Turtle & Canary; Wednesday [09/07].

[sake_shinigami]

Beer was not exactly Shunsui's preferred beverage of choice, but he could certainly appreciate it in certain contexts, and, as far as things Apu-san chose to feature in his never-ending quest to celebrate the most random things as dictated by some supposed national calendar, National Beer Lovers Day did not at all seem like a bad one. No one was going to argue about people getting discounts on their booze today, after all, least of all him, and the displays of featuring some local breweries and their best brews were a nice touch to the front of the store today.

What Shunsui could do without, however, was Apu-san's continued performance of '99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall', which wasn't so bad when he was in other parts of the store, but he could swear he timed his sweeping to bring him back up toward the counter while belting out out precisely at the momentswhen Shunsui was about to drift off into a good nap.

Perhaps it was giving the man too much credit to think that it was being done intentionally, but it was also too coincidental for him to assume it wasn't.

Caritas; Wednesday [09/07].

[somethingwithturquoise]

With Three Minute Dates coming up, Summer was absolutely prepared to convince anyone who wasn't already attached (and maybe a few people who were, just for funsies!) to participate if they weren't already planning on it, but mostly, she was trying to convince Tino to make sure to give her a very detailed run-down and recap of how it goes for everyone since she wasn't going to be around to get to witness it for herself.

Was she mostly mostly trying to convince him as a way to low-key brag about the big weekend away she had planned for her anniversary with her boyfriend over the weekend?

Yes, of course. Obviously. There were layers to her multitasking, this whole thing was working out very well for her as a whole for hitting several marks, thank you.

(In fact, her bragging about her epic get-away plans also served another purpose, as sort of a warning to Tino that he might be on his own next Wednesday, because, all things considered, knowing her and Barry? Something will probably go wrong this weekend and that something had a high chance of detaining/occupying them well into next week).

Fandom Trooper Station, Wednesday

[hatesparadise]

Nothing especially strange was happening so far today. Which was either a trick or a red letter day. Kind if fifty-fifty there.

Either way, Danny was going to take this as the opportunity to catch up on paperwork. Even if it was about the on-going investigation into an upside down pole in town.

Superheroing- Community Center- Wednesday

[throughaphase]

Kitty had sent messages to the class to meet at the Holoscene for class today, since an actual community center wouldn't cut it all of the time. And the only reason she didn't walk through the wall for this particular class was because she didn't know the tech well enough to know that she wouldn't short it out.

"Powers," she began. "Most superheroes have them. It's not a prerequisite, you can just be really skilled at something. But people do link superheroes and powers. You can even base your whole identity off of them, though I would personally recommend keeping that to your superhero identity and keeping your own stuff separate, but that's a topic for another class. And honestly, they're great for most people. I've also known people who have had powers that make it hard to fit in, were hard to contain, or just made life more difficult. It can be a mixed bag.

"I, for instance, can phase through solid objects," she said, dropping u to the floor up to her knees like it was nothing. "My natural state is intangible these days, and for the most part it's great. I haven't known where the keys to my office at the bar are for years and I don't need them anyway, I can get in anywhere, and most things can't hurt me. However twice now I've also gotten stuck intangible and had to be contained in tubes or suits so I didn't dissipate and die. Like I said, a mixed bag. So I want to know your powers, if you have them. If you can safely demonstrate your powers here, go for it. If there are downsides, you can talk about it. And then, we're gonna try some other stuff."

Dite's Decadent Delights | Wednesday

[begmetwice]

With Labor Day come and gone, fall was truly in the air (even if it maybe felt like several liters of water were actually in the air at all times.) And thus, with Irene's love and strict adherence to retail seasons, there was only one option as far as starting her eventually-ridiculous fall sex toy display: pumpkin spice flavored lubricant.

Honestly, it was a bit much (of course she'd tried it), but never let it be said that Irene Adler couldn't joyfully participate in being a bit of a basic bitch when the occasional called for it.

[open, naturally]

Fix 'n Clean, Wednesday

[not_of_the_nora]

The one condition for access to a living space had been that Aloy get at least one dayshift of work every week. She wasn't familiar enough - nor did she care - with local customs to realize that was unusual.

Dwight had given her a job, which meant access to tender and housing - that was all she really needed. And so she came in early, the beginnings of a motherboard and a sack of scavenged parts in her backpack, and grabbed a seat near the counter.

She'd be working on her computing project for the rest of the day, if no one came in.

The Magpie Emporium, Thursday (9/8)

[drumsticksandd20s]

It was technically fall now even though it didn't feel like it, and Steph wasn't yet consciously aware of what was creeping up in a few weeks. It would hit her eventually, but if last year was anything to go by -- when the anniversary of the storm came and went before she even realized it -- she might not feel it as badly as she used to.

But that was a question for future Steph, anyway. Present Steph was too busy tidying up the comic shelves, moving a couple of months' worth of titles out of the new releases section because oops, she maybe kind of forgot to maintain the comics section of the store on a regular basis.

Saffron was curled up asleep atop a shipping box of brand new miniatures that were waiting to be unpacked and put into inventory; she had her back very pointedly turned to Steph, but Steph would swear that the cat was judging her for her oversight anyway.
