Turtle & Canary; Friday [09/17].

[white_oleander]

When Astrid got into the store that day for her shift, she just sort of had to pause and look at the banner that was strung out over the Squishy machine that wished everyone a very happy Hildegard von Bingen Day, and there was also a small table had been set up next to it so that everyone even enjoy a free slice of birthday cake from J,GoB to also celebrate National Bakery Day.

Maybe it was because the upcoming meeting with her mother was looming like a dark cloud over her shoulders, but Astrid could't help giving Apu a disparaging look as though he was really starting to scrape the bottom of the barrel with some of these, wasn't he? But he just lifted his chin and defiantly returned to his sweeping.

Astrid, for her part, grabbed a slice of cake and got comfortable behind the register, and then started to look up Hildegard von Bingen on her phone and actually discovered that she was a pretty cool lady and maybe she owed Apu an apology for giving him a hard time for wanting to just celebrate obscure figures in history simply because he could.

Blackstone Foundry and Forge; Friday [09/17].

[special_rabbit]

Amaya had just finished up another order from the Daventry Guard for more spears (she sort of wondered, for a peaceful country, what were they even doing with all those spears?), and she didn't really have any other projects or jobs on deck, which meant that she was mostly going to be spending her time in the shop that day tumbling down a little bit of a personal project rabbit hole that started with thinking that maybe that rapier on the wall wasn't really selling because the hilt on it wasn't quite fancy enough, so let's give it an upgrade, and now she was working on twisting and twirling and looping metal around the hilt as if she was trying to make the most convoluted fancy twisty hilt the world had ever seen on a sword.

It was just kind of easy to get carried away! But, hey, if anyone was looking for a hilt so elaborate that you couldn't even use the darn thing, well! Amaya Blackstone had you covered!

With lots and lots of twisty ropes of fancy metal.

The Forge is open!

Trooper Station, Friday

[firstofitskind]

Honestly, Liam had known it was only just a matter of time before this particular conspiracy theory made its way to the Bee Lady. So he really wasn't all that surprised when she called today to lecture him on the 'dangers' of 5G and what it was doing to her bees.

"Calvin," Liam called, gesturing for said Trooper to come over to his desk. "You're heading over to the Bee Lady's place to help her put protective crystals around the hives."

Honestly, he was amazed he could say that with a straight face.

(The only reason he was indulging her on this was he was pretty sure she had a crush on Calvin and he was a bit of a romantic, shh.)

Rey's warehouse- Friday Afternoon

[thatwaslucky]

Rey had been training this whole week (and probably overdoing it in an effort to make up for lost time), but she'd missed last Friday due to being a cat, and the week before that she had... not been herself.

So today she was running through Form III just because, and adjusting whenever the woodchucks chucked wood at her. Which actually was better practice for real life than if she was just running drills without? Not that she could tell the woodchucks that.


[Open!]

Fandom Fire Station, Friday

[designateddadfriend]

The radio had said something about another firefighter in town, so Travis was going maybe a little bit nuts making sure the little station was in fit shape. He really should have been doing so all along, but being the only firefighter around, he'd let himself get a little bit lazy, let the dust pile up a little bit high in the corners. Probie trotted around after him as he took a white glove to various surfaces and made sure the engine gleamed. . . .

The Devil's Nest, Friday Night

[my_own_advocate]

The original piano had disappeared. Lucifer suspected Eric.

But it didn't matter, because there was already a new, even bigger piano getting carried in to the stage.

He took a seat on the rocking bench in front of the keys (a rocking bench! Wasn't that delightful!) and settled his fingers over the keys. He began to play.

Someone should probably put an end to this before he had a piano the size of the Nest built.

Three Minute Dates- Caritas- Saturday before 8:15 pm

[throughaphase]

It was that time agaaaaaain! There was a sign on the door and a banner above the stage.

CARITAS PRESENTS
THREE MINUTE DATES

Or maybe, perchance, you totally missed it somehow, and didn't run from the bar before Tino could sign you up for dates. It happens!

And then a few minutes before 8:00, Kitty took the stage under the banner, to a drumroll from the zombie drummer.

"Hello and welcome to another installment of Three Minute Dates!" Kitty began. "In case you're new to this, in a couple minutes I'm going to call out sets of names. You'll find that person, talk to them for a whole three minutes. When you hear this siren-" Oh, that was an obnoxious air horn sound. "-you'll get a new person to talk to. If you got sucked into this without your knowledge, sorry, and also it's fifteen minutes of your life, make some new friends!"


[So much OCD incoming. OCD is up! Date away! A post for Caritas after the dates will go up Saturday!]
