The York Gallery; Wednesday [ 04/09 ] -- Grand Opening!

Apr 09, 2008 12:31

Tonight was finally the night. Everything was perfect, and, while perfect wasn't quite good enough for Charlotte, she figured it would just have to do. The gallery quietly seemed to glisten with its newness, its modernity, large opened spaces and smaller, quieter nooks and alcoves. Covered the walls on large, bright canvases were the works of ( Read more... )

For the employees and other volunteers to help Charlotte or be freaked out at by her before the big event!

Eve was so not looking forward to going to her boss and saying "Hey, guess what? I are a boy today!"

So it was a rather awkward-looking boy!Eve that was seeking out Charlotte.

Charlotte was a little confused to look up from where she had been adjusting a plate of cheese and crackers (again. For the fiftieth time in an hour) to see someone she didn't know drift in. She frowned, slightly, although it was mostly in her forehead, before straightening, smoothing out her skirt, and asking, "Um, excuse me? May I help you?"

It held a tone that suggested that there better be a good reason why someone was drifting in early, before even any of her employees had arrived.

One of said employees grinned ruefully. "Don't suppose you've encountered any Fandom weirdness yet, huh?"

Because really, if she had, that'd make explaining this easier.

Re: Pre-Opening [ 04/09 ] perfectmissyork April 9 2008, 18:07:05 UTC

That was an...interesting answer to the question. "Um, well," Charlotte said, eying the boy suspiciously. "There was that whole pudding thing, and there's hiring that shapeshifting kid, and the fact that one of the officers here looks like my ex-husband. Does that count?"

Charlotte didn't know what she'd do if they didn't because, in her book? That was pretty darn weird.

Re: Pre-Opening [ 04/09 ] blackmagic_eve April 9 2008, 18:20:32 UTC

"Yeah, that counts well enough," Eve said. "The island also tends to change people into stuff. Like the weekend where I was myself from twenty years in the future, or the other weekend when I was weetiny. Apparently today it's changing girls into boys. Which explains why I'm not here in one of the pretty, pretty dresses I bought specifically for this job."

Re: Pre-Opening [ 04/09 ] perfectmissyork April 9 2008, 20:37:13 UTC

"I had the weetininess mentioned to me, too," Charlotte said, slowly, still eying the boy, but with a thoughtful sort of suspicion as she processed what he...she was saying. She also entertained the fact that this could very well be Teddy just playing a trick on her, but she was going to go ahead and take a wild stab in the dark.

"...Eve, then?"

Re: Pre-Opening [ 04/09 ] blackmagic_eve April 9 2008, 23:37:30 UTC

"Yep, sad to say." Eve made a face. "And I am so sorry for being a boy tonight of all nights."

Re: Pre-Opening [ 04/09 ] perfectmissyork April 9 2008, 23:47:14 UTC

Charlotte drew in a deep breath, closing her eyes, and then let out a long breath. This place. So help her, if it weren't for small mercies, she would not be able to stay in this place very long in the slightest. "It's...okay," she said, feeling awkward about saying it was okay for something so bizarre. "I mean, you...being...male won't interfere with your ability to make sure people don't touch the painting and keep the food stocks, I imagine..."

Re: Pre-Opening [ 04/09 ] blackmagic_eve April 10 2008, 00:13:54 UTC

"It won't," Eve promised. "I'll have to run out and pick something up -- " because the jeans and t-shirt she'd handwavily borrowed from someone wouldn't cut it for actual work. " -- but then I'll be back. I just figured you'd like to know about the sudden bout of male first."

Re: Pre-Opening [ 04/09 ] perfectmissyork April 10 2008, 00:18:31 UTC

"I, uh, I'm definitely glad for the head's up, Eve, thank you," Charlotte said, nodding her head. "Um....hope you...get better soon, I suppose?"

Re: Pre-Opening [ 04/09 ] blackmagic_eve April 10 2008, 01:06:32 UTC

"Heh, so do I. Believe me, so do I." Eve laughed softly. "So! I'm gonna head out, take half an hour to hit Pixie Dust and buy something appropriate, and then I'll be back." She tilted her head. "Anything I can do for the gallery while I'm out?"

Re: Pre-Opening [ 04/09 ] perfectmissyork April 10 2008, 02:27:13 UTC

"No, we should be good," Charlotte nodded, "but thanks for the consideration."

Re: Pre-Opening [ 04/09 ] palestshadow April 10 2008, 00:34:17 UTC

Naminé had planned on stopping in to help, and now was fidgeting a bit, wondering if this was a terrible idea.

She cleared her throat. "Charlotte?"

Re: Pre-Opening [ 04/09 ] perfectmissyork April 10 2008, 00:36:49 UTC

"Yes?" Charlotte glanced over toward where the boy was. "Can I help you?"

Re: Pre-Opening [ 04/09 ] palestshadow April 10 2008, 00:42:40 UTC

Naminé folded her hands behind her, and cleared her throat. "I was going to offer to help you," she said, sounding embarrassed. "And then I think I was going to ... not call attention to myself at all, but then you would think I skipped the opening, which would seem rude after our previous conversation."

She blushed. "I don't usually look like this," she added, hoping that was a good place to start.
