The 44th Song [Action]

[tangledintower]

[Business was busy tonight at the diner. Some big band was playing in town tonight, so that meant a lot of people were out and about, getting food.

Rapunzel's feet were beginning to hurt. Her regular states were getting fixed, since one of her wheels broke last week, so she was wearing the extra pair, and they were too big, so she was wobblier than normal, and was afraid of dropping her next order.

It takes all her willpower to drop the food off at the car without any problems, and the minute she gets back inside, she flops down on a nearby stool.]

Whewh...these skates are not the bee's knees...oh well. We've got another order for 2 burgers and a malt, by the way. I think I'm blistering...

[ooc: 50's waitress rollerskater Rapunzel!]

[Charlie's skating past with an order, humming along to whatever song is playing. She slows to a stop near Rapunzel, one hand going to her hip.] Don't tell me your skates still ain't fixed yet.

[Rapunzel nods and sighs.]


I dunno what's taking them so long, they're just skates...I'm gonna break my ankle if I have to keep working in these, though!

I'll give you my old pair. [She takes very good care of her skates, Rapunzel.] Remind me before I leave, okay? I don't want you injured because then that means I gotta take your shift on top of mine. [She's teasing. It's what she does.]

[Rapunzel grins and nods at Charlie.]

Thanks, Charlie. I really appreciate that...my mother would kill me if I lost this job, anyway, and I think breaking my ankle counts as losing my job.

[Charlie just rolls her eyes ever so slightly before skating over to help with whatever Rapunzel is carrying.] C'mon. Let's get this done and go to The Clocks concert and we can forget about your mother for a bit. Just enjoy the last of the Summer weather and be silly and carefree for a few hours.

Oooh, I'm dying to see the concert.

[She grins and stands up, wobbly.]

Put your feet a little further apart. Just an inch. And for the love of God, bend your knees more, Rapunzel!

[All this said with love, of course.]

I'm trying, I'm trying! The skates are too big!

[Charlie sighs, noticing one of the other girls is just leaving. She looks about Rapunzels size so Charlie skates over and after a brief conversation, skates back inside. She pauses long enough in the door to say something.] C'mon. I got some skates for you to use till I get you my old ones.

Thanks, Charlie...you're the best.
