fandomtownies | Fandom Post Office, June 4 (Tuesday)

Éponine might have been more relieved to see the post office restored to its usual state -- and no more of that bottlecaps-as-currency business, or any of the other trappings of the previous week -- except that the ground-shipping tortoises were being far too informative about their routes.

She appreciated their attempts to help, truly she did, but they seemed intent on telling her absolutely everything they could about any potential upcoming delays they could anticipate, offering several dozen suggestions on ways to make things run more efficiently, or volunteering to take on an extra shift here and there.

And, because they were tortoises, doing so very, very slowly.

It would all take far too much time out of her day if she were to actually hear them all out, so she kept about her duties as she half-listened to them and maybe made the occasional mental note.

Luckily, they seemed not to notice any lack of attention on her part, and Cosette might have gotten a text message from her at some point in the day: you ought to come by for a visit today. the animals are all acting an awful lot like you. Which she meant affectionately, really.

[OOC: Post office/post open, with a continued SP disclaimer of omg please save me.]
