The Magpie Emporium, Thursday (6/2)
Right. So Steph had meant to have the store all decorated for the month yesterday, but in between the kraken drill and then the Wednesday shenanigans she'd been pretty much useless for doing much besides getting her box of Pride decorations from her place to the store.
So she was in early this morning and putting everything up. Her sparkly rainbow Pride sign went atop the center shelf in the comics section, where she'd put together a display of comics of various genres featuring queer characters; the lesbian pride flag that she usually kept hanging over her drums was up on the office door. A small collection of hand-lettered parade signs stood beside the dice displays, a dish of pins and buttons was up beside the register with a "TAKE ONE" sign beside it, and right square in the center of the front display window where it couldn't possibly be missed was a very large rainbow flag.
There were other decorations too, now: she'd spent a good chunk of time over the past few weeks painting entire miniature adventuring parties and equipping them with tiny signs and flags, and now there was a whole miniature Pride parade marching all along the length of one of the board game shelves in the center of the store's front room. There was a special "Spotlight on LGBTQIA+ Creators" display of games and sourcebooks, and of course the rack of D&D themed pride and pronoun pins. There would probably be even more added as the month went on and inspiration struck her.
If anyone needed Steph today, she'd be up at the register or in the office with her laptop and a couple dozen open browser tabs, doing research and scribbling away feverishly in a notebook. For Reasons.
[OOC: I am a normal amount emotional about the Pride memories part of LiS:TC Wavelengths. And the whole June section of it, really. Which I had to screenshot extensively for reference, naturally. Open!]
