NYE Party- Caritas- Monday

[throughaphase]

Did it feel a little weird to be throwing a New Year's party on the first day of school? A little, and Kitty didn't envy people who might have to teach tomorrow. But regardless, a party was happening. Signs had gone up around town to advertise, the bar was decked out in gold decorations (semi-tastefully, Tino had done a lot of it) and there were party hats that everyone was expected to take, even if they didn't wear them.

They were festive, and looked good in pictures.

So come one, come all, because it's a small town and your hostess was unaware of anything else going on!


[Open all-ages party, yay SP!]

Trooper Station; Monday [12/31].

Rosa hadn’t been to work in a week, due to hightailing it up to New York the second all that snowman crap was over, so she was expecting some paperwork to be waiting for her when she got in. But the fact that she couldn’t even see her desk for the piles of folders and paper sitting on it was a little excessive, even for this place.

“Really, you guys?” she asked the troopers, giving a futile gesture toward the desk. “You couldn’t have maybe helped out just a little bit?”

Ralph shrugged. “We figured….what’s the point? Whenever we try to help, you just get mad at us and yell at us for doing it wrong, and then you have to redo it all over again. So we thought, this way, we get to skip at least three steps and just leave it for you to get it right the first time.”

Rosa...kind of hated that she couldn’t argue with the logic in that. She narrowed her eyes, wondering about just when they suddenly got all reasonable and everything. She sucked in a breath and then huffed it out in a sigh.

“You’re right,” she said, “you guys do really suck at this. But now I’m starting to wonder if you suck so much on purpose.”

Give it a few days, Rosa, when they’ll offer up something that will remind you that, no, no. They’re way too stupid to ever manage to be that smart.

Turtle & Canary; Monday [12/31].

Since Astrid was apparently now taking all the classes on Monday, she’d come to talk to Summer about switching to a different day, and Summer figured she’d be more than happy to foist Fridays on the girl and go back to focusing on Monday, which worked better for her anyway, from a business standpoint. Do all the ordering and budgeting and all that fun stuff after the weekend, get a better perspective on projections, blah blah blah blah blah.

She had Girl with her, too, since she felt kind of bad. She was a great dog, really. Almost too great; it was almost a little creepy, but she had a weird thing about smart dogs; it sort of happened when you’d been threatened by a few of them and they took over your world for a little bit, and she kept getting distracted, thinking, wondering, because Zack had said that he was open to the idea of someone else taking care of her if she thought of anyone, and she almost got to wondering, now that the pet shop boys were back in town, if either of them would be interested in helping out. With the stunt they pulled over the snowman attack to keep that shelter safe, she could hardly see Zack being all, “OMG, I can’t believe you let those guys take care of my dog!”

Honestly, she was pretty sure they’d be better at it than she was.

But she shook her head, realizing she was getting distracted, and gave Girl a little bit of a pat before getting back to work, making a note in the back of her brain to sort of fling the idea to Prompto or Sidon when she had the chance.
