*she sits at the computer researching the book from the other night*
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 12:00:33 AM)
And she's sitting on the edge of the counter, idly passing the time.
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:02:24 AM)
*looks up* oh...Janelle..your here...
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 12:03:17 AM)
"Yep, like a ninja. Or something equally as comic booky." She slides from the edge of the counter to walk over. "It's fairly empty tonight."
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:05:28 AM)
well, this time of night everyone is downstairs..my friend Sabine iscoming by tonight with some of her stuff.
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:05:42 AM)
*sighs, wether in fear, anxiety or anticipation is hard to say*
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 12:06:35 AM)
"You're a very passionate person. You're getting very emotional over these things." She says, walking away as she talks to examine some books.
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:09:59 AM)
what do you mean? *frowns*
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:10:06 AM)
i'm notpassionate...
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:10:15 AM)
well, exceptaboutmy books...
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 12:11:02 AM)
"Your'e afraid, or nevous, or freaking out right now. She's not that scary..." She plucks a book out from a shelf and flips through a few pages.
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:11:37 AM)
*snorts* you're not the one she's trying to seduce...
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:12:13 AM)
i knew her for about 10 minutes and she was already hunting me...*smiles* it feels good, but really very scary at the same time.
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 12:12:51 AM)
"Are you into that? I mean, you're okay with it?'
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:14:20 AM)
*looks flustered* uhmmm..well i. i never really considered it, i'm not very..well i never you know....I never got..i never got asked out so i never really had a chance to...
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:14:40 AM)
*bangs her head on the desk in frustration and embarressment*
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 12:15:01 AM)
"To decide?" She hunched down by the desk, looking up at her with a soft smile.
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:15:18 AM)
*nodnod* among the other stuff you know...
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:15:48 AM)
my family is one of the Old Families.
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:16:45 AM)
you simply did not do anyhing to embaress the family. My Aunty Delilah ws already enough ofa blacksheep, and she was raising me, so i decided to help her by not making any trouble...so i never had a chance to decide or do that OTHER stuff....
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 12:17:32 AM)
"I'm in the same boat. My family was... CATHOLIC." She says with a voice of doom. "But in a cool way."
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:20:13 AM)
*giggles* Southern baptist for me. but i understand.
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 12:20:36 AM)
"So this is your dream job?"
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:21:38 AM)
the store was opened by my aunt in the 70's, she had lots of money so it was a venue for her own vice. Bibliophile. she passed that one on to me when i came to live with ehr at age 7.
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 12:22:11 AM)
"And now it's the devil's playground?" She asks questioningly.
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:22:12 AM)
As a traumitized child ispent much of my time reading,
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:23:07 AM)
*smiles* no, but whe nshe passed away last year i decided to make the place into a viable ongoing businessof it's own. to be able to stand or fall as an independant entity.
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:23:45 AM)
my college degree was for Historical Linguistics, & Literatery Arts
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:24:17 AM)
somewhat lacking in real world applications outside of being an interpetar or working ina musuem
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 12:24:40 AM)
"This is probably more exciting." She says with a soft smile.
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:25:54 AM)
i suppose. the people i meet are some ofthe most interesting.
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:26:36 AM)
I've always done things that were considered less than mainstream, I love Renfaires, science-fiction/fantasy conventions
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:28:30 AM)
i read more books in a year than most people do in 10.
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 12:28:47 AM)
Janelle had a historical face, like one could plop her into the Victoria age dress and she'd fit. Her movements and mannerisms however were distinctly 21th century. "I guess someone has too. They make so many of them."
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:29:06 AM)
it is, what it is i suppose, butwhen i meet someone like Sabine, she terrifed me and electrified me,she drove me nuts and made me smile.
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:29:56 AM)
i looked at myelf and said"My god what do you have she could possibly interested?" i'm plain, uninteresting and rather dull.
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:30:16 AM)
*smiles and gestures at jannell* you are lovely, atheltic. and smart.
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 12:30:55 AM)
"I'm an old soul, that's all. You're new and fresh and... booky!"
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:33:44 AM)
*smiles,she opens the new boxzes of product nearthe back* oh.. look the new weapons came in.
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:34:33 AM)
*she lifts a sword from thelong box, it is replica of the sword used in Final Fantasy*
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 12:34:45 AM)
"I do like weapons." She pauses in thought. "I don't know why..."
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:34:55 AM)
my, i always wondered how anyone could truly weild sucha weapon..
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:35:20 AM)
*smiles* i love swords but don;t know how to weild them, odd for a woman who adores renfaires isn;t it?
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:35:57 AM)
now give me a rifle i can nock the eye ridge on a gator fom a distance of 100 paces.
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:36:16 AM)
*she hands the bigsword to JAney*
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 12:37:39 AM)
She balances the sword on a finger idly as she listens to Emma. "I don't mind guns. I was shot at once when I was growing up. That sucked, and then I was sent away to a private school. Ah, second thought, guns suck." She grins, passing the sword back to her.
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:38:43 AM)
*she places it o nthe higher shelves and walks to the counter* i do need to show you something jane.
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 12:39:13 AM)
She follows along, looking around, "Is it a secret?"
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:39:18 AM)
*she slides a panel aside and reveala shotgun* Yes.
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:39:37 AM)
it's here in case of an Offical Bad Thing.
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:39:56 AM)
You, myself and Lisa know it's here.
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:40:06 AM)
that's it. *covers it up again*
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 12:40:10 AM)
"Can't I just, like, give them the money? Isn't that what insurance is for?"
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:40:37 AM)
yes you will, it is here in case they decide to do more thjan that. Really Bad Things. if you know what i mean
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 12:41:11 AM)
"I know martial arts." She says jokingly. "Don't worry. Thanks for the gun."
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:41:30 AM)
I keep it because some people, as much as i hate to admit it, are simply here to do harm toothers.
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:41:51 AM)
i prefer to believe in the kindness and generosity of others...
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:41:59 AM)
oh wspeaking of wich!
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 12:42:29 AM)
She pauses for a moment, then peeks downstairs where the customers are.
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:42:56 AM)
*smiles brightly and reaches under the counter* ok. take one box for you and i'll hand the rest out to the people who don't have any tonight.
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:43:22 AM)
i try to help those in need around the shop. it keeps the bad things from happening *smiles cheerfully*

i love to cook.
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 12:47:54 AM)
"Everyone needs hobbies." She wasn't judging, but the food thing wasn't for her.
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:48:37 AM)
*opens hers and begins to eat*
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 12:49:28 AM)
She leans on the counter and eats a little bit, mostly watching her and the joy she was getting from her food.
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:50:44 AM)
*finishes she sends lisa out wit hte other boxes to distribut them*
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:51:06 AM)
What sort of books do you like Janey?
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 12:51:25 AM)
"I didn't really read any." She starts eatting more quickly.

really? i'vea hardtime ot imagine my childhood ithout books.
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:57:24 AM)
* the store is a typical sci-fi bookstore, dozens of shelf racks holding hundreds, even thousands of titles, on the far wall is a set of glass enclosed shelves holding statues, trinkets, posters and other licensed merchandise related to the many facets and genres within the fantasy/sci-fi/supernatural/superhero fandoms. in a locked counter is the valuable CCG products. A shelf holding movies for sale, there is a set of stairs leading downstairs where the RPGs and Wargames are kept along with the gaming tables & meeting rooms and wargaming arena
Behind the counter sits a little gothic red haired teen ager, reading a book, her current read is George RR Martin’s Clash of Kings, standing in the corner near the new releases is Emma, dressed in her usual brown skirt and dress blouse, sneakers adorn her feet, none of this makes her look sexy, along with the mass of her long black hair piled in an unattractive bun on the top of her head it rather makes her frumpy. She is placing books on the shelf. She is of cou
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 12:57:45 AM)
"Religion helps." She admits.
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:58:26 AM)
She is placing books on the shelf. She is of course wearing her circular glasses, tinted rose and very Victorian era looking*
On a table in the corner sit’s a hot pot of tea, a pot of chicory coffee and a pot of deaf coffee. A bowl of sugar, a cup of honey, cream and a bottle of milk sit there as well, on the left rests against platter containing a dozen varieties of homemade cookies, measuring 3 or 4 inches across minimum, none are hard al all are thick, gooey and smell delish. They taste even better by the way*
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 12:59:10 AM)
*shakes* afterthe crash that killed my family i lost my faitrh.
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 1:00:14 AM)
She smiles softly, "I wonder if religion and faith are connected."
Justin Moore (Mar 18, 2011 1:01:03 AM)
*he moves into the store and starts browsing, loving there was a shop open when he was drunk enough to want to blow money*
Emma Raynard (Mar 18, 2011 1:02:39 AM)
(i have to go. its 1 am here)
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 1:02:46 AM)

(This user has left DigiChat) (IP = 71.184.53.15)
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 1:05:41 AM)
Janelle is leaning against the counter, in short cotton shorts and a worn t-shirt, looking like she worked here yet looking completely out of place.
Justin Moore (Mar 18, 2011 1:08:39 AM)
*hes grabbing lots of stuff as he moves around the store, when he is holding too much he palces it on the counter and goes back to his hunt*
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 1:09:14 AM)
She watches this with more and more interest.
Justin Moore (Mar 18, 2011 1:12:06 AM)
*he then moves to the counter with the baubles and hunts for the right one*
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 1:12:29 AM)
"Are you buying all of this?"
Justin Moore (Mar 18, 2011 1:13:15 AM)
*looks at her suprised, as if his drunk ass forgot she was there* At least half.......thats how I shop, I grab everything I want and eliminate from there.
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 1:14:38 AM)
She looks down at the stuff, then over at the shelves, "Can you, like, remember where ther stuff goes that you don't want?"
Justin Moore (Mar 18, 2011 1:17:16 AM)
*blinks at that a lot* Not to be rude.........but probably not, I figure I make up for it by dropping around 200 bucks in one visit to a local buisness.....Plus *he thumbs to the teen* People like me are job security.
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 1:18:54 AM)
"You totally can't remember, can you?"
Justin Moore (Mar 18, 2011 1:20:07 AM)
*he blinks a lot again* Not exactly......Im just drunkshopping in a cute shop that was nice enough to be open so people like me can do just that...........*hes looking at the baubles*
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 1:21:19 AM)
"Weird thing is that we can't sell you any of this stuff." She says with a sigh.
Justin Moore (Mar 18, 2011 1:22:01 AM)
O> K>......care to explain to me why that is?
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 1:22:42 AM)
"It's too late. We don't sell after a certain time. We're just open for the people downstairs."
Justin Moore (Mar 18, 2011 1:26:14 AM)
*wilts* You gotta be fucking me here, what are you like the day manager? Im willing to drop enough cash to make it worth cashing out another drawer......
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 1:28:17 AM)
"Okay okay." She huffs, then sighs, then looks at him seriously. She's considering. "I'll sell to you, but since I'm breaking the rules you have to make it worth my while. Two hundred isn't much, I saw a guy drop three just a few hours ago on some figurines or whatever."
Justin Moore (Mar 18, 2011 1:30:22 AM)
How about I tip you fifty? And spend what im going to spend.......plus those figures are queer as shit.......im looking for specific stuff. *theres a LOT of commercial lit and fiction on psychics*
Justin Moore (Mar 18, 2011 1:31:10 AM)
*on the counter that is*
Justin Moore (Mar 18, 2011 1:31:51 AM)

(CUSS, i gotta log, my pop wants the comuter)
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 1:32:31 AM)
She fingers though some of the things, then looks up at him curiously, finally shaking her head, "We've got to move merch, you know? I'd rather get rid of some of this than pocket something. Just buy more."
Janelle Timberland (Mar 18, 2011 1:32:43 AM)
( : ) Cute.)
Justin Moore (Mar 18, 2011 1:33:34 AM)
