4th Magic Bullet

[Action; 2237 Stevens Road]

[Today after school, Yuna can be found planted squarely in front of the television set, impatiently flipping through the handful of channels available in Mayfield and apparently getting more and more frutsrated by the minute.  Finally, she flops backward onto the carpet, giving an exasperated yell.]

Geez!  What's with this stupid thing, anyway?

[Phone; unfiltered]

Doesn't this town get any home shopping network channels?  Did those even exist in America in the 1950s?  How am I supposed to order skin cream and energy drinks?

[There's the noise of some shuffling papers over the line.]

What about these mail order catalogues that keep showing up in the mail?  Can you actually send away for things, or is it impossible to send letters out of town like how you can't make a phone call out?  What happens if you try?

[Action; outside the Post Office]

[Yuna's standing outside the Post Office holding a letter addressed to somewhere in Japan as she counts through a handful of spare change.]

I wonder how much postage is to Japan...

[oh sup, weird girl. passing by the post office when he spots her]

I doubt it'll get that far. Or anywhere really for that matter, y'know.

No harm in trying, though, right?

[identity profile] scentofbauhinia.livejournal.com 2011-04-14 08:54 pm (UTC)(link)
I guess. Kind of have to wonder if anybody's bothered before actually.

[Daddy's home from work.]

What is wrong, Yuna?

[identity profile] gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com 2011-04-14 11:14 pm (UTC)(link)
There's no home shopping channel!

[Dramatically flailing her arms and rolling back and forth while lying on the floor.]

[identity profile] gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com 2011-04-14 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, I guess I'll find out in a few weeks, huh?

[identity profile] lunawolves10th.livejournal.com 2011-04-15 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
I see. Well... there... there.

[he puts a hand on her shoulder and tries to comfort her. He is trying so hard.]

Perhaps I can buy whatever you like for you, the next time we go to the store?

Hm, hm. An excellent point. To maintain an image is an important matter . . .

I doubt your plan will succeed, though.

Skin creams? I can sell you those.

[Yuna sits up, hands on her knees and laughing a little.]

It's okay, you don't really have to. I just miss calling in and sending away for stuff. I guess I used to be kind of addicted to those sorts of shows back home.

[identity profile] gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com 2011-04-15 11:04 am (UTC)(link)
Can't hurt to try, though, don't you think?

[identity profile] gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com 2011-04-15 11:04 am (UTC)(link)
Really? What brands do you have?
tomatatas: (Default)

[personal profile] tomatatas 2011-04-15 11:46 am (UTC)(link)
American? [Yeah she only remember's European ones, oops...]

[identity profile] gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com 2011-04-15 11:52 am (UTC)(link)
Hmmm... probably no Nuru Nuru X, then, huh.
tomatatas: (Default)

[personal profile] tomatatas 2011-04-15 11:54 am (UTC)(link)
I've never heard of it... so that's likely a no, si.

...But you could always try one of these brands?

[identity profile] gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com 2011-04-15 11:57 am (UTC)(link)
Can I order it over the phone?
tomatatas: (Default)

[personal profile] tomatatas 2011-04-15 12:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Si, si. Just let me get a piece of paper and a pen... [Drifts off, rummaging around for a few seconds] Okay!

[identity profile] gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com 2011-04-15 12:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay! I need some kind of cream or gel or something to make my skin really soft and shiny, one of those bath caps that you can fill with water and leave on overnight, aaaaaand let's see... oh! One of those hair removal things that vibrates the hair out of your skin!
tomatatas: (Default)

[personal profile] tomatatas 2011-04-15 12:37 pm (UTC)(link)
... I don't have the hair removal... thing. But I have plenty of cream and caps...

[identity profile] gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com 2011-04-15 12:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay, I'll take some of those, then.
tomatatas: (Lovi | I need better keywords)

[personal profile] tomatatas 2011-04-15 12:42 pm (UTC)(link)
When would you like them by?

[identity profile] gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com 2011-04-15 12:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Can I get them in time for prom?
tomatatas: (Default)

[personal profile] tomatatas 2011-04-15 12:47 pm (UTC)(link)
...When is that?

[identity profile] gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com 2011-04-15 12:47 pm (UTC)(link)
It's on the 29th. You really haven't heard about it yet?
tomatatas: (Lovi |)

[personal profile] tomatatas 2011-04-15 12:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Seborga... might have mentioned it, I don't know...

You'll want it at least a week before the 29th then...
