Okay. This was it. Today was going to be Summer first day official working at the shop mostly by herself, but it was cool. She had this. How much harder could it be without Amaya and with Apu close at hand, anyway? Not like there's be a huge surge of customers or anything. Something could possibly break down, but she could just get Amaya to come in and fix it. It would all be fine, it would all be great, and she'd spent all morning getting things ready for a little flash Back-to-School sale.

She just hoped no one would be looking for glitter, because she kind of used most of it to make the signs that now cluttered the front window.

Back to the island, back to some semblance of responsibility... back to work. It had been a little too long since Jonothon had been around the Groovy Tunes, and it was showing a little, in painfully obvious ways. Behind on paperwork? Check. He was going to have to figure out currency conversions around the multiverse and mail out people's final pay to at least two former employees. Behind on placing ordes for the shop? Also check. After he was finished with the paperwork, he was going to end up running around with a clipboard and a pencil, just taking inventory.

It was fine. It was something to keep him engaged, keep him busy. His brain felt less bruised than it had been, but that only meant that this weekend, sitting idle was something he'd be quite happy to avoid doing.

Sparkle stepped through his portal onto the island today looking only slightly harried and holding a basket of little black turtles.

Portalocity stopover. He didn't want to talk about it.

He was, however, setting the turtles in the window box so that people could... he didn't know... look at them as they wandered by? Hey everybody. He'd burgled some turts. If you wanted one, please come in and take it.

There was also a sign in the window that had nothing to do with turtles:

Back To School Sale!
50% off your purchase for all new residents of the island!
25% for all students!

... And, okay, there was another little sign on the turtle basket just saying, 'Free.' If there were no takers, he'd drop them off at the shelter or something after his shift.

Kanan walked into Luke's just in time to catch the cook hunkering over the specials board, about to fill in whatever nefarious menu item he was going to follow his truth to today.

"No."

The cook turned to look up at him, scandalized.

"If it isn't pancakes, no. You remember last week? I had to get the regulars to yell at you. August has been a long month and you're going to give them some goddamn pancakes."

"Pancakes," the cook muttered, grudgingly.

Welcome to Luke's!
Today's Specials:
Pancakes!
(With a side of waffles!)

Kanan sighed. Close enough.

While he'd met a number of pleasant people yesterday, Pastor Carter was relieved to spend today in far more familiar environs, despite never having been in this church in particular before. As he bustled about straightening the cushions on the pews, noting which ones would need to be replaced shortly, and then dusting everything in preparation of washing the floors, he felt his equilibrium come back.

Perhaps it wouldn't be so bad, being a teacher. Fjord, despite his fearful appearance, had seemed pleasant enough. Thinking back to the synopsis, Carter chuckled. He would have to find a store, if he were going to supply homemade cookies in class tomorrow.

Goddess, but this place did tend to just throw people into the life of it, didn't it?

So, today was the day Bob had agreed to look after the shop in exchange for using it as a base of sorts.

He looked around it.

Well, now what? He couldn't exactly clean. He looked over the books there and began working his way through reading them, marking them with little glowing runes on the side as "useful", "amusing", or "utter trash".

And since signs seemed to be a thing, he wrote in glowing gold text in the window:

WELCOME
New students half off if you can amuse the shopkeeper

Well, why not?
