*wipes face and retakes her seat* H-Hey Vex. Thanks for the flowers.

Oh, honey, your welcome. Why do you put yourself through this? I don't mean to pry, but don't you think it might be in your best interest to...I don't know...Is there anything I can get for you? I'd like to help you if I could.

I'm okay... I could really use a hot chocolate, though.

Sure, no problem.

*goes back behind counter and makes a big mug of hot chocolate and tops it with fresh whipped cream*

Here you go. I hope this makes you feel better.
Juppengatana
07-02-2004, 04:37
Eh... thanks Vex. I seriously don't know anything anymore. Sark's just... Oy...

Hi everyone ! :D
Vexilars
07-02-2004, 04:41
Sark's just what? If anybody knows anything, it's you, right? I mean, you worked for the guy, not me.
07-02-2004, 04:42
*makes her way through the bookshelves* *stops at a certain book and pulls it from the shelf, beginning to read* This is the way it should be...

*begins to cry* *convinces herself that her tears are caused by her illness*

Sark's just what? If anybody knows anything, it's you, right? I mean, you worked for the guy, not me.

How true, I know he can be a real arse sometimes... but I still love him. I have no idea what to do.

Hi everyone ! :D

Hey Happi! What's up?

Not much, I thought I would be in pain about now, but its not too bad ! :D

I'm baaack.
07-02-2004, 05:32
*sits on the floor, feeling exhausted and drained of energy* *closes her eyes, letting herself doze off in the middle of the store*
07-02-2004, 05:34
*Wanders back into the store after a long hiatus, carefully avoids the sleeping Sparren and finds a table out of the way*
Langham
07-02-2004, 05:36
Hola, TO!

Nighty night, Spar.

*Wanders back into the store after a long hiatus, carefully avoids the sleeping Sparren and finds a table out of the way*

*wonders if Sparren hasn't developed a case of narcolepsy*

TO, what a nice surprise! How are you this evening? You gonna test my beverage savvy?
Vexilars
07-02-2004, 05:40
Hola, TO!

Nighty night, Spar.

Lang, how are you doing? Is there anything I can get for you?
07-02-2004, 05:42
*turns restlessly and tries to find a soft space on the rug, dreaming of jealousy and sadness*
Langham
07-02-2004, 05:43
I'm fine. I don't need anything right now, Vex.

*covers Spar up*
07-02-2004, 05:49
Thanks Vex I'll take some Lapsong Souchong. I truly enjoy the variety I get from this place and the service...

Hello Lang, by the way your wig's on backwards...
Vexilars
07-02-2004, 05:49
*covers Spar up*
Oh, thanks man.

*picks Spar up off the ground and once again carries her off to sleep on the sofa in her office. hopes he doesn't throw out his back. sits on the edge of the sofa and brushes the hair from off her face. hopes her dreams are sweet*

Sleep well, love.
Langham
07-02-2004, 05:51
No prob, Vex.

It is, TO?

*tries to fix the wig*
Cuneo Island
07-02-2004, 05:54
Hows it going in here?
Langham
07-02-2004, 05:55
Hola, Cuneo! S'all good here. You?
Vexilars
07-02-2004, 06:00
Thanks Vex I'll take some Lapsong Souchong. I truly enjoy the variety I get from this place and the service...



You got it. Chinese Lapsong Souchong black tea. A smoked tea, I'm sure you know.

*brings in a teapot of boiling hot water and the usual two ceramic cups*

Did you know that Lapsong Souchong was a favorite of none other than Sherlock Holmes?
07-02-2004, 06:04
Did you know that Lapsong Souchong was a favorite of none other than Sherlock Holmes?

Actually I didn't, I always remembered his source of inspiration slightly better. The store looks like it's done well without me boosting the income. Are you getting the stores replenished?
Juppengatana

I'm not exactly Dr. Phil, but you don't look or sound like you're in love...

You think so? Or is it just wishful thinking? Eh... I'll figure this whole thing out sometime... I am just confused right now. Oy... is Spar alright?
Vexilars
07-02-2004, 06:10
The store looks like it's done well without me boosting the income. Are you getting the stores replenished?

I figure with Sparren around, I can forge her name on a few order sheets and keep the place going. She's here, but she's distracted, no doubt.
Vexilars
07-02-2004, 06:13
You think so? Or is it just wishful thinking? Eh... I'll figure this whole thing out sometime... I am just confused right now. Oy... is Spar alright?

*whispers* Maybe it is just wishful thinking on my part...

*regular voice* I'm sure Spar will be fine with some rest.

Heh. I see. Well, I better head home and get to bed. I have this meeting tomorrow. Goodnight, you all. Thanks for everything, Vex. I'll figure all this out sometime. *walks happily out the door*
07-02-2004, 06:32
Good, I'd hate to see this place mothballed with so much good coming from it. I'm sure Sparren will be fine too... You really shouldn't have said that, it isn't any of your business and that was the most pathetically unreassuring thing you could say.
Vexilars
07-02-2004, 06:38
Heh. I see. Well, I better head home and get to bed. I have this meeting tomorrow. Goodnight, you all. Thanks for everything, Vex. I'll figure all this out sometime. *walks happily out the door*

Good night. Sleep well.

Thank you. That's so kind of you to say. *moves close to TO's ear and whispers* I'm so very glad you enjoy your time here. You could enjoy it even more, you know...
07-02-2004, 06:46
I'm so very glad you enjoy your time here. You could enjoy it even more, you know...

Huh, what...exactly do you mean?
Vexilars
07-02-2004, 07:01
Huh, what...exactly do you mean?

Shhhh...nothing...really. Keep it down, ok?
07-02-2004, 07:12
*Stares into empty teacup*
What is he talking about?

Isn't that obvious you ditz?

Everything is obvious to you.
07-02-2004, 07:16
Shhhh...nothing...really. Keep it down, ok?

Get out now! It's obvious he has some sort of ulterior motive, and you need to sleep eventually. Get out now, think it over and don't come back.

*subvocally*
Just shut up.

*Lifts head and looks toward Vex*
I'm sorry, but I really do have to go now. I'll try to find some time to come back soon.
Vexilars
07-02-2004, 07:28
You've really gone and done it now, haven't you? Ah, such a brilliant plan. Keep one for yourself and dangle the others. How's that working out for you now? Stupid vain fool!!

*walks in, turns to the door, flips the open/closed sign to closed, walks out* :twisted:
Troon
07-02-2004, 11:16
*Comes in, changing open/closed sign back the right way round*

Hey everybody. Vex, I take it Spar's in the back room? I've got an idea...

*Disappears for five minutes*

*Comes back with 10 glasses of water on a tray*

*Heads into office*

(Whispering)Spaaaren...I brought you some water...I'm always getting told to drink more when I'm ill...if you want something else, please tell me...

Vexilars
07-02-2004, 23:01
*wanders in. shuffles around behind the counter. walks the aisles of books. looks through pantry, freezer, refridgerator.*

Nothing looks good
07-02-2004, 23:05
*Wanders in, slightly more unkempt then usual with shoelaces untied and hair obviously uncombed*

*Wanders in, slightly more unkempt then usual with shoelaces untied and hair obviously uncombed*

Hi TO. You look nice.

I have to run and keep an appointment. But, I need to talk with you when I return. If you're here, of course. I feel I owe you an apology for my behavior last evening.

Please help yourself to whatever you like. I'll be back in a little while.
The fairy tinkerbelly
07-02-2004, 23:24
i'm fine thanks, sorry about yesterday
Juppengatana
07-02-2004, 23:25
Heya guys. How's it going? Oh, Hi TO. You okay?
Vexilars
07-02-2004, 23:27
i'm fine thanks, sorry about yesterday

Oh gosh, you don't have anything to be sorry about. I'm glad you stopped in.
Vexilars
07-02-2004, 23:29
Heya guys. How's it going?

Artemis, I need to talk with you as well. But I really do need to run. I'll be back soon, I promise.
07-02-2004, 23:30
Hi TO. You look nice.

I'm afraid I won't be here, I'm only stopping for a short visit. But there isn't any need to apologize, I just had to leave, I probably shouldn't have left so suddenly so maybe I should apologize...

Hi Artemis. I'm doing fairly well just a little bedraggled and in a bit of a rush, enjoy yourself.
*Wanders out*
Vexilars
08-02-2004, 00:37
Well, Tink, from what I've read elsewhere, you could probably use a drink. What would you like? My treat.
The fairy tinkerbelly
08-02-2004, 00:47
thanks, i think its probably best if i stick to orange juice for the rest of the night!
Vexilars
08-02-2004, 00:51
*cuts several ripe and juicy Florida oranges in half and squeezes the juice over ice in a tall glass. inserts straw.*

Here you go. Enjoy!
The fairy tinkerbelly
08-02-2004, 00:52
*takes a sip* thanks, this is delicious
Vexilars
08-02-2004, 00:59
Your very welcome. Feel free to lay low in here as long as you like. Browse the aisles of books. Sparren keeps a very comprehensive collection, so you'll probably find anthing you're interested in. And if you get hungry, just holler. I fancy myself a bit of a cook.
Juppengatana
08-02-2004, 01:01
Welcome back, Vex. You said you wanted to talk?
Vexilars
08-02-2004, 01:05
Hi there. I did say that, now didn't I? Is there anything I can get for you first?
Juppengatana
08-02-2004, 01:07
Some ice cream would be nice. Chocolate, please.

Vexilars

*dishes out a healthy bowl of Double Double Chocolate Fudge ice cream, adds whipped cream and a cherry*

Here you are. Enjoy!

What I wanted to talk to you about is last night. I feel I may have crossed the bounds of gentlemanliness. There is no doubt you are a desirable woman. That I am well aware of. And I may have led you to believe, last evening, that I was interested in...a closer relationship with you.

Truth is I love Sparren. I love her dearly. And my behavior last night was nothing more than a slap in her face. So, I apologize to you for anything I may have said that was inappropriate.
Vexilars
08-02-2004, 01:18
**wanders in**

How nice to see you, Gide. What can I do for you?
Juppengatana
08-02-2004, 01:19
It's alright. All boys have to be immature at some point. Besides... you didn't even tell me if you forgave me for when I ran out on dinner the other night.
Vexilars
08-02-2004, 01:21

That we are! How's the ice cream?
Juppengatana

It's great. And if you haven't noticed by now, I am a chocolate addict.

Everyone is a flirt. It can be harmless and healthy. Then again, it can get out of hand. I'm certainly guilty of it. It's really a matter of perception.
Vexilars
08-02-2004, 01:34

I have noticed actually. How do you stay so fit?

No, but is he really just trying to get in every female's pants?
Vexilars
08-02-2004, 01:44
I see. That makes sense.

*cell phone rings*

What's that? OK, I'll be there in five minutes.

Gotta run for a bit. Help yourself to anything you like. I'll be back in a little while.
Vexilars
08-02-2004, 03:15
No, but is he really just trying to get in every female's pants?

First of all, I don't know Seph. So it's unfair of me to make any kind of judgement. From what I've seen, I think he's just very young and very male. Neither one a crime. He also seems quite fond of you.

Stupid.

Melancholy.

Detached.

Alright then! Stop sounding so depressed.

I packed up all my CD's and all my albums in boxes today. Other than the few CD's out in my truck, I have nothing but the radio to listen to for 21 days. *depressing*
08-02-2004, 04:16
Lang, on you stupid things look good. Most people don't get that look.

Well you could get me some Assam for one, Vex. I have seen better service, just not anywhere around here...

Oh dear... that is a bit depressing. Don't worry. I'm sure you will ultimately survive. Can I get some lemonade?
Langham

Not too many of these around...

No, no Vex. If I'm unable to think coherently, what should I expect of others who don't have adequate music supplies?

I wasn't even bright enough to look and see what CD's were out there. Aah, doesn't matter.

The tea is to your liking?

Hey Lang & Vex ! :D

Hi Hap! Keeping those braces clean?

kind of, teeth are hurting a little because they are kind of loose,but in about a day+ I will have to start really cleaning them ;)

Get an Interplak system. I am totally addicted to mine.

I just saw it on TV. On Ciao America with Mario Batali (or something close to that) I have this obsession with cooking shows in general and Italian one's in particular.
08-02-2004, 05:22
Well I'm sorry everyone but I need to be going. Thanks for the tea and the company.
Vexilars
08-02-2004, 05:23
Do you need to ask Vex? *Sips tea* As excellent as I have come to expect.

I'm glad. Haven't lost my touch... :wink:

So, girl-in-the-know, any shows coming up I might be interested in? I'm partial to Beethoven and piano sonatas. Any recitals perhaps?

I try and pretend I'm a good cook.

I'm moving the end of this month to a rural area. My favorite thing to bake/cook is fresh bread, but the quality suffers greatly in a conventional oven. I already have plans to build an outside brick wood burning oven and really find out if I can cook/bake with the big boys. It's very exciting (to me).

Plus, I'll be able to catch fish right off my dock. It is lakeshore property! Too sweet!

well, actually we did to some waiter. he kept staring at us, so i wrote down my friend's cell phone number on a napkin and stuck it under the bill. she thought i was writing that i think he's cute, but instead i wrote that she thought he's cute, and i didn't tell her till after we left.

Excellent. I opened this bottle for me, but since I don't drink, well not now anyway, seemed a waste, no?

Hola, Vex!

Yes, too bad so much of his music is so hard to find. I really enjoy some of his smaller things, mainly the string quartets and vocal stuff, but the famous large works are amazing as well.

Yes, too bad so much of his music is so hard to find. I really enjoy some of his smaller things, mainly the string quartets and vocal stuff, but the famous large works are amazing as well.

I picked up, at a garage sale last fall, a six album collection (vinyl) of Beethoven string quartets for $3! I'd tell you more about the recordings, but they are now packed away, waiting to be moved.
