Who: Carmine and open Khalid and Rory
What: Shopping
When: Wednesday afternoon
Where: The Shoppette
He whistled as he walked the halls of Limbo, exiting from the leisure room and with the shoppette on his destination list. To do so, he had to pass through the cafeteria, which was nearly empty except for the personnel cleaning up between meals. It was a little early to drink, but never too early to prepare for a night of drinking. The tune on his lips was an upbeat, jaunty version of "Dream a Little Dream of Me," which he managed to do mostly in tune. He nodded at the cafeteria workers as he passed them, a pause in his tune just long enough to offer a charming smile. Then he was back to the music, his hands in the pockets of his dark jeans under a muted green sweater.
He wasn't the only one on his way to the shop that afternoon. As he reached the glass doors, he paused just in time to avoid a collision. Carmine straightened up and ceased his whistling, offering a similar smile as his earlier expression to this other person. "After you," he offered, with a gallant sweep of his hand. "Doing some shopping or simply here to kill some time? It has been boring lately." They were in a quiet period, perhaps fortunate with the holidays approaching, although too much quiet made him antsy in this place. The action was a nice distraction from the fact that they fell somewhere between prisoners and draftees, and when nothing was happening, it either gave him too much time to reflect and go stir crazy, or it gave him the sense that a shoe was about to drop.
