[Arrival GP] it’s summer, right?

[st_artliving]

June, Xavin decided, was a puzzling month. It still seemed like spring in some ways, but was very summer already in others. Among the ways that it was summer: less demand for hot drinks. And yes, she could do iced, but that tended to mean hauling ice to her coffee-cart territory and that got old fast.

Since it was arrival day, therefore, she was trying something new. She’d taken over part of the cafe (with a decentish view of the lobby) and set it up with blenders, fruits, and other things. Surely smoothies would be acceptable, and the cafe space meant not having to haul ice.

As a further acknowledgement of probable sun and warmth, Xavin ensured there were obvious stacks of towels near the more usual baskets of things for new arrivals. If there were any newcomers and she’d forgotten something, well... it would probably be all right eventually.

She scrunched her nose again. "I'll pass on the work, thanks." Aphrodite didn't do work. Clearly this kid had a lot to learn. "Plus I don't share. If there are other gods being worshiped there -" Aphrodite wiggled her fingers in the direction she sensed the temple "- I so don't want to be there too. I'll figure something out." She winked at him. "If you ever find someone you got a crush on, come ask me for some advice. I have a feeling you'll need it."

She bent a little and with her index finger gave him a little tap on his nose. Then she disappeared in a flourish of golden sparkles.

For half a second, Toby was in awe of the gold sparkles. Thor really needed to do that when he teleported. BUT then he scowled at the empty space where she'd been. "HEY! I don't need crush advice. I have a GIRLFRIEND and Darci's the best!" He was smart enough to hold his tongue and not add that she was prettier than her - even though she was, at least in Toby's eyes.
