Groovy Tunes; Thursday [09/15].

[lilac_eyed_lieutenant]

Tisarwat was used to things just sort of showing up at the store without her having ordered anything; it made her job easier, really, because half the time, she didn't really even know what she was doing, but it also made her wonder if her job here truly was obsolete and pointless.

Either way, there'd been some new releases that came in that day, and she was giving them a cursory glance to note anything of interest before either adding them to the shelves or setting them aside to maybe display and feature. This batch was pretty unremarkable for her, though, until one sort of caught her eye.

"The Furnado Frog Band Extravaganza?" she read, frowning a little as she flipped the CD over to read the back of it to confirm that, yes, this was a CD of music by a band of frogs, apparently, with such exciting hits as 'Hop to It', 'Your Lilypad or Mine?', and, of course, 'It's Not Easy Being Green.'

She was curious enough to crack one open to read the liner notes, and, sure enough, yup, it was, indeed, that Furnado.

Now she felt almost compelled to play it in the store today.

It wasn't bad. Good beats, a little twangy, but the lead singer's voice was a little too croaking for her tastes.

Groovy Tunes is open!

The Magpie Emporium, Thursday (9/15)

[drumsticksandd20s]

Apparently the gremlins had been having fun last night. When Steph came in and started prepping the store for opening, she noticed that they'd arranged a lot of the miniatures that she kept for people to use if they needed them into a no-holds-barred PVP battle royale scene.

... which she was going to spend a lot of today elaborating upon, because yeah, it was fun.

[OOC: Open, I say as I rush out the door...]

The Park, Thursday afternoon

[stykera]

The weather was very pleasant today and it seemed like a good day for a walk around the island. As usual when Stark was feeling a little restless and in need of a walk he ended up stopping at the Perk before heading to the park.

Having walked enough for the moment he sat on what was apparently his favorite bench near the pond to drink today's very sugary iced coffee (it was pumpkin spice season so he needed to get those while he could) and watch the birds in the water.


[I have another 7 or 8 hours left in my workday and I've been here since 8:30 please entertain me]

Trooper Station, Friday

[pocketpretzels]

Yesterday's restlessness had eventually translated into sleeplessness, and so it was an exhausted Watts that stumbled his way into his office at the Trooper Station on Friday. After placing his hat on the corner of his computer monitor, he all but collapsed into his desk chair.

He'd only been sat down for what seemed like a minute before he felt his eyelids begin to droop. He was startled back awake, however, when the hand he'd been resting his cheek on slipped, leaving him suddenly without support.

This just wouldn't do. He thought about asking one of the Troopers to do a run to the Perk (yes, the station had coffee, but the less said about that the better), but quickly dismissed that idea. Most of them were already out on patrol, and Ralph... well. Let's just say Ralph wasn't allowed to make Perk runs anymore. For reasons.

He gave the space under his desk a speculative look. There was just enough space-

Shrugging out of his suit jacket, he bundled it into a makeshift pillow and curled up on the floor underneath the desk. Just a few minutes of shut-eye, then he'd be right as rain...
