Fandom Museum- Monday

[anomaly_research_nerd]

Connor showed up that morning, arms full of folders and a couple of small boxes. He gave a sigh of relief when he got in and saw there was no to-do list from Blathers and no new folders to read through. This was good. He had things to work on.

Setting down the boxes and folders, Connor began unloading the pieces of tech he had brought back from the apartment. Once they were all set out he started on the somewhat daunting task of organizing the random papers in the folders.

If anyone needed him, Connor was at the front desk.

The Photo Hut; Monday [10/03].

[hashtag_chocobro]

There wasn't really a whole lot that needed doing around the Photo Hut that Monday (or most Mondays, really). Just a few new things coming in and Prompto taking care of putting those where they needed to go, especially the heavier stuff that he wouldn't want to leave for Liz to handle, and that was fine. It was definitely still kind of an adjustment, getting used to the much slower paced and less, you know, life-threatening day-to-day here on the island, but it was nice. Peaceful. And the extent of activity going on with Prompto's phone right now made up for the lack of activity going on in the store.

He was leaning with his elbows on the counter as he poured over various texts and responses, mostly with Summer, because he'd been thinking about something a lot, which only solidified in his brain as he was working that morning. And, of course, what started out as him asking her about potentially picking up a job there blew up into all sorts of other things, mostly about Gladio being back and what that meant for Ignis, and also at least one threat not to hire him unless he shaved off his beard, which Prompto pointed out was discrimination and he'd sue, and she said she'd like to see him try, and then he asked if this was all because of him, and that shut her up about that real quickly.

And when he wasn't texting Summer, he was texting Gladio, mostly links to the weather reports that said they might be in for some rain this week, so maybe he shouldn't be camping in the preserve when there was a perfectly good couch at their place, and Gladio insisting it was fine and Prompto rolling his eyes a lot and somehow managing to agree to meet him for fishing at some point.

And when he wasn't doing either of those things, he was making at least a few more attempts to get a call through to Iggy. Nothing, though, of course, but after talking with Summer, he realized he should probably just try again in two weeks...

The Photo Hut is open!

Furnado Animal Shelter; Monday [10/03].

[kawaii_complex]

One of the cats was a little under the weather that day, which made Sakaki feel absolutely heartbroken, but it was a good, rare opportunity for her to spend a little time with the vet doing actual veterinarian work, which was the whole reason she was here, after all.

Almost as heartbreaking was the fact that, despite being sick, the cat in question still decided that the whole of her checkup was going to be conducted with her teeth sunk painfully into Sakaki's hand. But it allowed the vet to do what she needed to do, so she was just going to brace herself against the pain until she was finished, and then allow the vet to check up on her once they finally managed to pry the cat off of her.

So it was with a very bandaged and cradled hand that she attempted to go about the rest of her day, but she did so with a bright smile on her face, because the cat in question was already clearly feeling better, and that was what mattered, in the end.

Furnado is open!

Turtle & Canary; Monday [10/03].

[somethingwithturquoise]

After portaling her students and her co-teacher around her dimension's space for a little bit that morning, Summer headed into the store to find that the place was absolutely filled with butterflies and hummingbird, which, yes, okay, very pretty, but for someone who had been dealing with a screaming sun and a planet made of dessert-like snacks, she found herself weirdly focused on logistics.

"Look," she eventually said, shaking her head and holding up a hand to stop Apu from continuing to try to explain, "I don't think I really want to know exactly how you managed to get all these butterflies and hummingbirds in here. I don't think I even want to know what you plan on doing with them all after today. All I know is that cleaning up after them is definitely all on you, man."

She had work to do.

And, apparently, a lot of texting, because apparently what chocobros did when they got back was bug her about shit, whether it be a job or camping gear, but at least she knew why she needed to order way more Cup Noodles than usual this week.

Diaz & Ass.; Monday [10/03].

[died8yearsago]

Rosa was deep in some investigative work that morning, although it wasn't for a job, it was for herself, because if they were going to be heading to France for the school trip, especially around Paris, she probably needed to check in on a few things to avoid some potentially awkward remnants of her past when she lived out over there for a little while from catching up with her.

Granted, there was the whole 'different dimensions, blah blah blah' stuff to take into account, which meant she'd probably be fine, but it really wouldn't hurt to be safe rather than sorry on some of these people.

Besides, there was a little bit of enjoyment to be had out of looking up people you hated and seeing how miserable they were now. And anyone doing better than they deserved just gave her ideas that maybe she could have a little petty revenge before the trip, as a treat.

Diaz & Ass. is open!

Monday: Covent Garden Flowers

[mylandmyrules]

Nell was here, happily arranging flowers and caring for the plants. Somewhere, rummaging around in the back room or sleeping in a handy patch of sun were two kittens. Nell was happy, the plants were happy and the kittens were happy. What more could you ask for?

Perhaps a happy customer or visitor?

Trooper Station, Monday, October 3, 2022

[grenadesandohana]

Still haunted by what he'd seen on the baking show Friday, Steve was sworn off of carbs and weird interpretations of fish salad for at least a week.

Which, naturally, meant that every drawer he opened at the office was filled the the brim with Old Bay flavored goldfish crackers.

"Why?" he asked the Troopers, who shrugged.

The Trooper Station was open. And salty.

Pizza Planet, Monday

[carbsliftthespirit]

Raiden was in such a good mood from his great workout, out in nature with friends even, the day before that he was singing as he worked today at the Pizza Planet.

Apologies to everyone's eardrums.

The Devil's Nest, Monday, October 3, 2022

[texted3times]

Eric came in from the back office to find Tiny putting the finishing touches on his smörgåstårta: a carpet of green olives on top of his bread cake...thing. Of course.

Eric pointed at it. "No. No. You want it in Swedish, too?"

Sulkily, Tiny moved his smörgåstårta back under the bar.

"We will pretend this never happened," Eric informed him.

The Devil's Nest was open! Tiny would try to get you to drink aquavit tonight because he still had a theme even if Eric was being a destroyer of dreams.

Mystery Sign Theater 3000, Monday

[amitragic]

Ulysses was definitely not occasionally nodding off while manning the box office. Absolutely not.

... Ignore the occasional soft snores. He'd slept like shit last night, have mercy.

NOW SHOWING
Mates

MST3000 was open, and you could probably startle Uly awake to actually buy tickets.

The Magpie Emporium, Monday [3/10]

[giveittoyoursister]

Vi was having a day. She wasn't in a bad mood, exactly, or down, or upset, but by the same token she wasn't in a good mood either. Instead she was just kind of slumped over the counter, chin resting on her hands, watching at Little Bot zipped around the floor of the shop, carefully circling the patch of sunlight Saffron was sprawled out in.
