Wellspring Arms, Tuesday

[thedadalorian]

Did Din even know if he had employees? No, of course not. Because if he did, he'd know this was on of them's usual day to work. Which was why he was there, cleaning his rifle while the kid wandered around the shop, hopefully not getting into any trouble.

Maybe he needed to pick up some toys that weren't just a knob from his ship.

Maybe.

Sabine had practically torn up her half of the room looking for one of her sketchbooks before realizing that she'd probably left it at the shop before the trip. So she'd just pop in here to get it...

"Somehow not a surprise to see you in here," she said. It was kind of a surprise to see him this comfortable in there though.

[thedadalorian]

"That makes one of us," he replied, only pausing in what he was doing for a moment to assess how much of a threat she would be.

[seriesofbaddecisions]

"You didn't expect to be a Mandalorian in a weapons shop?" she said, looking around for where the kid might be.

[thedadalorian]

"I didn't expect to see you here," Din corrected, snapping a part into place.

The kid was napping on a pile of pillow that might have been arranged for him to play on. It was unreasonably adorable.

[seriesofbaddecisions]

"It's not my day," Sabine said, going behind the counter to find her book. "I left this."

Faye was around though, right?

[thedadalorian]

Was the sigh necessary? No. But there it was. "You work here."

Of course she did.

[seriesofbaddecisions]

"I'm the acting manager," she corrected.

[flourish_or_perish]

Faye sauntered in at her usual fifteen-minutes-after-she-was-scheduled time. "You're still here?" she noted, surprised.

Also weird that he was here and in the place where she worked, hm. But mostly she found it noteworthy how he was still here on the island, period.

[thedadalorian]

"For now," he replied, eyeing her for a moment. "Do you work here too?"

Did he have employees?

[flourish_or_perish]

"Yep. On Tuesdays." Which was today, you know. "What d'you mean too?" Faye asked, frowning.

[thedadalorian]

"Apparently I own the place now." Greef. Whyyyyy?

[flourish_or_perish]

"Oh, gross, do I have a boss now?" Faye was concerned. It had been really good just working for/with a teenager who never really checked on her.

[thedadalorian]

"Apparently." Because, real talk, he knew nothing about being a business owner. "What do you do here?"

Because he was just hanging out with the kid, planning his next move.

[flourish_or_perish]

"I...clean guns." That was the closest thing to 'something worth being paid for' she could come up with, since mostly she read magazines.

Normally Lana would wait until Sabine's day to visit this place, but some things wouldn't wait.

She gave the Mandalorian behind the desk a faint look of curiosity and a nod, adjusting her approach to involve less small-talk than she'd been expecting. She held up the power pack from her lightsaber. "Good morning. Have you got a replacement for this?"

[thedadalorian]

"This isn't that sort of shop." Wanna know who had seen a laser sword before? Not this guy!

[unusual_sith]

You were getting a real side-eye now, Mandalorian person.

"You don't carry weapons-grade power packs? I'm sure Sabine has gotten hers here. I know we're on different times, but I'll take a newer one if I have to."

[thedadalorian]

"Not those kind," he replied dryly. "Maybe you should talk to Sabine if that's the case."

[unusual_sith]

Okay, Lana was now really confused. "What kinds do you have? I'll probably have to modify it for my saber anyway, so it doesn't have to be exact. You do carry power packs, and not just local bullets, right?"

[thedadalorian]

Din cocked his head a little bit, wondering if maybe she hadn't heard the 'check with Sabine' part of it.

Anakin was definitely not coming into this shop, nope. He was out for a walk past the shop, minding his own damn business and not looking for any Force-sensitive Yoda lookalikes.

Because seeing that youngling once had been quite enough.

[thedadalorian]

Yeah, but that just set him up for a youngling appearing in the doorway to blink at him with those big eyes. Had it been there before? Was this adorable child haunting Anakin?

Yes.

[sith_happened]

Did Anakin jump about a foot in the air and squeak like a six year old girl?

Nope. No one saw it and also shut up, Leroy. "Sithspit!"

[thedadalorian]

The kid sipped juice with a bendy straw, just watchin' him. Weren't you glad you stopped by to check on things?

[sith_happened]

Anakin fled left. In a normal, non-scurrying way.
