When: Today at 3:30
Warnings: Lol none

Even though she was still in the process of moving in, Sarah already knew Pax Letale had been the right choice. The view was amazing, the people were mostly friendly, and somehow a friend she hadn't seen in years ended up living in the same place. As long as none of her ex-boyfriends moved in - which she thought was a little too unreal to actually happen - then she really didn't have anything to worry about.

She'd spent her break getting plants for the nameless 103, and at 3 o'clock sharp punched out and caught a ride off a co-worker to get them back. Usually she would have taken the bus or a cab, but she needed the trunk space and didn't have a car of her own. Once she dropped them off in front of 103, feeling pretty satisfied with herself, she hurried back to her apartment and grabbed a quick shower before changing into denim shorts and a plain white t-shirt. With minutes to spare, Sarah headed down to the lobby with a simple purse slung over her shoulder and sandals on her feet. She hadn't really had a chance to get familiar with the area yet, and exploring with someone else was always more fun.

"It's why it's stayed popular throughout the times," Sheila said with a small smile. She let the subject drop beyond that though, noticing the look on Sarah's face. No need to keep on if she was uncomfortable with it.

She perked up as Sarah did - finding the reaction to a plant store just a bit amusing. "She ate six seeds and as a result had to spend the winter with him. That's why we have winter." Supposedly. "Not sure - that's the part the myths leave out, you know. We don't know if he asked before or any of that - just that he trapped her with a narcissus before carrying her off."

Moving to the door, she held it open for her. "Don't get too entranced by daffodils," she recommended. "They're not as nice as they seem." She'd looked it up years ago, when wondering exactly what a marcissus was.

There was a time when she used to watch soap operas, namely that one lazy summer when she'd been 'laid off' and hung around the house drinking pop and watching whatever was on television - and thus her introduction to the soap opera. They were ridiculously fluffy and silly, but at least provided amusement. Incest, or even kind-of incest, wasn't really part of any of the plot-lines she could remember, though.

"Well, at least she was free during the rest of the seasons - winter is the one I would pass on, if I had to choose." It wasn't much of a bright side, but it was something; although she doubted the underworld was a very pleasant place to be.

Sarah smiled before entering the store, sighing in relief - this place would do very well. "I'll do my best," she said over her shoulder. "Too bad Persephone didn't have anyone to warn her."

Sheila gave a playful grin. She couldn't help it, after the restraint from before. "Passing on winter, plants with a mother - you don't have a creepy boyfriend, do you?" Her tone was pure teasing - as much as Sheila believed in her myths and fantasy, applying them like this was only meant as a joke. "Maybe you're not Clark after all."

She followed Sarah in, looking around before heading towards a book stand. "Consider yourself warned, this time around."
