Fandom Island Museum, Thursday Daytime

[hasaknightjob]

There was a new delivery of Fandom Island Museum postcards and fridge magnets come in. Inventory wasn't the most glamorous of jobs, but in this case Steven didn't mind counting through them all to make sure the numbers were right. Once that was done he'd get them set up on the displays for sale.

It was easy enough work, though it did require concentrating. So any visitors who came in and needed Steven would likely find him behind the desk, frowning and counting under his breath as he counted.

Steven smiled at him. "Yes. Like the ones we have."

[pocketpretzels]

Well it wasn't as if Watts had contributed any! That was Steven's and possibly even Marc's work, there. Hence the slight hesitation. Still, Steven emphasizing the we made him feel warm and pleased. "Could I purchase one?" he asked. "A magnet, that is."

[hasaknightjob]

Steven looked delighted. "One of these? Right now?"

[pocketpretzels]

"Yes," Watts nodded. "For our fridge." No hesitation on the pronoun that time!

[hasaknightjob]

"Absolutely!" Steven said. He stood up to get one of the magnets from off of the display, then set about ringing it up and wrapping it in some brown paper for safe keeping. He was smiling from ear to ear as he did it.

[pocketpretzels]

"Many thanks," Watts said with a smile of his own, tipping his hat slightly at Steven.

[hasaknightjob]

Steven beamed at him. "Would you like the special gift with purchase for our VIP member?"

[pocketpretzels]

"Oh?" Watts replied. "I am intrigued, certainly. Tell me more?"

[hasaknightjob]

Steven put out the sign that said he was going on break. "Perhaps as we walk to lunch?"

[pocketpretzels]

Watts thusly deposited his hat on the desk with a flourish. "I look forward to hearing about it. In great detail," he said, as he held out his arm.

[hasaknightjob]

Steven smiled and took the offered arm gladly. "To start, it's very exclusive. Only one person is allowed to have it."

[pocketpretzels]

"I had hoped you might say something like that," Watts admitted.

[hasaknightjob]

"Oh yes," Steven said. "Very Important Person, you see. Singular."

[pocketpretzels]

"I like that," Watts said. "Very specific."

[hasaknightjob]

"In fact there was considerable debate about what to call it," Steven said. "To be sure it was specific enough."

[pocketpretzels]

"What were some of the other options?" Watts wondered.

[hasaknightjob]

"Very Important Llewellyn," Steven said. "Which is true but does imply that it's only for people named Llewellyn, you see."

[pocketpretzels]

"And hopefully you don't know too many Llewellyns?" Watts asked.

[hasaknightjob]

"I don't," Steven said. "But imagine the confusion if one showed up. So no, couldn't go with that name. Had to be narrower. One person and one person only."

[pocketpretzels]

"Lucky me," Watts said, as they reached their usual spot and he pulled out Steven's chair for him.

[hasaknightjob]

"Just a tick," Steven said. "Have to give you your VIP extra, don't I?"

With that Steven moved to give Llewellyn a kiss.

[pocketpretzels]

"I was hoping it would be something like that," Watts said, happily returning the kiss.

[hasaknightjob]

"Highly exclusive," Steven said, kissing him again. "One person only in all the universes."

[pocketpretzels]

"Lucky me indeed," Watts said with a happy sigh.

[hasaknightjob]

"Right." Steven gave Llewellyn one last kiss, then went to take his seat. "Now let's see what you've brought for our lunch."
