Turtle & Canary; Wednesday [07/21].

[sake_shinigami]

At one point in the day, Shunsui cracked an eye open from his nap at the counter when he realized there was a chimpanzee standing there in front of it. Quirking a brow, he pushed up his hat a little and sat up, and was about to ask if he could help the monkey out with anything (and perhaps offer it a drink, because who didn't love a drunk chimpanzee?), but before the words could leave his mouth, Apu came rushing out of the aisles, apologizing profusely to the chimpanzee and announcing that he was ready to go, before turning to Shunsui and informing him, in a tone that was clearly going to accept no argument, that he and the chimpanzee were now going to be going to lunch.

Shunsui definitely was not going to argue with him, but he did have to ask, with a crooked little smile, "Apu-san, have you gotten yourself a date ♥?"

Apu-san rolled his eyes and explained that no, it wasn't, he was merely taking the chimpanzee to lunch because it was Take a Monkey to Lunch Day, obviously.

"You know you can tell me if it's a date," Shunsui insisted lightly. "No judgement here, Apu-san ♥."

Just for that, Apu and his monkey were probably going to take an extra long lunch, which suited Shunsui just fine, because he hoped that just meant an extra long nap without interruptions.

Covent Garden Flowers; Wednesday [07/21].

[white_oleander]

After the last few weeks, it felt a little odd getting back to work; Astrid almost even forgot about having a shift at the flower shop that day, but she eventually made it in, looking around to see if anything had really changed much in the weeks she was gone, although, really, considering that things could change in a single day, or even in the blink of an eye, it was kind of a futile exercise. Still, things seemed mostly normal on that particular day, so she just settled in behind the counter with a sketchbook, because she had plenty of hole-related postcards to work on to add to her postcard boxes.

Recreating her cave paintings into a set was definitely a good way to waste away the hours.

Covent Garden is open!

Caritas; Wednesday [07/21].

[somethingwithturquoise]

So, yeah, maybe some people might have felt conflicted when they found out that one of their best friend's birthday party was happening on their usual bar night, but definitely not Summer. There was literally no hesitation in her taking that evening off the moment she found out about the party and foisting the evening entirely into Tino's hands that week. Anyway, she figured most of the people who came in would be at Rey's party, anyway, and if they weren't, they should be, and she instructed Tino that if anyone asked, then clearly he just needed to tell them to come join her!

Whether or not he was actually going to do that was anyone's guess (because, you know, moddable).

He did, however, see this as a great opportunity to make his own jello shots, in some sort of statement that Summer didn't have a corner on the market of boozy gelatin treats!

And, well, sure, it was jello. With booze in it. There was no arguing that, but was there really any arguing that it even came close to what Summer put out?

And could you really even trust the kind of jello shots Tino would put together?

There was a good chance that some of those had Malort.

[[ that's right, it's a mod Tino post! Summer's gotta get her party on! ]]

Chilly Boulder - Wednesday

[noonedecidesmyfate]

Belle had left her room intending to go to the common room. Instead she found herself inside the ice cream shop.

The ice cream shop that was newly refurbished after its whole hole ordeal. There were signs everywhere, including outside on a sandwich board though Belle couldn't get a good view of that when she tried to step outside, proclaiming "WE GOT THE SMELL OUT" as well as "FREE TOPPINGS FOR HOLE PEOPLE (we have a list)" and "TRY OUR NEW FLAVORS!!"

"New flavors?" Belle asked. She wasn't overly familiar with the older ones but she did enjoy trying new foods. The girl behind the counter grinned and pointed to a list at the counter.

DARK AS A HOLE: Dark chocolate ice cream with dark chocolate chunks
LIGHT AT THE END OF THE HOLE: Dark chocolate ice cream with marshmallows


There were also piles of business cards on the tables with #NotAllRaccoons printed on them, for some reason.
