"Shut up, Destiny."
Destiny looked up, "Oh come on, Gabby-"
"Gabrielle."
"-It's just a joke."
"I don't need jokes like that. Now, are you going in or not?"
"Yeah, fine, fine." Destiny muttered, wandering into the shop. Gabrielle sighed and followed her.
"Don't know why Erin didn't take you," she sighed, "I thought she'd take you off my hands once she came back."
"Don't ask me. I thought she would too," Destiny mumbled, "But she's barely around now. Anyways, I should just get browsing."
"You do that. I'll be over by the Vampire fiction, call me if you need anything, okay?"
"'Kay. " Destiny said, going over to the sci-fi.

Carter dropped from the sky, his expression mild. He had just returned to this time stream. He lands outside the book shop, aiming to look at the history section, looking for he had missed. He knew what had happened, and he also knew that he needed to catch up on things, see what had happened in his absence...
Add to this that he was looking for some place to rest, he was not sure if his place was still around, and he had not had a bite sice before the time travel. Luckily he had lots of experience with prolonging his feeding.

Destiny set to work browsing. She did that in her own little way which mostly involved flicking through the books then tossing them over her shoulder then realising what she'd just done and retrieving them. The whole process ended up taking a long time but eventually she had a small pile of books.
She beavered around the shop, clutching her books and trying to find someone to sit at the till and take for her books. Actual employment at the shop was of course totally optional.
She walked outside and tapped Carter on the shoulder, or as near as someone under five feet can to someone anywhere near normal-sized. "Hey, can you take for these books?"

*Wha-?*
Carters thought could be heard by anyone close enough, allmost as though he were talking. But that he had not been, he was a telepath. He looks at the girl, tilting his head to one side. "Ummm, I'm not sure if I can actually. I neither work here nor know anything about this sort of thing." he says, his eyes seeming to start to change colour, gaining a pinkish hue as he speaks to the girl...

"Well, I'm sure you could figure it out," she said, grabbing him by the hand dragging him inside, pushing him behind the counter. "You press a button and thens can the things and they make a sparkly noise then press another button and it goes 'ding!' and I pay you and you give me my change." she said confidently, if somewhat vaguely. "If I were you I'd just press everything and see what happens."

Carters eyes continue to change colour, the pinkish hue gaining dominance, and thend darkening. Being in this close of a proximity to others was not a good thing at the moment, but he would deal with it. He looks down at the counter, then back at the girl. *If you know how to do this on your own might I ask why you need someone else's help..?* he asks directly into the girls mind, not even realizing that he was not speaking.

"Because," she said in a voice like she was talking to an idiot, "I'm a customer. You're not so you gotta do it. And what;'s with your eyes? They're going all weird. Have you got an illness? Are you sick? Is it catching? I don't really want or need anything else with what I've already got, so tell me so I take a bath. Is it AIDS? Have you got AIDS? It's AIDS, isn't it? You got AIDS! You're going to die! Try scan the books first though, willya?"
