Office Hours - Abnormal Psychology

[romanywitch]

Jenny is sitting in her office, quietly typing on her laptop. She has some Solstice gifts for any members of her class that might stop by, something special for her TA, and presents for the Investigators' Club members who have magical abilities.

She'll ask Kiki to deliver the other gifts in the interests of promoting roleplay with new people.

"That's a great looking book," said Jenny, closing it up with a little regret and handing it back to Kiki. "Awfully useful. And from what little I know about Mr. Phale? Seems like he might've given you the book so that you'd be more confident. He doesn't seem like the type to get mad easily. So how'd you clean up the avocado problem?"

Jenny reaches down and tugs a box filled with wrapped packages out from under her desk. "I almost forgot! What do I owe you for the deliveries?"

OOC: Is it devious if I tell you about it? :) If it conflicts, well, maybe we can figure something out anyway. *crosses fingers* And give me five minutes while I go and add gift notes to that post, since I forgot to copy it in. Eep! I hope that format works for you.

"Come to think of it, the avocados were the only time I've ever seen - " Kiki's voice catches. She had been about to say upset but that was not at all true, now. "- annoyed. He helped me get rid of them all, incinerated several while I spent hours transforming them into holly - as that is what they were supposed to be in the first place. It was pretty exhausting. He generally doesn't mind me practicing in his shop; I work for him," Kiki explains. "In truth, Mr. Aziraphale is my best friend here."

Kiki looks at the packages. "Let's see... looks like several books..." she muses, guessing at their weight. "For everything altogether that should be about $27.00."

[ooc: Sure, it's just being honestly devious. ;-) Is it all the ones on that list except for Mac and Eighth?]

Wow. She was really broken up about those avocados. "If no one was hurt, I'm sure everything ended up okay," says Jenny soothingly. "And, hey, at least you learned how to turn them into holly, right? So it was good practice for you."

"Sounds like you've got a good friend," says Jenny. "Someone who's interested in you and your life. Which, gotta say? Pretty much always a good thing."

"Gotta be more than that," says Jenny. "You sure?"


{{OOC: I think that's an oxymoron. :) Yes, it is! I actually realized I'd forgotten to list off the students who'd finished out Jenny's class, so that might up Kiki's price. If so, that's fine.}}

"No, it really was just a pretty comedic series of events," Kiki says, "Although at the time? More or less an unmitigated disaster." Kiki gives herself a mental shake. She's not about to go all maudlin on a client! She was a professional!

Kiki skims the list of students to get glowing snowmen. That would alter the price a little, she mused. "$33.00," she says finally, then pauses. "You know, I've never had anyone bargain me up before."

[For the delivery, do you mind if I just link all the relevant people to your post?]

"Funny in retrospect is always better," agrees Jenny vehemently, thinking of a few of the incidents in Sunnydale.

Jenny shrugs, bemused. "Hey, it's the holidays," she says. "You deserve fair pay for running all over heck, don't you?" She pulls $40.00 out of her wallet and hands it over to Kiki. "And buy yourself some coffee or something with the change, okay? Think of it as a Solstice present from someone who's glad you did the work instead."

OOC: That's perfectly fine with me!

"Wow, thank you!" Kiki says eagerly. "I'll get these done right away!"

[romanywitch]

"Great!" exclaims Jenny. "Thanks a bunch, Kiki. You're a very big help. Now? I have a chance of getting my grades in on time."

"Good luck with those," Kiki answers. "Have a good day, Ms. Calendar, and I'm sure I'll see you soon."
