Needful Things; Tuesday [11/21].
The counter at Needful Things was covered in old dirty soda cans and Summer was trying to have a pointed discussion with the customer who brought them in.
"Listen," she said as firmly as she could, "there is a really thin line between old antique and just plain old garbage. This stuff isn't even close to that line. Like, they don't even have their tabs anymore, so they wouldn't even be useful as post-apocalyptic currency, man."
But the customer wasn't ready to take no for an answer, and Summer acquiesced with a sigh. "Fine, fine, but I can't appraise them. Leave your phone number and I'll have Lady Ghanima take look. I wouldn't get your hopes up, though."
So a satisfied and placated customer left the store, and Summer promptly swiped the cans right into the garbage and went back to sweeping, whistling a little while she did.
Needful Things is open!
