Turtle & Canary; Tuesday [07/23].
Well. Summer had gone ahead and met the Mysterious Pink Coat Guy for steamed buns and sake...or, at least, she tried to. It turned out that that particular conbination, especially with what the island was going through at the moment, was a little difficult to come by, and Summer was absolutely not taking Shunsui up on his suggestion that they grab the steamed buns and relocate to his apartment for the sake, because what century was this guy even from where he thought weird old dudes bringing young women they'd just met to their apartments was even remotely an okay option? But, while they were standing there, working out the logistics of this supposed business meeting, the island opened itself up in a rift around them and landed them right smack dab in the middle of some dark and creepy mine.
A mine that was crawling with slimes.
Slimes that Shunsui, even though he was the one with the weapons right now, didn't want to hurt because he thought they were "cute."
CUTE!
"Yeah, okay, dude, whatever," said Summer, exasperated, as she watched Shunsui just go ahead and pick up one of those slines and start cooing at it. "Do whatever you want with the slimes, but can we at least take care of the super creepy shadow men coming at us right now?"
That, at least, seemed to get Shunsui started, and Summer, who didn't feel much like just sort of standing there and letting the man do all the fighting, managed to somehow convince him to let her take one his two swords and they spent a good deal of the time vanquishing anything that wasn't slime (okay, okay, so maybe Summer killed a few of them when Shunsui wasn't looking. What? They were definitely going to attack her, okay?), and in the midst of all that, they got to talking, because what else were they going to do? They were trapped in a monster-filled mine with no way yet of knowing how to get back to Fandom. And really, after Apu had built it up so much, all it really seemed like was that Shunsui wanted a job. Well, wanted was using the term losely, he mostly just needed it to provide a reason on why he would even be there, Summer wasn't going to ask too many questions, but, yeah, if all he wanted was a job, she had more than enough space for another employee.
The monsters cleared, covered in all sorts of unidentifiable gunk, Summer and Shunsui slumped on the wall, took a seat to rest a little, while Shunsui sang songs and recited poetry to his new slime friends and offered to name one after Summer, an offer that SUmmer appreciated but would politely ask that he maybe not.
And then, just like that, they were back on the island, in Turtle & Canary specifically. Summer. Shunsui. Apu...
...and about two dozen of those slime things.
"Oh, well, that's just great!" said Summer, watching as the slimes made absolutely no delay in clearly making the shop their home as she stood up and tried to wipe some monster gunk off her hands on her pants, and her attention shifted to Shunsui. "You want a job, huh? Well, you can start today by taking care of all these slimes, since you're the one who loves them so much."
Apu, confused, but starting to piece things together, opened his mouth to say something but Summer, on her way to grab a towel from off the shelf, cut him off. "Just don't ask, Apu. Just don't ask!"
