"Hey,  I'm  so  sorry  but  we're  actually  closed!"  Once  again,  she'd  forgotten  to  lock  the  door,  a  bad  habit  she'd  fallen  into  when  going  through  the  motions  of  closing  the  store  for  the  night.  With  the  sun  already  set  and  most  of  the  lights  already  out,  she  hadn't  expected  the  soft  chime  of  the  bell  above  the  door  to  actually  ring,  and  yet  there  she  was.  Closing  alone  was  already  somewhat  unsettling  (and  she  didn't  do  herself  any  favours  by  ready  scary  stories  late  at  night)  but  she  stepped  out  from  the  back  room  anyway.  What's  the  worst  that  could  happen,  right?  "Okay,  look,  I'm  not  meant  to  do  this  but  if  you  can  give  me  a  really  good  reason  you  need  to  shop  right  now,  I'll  turn  the  till  back  on.  You  have  to  shop  in  the  dark,  though.  I'm  not  walking  into  that  dark  storeroom  to  turn  the  lights  back  on."  She  braced  both  hands  on  the  counter  with  a  grin.  "It  can  get  a  little  creepy  back  there."

under the veil of the room's darkness, identity concealed from the claws of judgement and consequences, garin allyrion can speak as spiteful as he pleased. loud disapproving groan overpowering the movie scene made cozy by its perfectly produced soundtrack. ❝ by all means, take your time finding a seat . ❞ the sarcasm cuts through like a knife, hands shoved down the bucket of popcorn to grab a few pieces, popping them into his mouth as he kept his eyes on the figure intruding his alone time.

he hadn't even there long before the string of mishaps began to unfold. the unruly group of teenagers caught within earshot, their boisterous cheers and reckless vigor flooding the slopes as is expected of the privileged few. theodore was in no position to make judgement because from the way he remembered things, they were, perhaps, even worst than this lot. but of course, even with his meticulous attempts to evade them, trouble rolls down like an avalanche around him, and another caught in the middle of their show of courage, ❝ hey , watch out ! ❞ he calls out, hands frantically waving for the other to get out of the way.
