T42 - Thursday 6am-6pm

Hernando was still in a very good mood. He had Valentine's Day plotting to accomplish. He hummed to himself while he puttered around the store. Feeding the quokka and checking the weekend weather report. It was supposed to dip below freezing over the weekend. He checked some of the usual canisters on the wall of doom to make sure there was nothing he would run out of. It was a somewhat futile gesture; the store would never let him run out of tea he was sure but he wanted it to know that he noticed what a good job it was doing.

When he began to place the pastries out, he noticed they all had some form of dark chocolate included. Small pastry cups of dark mousse, brownies, cookies, small dark chocolate cups filled with fruit compote, and the now ever-present cupcakes. A small box of cream-filled chocolates was in the drawer and while the store did not usually carry candies, he plated those up in a decorative heap as well.

Hernando raised his eyebrows and checked his phone. Oh. That was why. He smiled and patted the counter.

One of the smaller quokka made a leap for the counter only to be tackled by a flying Dave who boxed its ears and churbled angrily at it. Hernando waited until Dave was done with herd discipline and had returned to his bed in front of the fire before scooping up the smaller mammal and carrying it over to see - but keeping it in hand so it could not leap - what was on the counter.

"You must not eat these. I am certain they smell strange and possibly delicious to you but they are made with chocolate and that is usually a bad thing for small animals to eat. Come; we will find you a piece of carrot instead." He went and found a small carrot for the quokka and sent it off with its treat.

The pussywillows were also purring and making small meows so he made sure to spend time admiring and petting them also. He was glad he'd brought them home. It still amused him a little that the one Peter had claimed was still kitten shape and had been named. Hernando spent a little time sitting in a chair near the plants. Telling the former kittenwillows who were now just smaller willows all about their sibling. In case they missed it.

It was one of Sparkle's 'nothing to do' days, and so he was going to opt, with a grin on his face, to make his way over to see if Hernando was also having a 'nothing to do' day.

Had nothing at all to do with the pastel sakura motif on his fingernails today, no. Honest.

"Well, hello, handsome," he greeted as he stepped into the shop. "How's my favourite art professor tod-ohmygod are those things purring?"

THE PLANTS WERE KITTIES. KIND OF.

"Oh, man, that's awesome," Sparkle laughed, leaning in for a kiss before resting his forehead against Hernando's. Happy smile. Happy Sparkle. "None of my plants purr. They just kinda show they're happy by being... you know. Not dead."

Good way for a plant to be.

"Oh my goooood," Sparkle crooned, giving a little wiggle in place as he pictured it. "Little puffy kitten plants. Little puffy kitten plants. Sometimes I love this stupid island."

Sometimes.

"I hope they do," Sparkle decided. "That? Is way too frickin' cute."

He wanted one.

Atton would freak. So he didn't want one that badly. Probably.

"Anyway," he added, meeting him for yet another kiss, "hi."

He hadn't come here to get sidetracked by pussy willows. But that didn't hurt either.

"It's been good and just getting better," Sparkle decided. "Helped a friend move in, nothing's blown up yet," he reached a hand up to tap his knuckles on the side of his head, wood a little out of reach for the moment, "did my nails up nice, and now I'm in good company, too. No complaints here. How about you?"

"Flaaatterer," Sparkle accused with a little laugh. "And I'm not complaining."

Not even a little bit.

"You know what we need to do? We still need to make plans for a date four. I know I would like a date four."

Pushy.

Sparkle blinked, taking a moment to process all that.

"Huh, not-- oh. Fuck." He laughed a little. "It's family holidays I don't do... good. You should see me on like Halloween."

Best. Holiday. Ever.

"I don't have plans with Leto yet, though. I usually figure his family gets the holidays themselves. Alice and Hania get dibs. Especially Hania."

He loved that kid.

"Plans... I would like plans."

"Thursday through Saturday, suit and tie," Sparkle echoed grinning. "I'm yours."

Boom. Excellent. Three day date? He wouldn't complain about that.

"And I mean, we could do both. I'm always a sucker for a good adventure, though."

So long as it wasn't too adventurous.

"Zoooooooooo. Oh no," Sparkle laughed, leaning his head to the side a little. "If we do the zoo, that means you get to see me low-key plotting to run away with like everything there."

"Can't hurt," Sparkle laughed. "One of these days I'm totally making off with a baby tiger."

Whether there were baby tigers there at the time or not, dammit.

"Yeah, the tiger would probably live in the clothing shop," Sparkle decided. "Since Atton hates cats so much."

It was a sad, sad life, being a cat lover with a cat-hater roommate.

"Actually thought about getting a cat for there? But, like, me and my one employee aren't enough company for a cat, I'd have to go to work every day just to hang out."

Sparkle considered this for a long moment.

"I'd ask if maybe they have mini-tigers out there in the multiverse somewhere," he noted, "but I'm pretty sure that's just cats."

"I would probably feed it meat sometimes too, as a treat," Sparkle mused. "I had a cat once, you know? When I was living in the dorms here. Ended up giving him to another student when I went back to Toronto, couldn't have a cat in my living situation there, you know? He was a good little guy. Clingy. I called him Velcro."

Velcro had been the best cat, dammit.
