Day 56: Bill's Hardware (Morning)

May 03, 2011 15:00

While speaking with Peter had been amusing at first, it hadn't taken long for their conversation to go down dark paths. It wasn't really the kid's fault, though, and so Harvey ended up just dismissing himself as quickly as he could once the bus arrived in town. It was impossible not to notice the snow, but he wasn't very interested in it, even as ( Read more... )

[from here; Oh... Hello Harvey 8)]

Apparently, reflex overrode ill feelings in the end. Out of habit, Klavier gave a small smile at any employees who may have turned to look as he entered the store. It was such a normal thing to do, which just made it feel that much more abnormal in the given situation. But who was he to complain? He could really use a nice dose of "normal" right about now ( ... )

Harvey had automatically moved to the part of the store that had the axes, trying to recreate what he'd seen from his memory of the time that he'd been here. Everything looked different during the day, but wasn't that how it always went? It was hard to imagine that he'd once been in this place while full of panic because some undead creature was after him.

Worse still was the thought that the attacker might be the very man at the counter who was now watching him warily. He might have even sent the guy a glare (wasn't he allowed to window shop?) if he hadn't been distracted in the next second.

Being called "Herr Dent" was still something he had to get used to, but as Harvey turned toward Gavin, he realized that it was just one of the man's quirks. And honestly, anything was better than being called Harv, so he wasn't going to make a fuss about it. As strange as it was, he actually sort of got along with the weird prosecutor-slash-musician ( ... )

He'd followed Dent's gaze toward the tools hanging on the wall, briefly glancing over them with only moderate interest. Klavier hadn't been in here more than a minute and he could already tell he probably wasn't going to find much of interest. Not as far as tools went, anyhow. He wasn't experienced in using any of these things or crafty enough to think of projects that would require them. Besides, something told him a supposed mental patient trying to buy a hatchet or a hammer wouldn't go over particularly well.

"About the same thing, actually. I figured since they're setting us loose to enjoy this little shopping spree, we may as well take advantage and seek out something interesting, ja? ...And right now, it was either this or the spa." He was kidding. Maybe.

He shook his head slightly, still smiling like he was amused by the whole thing. But he glanced quickly at the man at the counter to see how closely they were being watched at the moment. "...Though it is interesting, isn't it? For people who are trying to come across as so ( ... )

Gavin's comment about the spa was delivered with a straight face, so for a moment Harvey did have to wonder. Granted, a massage didn't sound like the worst thing in the world. His muscles were all in knots and he was working through a lot of pain, though the thought of someone touching him and accidentally knocking against his arm or shoulder made him drop the idea before it had even fully formed ( ... )
