Magic Box, Sunday, 02/05
Anders spent his first day at work in a few weeks sorting through the packaged that had arrived while he was away. Some of it was easy enough to take care of: Herbs on this shelf, books on that one, artifacts high up behind the counter.
Then he opened a box full of live newts -- not in separate tanks or anything, just slithering over each other and staring at him with beady eyes -- and slammed it shut again. He'd let them loose by the pond on the way home, but he wasn't paid nearly enough to sort them out and put each newt into a little terrarium with special newt food. (Where did you even by newt food, anyhow?)
He spent the rest of his shift behind the counter, trying to pretend he couldn't hear the lizards moving around inside their crate.
