Sure thing, bb! Please take care, and hopefully everything works out soon!

Once she had talked things out with Lest, and at least started to talk things out with Lyric, that left one person she still needed to talk to. If they were indeed back in town, as the gossip girl blast had indicated.

Although she knew where he lived, she figured it best to check the church first. He might not appreciate her showing up at his home unannounced, and Jamie tended to spend a lot of time at the church when he had free time. Hopefully her instincts weren’t wrong.

As she headed to her safe place, she couldn’t help but wonder what she was even going to say to him. It wasn’t likely he would have read the gossip, but he had been one of her closest friends before he’d disappeared. One of her only friends, really.

The thought made her feel nervous, as she hadn’t really known how she felt about Jamie before he left, but she had been devastated when she’d found out he’d disappeared. Maybe that was why she was always so eager to bring troubled people home these days, now that she thought of it. But now, she really didn’t know what to expect from him. He hadn’t said anything before he left, and she had so many questions for him that she was sure she would never even end up saying out loud.

Once she had arrived at the church, she let out a nervous breath before striding inside. And although she had come here for this very purpose, she still felt her breath catch when she saw that her friend had indeed returned.

“J-Jamie...? Y-You’re really back?!”

Lyric had been in a complete daze since the Moon Viewing holiday, and everything in his life had turned into a complete blur--unless it had to do with Dorothy.

So when he happened to overhear a conversation in which one of the people involved was referred to as ‘Jamie,’ which Lyric recognized as the name of one of Dorothy’s friends.

@demetersblizzard;

This was the place? Train wreck didn’t begin to cover it, but he was going to assume whoever owned the place was in the middle of re-decorating. Why they would re-decorate with that shade of paint he wasn’t sure. Whatever was under the coat surely would’ve been better than that. 

But he wasn’t here to critique the paint. He was here to meet a potential client. Vaughn made his way to the house, careful to avoid the newly dug flowerbeds and fresh paint. At the door, he knocked, then waited, arms crossing over his chest.

[🐎] — With the typical Arcadian tradition of having at least one monster or pet in one’s home, Georgia’s pet shop got quite a bit of business. Even more, now that she was starting to sell farm animals and horses that she bred on her own ranch.

...Her own ranch. Sunset Ranch. Georgia’s ranch.

She giggles. Even after all this time, she still couldn’t believe that that beautiful piece of land was hers. Just thinking about it put her into a good mood, and she can’t help but hum as she walks over to check on the kittens. They were the ones from one of the newest litters, and so weren’t ready to be adopted yet. But she knew that once they were, these little cuties would make whoever their new owner was the happiest person in the world.

Just then, she hears the sound of a bell ring throughout the relatively quiet shop, and glances up to see a person (with one of the strangest hair colors she’s ever seen) standing at the entrance. Putting on her most welcoming smile, she straightens up to greet the stranger.

Jamie didn’t go out much- especially in the daytime, aside from on his own farm. He preferred the solitude of night for many reasons; one of those reasons other people not being around to bother him.

But today, he had foolishly set out in the daytime in hopes of a break. He didn’t even have anywhere in mind- he was just wandering. That tended to calm him down the most for some reason.

Naturally he avoided as many more populated areas as he could, and he growled a bit under his breath if someone got too close.

He decided to head towards the port- he didn’t go towards that side of the island very often.

However, as he was walking someone came crashing into him from behind, causing him to let out a girlish yelp; he easily was mistaken for a female at times given his androgynous appearance, which honestly he didn’t care about. But what he did care about was when someone practically barrelled into him and then had to hear his pitiful sounding screech.

Dorothy couldn’t believe she had gotten herself into this. Working two jobs had been hard enough, let alone becoming the boss of one of those jobs. She felt like she never got any time away from work these days, and the girl sighed as she hugged Fern to her chest. She was tired already, and she still had to work a shift at the church. She hoped she could keep up this pace without burning herself out.

As she neared her second place of business, she spotted a rather familiar coloured poncho. She didn’t speak to Jamie very much, but he was hard to miss. He had a mysterious air about him, and he tended to keep to himself. However, he not only came to the church often, he also lived in the same building as her.

Normally she would have nodded her head and kept walking, but it seemed like he was actually headed in the same direction as her, and she didn’t want to seem rude either.

As she found herself falling into stride next to him, she glanced up at him nervously and offered a rather bashful smile as she finally whispered, “G-Good afternoon, Jamie. Uhm... A-Are you... P-Perhaps going to th-the church today...?”
