Trooper Station; Monday [03/04].
Monday, March 4th, 2019 08:29 amRosa came into the station that morning with the reservation one would expect from someone who had pretty much been assaulted by musical numbers nearly every day of the last week that she'd come in. She'd hoped that, by now, the troopers had not only gotten it out of their system, but had also realized that nothing happened while she was gone. Definitely nothing happened that warrented a whole Broadway play. But she also knew that, just because one well had dried up, that didn't mean they hadn't gone and found another one to start drawing water from.
But everything was...quiet. Dare she say it, everything was...normal. She came in, there was coffee already going in the machine, a few of them were at their desks fielding a few calls or typing up some reports, the others were just sort of hanging around by the coffee making small talk about their weekends. There was a completely manageable pile of reports in Rosa's inbox, there wasn't any weird food or animal related things going on, no shrinking walls, no bizarre details...
...she didn't trust it for a second. She reached her desk, threw her jacket over the back of her chair, and pulled it out cautiously. Slowly, she sat down, waiting for the other shoe to drop.
And there it was.
Literally. The other shoe dropped right at the center of her desk the moment she pulled her chair in and went to turn on her computer. And then another. And then another. And the trooper station was subject to a very localized helping of scattered shoe showers throughout the day.
Rosa really hated this place sometimes, but there was a pretty kick-ass boot that wound up almost knocking over her coffee that she was making a mission out of finding its match, because she would rock the hell out of those boots and this one was even her size...
