#WONDERFALLS EPISODE 6 PLUS#
Plus they have SoBe Shooters for the big girls. “Isn’t that, like, a bus driver’s holiday for those guys?” “Yeah, but with the combination of her appetite and their employee discounts, life is good. “Yup.” “We, uh, wanted to treat you guys to dinner, to show our appreciation for stopping the demon under the Falls.” “Why don’t we all meet at The Barrel after seven? Mahandra’s off and Eric can take an hour or two if the second bartender is there.” Xander frowned. So.you guys are heading out soon?” “Tomorrow,” agreed Xander, “So you’ll have three fewer pains in your rear.” “Naw, you guys are fine-” “-so long as we’re leaving,” Xander finished. And Andrew and I have both been bouncing ideas off your brother-” “And I know you’ve been giving something called the ‘donut-guy lecture’ to my boyfriend, ‘cause he sent me a text. Vi’s given Mahandra a thumbs up and some recommendations for different skills to round out her training. “Seriously, Jaye, I feel a lot better about your guys’ situation. Xander tried to look nonchalant as he wiped the drool.
“Yeah? And you’ve got a little bit of drool right here,” I pointed to the mirror-image spot at the corner of my mouth, ‘cause nobody likes strangers poking fingers and wiping their face. “You’re really good at deflecting attention from yourself,” he said when his eye wasn’t glazed over in lust anymore. Of course then Mahandra would jump in to defend me and Eric could just add Jello and sell tickets.” Xander was quiet for a little too long. I already got employee of the month award this year.” “You’re not too comfortable with praise, are you?” “I would say something about your astonishing perception, but I think Vi might kick my ass. “Jaye, that was amazing!” He stage whispered, “You spotted the Lesser Asura in human form, then talked her into leaving without starting a battle in the middle of civilians.” “Please stop.
Xander stared at me with an expression that I’ve seen far too often in the last year. Have a nice day!” “Arrrgh,” the not-a-customer growled, then stomped out of the store. “Please have a complimentary ‘Maid of the Mist’ fridge magnet. I put one hand under the counter, on the Taser that I keep since the take-over robbery last year. I could tell she was deciding whether or not to start a fight. “My best friend’s a Slayer, and this guy here is a Watcher and bounty hunter who will take you down right now, unless you leave quietly.” The not-a-person’s face alternated between rage and fear. “Why you little-” “Unh-uh,” I interrupted the not-human customer.
#WONDERFALLS EPISODE 6 SKIN#
Whoa! Her skin changed color for a split second and her eyes glowed bright red. The annoying customer reached across the counter to grab my wrist and I accidentally bumped her with the dull, silvered blade. The opener had Satsuma designs and was silver-plated-we sell them for $29.95. I got the letter opener from the pencil barrel. “Excuse me, can I get some help?” Smushed-faced lion #9 insisted, “Open a letter!” “Mmm-hmm,” I stalled. “Shhh! I’m thinking.” Right then, a female customer who’d been rummaging through our merchandise none-too-neatly since 15 minutes before I went on break elbowed Xander aside. Xander looked over the counter at me, then the wax lion.
“Because when I used to call him Fargo, like the old horror flick, he thought it was a compliment.” Smushed-face lion #9 looked up from the counter and said, “open a letter.” I glared at it. “I’m sorry you had to meet Mouth-breather.” “Why do you call him that?” A little bit of smile tugged at the corner of Xander’s mouth. Okay?” “Fine.” Mouth-breather flounced off and Xander blinked at the exchange but said nothing. “Fine, I’ll stand here at the cash register and work while I talk to Xander and still punch out normal time. If it’s personal, that’s all the time she’s got.” I hurried out of the break room without looking like I was hurrying. She should be done in.7 minutes, if this is work related. “Excuse me, I’m looking for Jaye Tyler.” Mouth-breather answered, “She’s on break. Through the open door I heard a half-recognized voice from the front counter. “I thing I’ll call you ‘Number Thirteen.’ And that’s NOT lucky.” Annoying lion said nothing. Two days later I sat in the break room at Wonderfalls, contemplating a brand new smushed-face lion.
