Turtle & Canary; Tuesday [08/08].
It was pretty amazing what one little man with a little toolbox could accomplish if he set his mind to it. The fixes and repairs that the Merchant of Miracles had cobbled together for the store weren't the best..in fact, they looked absolutely awful and not even remotely sustainable...but they worked, somehow, in defiance of all laws of physics and gravity. It looked like one small errant sigh or an accidental brush up-against would make the whole thing crash down to the floor again, but...they held. They held surprisingly well.
The aesthetics of it, however, was something that even the Merchant would agree needed some improvement. So he was busy at the counter today, going through his heavy book of contacts, prowling the names for someone who might potentially owe him enough of a favor that they could come in and do it for him fast and cheap.
He consulted, of course, with the unicorns. "The troll guild? Nah, they work too slow, takes them a whole day just to make one decision, and even then, it's the decision on whether or not they're ready to decide! Anyone in Daventry's right out, they've been working on that Floating Island for ages and it still looks like crap. Hmmm, hmmm, let's see...those squirrels of Avalon are pretty industrious. I wonder if Princess Madeline has it in with any of these squirrels here, maybe she could pull some strings, get us a nice little squirrel construction dealio goin' on..."
Too bad Princess Madeline didn't particularly care for the Merchant of Miracles. That silly squirrel had some serious strudel-related hang-ups.

"Lolotte?" he snorted at one of the unicorn's apparent suggestions. "Really? You want to deal with all those flying monkeys around here? No, thank you!"
Although, if he thought about it, it didn't seem like a bad idea, he just knew from personal experience how difficult those monkeys could be unless you had a lot of bananas on hand.
