Life goes on, anything goes [Open]

[zero_to_herooo]

Who: Hino Eiji, OPEN
Where: Kingyou Books
Summary: Eiji settles in at his new job.
Warnings: N/A

Eiji took a last few swipes with the broom, then looked out of the doorway at the street. "Whew. Just in time!"

Finding somewhere to work part-time really wasn't a problem for someone used to moving from place to place like he was. And weirdly enough, the owner of this bookstore had seemed kind of excited to see him. Something about interdimensional whatsits. If he was expecting Eiji to sprout extra eyes or antennae, though, he was in for some disappointment -- Eiji was 100 percent average human.

...well, he was now, anyway. Auf wiedersehen, Eiji Greeed, and all that.

He flipped the sign on the door from "Closed" to "Open", straightened a poster that loudly declared

COMING SOON (9/15)

THE MAN PARADE, VOL. II

EXCITING CONTINUATION!! RESERVE YOUR COPY TODAY!!!

and waved to the people walking by. "Hi there! Interested in a flyer with this month's releases?"

Books seemed like a good thing to pass the time with, and Theodore would need more besides his mostly empty Compendium to keep his mind occupied until the Velvet Room was opened. So when he's waved down by the stranger he's quite happy to give him his time. Well, mostly.

The (former) resident peered at the poster, then frowned. He would need to read the first one. Excuse him he will just go inside to buy the first book, and then he will return outside. Money for food? Ha! "I am! What is this particular series about?"

Just your luck: You got one of THOSE customers passing by your store today. Misery looks him over with a coldly appraising eye. Then, wordlessly, she holds a hand out, as if expecting something. We guess that means "yes?"

[greyerrant]

An armored figure hunches as he steps near to the book store, his helm removed, showing a face that is scarred and rather craggy to look it, his features slightly equine and suggesting unsubtle gene-forging. He rumbles a response to Eiji's offer.

"A flyer? Very well, what are you selling?" His eyes flick to the bookstore's front, and he nods, "Ah."

He will take a flier and eye it.
