Demon Marcus, All Day Thursday

[boneyard_girl]

It was, officially, Ada's last day as a resident of Fandom Island.

In the untouched upstairs apartment she had stashed the battered steamer trunk and dufflebag she'd arrived on the island with ages ago, along with her new companion and accessories. She'd finish out this shift, lock up, and catch her portal at the Causeway directly to the Miller family ranch in Arizona.

It was early March at home. She'd have three days to get her trailer dusted off and in working order and her costumes prepped before they had to hit the road.

That was later. This was now, and now had Ada lounging out front of the store again with the sidewalk sale set up.

Demon Marcus was open, and your mermaid was in.

Hi, Ada. What's up?

[boneyard_girl]

Ada's phone beeped at her, and she fished it out of her pocket to flip through her texts, and frowned slightly.

coming where?

Shit, what had she forgotten this time?

party 4 u.

So no. Not forgotten.

[boneyard_girl]

Oh. Dante, you big softie.

my portal is after work she send back, chewing on her lower lip. think the gnomes would be willing to let me change times?

She'd been planning on texting him later, to see if he wanted to get lunch. Because neither of them were very good with people leaving, but food made most things better.

tell m u have sometin important 2 do

What? She did. And he wasn't acknowledging her leaving sober if she wasn't.

[boneyard_girl]

dante i don't think they count doing _people_ as important. Look, if she was actually going to stay tonight, she wasn't going to be staying alone, dammit.

same warehouse?

[rebelseekspizza]

same warehouse got plenty of glitter could always use more.

Dante'd go glare at the gnome if he had to.

[boneyard_girl]

sparkle probably won't mind if i leave my stuff at th' store, right? She had enough cat food and litter for the night, and she didn't think a night alone would be too horrible. shipped most of my glitter on ahead, tho. didn't realize i'd need to dress for a party.
