She dropped a couple of slices of bread in the toaster as she listened to Claire outlining the news. Oh boy, a murder, and something about the Unseelie. She'd heard a little about the Unseelie Fae, but not much, she decided that she'd do some research on them later. Might as well find out who they were, she wondered if it had anything to do with the unusual weather outside, seeing as how they usually didn't get this much snow, but she figured it could also be just a freak weather thing. In any case, she didn't want to assume things, especially not with the Others. Too many people did too much assuming about them. She was so deep in thought that she jumped when the toast popped out of the toaster. She plopped the pieces of toast down on two of the plates before putting another slice of bread in the toaster. She took Claire's silence on the matter to mean that she did want toast. She pondered whether there was anything she needed from the store for a moment. [color=4364D1]"I don't think I need anything, but thanks anyway!"[/color] Katie smiled gratefully as she took the last piece of toast from the toaster and put it on the last plate before gulping down about half of her coffee, she drank things she liked quickly anyway, and it had finally cooled off enough that she could do so. [color=4364D1]"Hopefully people will come to their senses soon. It's not like Others being around is anything new, only our knowledge of it is."[/color] She added as she sat down and began to butter a piece of toast.

Despite the weather, some of Talia's clients still wanted to meet to go over housing prices, and she couldn't refuse since she had these appointments scheduled a couple of weeks in advance. Damn those Unseelie Fae! Damn them to-... well she certainly didn't want to see them there either. Maybe they should just all go to heaven and annoy the holier-than-thou angels, it would serve them right. A small smile crossed her lips as she imagined angels and Fae arguing over the most trivial matters. Anyway, in order to handle the weather and her clients, she needed some coffee, and possibly a bit of mischief. The Early Bean was the perfect place for this. It was small enough where any disturbance would be noticed, but popular enough where anything could happen. Maybe she'd get to start a fight, that would be a good excuse to back out of one or two of her four appointments that day. Even just a heated argument would be enjoyable at this point, or someone being discontent with their coffee, she was incredibly bored. She hadn't been able to find anything new to do in such a long time. Lately she'd begun to share a house with someone, it left her more money to do other things she wanted, even though she had plenty and nothing to do with some of it. But this wasn't much of an exciting venture as much as her running out of things to do and deciding that having a roommate was worth trying. She turned on the radio as she neared the Early Bean. She should have been there a good fifteen minutes ago, but the weather was not helping traffic, and quite a few cars had spun out on the side of the road. It was pleasant to watch the distraught faces of those on the side of the road, but Talia was still bored! As she finally pulled into the coffee shop parking lot, she hoped that something, anything interesting would happen. Then she grabbed her purse, stepped outside into the bitter wind, locked her car and headed through the doors, into the warmth and the smell of heated coffee beans.
