smart ass.

“Indigo, please.” He scoffed, shaking his head lightly. “I just wanted to know whether or not I should stop for the time being.” Adam said innocently, pushing his papers away from him. “You know I need company better than most.”

“Well you’re lucky that I’m good company Garrett,” Indy replied. “We should go out for coffee, get out of this dark corner of this store.”

Darcy looked at the list with poorly hidden disdain, although he did manage to bite back his sigh. “I’m not gonna like, get arrested for asking for these, right?”

“What? No,” Indigo replied, raising her eyebrows at the younger boy. “Why would you get arrested? Come on Lang, you gotta have some confidence in getting our ingredients if you want to become a potions master one day.”

“You could take the other off,” Ben suggested as he began looking for the shoe. He looked back at the one she still had so he knew what to look for. “Aren’t all heels weird?”

“Yeah, yeah, but walking with only one is extra weird,” Indigo replied. “I dare you to try it sometime.”

“It’d be going better if you let that nickname die.” He murmured, without looking up from his spreadsheet. It was giving him a headache, but he was determined to get through it. “It’s not bad. Are you looking for something, do I need to stop working?”

“What I can’t just talk to you? I have to be looking for something in order to interact with you?”

“Mmm.” Anastasia hummed as she nodded, barely looking up from the paperwork she had in front of her. It took her a moment to disengage and glance up, finally realizing what the woman had said. “Hmm? Oh, yes, sorry. Here is the clipboard. Just name, pet name, and time.”

Indigo took the clipboard. “Thanks,” she replied. She did what the woman said and handing it back to her. “Here you go.”

“Red is perfect, but I appreciate the consideration,” Micky said, closing the door and heading into the kitchen for some glasses.

“Okay, I’ll drink the white then,” Indigo replied. “Back to the baby thing though. Are you and Kyle planning to have kids?”

Startled, Micky shook her head, chuckling, “Uh, not that I’m aware of. Come on in, let’s get drunk.”

Indy walked in, taking off her shoes. “I wasn’t sure what type of wine you liked, so I got both a red and a white wine.”

“True. So, other than the puns, what are you up to these days?”

“Oh you know, poisoning people one potion at a time,” Indy joked.

“That would be tricky. I don’t know many guys who could handle you.”

Indy gave him a small shove. “You’re an ass, y’know that?” she replied with a roll of her eyes. “Any guy could handle me.”

“Do you need help finding it or…?” Ben laughed. “I can help you find it if you want.”

“Would you, please?” Indy replied. “They’re heels. I don’t know about you but I don’t enjoy walking around with one heel on. It feels weird.”

“Fair enough,” Arwen shrugged.

“At least you only get the puns part of the year.”

“Says the woman who’s not even seeing anyone,” Kyle teased. “Unless there’s a boyfriend somewhere you haven’t told me about.”

“Okay, okay,” Indigo replied holding up her hands in surrender, “fair point. Maybe it’s your turn to find me someone.”

“We do want kids. Eventually. We’re not in any hurry.”

“Well you’re not getting any younger,” she teased with a small smirk, obviously just joking.

“All the time,” said Arwen, rolling her eyes.

Indy put up her hands a bit. “Hey, I get the puns. You don’t get the name Indigo with out puns.”
