이 || in which korea attempts to sell drugs

[taegeuk]

( Ah, drugs. Don’t get too excited-we’re talking about the legal kind. But even those are necessary sometimes, along with all the other fun stuff you can find at the Mayfield Drug Store. Except today, you may see someone a little bit different at the front counter when you walk in. Yes, that’s right-Korea has been made a pharmacist. Aren’t you glad

[what

who made Korea a pharmacist

why would anyone make Korea a pharmacist

she's just here for cough syrup and possibly something horrible-tasting to maybe sneak into America's dinner tonight, but...]

You work here now?

[taegeuk]

( only the most insightful person ever, alright. it was pure genius )

Sure do!

[lotuslife]

[terrible. terrible.]

...

This is a joke, yes?

[taegeuk]

( terrible = awesome ? )

No, 'course not! I didn't even have to pick it, they gave it to me!

[Crowe's had a sort of unending stress headache since he woke up on Sunday, and since he took today off from school, he's popping into the pharmacy to pick up something for it.

He stops and looks at Korea's interesting remedies curiously. What's with that tree branch?]

[taegeuk]

( setting it down, Korea looks very happy to have a customer! )

Hello! How can I help you, da ze?

[perfektsymmetry]

Ah, I just… wondered what that was. With the tree branch?

[taegeuk]

Oh, it's for moxibustion! You fill it with herbs, set it on fire, then press it into your skin!

[Hachibe's generally a pretty healthy dude, but what the heck, everybody needs to go to the drugstore every once in a while. Maybe he needs some more deodorant or soap or something. Sure, let's go with that. Anyway, HI DAD.]

"Hey! I didn't know you worked here!"

[taegeuk]

Oh, it's Hachibe! Hi!

[pygmalion_perv]

We're out of shampoo, so I thought I'd come pick some up. The drones in our house use so much of it...

[taegeuk]

Maybe that's why their hair is so nice!

-Well then surely he can't notice the sudden feeling of being watched.-

[taegeuk]

( and he probably wouldn't, anyway. slurp, slurp this popscicle is good... )

[byeontae_geomi]

... You've got some talent for sucking there, stranger.

[taegeuk]

I guess so, yeah!

B haha placeholder... ish...

[ Taiwan's been looking all over for you, Korea! She runs up the counter, leans in and snatches that popsicle. ]

I've got information!

[ eating that popsicle now. what flavor is it? red? she likes red. ]

[taegeuk]

Hey! That was mine!

( yes it was red. sob. )

[hwamei]

Not anymore. [ She takes a bite out of it, mmmm, then takes out a piece of paper with her cute handwriting. These obviously aren't the notes the took the first time around - she rewrote them just for him he should feel special.

Taiwan looks around for anyone who might be listening to them before talking to Korea in a voice loud enough for only him to hear. ]

Look, my friend and two others broke into the City Hall a few days ago. I'm almost glad I didn't go there myself, but... [ She bites her lip - she doesn't want to think about it. ] Anyway, this is what they found out. I think it'll help us a lot if we wanna get out of here, or at least know what's going on.

[ She quickly slides the paper across the counter. It has notes on Grady, the mayor and a character new to both of them - Lucy Smith. ]

It looks like the mayor isn't in charge of this place after all.

[taegeuk]

( he's about to give her another whining response, but looks at the paper and suddenly thinks better of it. wiping off his hands, he grabs the sheet and examines it closely. )

So the boss isn't really the boss, huh?
