Freja walked out of the backroom, carrying with her a three feeth long shrivled elephant p***s. It had took her longer than expected. For some reason, someone had put it with the Ostrich's neck instead of the Giraffe's. Stupid movers! Oh well. "There, you just need to let it dip in water for ten minutes then drink the water and every-uh? Where's the boy?" She asked Una who was on the ground praying? Strange, she didn't thought the girl was religious. Unless...OH! Was she praying the goddess? Had just opened her mind to the great energy surrounding us? Was she now part of the collective unconscious? Nah, probably not. Still, she did have some talent for magic and she studying a lot of spells. Freja had great hope for her.

The purple hair girl pouted. She had went through all the trouble to find the Elephant p***s for nothing. Such an ungrateful child. "Ah... yes... He will be... He's just in love with you, it's not a big deal.." Worst came to it, Una could always get a restraining order on the boy. With the kind of people running the police station, if wouldn't be a hard thing to do. She probably wouldn't even have to give a reason as to why she wants one.... "Ah, yes... We should clean but... it can be dangerous... give me a second..." The woman went back to the backroom, where she put the giant groin back where it had to be, and put on a full body suit. She came out of the backroom, dressed to fight an army of mess. Her names was reja Ingrid Ruthie Von Der Bach and she Ended Messes

"Ach gut.. you can haben sie fun vith ztat." Una said as she traveled around the counter and plopped her butt down. "I vill vait for customers und deal vith ztem ja?" Una smiled. Hey it was a good trade off. Una didnt want to have to clean all that up. It was different when it was her own mess.

[New Day?]
Woah, this place was really pruple! How could she not have noticed this place sooner? She had been in the town square multiple times, for festivals and just on her long roundabout walks to find other businesses, but she had never seen this building. At least she liked the color purple. Had this building been completely pink Celeste may have had to walk away and simply call Freja.
Taking a deep breath and mentally preparing herself for the hokiness to come, Celeste opened the door to the cute little shop and stepped inside. Stopping just inside the door she looked around, her eyes widening in surprise at how adorable the shop was! A smile spread across her face as she realized she could do this. Maybe she was getting used to this islands horrible magic affliction, or maybe Freja and her store were simply to sweet to creep her out... yet.
Moving toward the counter she called out, "Hey Freja... you here? It's Celeste. We have a date remember? It's Monday! Movies!" She said happily.

Coming from under a pile of books right next to Celest, was Freja. What was she doing buried under all those books? One would be wise to not ask, but it might just have something to do with the dead octopus she on her head and the glasses so large they were hiding her face. "Uh? Oh! H-hello C-Celest!" Exclaimed the shop owner when she finally noticed where the voice had come from! What was she doing there? Oh! The movie! Of course. She knew that! She hadn't forgot, she just... well, she was expecting to be stood up or something. "I w-wasn't ex-expect-ting you.... I m-mean, y-yes I was b-but n-not now. I mean, not th-this early." That much was true. She thought movies where something you did at night, not during the day... then again, she had never seen a movie before. Just heard about them. Well, she had seen movies, but just those on TV. Not in a real theatre. "B-but it's alright! I.. I'll go get my things?... Do I need anything?"

"Oh!" Celeste couldn't help the squeak of surprise at the dead octopus on Freja's purple head. Her glasses were just a tad bit scary too. They were large and hid most of her face, and with that octopus... yeah... strange. Celeste shook her head for a second to realign her thoughts. "Uh... no...nope. Well, maybe a jacket, sometimes movie theaters are cold? But other than that.... did you know that you have an ocopus on your head. And can you really see through those glasses?" She asked, one eyebrow raised questioningly. "Aaaaaand no hurry. I'm probably early. I just tend to prefer matinees." She said with a shrug. "I can wait a bit if you need to finish something up?"

 "Uh?" The woman said, before patting the top of her head, touching the octopus. She did a frown that couldn't be seen because of the glasses before grabbing the cephalopod on her head, and bringing it in front of her eyes. "Oh! Gunther! That's where you were! Naughty boy!" She moved away from Celest and the pile of books to go closer to a large thank of water, where she dumped the dead octopus... that turned out to not be so dead. "Sorry, he got a t-end-d-dency of trying to escape. All that because he d-doesn't want me to use his ink-k." Some mollusk needed to learn how to share, really. She then removed her glasses from her face, putting them next to the thank. "Oh, those glasses aren't t-to see. They are to help you find th-things you have l-lost." And they worked! Afterall, she had found Gunther again! "A coat? Yes, yes... I... I'll be right back.." She had one! It was in the back room, so she went there to change. About five minutes later, she came back with a totally normal coat. "Alright, I'm...I'm ready to go.... U-Una will take care of th-the store.."

Celeste raised an eyebrow at Freja's name for the octopus. Gunther? Her questioning look turned to one of shock when the dead looking octopus flaired to life once it hit the water. Well holy crap, that thing was alive! And Freja used him for ink... no wonder the poor thing was playing dead. Celeste smiled to herself.
She was so excited about going to the theater, doing something normal for goodness sake, on this island that not even Freja's slightly wanky description of the glasses was going to ruin her mood. "Take your time~" She called after Freja, as the girl went to get her coat.
Once Freja emerged from the back Celeste looked her over having not expected such a coat. Breaking into a wide grin she reached out and grabbed Freja's hand. "Perfect! Let's go."
[Exit to Theater! Bum-bum-bum!]

//New Day~
In the two and a half minute it had taken them to go from the Goverment Office to the Magic Box, the hurricane had started, and it had started BIG. She was already drench! Well, okay, maybe not, but she was far from being dry! "Ah-haa.... I'm wet..." She said, stating the obvious with a pout as she entered the shop, Alex following behind her. She walked around, opening the lights...the real ones, not the candles. Candles light was only for business hours. "So..yeah... that's my shop...and.. that's Gunther." She pointed to the top of one of the shelves, toward the center of the shop where the big octopus was, staring at them through it's dried cephalopod's eyes. The woman sigh, before grabbing a stool to climb unto in order to grab that octopus and putting it back into it's water tank. "He's suicidal." She explained. Just her luck! Getting a suicidal, bright, but suicidal, octopus.

 Yeah, Alex was glad he didn't have to wait in the government office until this godawful rain stopped, but it still didn't change the fact that the storm had hit them suddenly and strongly. His clothes were just damp, but his hair, the highest part, was on the verge of dripping, and his bangs were in his eyes. Stupid long hair. He really needed to get a haircut. It was getting annoying, but he just didn't have the time or motivation to go to a salon, and he didn't trust River or Elliot.
When they stepped inside the shop, Alex brushed his bangs out of his eyes and looked around. This... was not what he had expected. If anything, he had expected Freja's shop to be something quiet and girly, like a flower shop or something like that. Not... whatever the hell this was. He didn't say anything as she introduced the octopus. He was suicidal? Alex hadn't gone to an actual college, so he wasn't some sort of sea creature psychologist, but... How could an octopus be suicidal?
After a moment, Alex cleared his throat and shifted his weight uncomfortably. "Err... Freja," he began, looking at the girl hesitantly. "What kind of shop is this?" There were too many different and unrelated items surrounding him for him to put it together himself.

 After putting Gunther back into his tank and closing it, the woman turned around to look at Alex in confusion...again. She thought it would have been pretty obvious what it was. Or maybe Alex knew nothing about the occult? She proceeded to do the classical, hands in front, eye close, large smile. "It's a magic shop! For the friends of anything occult! This Season's promotion : Buy a shrunk head, receive a candle for free!" And it was a good promotion too! The sale on shrunkheads had almost doubled since last year! Well, of course, they had went from 2 to 3, but like Teddy had said previously, gottat keep thinking positive! She opened her eyes again, remembering that she was talking to her date and not to a new customer. Bad move Freja, bad move! "I... I mean... uh.... yeah. Sorry about th-the sale p-pitch..." She had practice it so often in front of the mirror that it had came out by itself. "If... If you w-want someth-thing... I c-can make you a p-price." That would be nice, no? Since they were on a date, she shouldn't charge him full price. That would just be mean.

 Alex frowned and crossed his arms. Magic shop? But wouldn't that be something a little bit different? In his mind, when he tried to picture a magic shop, he thought of white doves and rabbits and top hats and playing cards, not a suicidal octopus. He glanced around a few times. Nope, none of it fit what he would consider standard magic shop fare. The occult probably was more accurate, but that didn't make it any easier for him to understand.
Still, he couldn't help but smirk when she fell into shopkeeper mood. Ahh, now it made more sense, her owning a shop. He scratched the back of his neck awkwardly. He was slowly getting used to the shop, but... he still didn't know how to act. He was stuck there until the rain weakened, and he felt sorry for Freja, so instead of just leaving, he was actually going to make an effort and linger. "Uh, no, thank you," he offered finally. He was uncomfortable. It was obvious he was uncomfortable. "What do you use these things for anyway?" Shrunken heads? Candles? Really, he couldn't think of a practical use for any of those.

 Oh! So he really was lost at all that! She should have known. Still with the many (three a day max, always including Freddy) customer she was having, she had started to believe that everyone on the island were practitioner of the art. "Uhm... well... Uh.... Gunther gives m-me ink?" That was the only reason why she kept saving the octopus from drying outside his tank after all. Quite a clever one, though. Always finding new ways to leave the tank... maybe she should buy a cover. "And c-candles are n-needed in ev-v-very ritual. And Shrunkead g-got many uses... Manly in charms." A necklace made of them was sure to bring you good luck for a whole season! People should really learn to appreciate those old dried up heads more. "Over th-there", she said, pointing to the shelves where random body parts were floating in a green-blue-ish liquid, "Are th-the more ingrediant for ch-charms... and the shelves n-next to i-it are th-those for the p-p-potions." I really was easy to shop in her store! All the ingredients were organized by type!
She smilled at Alex, being sure that the boy would be impress with her shopkeeper skills! Well, technicly, it had been Teddy who had told her where to put everything, but the plush was currently being soaked in the middle of the playground (she should remember to go get it once the weather changed), so he wasn't there to tell Alex that was (sort of) lying! "Oh!", she exclaimed when an idea came through her head. That was a fun activity they could do while on a date! "Do you want me to read your f-fortune? Tarot?" She hadn't practice in a while and she loved to do that.
