aphelion books, ft. matty ( @blednoir )
it's a relatively normal, peaceful day at the bookshop, customers coming and going throughout the day while ravi sits at their desk doing admin work. the bell rings above the door, and they glance up. “ hi matty, ” ravi says, “ looking for anything in particular, or did you just come in to say hi ? ” probably the former, with the way the town is at the moment — lots of people are looking for information to explain what's going on — but ravi can dream. “ 'cause i got a new record the other day, and i think you'd like it. ” they know matty prefers live music — have had arguments about it before — but this one's a real banger, and they're hopeful it might get her to acknowledge that pre-recorded music can be just as good.
