Caritas; Wednesday [12/22].

[somethingwithturquoise]

Maybe it was surprising, maybe it really actually wasn't that Summer seemed completely unaffected by having apparently been stuck in a time loop and generally losing a few days; like, it wasn't she'd have expected out of Fandom, but it wasn't anything new? Granted, this was a woman whose grandfather had a whole room dedicated to storing memories he'd extracted out of his family's head on a regular basis, so gaps were just sort of a thing.

She was mostly just glad that a) it hadn't messed with her bar shifts and b) she had a new excuse in her pocket for whenever she failed to make an appearance at home for holidays and stuff. Seriously, whoops, stuck in a timeloop, lol! could became a new classic.

Either way, she was also glad that those little elf guys were running around today, because some of her jello shots this evening (okay, one jello shot specifically) had really put her blender to the test that morning, but, look at that, as soon as it started to break down as if she was finally going a step too far in her crimes against jello and alcohol, there were the elves to fix it up again, almost shiny and new.

She doubted they would have as much luck with Tino.

"Yeah," she told them, watching them as they dedicatedly turned their hammers and tools on Tino's feet, "it's going to take way more than elf magic to fix that."

Covent Garden Flowers; Wednesday [12/22].

[white_oleander]

It was still taking Astrid some time to adjust to the fact that...time was back to normal, which was why, when she realized that it actually was Wednesday, she made sure to go into the flower shop for her shift, just to try and wrangle back some sense of routine and normalcy and hopefully get her days back in order. And while she handled some holiday orders, she thought that she really hadn't done any pot smashing lately, where she'd carefully choose a few pots to smash on the ground and then put back together in new and interesting ways, sort of like a more bohemian version of kintsugi.

Of course, that was when she discovered the elves running around today, who repaired the pots almost as quickly as she'd broken them.

Right. So no flower pot reconstruction today! Instead, Astrid supposed she'd just sit behind the counter with her watercolors and paint out some small holiday-theme cards to slip into the orders she was working on today, just as a little something extra.

Covent Garden is open!

The Perk, Wednesday morning

[intheeyeofthebeholding]

Jon was aware that Jo was at home now, but he'd gotten used to coming here on Wednesdays by now. And after this weekend, he felt good and didn't want to just sit around his flat.

So, he was getting his usual tea and sitting at the window with a book and his phone, watching the people and occasional industrious elf pass by. If he was a bit wistful about not having anyone to spend the holidays with, that was his own affair.

Dite's Decadent Delights | Wednesday

[begmetwice]

'Twas three days 'til Christmas, and Irene was looking to make sure she made the most of her last week before the holiday. A surprising -- well, less surprising to Irene but she was Irene -- number of people had come in for gifts for their partners, rather than to just peruse the sexy Christmas tree or the somewhat questionable display she'd set up just inside the doors.

There were multiple candy-striped toys, as well as other festive choices. And given that most of the gifts she had sold had been meant to be used together, Irene had even gone so far as to draw up a few couples' bundles.

And the woman herself was no exception when it came to the festivities, since she'd dressed for the occasion, and had tuned the shop's music to a sexy, jazzy, holiday soundtrack.

The elves were a nice touch, too. Fun to watch them, even more fun how they seemed to be cleaning up after her.
