The 91st Song

[tangledintower]

[Rapunzel's been awfully distracted today, sighing dreamily at work and staring off the space.

In fact, when her shift gets off, she bolts right out, barely saying goodbye to everybody before she's on her way, making a beeline for Weasley's Wizard Wheezes.]

Ooooh, I hope I'm not late...he should still be there...Maybe I'll even talk to him today!

[She's got a grin on her face as she enters the shop, hiding behind one of the shelves of merchandise, peeking over it every so often, looking around hopefully for Percy.]

He should be here, this is still within his work hours...

[Yes, he's here, chatting with some customers and showing them some of the fireworks. There's a small demonstration area, and he's able to contain the fireworks within it to give people an idea of what they're buying. It is, actually, rather impressive spellwork.

But what about all the pink stuff? one of them asks.]

Ah, you're interested in our WonderWitch line? Of course. This way.

[As they walk, he spots a pair of big green eyes peeping at him over a shelf, and he looks for a moment, confused, before putting eyes to face, and he waves to Rapunzel as he shepherds his customers away.]

[Rapunzel goes bright red, waving eagerly back at Percy before ducking behind another shelf.

He noticed her! He noticed her!! Rapunzel fights back a giggle before going back to Percy watching, keeping her distance. He's with customers.]

[...o...kay. There's some explaining about the WonderWitch line before the customers say they want to look around, and Percy assures them he'll be around if they have any questions. So released from that duty, he takes on his next one: greeting the next customer into his shop.]

Good evening, Rapunzel; it's good to see you.

[orangetoughguy]

You got a date or something?

[tangledintower]

Er...no, not exactly...I was going to go watch Percy...

[tangledintower]

[She goes red again and smiles nervously. She's going to be super embarrassed tomorrow.]

Hi, Percy. How're you doing? How's business?

[orangetoughguy]

Percy? He an actor or something?

[tangledintower]

No, he runs the joke shop. He knows magic, and he's got red hair and he's a great chess player...

[orangetoughguy]

He put on a magic show?

[tangledintower]

No. Well, I mean, I guess he can if he wants to. But he's a wizard. A real, proper wizard.

[orangetoughguy]

So...you're going to watch him play chess?

[tangledintower]

Oh, no! I'm just going to watch him at work.

Maybe I'll get to play chess with him later. He's very good.

[orangetoughguy]

[tangledintower]

Yes! Yes we are!

[charring]

You feeling okay?

audio:

[tangledintower]

Oh, I'm fine! I'm just going to watch Percy.

Re: audio:

[charring]

Uh...

[Yeah, this is a bit odd.]

Watch him do what?

audio:

[tangledintower]

Work.

Re: audio:

[charring]

That doesn't sound all that exciting.

audio:

[tangledintower]

Well, it is. Percy is fun to watch.

Re: audio:

[charring]

Oh-kay.

[This is very, very weird.] Tell him I'll be by later to look at fireworks?

audio:

[tangledintower]

Oh, right, you haven't picked those out yet! Okay, I'll tell him!

[It's just a curse. At least she's not a CRAZY creepy stalker.]

Re: audio:

[charring]

[This is very true. Charlie'd have to stop by the magic shop anyway, just to keep Rapunzel from doing anything she'd dislike herself for tomorrow.

... Actually, she may just do that, too.]

Fantastic. Good. Okay. And we can talk about dress stuff, too.

[orangetoughguy]

Okay cause if you weren't that'd just be a little weird.

[tangledintower]

Why would it be weird?
