Tuesday: Groovy Tunes

[wildgalegirl]

Taking Tisarwat at her word, Charlie had decided to surprise her new boss and turned up Tuesday to work. Who knew? Maybe she'd come back tomorrow as well. Charlie was nothing if not unpredictable.

It didn't take her long to get the sound system playing some Great Big Sea and soon she was bopping along and singing as she explored her new domain. Any visitors might catch her belting out one of the songs or perched on the counter playing along. Not to worry, though, Charlie was absolutely interruptable.

Groovy Tunes was open!!

And, of course, Tisarwat was swinging by, both to do a little work and to see if Charlie actually showed up (and if not today, then tomorrow), and she grinned to see that she was already there.

"So," she said, "Tuesdays it is, then?"

[wildgalegirl]

"Seems like a good day to me," Charlie said. "If that works well enough for you!"

[lilac_eyed_lieutenant]

Tisarwat shrugged her shoulder. "You may have noticed," she said, "I run a pretty loose ship here."

Somehow, running a music store didn't seem like it required quite the discipline a Sword or a Justice or even a Mercy did.

"Might need you to just fill out a little paperwork to make it official, and then you're good to go."

[wildgalegirl]

"I can do that," Charlie said, "Just point the way to the paperwork."

[lilac_eyed_lieutenant]

"Over behind the counter," said Tisarwat, who did not actually point, that seemed like it would be a little rude, but she did head that way.

And over by the counter was also everything she had for making tea while she was here, and if they were doing paperwork, it would also be rude not to offer some.

"Would you like tea?"

It was a whole things, Charlie, you'll get used to it.

[wildgalegirl]

Charlie was a roll with it kind of gal herself and while tea might not be her first go to, she was fond of it. "Tea would be lovely, thanks. Something to sip on while I fill out forms."

[lilac_eyed_lieutenant]

Tisarwat got the forms she needed Charlie to fill out and a pen and then set to making some tea.

"So, where are you from, Charlie?" she asked as she worked. "What got you into music?"

Apparently, interviews were to be conducted after giving the person a job now.

"I'm a Gale Girl out of East Darsden - not far from Toronto. Canada. Up north," she said in case none of that had meant anything to her new boss. "I've been musically inclined for as long as I can remember. I think I probably sang before I could talk. I borrowed a cousin's guitar when I was still pretty wee and begged my father for my own."

She smiled at her. "Haven't stopped since and haven't found much music that I don't like - or at least appreciate."

For the Inspection in Search of the Holy Grail

Charlie led the way in. "This way, your Majesty. And Brave Sir Robin, who may still not eat the bard."

King Arthur and Patsy pranced galloped their way after the new minstrel to this supposed music shop, and he looked around with a look of consternation. Nothing here seemed particularly Grail-like or like it would even hold such a divine thing.

"Minstrel," he said, "where would you suggest we begin our search?"

"There are all sorts of instruments back there," she said, "So who knows."

Did she dare send them to the basement in search of the possible tangled headphone monster? Maybe not.
