"Well i shall try once more tomorrow, if not twice." he said with a wide smile and walked into the store. today he was looking for inspiration. he finished his last book, and needed an idea for a new one.

Riva watched the exchange, laughing inwardly. When Angelo left, she looked at Lee playfuly.
"If I were you, I'd have probably told him to leave me alone by now." Riva tugged on her gloves, which were slipping down her hands from sweat.
"Argon hasn't shown up yet? I'm sure Wisgoth is going to approach annoyed soon. Especially since Claire's reportedly in a playful mood. I pity Wisgoth now, I really do."
Riva heard the bells of a cathedral in the distnace. "Oh, I'm going to be late. Again. My aunt is going to kill me. Bye Lee. Good luck!"
Riva ran off.
--- Wisgoth looked up and smlied at Angelo. "Hello. Have you seen Argon coming?" Wisgoth was knee deep in stuff knocke doff the shelves.

Lee grinned "But if he left me alone I'd get bored!" she waved cheerfully at Riva's retreating back.
********
Argon jogged up to the shop and stopped by lee to catch his breathe. "I'm late...gods I'm gonna die..." he peeked in the front window.

"Can't say that i have..." he said distractedly looking into a jar of floating innards. "I know i have asked this a hundred times but; do you really believe that these are seaserpant bowels?".

Wisgoth smiled at Argon. "Ah, Glad to see you've decided to come. Please, help me with restocking the shelves. Claire has gone from playful to destructive."
Wisgoth looked at Angelo, still smiling. "Yes, I'm quite sure they're seaserpent bowels. I pickled them myself. They're just from rather small seaserpents. I suppose they're easier to catch that way." Wisgoth picked up a few things and randomly put them on shelves, so he could go over to talk to Angelo.
Claire walked over to Argon, giving him a penetrating stare.

Lee gave Argon a thumbs up, and he smiled weakly, then went into the shop. He lookewd at Claire "I'm late...I'm sorry...it was that girl Violet...she wouldn't let me leave..."
Violet was another customer that came in often, looking for any type of crystal that sent out "vibes" to her...basically a nut case. But a pretty nut case...who had taken a liking to Argon.
He began to slowly clean up the mess, keeping an eye on Claire just in case she decided to express her desire for anything to remain as it was...

Claire followed Argon, still glaring. SHe was also flicking her tail, a sure sign of annoyance.
Wisgoth looked at the debris from Claire's tantrum. Wisgoth picked up a jar. "These scales were taken from a dragon slain by his virginal offering."

"Hey! Damsel slays dragon. That would be good, especially if the Knight was eaten or in distress." he picked up the scales. "possibilty. Whats with Claire? she seems irked."

Wisgoth laughed at Angelo's plot bunnies. "that may well be the case."
Wisgoth watched Claire continue to harrass Argon. "I believe she is upset because a new customer commented that he wouldn't name his shop after a dumb cat. He was informed the cat was formerly an april witch I went to school with, and he left the store laughing. I didn't think she took it so personally until now." Wisgoth said sadly.
He didn't like Claire to be upset, beside the obvious reasons. Claire was one of his best friends, whic said a lot about his choice of friends.

Claire looked downa t her paw, delicately extedning her claws, as if tempting the idea to either use them on a voodoo doll or Argon for the midol crack.
Wisgoth gently picked Claire up, stopping her line of thought, whatever it was. "Remember Claire, what you send out coems back to you."

Argon found himself immeasurably glad for Wisgoth's intervention...he had enough scars as it was.
He wiped a hand across his forehead and bowe dto eth pair "I kow, back to cataloguing the stuff in back!" he then went into the back room...which was an odd place.
Lee poked her head in the door, the bells braided into her hair chiming in time with the larger one on the door again, now that the theatrics were over "Hey Claire, you had a friend stop by...she had to run though...her name was Riva"

Claire's ears perked up. Wisgoth quickly opened his arms before Claire clawed her way off of him. She began rubbing agains the door, meowing demandingly.
WIsgoth shook his head. "You'll get run over, and you don't know which way Riva went. I'll take you out to find her if we get a lull in business."
Wisgoth lookedat Lee. "unless MIss Lee would liek to take you to find her. Which would cut intoher earnings for teh day."

Lee glanced down at Claire and did some rapid calculations. "I have some saved up...so if I can ste my stuff in here I can take Claire to find Lady Riva...it shoudln't be hard."
