Crap, how did I get so behind...? It's not like I have a lot but it keeps adding up. I just don't get it.

Buffy, your bikinis are done as promised, sorry they're late. And Keimi? Let me know when you can swing by the shop...I want your opinion on some stuff.

I guess I shouldn't be saying this but I'm still taking orders for things? I've got a couple of others done and ready for pick-up, too, so swing by when you're ready!

[Filtered to Suki's Recruits]

Okay...I need the following people to come by All Passions for measurements soon. [She pauses, flipping through papers like she's referencing notes.] Fenimore, Xion, Stella, Charlotte, Elizabeth, Ukyo, Marica, and Madoka? I think that's everybody. I was told you guys need to be fitted for uniforms so come by any time today. Right in the middle of town next to the bakery.

And on that note...Suki? If you could stop by too just so we're all on the same page of what you want. Sokka kind of gave me a brief idea a while back but...y'know, clarity.

[Action, later in the evening]

[For the most part, Shiki spends her day down at All Passions but as soon as dusk hits she's out the door and locking up. She's got a new destination in mind.

Lately Shiki's taken to shifting her stalker tendencies from Neku to Joshua, and she had recently discovered that the boy had been kidnapped. Her goal today is to snoop around house 38 and see what she can find out not only about his kidnapping, but about Joshua himself.

That is to say, she's flipping on lights and rummaging around both down in the abandoned cafe and upstairs. Neighbors are free to notice that there's activity in house 38, and certain housemates are free to notice that certain girls haven't returned home yet.]

...I'll be right over.

A-ah! I'm Madoka.. nice to meet you! I'll make sure to hurry up and come by as soon as possible!

Door's unlocked, let yourself in.

Nice to meet you, too. Don't rush, I'll be here for a few hours. I just need to get your measurements so I can get going on finishing these.

[ and she lets herself in! she slides sunglasses up onto the top of her head. ]

Shiki?

[And she practically prances out of the back room, small bag tied with a ribbon in one hand and Mr. Mew in the other. Honestly, she's seventeen now. You'd think she'd ditch the doll.]

That was fast. Hey. Guessing you were already out?

[ buffy still sleeps with a stuffed pig named mister gordo; she has no room to criticize. ]

Just picking up some stuff. And now picking up some other stuff. And hi.

[...Mister Gordo? Really? Yeah okay, that's fair enough.]

Dare I ask what the first set of stuff is? [She's holding the bag out to her though, just in case she wants to cut the chit-chat and bolt. She's testing.]

Hmm, I promise to do my best! [ Even if there isn't really.. something to try your best on here.. ]

Um, I was wondering.. what sort of uniforms are they? What do they look like?

Just some...supplies. Rum, actually. [ there is a clink of glass bottles from the grocery bag on her arm. ] For guests. Not for me.

[ a slight smile and she leans back against the counter of the shop. she's staying. ]

Sure, no worries...[She finds the comment a bit odd, but she won't hold it against the girl.]

They're green, and they're...actually kinda hard to explain. I've got an example I'm working from, and I need to finalize things with Suki before I actually make them but trust me they'll look great.

I was going to say...[She leans her elbows on the counter, just eying that bag.] Your guests are fans of hard alcohol? Sounds like it could be a recipe for disaster.

...It's a New Feather cycle and Jack Sparrow's back.

[ she sounds...anxious. excited. the cat is fair game to let out of the bag and she's eager to do so, now. still -- she tries to play it cool. buffy sets the rum aside and rifles into the second bag to check out the bathing suits. ]

Yeah, I heard he was back. How is he? [There's a pause as she watches the blonde, waiting her approval. It's fairly basic black and cut to fit the girl's figure, the other being a red. There may also be a one-piece in there just for kicks.

She's waiting for approval, but she's also waiting for Buffy to spill what Shiki already knows about who came through this cycle so far.]

Older. [ she holds up the black one -- an appreciative click of her tongue as she held it up against herself. ] He's older.

Angel's back, too. Which -- complicated.

How much older? [She grins a bit, nodding in her own approval. Good...good, it worked. However when she mentions Angel she changes her expression again.]

Yeah, I saw him. Well, talked to him anyway. How complicated is complicated?

Complicated like the newly returned two years older Jack Sparrow and me are an item. Were an item. Now again an item. Which is fine, 'cause Angel and me are ancient history but...still? I'm predicting a whole lot of awkward on this one.

[ she runs her fingers over the suits. oh, but she wants to go swimming. by the ocean. maybe jump off jack's boat. forget the predicted awkward. perhaps she should contact the pirate... ]

[hi Shiki.... if you happen to step outside somewhere around lunchtime today, you'll find a loiterer on the front porch. He's seemingly doing nothing except sitting there, silently listening to music.]

How soon do you mean by soon?

[She's free for a while, but she figures she should ask before just showing up.]

I will trust you in that case.. I'm actually sort of excited to wear a real uniform, ehehe. I've never had to do that before-- ah, well, aside from my school unfirom, that is.

Are you the young lady who runs the clothing store?

That's me...I'm Shiki. I customize clothes around here, anyway.

Anytime later today. Probably before the sun sets...that should be plenty of time, right?

[She'll be stepping out to go grab something from the bakery next store, but since she's not really looking where she's going she almost runs him over.]

Whoa! [She looks down and spots the boy sitting there, tilting her head a bit before removing one of his earphones.] ...been here long?

...wait, just how old are you anyway?
