fandomtownies | The Magpie Emporium; Friday [06/23].

Considering that Steph herself was the one really organizing this whole Pride celebration thing this weekend, Graham sure hoped she wouldn't mind if he'd brought some of his work from home into his regular work so that he could have a little more time to try and finish. The little rainbow overlay he was trying to sew together for his cloak was taking a bit longer than he'd anticipating, and since Fridays were usually pretty quiet except for his usual visitors and the game when he was done with his shift, he figured it wouldn't hurt to bring his sewing in and work on it at the counter.

Of course, he did not take into account that if you had a bit of material that you were trying to work on in the presence of a cat, that cat will sit right in the middle of it and make progress just a bit difficult.

"Now you choose to acknowledge that I exist, huh?" asked Graham, with a frown and a sigh, but, honestly? For Saffron actually spending some time with him, even if it was just to sit on his sewing? He'll still take it as a win!

At least you don't have to worry about getting in the cat's way, she'd clearly made herself comfortable on Graham's work.

He could use the distraction from trying to decide whether or not he should actually risk petting Saffron, since he can't exactly work on his overlay at the moment.

True to his word Guillermo had tried making rainbow churros, he hadn’t quite figured out how to make rainbow empanadas but he did have a few containers of his failed attempts as well as his usual selection of containers of empanadas and churros, “hi, I have the snacks for tonight,” he smiled brightly as he peered round his large stack of containers.

Charlie, Charlie, Charlie was here! And very cheerful it seemed!

Come grab some games, a table, maybe even some friends, and have some fun!

Graham, of course, appreciated all treats and snacks, but if anyone happened to bring anything that could be particularly enticing to a cat to lure them off someone's still sadly unfinished rainbow overlay, they were definitely getting Inspiration tonight.

Vi brought more rainbow themed candy, and perhaps more importantly for Graham's overlay, her presence led to Saffron bounding over to demand the snuggles she'd been cruelly denied by Vi's absence.

Excuse Graham a moment, as he just sort of gawked at Vi and Saffron, his attention going from them, to where his overlay was, and then back again to them.

Then he sighed and snapped his fingers and shook his head. "If I'd have known that would work," he said, "I'd have called you earlier to come and help!"

...now he wondered if he could multitask, managing both DMing and sewing!

"Sorry, she can be kind of a brat," Vi said, even as she obligingly picked Saffron up. "Little Bot's usually a pretty good distraction for her."

Libby had to get up pretty early in the morning to catch a portal and meet up with Zo for the trip to Nashville, but that wasn't going to stop her from missing tonight's session! Especially not when veggie trays lent themselves to being very thematic for the weekend.

"Hey graham! Good to see you" Kurt said with a smile when he arrived, bag in hand. "How have you been? Ready for the fun weekend ahead?"

"Hey, Kurt!" Graham met that smile with one of his own. "And I'm doing great, thanks! How are you? It sounds like you're ready for the weekend, if my notes this morning are anything to go by!"

"Aye yeah" Kurt said rubbing the back of his head with a shy grin. "Looking forward to it all. Shame Libby wont be around for it but... we're going to Facetime and chat tomorrow so it'll... kinda be like we are together in a way anyways."

"Sorry about missing last week, you guys," Graham offered, first and foremost, when it was actually time to get started, "I got stuck in some locker? It was kind of wild, I'll tell you about it later if you'd like to hear more, but for now, let's get back into the game!

"Where we left off last time," he recapped, "we are all resting up after our big bandit fight, and something was about to happen, interrupting Esthrana and Madame Giest about to have a discussion. Unfortunately, it is so subtle, so quiet, that nearly everyone failed to notice....everyone except Esthrana, and the previously sleeping Wind Over Surf. Esthrana, you, despite your attempts to focus on what Madame Giest has to say, notice a strange, small dark figure weaving through the camp; Wind, you notice that there seems to be something approaching you, pulling you out of your slumber as you feel it attempt get into your things."

His eyes darted between Libby and Vi.

"What do you do?"

Vi considered her options. "Wind's gonna try pouncing on it."

"Hmm," Graham, too, considered some options. "Give me...either an acrobatics check or animal handling, whichever you feel works best."

Vi rolled. "Eighteen."

Graham's grin brightened. "Which one did you go with?" he asked, even though he was pretty sure he had a good guess. "That will make a difference in how this plays out next."

"Acrobatics," Vi said, now thoroughly intrigued. "Animal handling would've been a seventeen."
