Open for Business

[dekillerqueen]

Who: Open to all!
Where: A nice little bakery in the Virgo district.
Summary: There's someone new working at the shopping ward. He looks a little weird, but his sweets seem pretty appetising...
Warnings: None that I can think of, save for Shelly being kind of creepy as usual Probable Dual Destinies spoilers in the thread with Bobby!

Maybe you're a regular at this bakery. Or maybe you've never noticed it before. Either way, there is a new face selling baked goods here! A kind old man with a white streak on his hair is taping a few flyers to the window, announcing some appealing new deals and brand new desserts for sale.

Come a little closer, and you may catch his eye. You may also notice the line of stitches running down his face.

But with a smile like that and delicacies like these, who wouldn't want to come right in and buy something?

You are a very odd man.

[spiritofjustice]

Heh, I like to use the word "eccentric".

[dekillerqueen]

Call it whatever you wish. I stand by what I said.

[Ohoh, is Shelly getting nervous? He hopes so. Fear is what stops the average human from doing something stupid like, say, go back on their word and stab someone in the back. Literally or figuratively.]

Come now, don't be such a killjoy! [Hahaaah.]

[dekillerqueen]

[Nervous? Not quite. It's just a little unnerving to see such a display of... what would he even call it? He isn't sure. But it almost feels as if "Detective Fulbright" is little more than a skin that this man - whoever he really is - can put on or take off at any moment-- wait what.]

...

Was that a pun?

[spiritofjustice]

Well, one of us has to lighten to the mood in here, isn't that so?

[That, and Bobby just wants to get the hell out of here and into an area more public. He waves a quick, dismissive hand.] So, about that free sample you promised...
