Thirty-Fourth Spool of Thread-[Voice/Action]

[so_shik]

[Shiki's currently busy moving things around in her shop, rearranging new displays on either side of the door. These displays? Well, they're hats, specifically ones that Molly made before she left and Shiki herself is wearing a new hat instead of her usual one.]

...I always knew that girl was smarter than most. Hope she made it back okay.

Just as a heads up? All Passions now has a whole new line of hats for the summer. Think of this as a PSA.

[She's going to continue derping around for a bit before she'll turn around the sign to read "closed" and get ready to go home. Feel free to either come into the shop before she closes and turns off the lights, or catch her on the way home. Of course, she'll be seeking out a few people when she gets back to House 10 as well...]

[[ooc: I'll keep up with these threads as much as possible for the next few days, but assume that after everything in this post wraps up, Shiki got kidnapped. I'll leave it up to Neku.]

[Well, when she does get home there will be a Neku there waiting for her outside on the bench. He knows she gets home around this time and the weather is actually hot for a change, so he's just hanging out there enjoying it.]

[Action]

[so_shik]

[Hi there boyfriend. Shiki's just going to approach the bench and have a seat next to him.] And what are you doing out here? [She knows very well what he's doing out there.]

[Action]

[soundfrequency]

[ORLY. He looks at the new hat on her head first then shrugs. Yeah he heard what she said over the journal and is waiting for her.]

Nothing. Done for the day?

[Action]

[so_shik]

[Yaraly. Don't mind the new hat, she's just going to shrug right back.]

Done at the store, yeah. I thought it was about time to come home.

Want to go in?

[Sokka has never actually been in All Passions before, having a distinct lack of interest in clothing that is not his own. However, he heard about hats. Sokka likes hats. Hats are fun. So at about lunchtime, have a nosy guy in the shop. After a withering glance at all the clothes and styles in the store he can't imagine anyone wanting to wear, he goes to look at the hats. And tries ever single one on and checks to see what he looks like.]

[Action]

[so_shik]

[Well. Shiki's going to pretend not to notice Sokka for a bit while watching him from the corner of her eye, since he seems like the type who doesn't want to be bothered. She doesn't look too pleased at that look toward her actual designs, but she tilts her head when he starts going through the hats.

...wait. All of them? Yeah, okay, getting up and heading over there.]

...can I help you with something, or...?

[Action]

[markofthewise]

Huh? [He glances back. Oh right, someone actually works here, don't they?]

I don't think any of these hats are me.

[Action]

[so_shik]

I don't think they are either. [At least she's being honest?] If you're really looking for a hat though, we've got a bunch more in the back that Molly made.

[Hello there, Shiki. Your hired helper is stopping by for a visit before things close.]

[Action]

[so_shik]

[Minato! Shiki's just doing a bit more of a clean-up, so come on in.] Hey.

[Action]

[emp3thy]

Hey.

[he's not here to get a hat, but it is because of that notice. :|]

[so_shik]

[Shiki's going to ignore the issue for now and go about her business. This is totally normal, right?] How are you?

[Voice]

[psychebubble]

*Here's a voice you haven't heard in a while!*

Hats?

[Voice]

[so_shik]

[Oh sup Paru.]

Hats. A friend of mine was making a whole set of them.

[Voice]

[psychebubble]

*And now this is the voice of a terrible idea.*

What kinds?

[Voice]

[so_shik]

They're all of Molly's designs, so they're kind of all over the place and hard to describe. You'll have to come see for yourself, now won't you?

[ Aaand here's a Hanekoma, out on a walk just to enjoy the sunlight and kill some time. He waves to Shiki when he spots the girl on her way home, near enough to yell hello. ]

Hey!

[ action ]

[so_shik]

[Shiki being Shiki, she's not really paying much attention at first, so she just waves and grins in his direction] Hey Mr. H!

[...wait a sec. ...last time Shiki heard, you were dead.]

Mr. H?

[ action ]

[nattocat.livejournal.com]

[ ... why is she looking at him like that. Hang on a second, Mr. H has to turn around and look to see if there's anything sufficiently startling behind him. Nope. So: ]

... yeah?

[ That's what you get for having Neku be your news source, poor kid. ]

[ action ]

[so_shik]

Wh-...you're alive!? I mean of course you are, but...what?

[Well it probably just never came up that he's alive again...and she wasn't paying attention. Shiki's been busy, let's just go with that.]

[Shiki's never seen you before, Ethan. So really, don't mind her watching out of the corner of her eye, just monitoring him for a few moments. This is new.]

...hey! [There's no way Shiki's just going to let somebody wander without buying...or even talking.]
