Who: Chris Halliwell and OTA What: Shopping, I guess! When: Thursday afternoon Where: Gifts That Last Warnings: Doubtful, depends on who replies??
For the most part, Chris felt like he was settling well enough. A job, his family, maybe even a sort of stable relationship building. That part was a little more uncertain still, but he liked it. Kept him on his toes. Even a few good friends. Which was still so new and different for him. People he could genuinely depend on had been rare back home.
But the truth was, he got bored easily here. He'd spent more than half his life toeing the line of danger, angering his brother on the regular, trying to stay alive. And the last several months before his arrival here in Madison Valley had been the worst of it. As good as it had been to see his mom and aunts alive, it was one tragedy or danger after another.
He should have been grateful for the time to rest. And for the most part, he was. But he still felt constantly on edge.
So wandering a store that sold aromatherapy and gemstones appealed both to his witchy side and to his need to relax. That constantly neurotic, jittery side of him could use the lavender. And maybe he could pick up a potions ingredient or two. Magic did always calm him. And he did still need to figure out the Emma and Julian thing. He'd promised, after all.
