Covent Garden Flowers, Friday (12/11)

[notarockharpist]

So Yasha was back now. She'd gotten in very late last night, and sure, Beau had warned her about the weird time difference thing, but she was still pretty damn disoriented by how spending several months just... trying to find answers (without much success) translated to only about a month's absence here.

But she was supposed to be at work today, and she felt guilty about missing several weeks, so despite a nasty case of portal lag she'd come in at her scheduled time with a cardboard carton full of coffee. (Which was not quite what she'd meant when she'd asked for the biggest coffee they had at the Perk, but apparently her groggy, confused grumbling just added to her whole intimidating look and the poor barista had nearly had a panic attack, charged her for just a large cup of coffee, and given her this.)

The holiday-themed flowers fascinated her, though, and she soon forgot the worst of her tiredness in an intrigued haze of familiarizing herself with every single one of them.

[OOC: Guess who failed yet another wisdom save last night? THIS GIRL. AND ALSO MY OTHER ONE. *facepalm* -_-

...open, though I'll be in and out running errands for a bit.]

If Yasha was likely to look closer to that small box under the counter, she might notice it had her name on it, written in ink. The box contained two books, a collection of 19th century poetry, and Lucille's second copy of Frankenstein.

She did look at it, as it happened -- not so much because she noticed it had her name on it as because she nearly knocked it to the floor, caught it, and then saw her name on it.

After a few moments of looking warily at the box she opened it, very cautiously, and she inhaled a sharp little breath.

"Oh," she murmured, and took a few moments to wash her hands and make sure they were dry before picking up the poetry book and flipping through it. It would be a good way to spend her lunch break, and then probably the rest of her evening after that.
