Are you nervous about what's happening at the moment?

Not really, I spent a lot of my life without magic. Learning theory over practical applications for longer than I've used it. I'm worried about Shope though... It's been having a hard time with these surges.

What does your go to cologne/perfume smell like?

I'm currently in my baked goods era. Vanilla bean and brown sugar with lemon notes are present in my current scent.

What do you want most in life?

I want to finish my parent's work. They were once in lifetime talents in their field and one mistake cost them their lives. I want to finish what they started so they could finally be at peace.

If you could only listen to one song for the rest of your life (or death) what would it be and why?

[dxrkheartedoxe]

What do you like in a person?

Honesty is something that I like in a person. Accountability and a good sense of humor. Laughter is the best medicine.

Have you ever been in love?

No, but I'd like to be. It looks warm.

have you ever been fired from a job?

I've never worked for anyone else. That leaves a paper trail. And in my youth, I didn't want to be found.

Unfortunately, it's not as easy as that. The shop has been out of sorts for the last few weeks and keeps making things disappear. I'm missing three coffee cups, a landline phone, and two pairs of shoes, one of which is not mine. That's why we'll be closed for the week.

I am too organized to misplace something as important as a manifest. But hypothetically, if I were capable of misplacing it, I would check underneath any other paperwork.

What’s your favorite song as of this moment

Its on repeat in the store while I reorginize everything.

The shop will be closed this week. I can't find the manifest for its inventory; it keeps moving. Not to mention the power surges. Any order pick-up will have to wait until next week.
