video; un egyptologist - evening of 19 October

[egyptologist]

[ Oh hello, it's your friendly neighborhood egyptologist slash mummy hunter tuning in. Evelyn's hair is windswept and framing her face, cheeks pink from what is prooobably either whiskey or wine. She's tired of visions and migraines and soul crushing loneliness and has thrown herself into re-establishing her shop.

She's sat at one of the little tables in the back by the fireplace, the culprit of her pink cheeked, rosy glow sat on the table next to her. She's got her little device propped up against a book to properly frame her. ]

Hello, fellow residents. I just wanted to let you know that my bookshop, Spellbound Book Co., is open once more. By all means, please come in any time, have a look around.

[ She leans back in her chair, a little roughly, picks up her tumbler - the question is answered, it's whatever passes for whiskey - and smiles. ]

Who else has a business here? Let's all discuss our business endeavors, feel free to chat amongst yourselves.

[ Is she drunk? Maybe a little. ]

Beer and wine, but I'm more than happy to pour a glass of whiskey for a friendly face.

[ :D? ]

[manipulative]

I could go for a whiskey. [ she smiles. scrunching up her face, katherine teases, ] Do you think it would be too responsible if I brought something edible to go with it?

[ she doesn't want to ruin the vibe too much. ]

[egyptologist]

[ That pulls a smile out of Evelyn in kind. ]

That is fairly responsible, but I supposed we can let it slide this time.

[manipulative]

[ katherine feigns mulling that over as if it's one of the hardest decisions she will ever make. ]

You won't tell anyone, will you? I have a reputation for being very sensible to upkeep.

[egyptologist]

[ It's a very important one! ]

The secret stays with me. Scouts honor.

[manipulative]

Well, if it's going to be a Scout's honour…

[ that's a very big honour, e! ]

As far as my partner's concerned, this is a business meeting of very important business.

[egyptologist]

[ VERY big. She heard it on the network somewhere. ]

Perfect. The door will be open for you. [ wink! ]
