◊ ♫ ◊— look what the cat dragged in! that’s MORTICIA GARRETT and SHE is an around 26-year-old CASUAL VISITOR to the store, but they’ve been in the neighborhood for 26 YEARS. I think they are a WAITRESS and I overheard them listening to WORK IN PROGRESS by TA-KU, and, I dunno man, it seemed pretty fitting. Like, call me shallow but I look at them and think of BANITA SANDHU and ECHOING FOOTSTEPS, WASTING YOUR YOUTH, BUTTERFLY WINGS, AND SCREAMING UNDERWATER. (ooc info: garnet, she/her, est, 22)
Welcome to Fidelity Records! Is it your first time here?
“Why? Do I look familiar?”
Where are you from?
“The lab in your dad’s basement.”
Cool, cool. Okay, so, not to be one of those people, but what’s your star-sign? Or zodiac sign, whatever you want to call it.
“I’m a Taurus. Funny, I’m one hundred percent full of bull. But, like, not right now. I’d never lie about that to one of those people.”
Fair enough. I’m a Pisces and, like, we’re known for getting our heartbroken. Anyone or anything break your heart lately?
“You guys took that copy of Justin Bieber’s new album out of the front window. Thanks for all the emo poems I’m gonna write after this.”
Sorry to hear it. Well, we’re here for you. That’s why we have a bell over the door. Heard it helps with broken hearts because angels get their wings or some shit. I dunno. You got any weird superstitions?
“You’re talking to someone who owns a black cat. Maybe I’m a witch who can’t be killed by some dumb superstition.”
Thanks for humoring a complete stranger, my dude. You get a discount on whatever you buy if you tell me your favorite song.
“Uh. Tough. I guess it’s Work in Progress by Ta-ku. If we were all perfect, we’d have no reason to keep living, blah, blah, blah.”
