hair salon (new echo) [ Here's Angeline, sitting in a salon chair as she tries to cover up the mild discomfort that is her hair being washed by the stylist with small talk. The small talk, however, is mostly carried by the stylist.
She never knows whether it's better to keep her eyes open (despite the odd angle) or keep them shut (despite holding a conversation). Both options are equally awkward to her.
Today, she's opted to keep her eyes closed. Really, though, neither option would benefit her any because neither allow her to see the sudden growth in her hair.
And boy is it dramatic. What was once waist-length is now thigh-length and spilling over the sides of the sink. The stylist is shocked. The adjacent stylists are shocked. The clients waiting for their appointments are shocked.
Angeline has no clue.
Now is the time for action, dear Numbered. Will you: a) freak out, b) pretend you're like all the other non-Numbered people, c) have mercy and get this poor girl the hell out of dodge, or d) other? ]
grocery (vermini) [ Cashier, bagger, and general grunt employee of a certain Locke City grocery store, Angeline is currently restocking the baking goods aisle. Holiday season always saw a blast through the spices.
As she goes to restock the depleted cinnamon column, her fingers brush against something fuzzy. With a tiny, strangled noise of surprise, Angeline whips her hand back and stares at the spot. A vermini scuttles out, zigzagging down the shelves and out the aisle.
She stares at its path, silently dumbfounded.
Then a whole bunch of vermini start pouring out of the spice rack. ]
