Pick Your Poison, Saturday

[crimson_sister]

Lucille was arranging new products on the shelves, and then, since it would most likely be a quiet day, sat down to read. First a collection of poetry, and then a novel, marking places with poems and quotes she needed to read to Tisarwat. It was lovely to have a friend who shared her interest, and who wanted to learn how to play the piano and who had the most beautiful lilac eyes.

No, obviously she didn't actually think that last part.

"Not goin' to the picnic?" Iris teased lightly, dropping in around lunch with take-out from Sushi Station. "Hey, Lucille."

[crimson_sister]

"Iris," Lucille said. "No, I decided not to. Have you been there?"

[intraspective]

"Nah," she said easily. "Ain't really callin' to me today. How you've been?"

[crimson_sister]

"I've settled in," Lucille said. "I feel sure it was the right choice to come here. And you?"

[intraspective]

"I'm well enough," Iris said lightly. Was she sure it was right to stay? No.

But she was good at winging it.

"Been keepin' busy? Anything you think the store needs?"

[crimson_sister]

"Busy?" Lucille smiled.

"I think we have what we need on the shelves. Do you have any new products that you're considering?"

On the shelves or otherwise.
