Cosplay plannings

Alexithymiaa: -Adam stood at the counter with a comic book open in front of him, his elbows leaning down to rest on either side of it with his eyes turned down to read and study the pictures. He lifted one hand to stroke back through his hair, letting out a breath and turning the page of the comic.-
Tsaaq: "Bathrooms are cleaned for the night." She said as she walked out of the ladie's restroom and pulled off her latex gloves going over to the counter beside him then glancing out at the minimal amount of people left over in the shop. "Everything looks good. Right?" Bliss asked as she glanced at Adam.
Alexithymiaa: -He lifted his eyes from the comic and turned his head to look at her, sending her a cheerful smile with a nod. "Yeah. All the shelves are dusted and cleaned, the comics are all in their rightful places on the racks, and the floor was swept. Was there anything else we should do?"-
Tsaaq: She tapped her chin while glancing in the direction of the computers where the usual people had been. "Nothing for now. Not until closing anyways." Bliss answered, returning the nod. "Then we'll give the store one more check, straighten up and turn off everything and we'll be set." She said to him. "In the mean time-" Bliss pulled out her iPad and slid her fingers across the screen. "I have to dream up the January event."
Alexithymiaa: -He shifted to stand up straight, his eyes dropping down to th iPad in her hand. "What did you have in mind?"-
Tsaaq: "Weeellll." She started in a sing song tone. "We've done Star Wars, Rocky Horror, I suppose the next would have to be..." Bliss trailed off and sputtered her lips. "Perhaps Star Trek?" She asked with a shrug. "Is that too much 'star' things consecutively? Maybe." Bliss mumbled.
Alexithymiaa: -He leaned his forearm down on the counter, tipping his head up to stare into space for a moment to consider. "What if you generalized a little bit more so that you weren't narrowing your target demographic so much? Like maybe just superheroes in general. Or video games. Or something like that."-
Tsaaq: Bliss furrowed her eyebrows and tapped her chin as she held her iPad against her chest. "I see what you mean." She whispered with contemplation. "I like the video games one." Bliss waved her index finger at him in approval.
Alexithymiaa: -He moved to lean his back against the counter, crossing his arms over his chest. "I'm not sure what kind of entertainment you could be hosting with a video game theme though. Maybe a tournament of some kind?"-
Tsaaq: "Yeah of course, it could be any tournament. If anything it can be super smash because they just announced the new game." She said as she went back to glancing at her tablet. "Actually this works out pretty well. People can come dressed as video game characters while destroying each other in smash."
Alexithymiaa: "Taht sounds really cool. I would be into that. And I know a lot of people really like video games and it's a big factor for the clientele." He turned to look at a boy bringing up a few comics, reaching for them to scan them and ring him up.-
Tsaaq: She gave him a curt nod. "That's perfect. I will pitch the idea to Eli." Bliss said with a smile, waving at the boy at the counter now. "We should have plenty of time to plan this after the holidays. It's a good thing this conversation happened." She started to grin. "Thank you Adam."
Alexithymiaa: "You're welcome. I'm glad I could help." He reached for the boys cash, counting it out and putting it in the drawer to return his change. "Have a good night." He turned back to face Bliss, cocking his head to the side. "I'd be willing to help with any other things you need to plan, too."-
Tsaaq: She put the tablet down and leaned partially on the counter, rubbing her finger on it to see how clean it had been. "That'd be great. I can use as much help as possible. You know how I like things to go off without a hitch." Bliss rambled. "Alright! Fantastic." She applauded softly. "All that being said, how have you been? Your mix at the formal was transcendant by the way. Thanks again for that."
Alexithymiaa: -He smiled and looked away from her, scratching his fingers up through his hair. "Oh, thanks. I worked really hard on that.... but uh... things have been good. Really good. How has everything been with ya'll?"-
Tsaaq: "Good? That's great to hear." Bliss said with a smile. "Everything has been going fairly well, I must admit. Which is strange because I'm usually worried about everything but lately everything has been going pretty good." She shrugged a bit.
Alexithymiaa: -He furrowed his brows and droped his chin down into his palm. "Why are you usually worried about everything? Is everything not usually going well?"-
Tsaaq: She shrugged her shoulders again. "It doesn't really matter if it is or isn't, when you've got the mental ailment I posess." Bliss sighed a bit and waved her hand around her head then lowered them once more. "I've learned to live with it and manage it though so there's that. There's always a bright side." She forced a laugh.
Alexithymiaa: -His smile returned to his face, softening his voice as he watched her. "Well if you ever need anything, I'm always just a phone call away. It doesn't matter what it is or where you are or what time it is. You can just call me and I'll be there. Like Kim Possible."-
Tsaaq: Bliss smiled awkwardly and went to pat Adam on the shoulder. "Thanks." She said robotically and turned away. "I'm doing alright." She said with a nod. "But thank you for that. Do you know what's been going on with Hayley though, she's someone I'm more concerned about to be honest. I feel as if I'm in the dark to the whole situation."
Alexithymiaa: "Honestly, no. She pretty much evades me when I try to get to the bottom of what's up with her." He moved to the side to grab the comic he'd been reading, flipping it closed and placing it on top of a stack behind the counter.-
Tsaaq: ((Oh shit I forgot to reply lol.))
Tsaaq: "You and me both..." She furrowed her eyebrows and frowned a bit. "Harper seemed pretty concerned the other night, now I'm pretty concerned. Plus most of the things she posts on social media is a cry for help. I know that much." Bliss said before looking down at her phone and reading a text, staying quiet for a moment.
Alexithymiaa: "Well when I asked her about her blog she said it was more interesting to post sad stuff. So I don't know about that. But she's definitely acting different than normal." He paused to glance around the shop, watching the few stragglers making their way toward the exit. "What did Harper say?"-
Tsaaq: Bliss had stared at the text before replying, looking at the people exiting then pulling Adam to the side. "She said Hayley has been... Well sad, but she said it seemed like something more than being sad. And that's what made me worried." She replied softly "Um, do you know anything about her getting um..." Bliss trailed off.
Alexithymiaa: -Adam stepped to the side with her, dipping his head down to listen to her lowered voice. "Her.... oh. Oh, yeah. I've tried to tell her she needs to go to the police, but she refuses. If she won't make a report, there really isnt much anyone can do about it."-
Tsaaq: She lowered her head with a frown and went over to the cash register to count the drawer for the night as a distraction. "I'm highly inclined to agree but apparently it came out in front of Eli and he's not happy to hear about it at all." She said, still looking shocked.
Alexithymiaa: "Well of course not. No normal person would be happy to hear about it." He let out a deep sigh, pushing his hair back as he moved to the computer to clock out. "I just don't know what else to do."-
Tsaaq: "I don't know what to do and I just found out." Bliss murmured, speeding through her counting and closing the drawer. "Now I can see why she's been evasive lately." She said and turned to Adam. "I'll think of something... We can't just sit here and do nothing." Bliss said hurriedly as she gathered her things.
Alexithymiaa: "Yeah, I agree." He moved to the door, opening it and stepping outside, holding it open for her to follow him outside to lock the door. "Please let me know if you have any ideas. I want to help." He sent her a wave and turned, headin down the street to his truck to pull away.-
