Covent Garden Flowers; Wednesday [12/08].

[white_oleander]

Astrid had noticed that several of the plants and flowers in the store that day seemed to be drinking eggnog, and she wondered if she should be concerned that the flowers were drinking eggnog, but, honestly? She found herself mostly just wondering where in the world they'd all managed to get those tiny little mugs that seemed to just fit perfectly in their leaves and stems.

Either way, she had her hot cocoa that she'd brought with her from the dorms and had settled in behind the counter to do a nice set of thematically relevent postcards featuring various flowers drinking from tiny mysterious mugs of eggnog and wondering if she should send her mother a Christmas card this year, mostly because she suspected Ingrid would be annoyed by it, especially if Astrid had made it herself.

Turtle & Canary; Wednesday [12/08].

[sake_shinigami]

And so it would seem that day that Shunsui could not see the store for all the trees.

He wasn't particularly sure on whose shoulders such a thing would fall on: leftover from Astrid-chan's stint as temporary manager? Summer-chan still getitng back into the swing of things after her little space excursion? Apu-san going unsurprisingly overboard in the arbitrary celebration of such things? Or merely the store, with its usual excessive sense of humor?

Whatever the case may be, it was like walking through a vertiable winter wonderland of Christmas trees in able to just make it to the counter, where a glance over the store at several tree toppers poking up over the shelves told him that this was indeed spread throughout the entire store, so he figured he'd at least have to make his way over to the boozy aisle at least once to ensure he had a good supply to get him through this one, because he had no plans to leave the counter if he could help it.

Granted, that would have been true even if the store wasn't filled with Christmas trees to hinder mobility, too, but still!

Caritas; Wednesday [12/08].

[somethingwithturquoise]

Some people kept a supply of potable water on hand for emergencies; Summer kept a supply of potable water on hand because she wasn't going to let eggnog in the pipes stop her from making her Wednesday night jello shots! And then got prepared to have people boggle over how she'd managed to still do her jello under the current circumstances as if basic emergency prep on an island where emeregencies happened all the time was, like, some mind blowing thing.

There were always a few.

One of them, apparently, was Tino, but she was not even going to give that the time of day, considering he was also making a big deal out of just cocoa and eggnog coming out of the beertaps as if bottled beer didn't exist or something.

Sometimes, she was pretty sure he was just like this on purpose.

Either way, there was booze, there was karaoke, there were at least two Christmas trees there since Summer had agreed to take two of them from the store earlier as if that would even make a dent in their overflow supply, and it was Wednesday, baby!

Dite's Decadent Delights | Wednesday

[begmetwice]

No, Irene didn't really want to talk about why she was a touch less done up than usual. You were a bright bunch, Fandom. Perhaps it had something to do with how she'd had to get ready using a gallon of water she'd had stashed for emergencies.

Perhaps.

In any case, today she'd stuck a sign at the front of the door, beside her Christmas display:

Get your stocking stuffed with a Dite's gift card! Perfect for the impossible-to-buy-for friend on your list!

And now to wait for people brave enough to actually give friends -- or, god forbid, family -- spending money at this shop.

[open and OCD-free since I'm on tiny school wifi today!]

Wellspring Arms Firing Range, Wednesday

[grenadesandohana]

Steve had made arrangements with the shop owner to use the shooting range on a weekly basis, but that didn't mean he wasn't there early to give the entire place an obsessive inspection himself. He had pulled out ear, eye and head protection (safety was more important than looking particularly great) and he was checking his weapon one more time as he waited for Will to arrive. "I'm not teaching you how to shoot," he told the little green face he caught peeking around the corner. "You're like a foot tall."

[OOC: Expecting one, but public post and all that.]

J,GOB, Wednesday afternoon

[myfifthrodeo]

Rosa had an appointment on the island to look at an apartment she'd found advertised on Craig's List, but the less time she spent in the MICA dorms with her perpetually stoned roommate, the better. So she got to the island a bit early, figuring she could get the lay of the land and figure out if it was actually a place she thought she could live.

It looked, to her admittedly limited experience, very European. And there was art everywhere. She'd spotted at least a few murals graffiti-ed onto buildings as she walked in from the causeway, and while there were two bars (one for locals, one for tourists, she assumed, or maybe one was LGBT and the other was for the straights?), there were also plenty of places to eat or grab a snack that didn't look like they catered too much to the drugs-and-booze crowd.

So, you know, her sponsor would approve, at least.

She decided to grab a seat in the little bakery she found, tucked in by the window where she could people-watch as she picked apart her cinnamon strudel muffin. And try once again to google "Baltimore neighborhoods Fandom" and find out a little more about this weird little place she was looking to move to.

[HELLO A NEWBIE IS IN TOWN! Considering the number of graffiti artists we've had on the island already, I figure there should be at least a few murals for my little graffiti artist to be impressed by.

So very open!]

The Perk - Wednesday Afternoon

[onlyajones]

Yes Jo had already had her fill of hot cocoa back at the dorms and she could have as much as she wanted but well there was something for tradition and she liked coming to the Perk after her classes had finished for the week.

So she still had her usual hot cocoa, she did tip a bit extra because she felt a bit guilty about drinking the hot cocoa at the dorm and sat at her normal seat by the window to enjoy her drink.

[open!
