Zackary whipped around, all of the flour back up in his wings. He looked slightly uncomfortable but managed to ask, “How come we’re closing early?”
Zackary whipped around, all of the flour back up in his wings. He looked slightly uncomfortable but managed to ask, “How come we’re closing early?”
"I can't give my only two employees the day off?" Eden gave them both a side glance, "y'all'd rather work?"
Zackary simpered and waved his hands. “Nononono! I wasn’t saying that. I was just curious why you were closing. We can go now, I cleaned.”
"Good y'all have fun!" Eden waved them off as Afriel quickly dashed out and up the stairs to their room. She was excited to have the day off.
Zackary went outside to the back and shook out his wings again with a little purr of appreciation of the leveled comfort. He cleared his throat and went upstairs after Afriel.
Afriel had already changed from the clothing she usually wore when baking to something more casual by the time Zackary entered the room. "Why do you think she gave us the day off?"
Zackary shrugged off his floury flannel to replace it with a clean one, smiling. “Who cares? It’s a day off.”
"Hm, yeah. A day off is a day off. So! Where shall we go?"
Zackary shrugged again. “I have no idea. I haven’t been out much.”
Afriel thought for a moment, "then its an adventure." She smiled up at him before turning and starting out the door.
Zackary beamed and tailed her. “It’ll be an adventure. Adventuring. Yes.”
Afriel dragged Zackary around from place to place trying to guess where he wouldn't get bored. "This town is slightly boring when it comes to adventuring huh?"
Zackary was carefully hiding his emotions. He was actually enjoying watching the people of the town mingle and collectively live together instead of squabbling.
“It’s still fun, though.”
"I guess." Afriel shrugged. "Anywhere you want to try next? Because I don't think any clothing shop will interest you." She laughed slightly thinking of how bored he'd have been.
Zackary puckered his lips. “I dunno. I could use somme new clothes.”
Afriel raised her eyebrows at him, "you want to go clothes shopping?"
Zackary smiled. “I mighhhhhht…”
"Are you trying to prove a point? Or do you really want to go shopping?" Afriel tried to hide the slight excitement that came into her voice but was failing.
“I’d go with you.” He grinned at her. “It’d be a great reason to hang out with you.” And an innocent reason to look at you…
"Uh-huh." Afriel let a small smile cross her lips. "Then let's go! Lead the way."
Zackary turned and started to trot up the street. “Where were you thinking?”
"You're the one that said they needed clothes." Afriel shrugged.
“Do you want me to wear the same thing over and over?” Zackary asked exasperatedly.
"I mean that shirt does look good on you." Afriel smiled, "though it would get boring."
Zackary waved a hand. “Stop it. You’re embarrasing me. I wonder if I could find any more….?”
