[hr][/center][color=F0E68C]"But..."[/color]

Well, Luna's declaration wasn't exactly unexpected but... it still wasn't what Xavier wanted to hear either. This was his nice freshly cleaned Spring outfit! He supposed it wasn't the worst case scenario though, after all she could have been yelling or blaming him, and he [i]did[/i] technically have a hand in spreading the mysterious soot around even if it was an accident. [i]Plus[/i] she said "help," not "clean this up yourself." All in all, he got off pretty easily once he thought about.

[color=F0E68C]"Okay,"[/color] he sighed, depositing his small basket of goods on the counter for her with a weak smile. He'd get started while she was ringing him out to make the clean up go as quickly as possible. He still had to get home and actually make something for the potluck after all. Speaking of the event, Xavier wondered if the store would be open all day or if the young shop keep would be joining the rest of the town for the festivities. Xavier was pretty sure the mayor must have called everyone in town given how excited his message made him sound. He glanced back at Luna. She didn't really seem the "festive" type but everyone needed some downtime now and then right?

[color=F0E68C]"...um, if you have any advice for the New Year's picnic,"[/color] he started, figuring some kind of small talk to fill the space would be nice. At the very least it would be nice for him. [color=F0E68C]"- I'd appreciate it. It's been a while, I'm kind of stuck on what to bring. I was thinking, well, ah, apples if it wasn't already apparent."[/color][hr][right][sup][@Inkarnate][/sup][/right]
