Does anyone know if the pet store is open on Sundays? Or on these visitor weekends? I'm looking to buy a dog, you see.


[ooc: 4th wall time! bring him everyone, even doubles if only because I'd love to see someone else from this canon ]

Oh, thank you, miss!

Re: video:

[charring]

You're welcome. I actually have to head there, myself. Need to pick up more toys for a teething puppy.

[fiveagainstradley]

Maybe I'll see you there. My name's David, by the way.

Charlie. It's a pleasure to meet you. Welcome to the City.

[fiveagainstradley]

Thank you. Have you been here long?

Re: video:

[charring]

For longer than a year, but that's not as long as some of my friends.

[lupinejock]

Buying one? Really? That involves the shite with the leads, doesn't it. As if a lead could hold a REAL DOG.

[fiveagainstradley]

Well, that's how you have to get them. You can't just steal one. And they need a lead until they learn to obey.

[lupinejock]

No, you have to impress one. And why've they have to obey, eh? What's that about?

[fiveagainstradley]

I... don't know, that's just what dogs do. If your dog doesn't obey then people get mad and you can't have a dog anymore.

[lupinejock]

Then you should just send your dog at them to show them they can't mess with you, that's what.

[fiveagainstradley]

But I don't want the sort of dog that will attack people, I want the sort of dog that's friendly and loyal.

[norsehufflepuff]

I'm afraid I don't, but then, I'm new. Just for the day. I've not often the chance for a holiday. Or ever. Do you know, I think this might be my first one.

[fiveagainstradley]

Oh, hello Helen! It's good to see you. Are you enjoying your first holiday, then?

[norsehufflepuff]

So far, and I've nothing to compare it to, so, you know, this is my best one ever. Have you time for a visit? Where is this place?

[fiveagainstradley]

It's called the City, and from what I can tell it's rather special.

Sure, you should come round our place. Dunno if Luke'll be there, but you can come say hi to my new dog.

[norsehufflepuff]

Luke will be there if you want him to be, I don't doubt it. But perhaps we might have tea, just you and I for once. [Her dad and a teenage boy...] Have you tea?

[fiveagainstradley]

[ Helen, he's British. It's the first thing he bought, besides real sheets for the bed. ] I do. I'll meet you there in, oh, twenty minutes?

[dripspoison]

Oh yeah, visitor weekend's really somethin' to call a fuckin' mass abduction. That's weasel words, that is. D'you really think shops'd be fuckin' closed on a Sunday? What sorta shite, backwards hole of a place is this s'posed to be? Some city. Fuckin' useless.

[fiveagainstradley]

[ . . . ]

I dunno. Some places shops close on Sundays.

oh my god I'm really really really sorry for Jorma

[dripspoison]

But that's utter rubbish, why'd anyone ever bloody do that? What good's that do, make some fuckin' little old church cunt feel better about herself, makin' shops stay closed? Sorry, no fuckin' chance.

haha it's ok

[fiveagainstradley]

Well, if it makes you feel any better [ PERSON HE DOESN'T EVEN KNOW ] the shops are open after all.

>.>

[dripspoison]

Like I said, they'd bloody best be. [Flick, flick, flick, and she inhales to light her cigarette.] Oh, yeah, and I'm meant to say "hi", I s'pose. Fuckin' joke. Like you're meant to mean somethin' to me, I don't think. 'ow many fucktoys has dad had by now anyway, I can't even count and yeuch, I don't fuckin' want to.

<_<

[fiveagainstradley]

[ Then David remembers Luke's kids are in town and he does the math. He's met Fenris and he's having tea with Helen so this must be Jorma. But first things first, he sputters incoherently for a bit. ]

I'm not-- we haven't-- I mean we don't--!
