change was in my blood

   ⁠— ❝ HOY THERE , GRACIOUS CUSTOMER !! MAY I INTEREST YOU IN … Ugh. ❞ He breaks character to heave a long sigh , forgetting why originally he volunteered to do this. He stands outside his workplace , hands on his hips &  lightsaber in one hand - of course , dressed in an … interesting Santa Costume ; a brown cloak over the regular attire that seems to fit a WEE BIT too tightly. Jedi Santa Claus was what he went with ; it beat Inigo’s suggestions of Hot Santa Claus , and that may have been what the original costume meant for , but that wasn’t exactly Owen’s ballpark. So he waves his fake green lightsaber around , shaking his cloak and swaying back and forth. ❝ TO YE POTENTIAL CUSTOMERS !! Our Black Friday sales will be starting soon ; I will also take pictures if it means to check the store out !! I am only but a simple gracious Jedi waiting for my … SPACE SLEIGH OF THE GALAXIES to return … ❞ And a whisper , under his breath , ❝ I will breakdance in this costume if it means I get a raise. ❞ At least it helps him take part in his theatrics ; one of the reasons why he’s doing this in the first place. But the costume … that’s a bit much. ( Or maybe he secretly finds it cool , but he knows nobody else will. )

He feels a bit mean, but he can’t help bursting out at the sight of Odin when he spots him as he walks down the street. It’s been a long time since Niles shopped at The HQ or anything like it, but he could spare the the time for nostalgia especially when it applied to both this life and the last. “Ridiculous as usual,” he says casually as he arrives to stand beside his ally. “Now tell me, if I go in there and buy something does that mean they’re going to keep you out here embarrassing yourself for more or less time,” Niko asks with a slight smirk. “And how much would it cost to make you breakdance.”
