1. Lemony fresh
"Oh, guinea piiiiig!!"
Jason bellowed from the back room of the Apothecary, grinning like a maniac at the name that he'd called her. Really, she was, for all intents and purposes, his guinea pig. At least, when it came to new potions and the like. She'd told him that she would be willing to try out his new stock before he actually put it on the market.
Well.
She might not have said it exactly like that, but it was close enough that he took it as such. When she appeared in the doorway with a somewhat insulted look on her face, his grin turned sheepish. "Oh, Natalie?" he ammended, not looking very sorry in the least. Crossing her arms, she waited for him to say whatever it was that he'd called her for, which he got to without much more dancing around.
"I have this new potion..."
"No." She'd interrupted him before he'd even been able to finish, which meant that he would have to wheedle a little to get her to take it. Which, he did. He was just good that way, and he tended to be able to get her to do things with very little effort on his part. Really, she must have wanted to be the test subject. That was his opinion, anyway.
When she took a sip of the potion, her arms started sprouting. And she... smelled. But it wasn't a bad smell, per se. No, it was more...
He snorted. She looked at him with a look that said 'What did you just do to me, Jason Richland?!' and the only response that he had? "...well, at... least you're lemony fresh?" With that, he burst into laughter, and didn't even mind her smacking him upside the head.
