Who: Guy and Marian [closed]
When: Monday Morning
Where: The Grocer's
What: Guy and Marian bump into each other somewhere unexpected.

Guy was nervous. He had no idea what this new job would have in store for him, or what would be expected of him. Morgana had told him he'd need to find a job if he wanted to look after himself, but Guy was no stranger to having to work for his money. He just hoped working in this "grocery" would be better than working for Vaizey for all those years.

When he'd come in to applied for the job the sign in the window had been advertising, they had said he'd mostly be doing heavy lifting. Guy wasn't afraid of manual work. He was strong and it would make a change from fighting.

Taking a deep breath, he walked into the shop and looked around for the man he'd talked to before; the man who'd hired him.

Guy eyed the little segment of orange in her hand. He had heard of the fruit before, but never tasted it. A little hesitantly, he reached out at took it. He raised it to his lips and gave it a little nibble. It was sweet, but bitter. He didn't like it very much. He pulled a face. "Do you want the rest?" he said, offering the nibbled segment back to her. He supposed he just liked the food he knew. There was nothing wrong with that. Morgana had shown him where to find food in the shop near their building. He would make do with that, and leave exotic fruit to Marian and her sense of adventure.

Marian shook her head as he offered it back to him. The look on his face told her that he clearly did not like it, so she took it back, setting it down on the table in frong of her as she ate the rest of the fruit. "Still, you should try much of this food. A lot of it is very interesting." She had been exposed to it before the time changed, and most of that had been because of the woman with whom she was rooming with, Buffy.

As she finished the orange, the small section he had eaten on still in front of her, she got up and took the peel and that section to the trash. "Alright, heavy lifter, Would you carry that out to where I was before?" She hoped he could get used to seeing her again after knowing that he had killed her himself. Even knowing that information, she still cared for him. She did not love him, but she wished him well.

Guy looked around the store room. Some of the food here looked completely alien to him. He had a feeling it would take him a little bit of time to even come around to the thought of trying most of it. Still, if he was going to be here for a long time like these others seemed to have been, then, in time, trying new things might become easier. For the time being, he'd stick to what he knew as far as possible.

Pushing himself up, he walked across to the crate she was indicating. It wasn't particularly heavy when he picked it up, but he was glad it was his job to carry it, not hers. "After you," he said, nodding towards the door.

Marian quietly smiled as she walked through the door in front of him and back toward where she had been arranging the oranges with the woman she had been answering to for the day. She was also very nice, and was very helpful in telling Marian what was needed of her and how to do it. She motioned for her to come over to her when they got into the area and Marian followed, motioning for Guy to put to oranges down where they needed to go. As her supervisor told her that socializing while on the job was not good and then told her to continue arranging the orange, Marian stood and nodded, making sure to tell her she would do what was needed of her.

When she went back over to the oranges, she started arranging them, and looked over to Guy. "Sorry about that, I need to be doing this."

Guy followed and set down the oranges beside her. He frowned. He hadn't meant to get her in trouble. He glanced at the other woman before looking back to Marian. "Do you need anything else?" he asked, motioning back towards the store room. He really just wanted to be able to get on with something so he didn't have to keep controlling himself around her. This was definitely going to be hard, working here with her, but he had to learn how to deal with it. He liked seeing her, and this was a perfect opportunity that Robin couldn't control.
