Please tell me that I'm not the only one that thinks the silver hair of a unicorn gathered under the full moon is a little much to pay for one's morning coffee?

...and as an aside, passionné, cafe satiné, and salon lustré will be closed until my staff stops insisting that Laszlo Jamf's glasses are the going rate for a trim. All staff will be paid a partial day's wages, assuming they don't actually find, what was it... ah, yes, the golden egg of a goose for their morning pastry.

What sort of curse is this, anyway?

At that price, is it coffee that'll keep me awake forever?

[Those words are a little slurred, said through the mouth of somebody who isn't fully coherent yet and still yawning.]

Not unless someone changed the supply orders behind my back. Go back to sleep, darling, I'll bring yous something by later. So long as I'm not expected to scale a mountain for it.

audio;

[thenormalsquint]

Can't. It's a hospital day today.

Don't worry. I'd scale the mountain myself for some. Maybe pop out a pot of gold from the end of the rainbow for it too.

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

Ah, yes, a hospital day. [Your schedule, darling.]

Shall I meet you for lunch somewhere?

[thenormalsquint]

[Perhaps she should write it down and stick it on his fridge one day.]

Sure, but only if you brown bag it. I'm sure they'll be asking for a literal arm and leg for a salad today.

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't be surprised. Not after what I've seen in the scant hours I've been up.

[He sighs.]

And here I was trying to get an early start so I could kidnap you for an early evening out.

[thenormalsquint]

[Hours? Pfft. She's been up mere minutes. How people do the early bird thing, Angela will never understand.]

Can it be called kidnapping if I went willingly?

audio;

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

I don't know. Can it?

[likeabawws.livejournal.com]

That? For coffee?

[laszlo-jamf.livejournal.com]

Snappy, arent't they?

[risetwice.livejournal.com]

Did you manage? You could have come into the bakery, we just got a new coffee machine.

[iam-thebadwolf.livejournal.com]

This is a bit of an odd one. Guess this is one of those instances that we get the day off 'cause the City's gone a bit nutters?

I don't know, but if you want any errands run, the answer is NO. Not unless you pay me in silk fine enough to thread through a needle.

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

That's why my staff tired to quote someone and they wouldn't believe me when I claimed otherwise.

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

I... suppose they are. You seem to have your own sense of style, certainly.

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

I have a coffee pot in my office for just such occasions. And to be honest, after wading through my own staff's declarations, I just wanted my coffee.

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

Yes, this would be one of those. Sometimes it's just simpler to close instead of sort through the entire schedule to find those that aren't affect.

Plus, I'm not sure I'd want to risk encouraging any customers who think they have to go to such lengths just to try on a gown.

[risetwice.livejournal.com]

That's probably for the best. The machine at work scares me a little.

[likeabawws.livejournal.com]

I-is it a curse?

voice;

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

I will... keep that in mind.

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

It... scares you?

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

I'm assuming so since they were serious and I didn't believe them.

[risetwice.livejournal.com]

It spits out steaming milk.

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

Isn't it supposed to?

[risetwice.livejournal.com]

This is making me sound like I've never seen a coffee maker before, isn't it?
