[1. Lithuania has just learned he has a job at the bakery. This is news to him, of course, but he ends up going anyway, so if you happen to be in the bakery today, you can see him bustling about, baking things or sorting things or attempting to do both at once. Most are Valentine's Day themed, since that was what he was told to make.

Also, he made free samples. Have some. They are delicious.]

[2. After that, there's more exploring to be done, in the interests of not resting until the day he can walk around town without getting hopelessly lost in the identical streets.

That day is not today, as he is rather lost. Maybe he should try to find a map...]

[3. [1333 Benny Street] And now back at sort-of-home Lithuania has decided the house needs cleaning. If you have some reason to be in the house, he is cleaning all the things.]

[Nina's munching down some of the samples, looking pretty cheerful! She almost starts to say something, realizes she can't talk with her mouth full and settles for a few meaningless gestures before she swallows.]

Did you make these? They're really good!

[vytis]

I did, thank you, miss. [smile!] I've only just started working here--well, they said I've been working here for years, but...

[Theta is out and about for her constitutional walk when she spots someone that looks a bit out of place. She's been in Mayfield long enough to know her way around well, and also to be able to spot out those who aren't drones who simply don't have clothes from home. She nods politely, leaning heavily on her cane as she limps along.]

Good day.

[Since anything is better than staying at home with that blockhead, guess who's at work today?

Envy is just sitting on top of the counter, watching the new kid scurrying around with a bored expression on her face.

Hey, whoever said she'd actually do something?]

What's your opinion on putting human meat into these things? [picks up a meat bun, waving it at him]

[vytis]

[Lithuania has pretty much gotten used to her sitting there, to the point he's almost forgotten she's there--until she speaks up, that is, and he looks up with the most startled expression.] Ehh? Y-you're kidding?

[vytis]

Hello. [smiling and nodding politely, and waiting a moment, uncertainly, before he speaks up] Ah, I'm sorry for bothering you, but do you know which street this is?

[envytheparfait.livejournal.com]

[Completely unmoved by the shocked expression. She had expected it, after all.] Why would I joke around about something like that?

[vytis]

Why would you seriously suggest it?

[She's not been to the bakery since before Christmas, and all thoughts of cakes were forgotten in the aftermath. She's attracted by all the red and pink.]

They look so adorable...

[envytheparfait.livejournal.com]

Because I want to see the look on people's faces, when I tell them they just eaten one of their own kind.

[vytis]

[Balancing three pans of cookies, possibly through some minor sorcery.] Thank you--Miss Hungary, hello.

[vytis]

[long silence]

...No, I don't think you should do that.

[muskatli.livejournal.com]

[Ducks into the bakery all too happily.]

Litvánia! You've made it here!

[vytis]

[setting down the pans] Yes, just recently. How have you been? [offers cookie!]

[envytheparfait.livejournal.com]

What do you think of sacrificing yourself for this particular cause?

[vytis]

[You know what, he's just going to go over here to the other end of the bakery to put away these cookies.]

I-I'd really rather not.

[envytheparfait.livejournal.com]

[oh, finally slips off of her seat, following after him] It'll be for a good deed.

[vytis]

[putting the pan down and trying to judge if he can clear the counter top from this angle out of the corner of his eye]

Not really.

[ergaleomancer.livejournal.com]

Mm? Oh...I don't recall. I know where I am relative to other points of interest, but not the street name. They're all identical...

Are you lost?

[vytis]

Maybe just a little. I'm trying to learn my way around...

[ergaleomancer.livejournal.com]

I have a map of the town, actually, if you'd like to come with me to my home and have a look at it. You're welcome to copy it.

[vytis]

[brightens at the mention of a map] Oh, you do? That would really be helpful, if I'm not imposing.

[ergaleomancer.livejournal.com]

Not at all. All I ask is that you return the favour if you find yourself with an interesting tidbit of knowledge about the town.

[muskatli.livejournal.com]

It's been the same. They can take a good woman down. [Her hair is much shorter, and she's in her military uniform, instead of a dress. She takes the cookie, nevertheless]

They've given you a good job. I hope it's not too stressful.

[vytis]

Certainly, miss. It would make getting around so much easier.
