepared, and if she ended up helping at all...

And maybe she was getting in a few trick shots on the dummies in addition to her actual practice. You never knew, maybe they'd come in handy in addition to showing off!

Covent Garden Flowers

[mylandmyrules]

Nell was still a bit spooked by all the crazy jack'o'lanterns, but she spent a little time touching each of them to make sure they were preserved a while longer than they might normally be. Who was she to judge?

The kitty willow curled up on her shoulder and snoozed as she went about the daily tasks, which made her feel as if she was really a part of this place now.

Fandom Post Office, October 30 (Tuesday)

[filleauloup]

The bats were no longer flying out of the mailboxes sporadically, much to the relief of Éponine and the rest of the post office staff; the guano had been quite the bother to clean up.

There was, however (and much to Éponine's delight), approximately a large litter's worth of black cats that kept lounging around the lobby, occupying every patch of sunlight and free bit of counter space possible.

Which was why, in consideration of people with allergies, there was a large hand-lettered Beware of Cats sign in the front window -- beneath which at least one black cat was snoozing at any given time.

[[No OCD, but open with usual chance of daytime SP! I would like to have that many more cats myself.]]
