Second Life -- Welcome to Fairplay [Stage 1]

[cityship]

It had been the usual mission briefing, not that any of them remembered it. The crew knew they were gone and had no idea when they'd be back, and likely wouldn't attempt rescue for quite some time, especially with Stacy considering the mission "ongoing."

They had no idea when they'd be back, either, namely because they never remembered being on the ship in the first place.

It was home. It had always been home.

Welcome to Fairplay, Iowa, folks, happiest little town in the Midwest.

Oh well, it was worth a try. Jamie pocketed the change, then nodded. "I mentioned it to my father, and he doesn't think much of the idea, but I thought I'd see what other people think."

The rest of the cookie went back into the bag to be eaten later, and Jamie brushed the crumbs off of his hands. "Look, would you be willing to ask your folks and see if they'd like to do it? If I can show that at least one other place around here wants to do that, the others might be willing to listen to me.

Not that he had a lot of hope there, but that was worth a try as well.

"Of course I would!" She beamed. "If they like it, I can tell them to tell your father that they think it's a great idea. It'd be best for all of us, wouldn't it?"

Jamie hadn't considered that, but it's a good idea. His father might not think much about the concept right now, but he did have a grudging respect for most of the other store owners in the area. If he was in the right mood at the time, it might make a difference. "Hey! That's not a bad plan. And aye, you're right. The more business we can bring in, the better it'll be for all of us. Thanks, Nanoha."

"No problem! Tell your family I said 'hi,' okay?" The girl moved to quickly brush the cookie crumbs off the counter into a dustpan almost automatically.

"Aye, I will." Jamie glanced down at his watch, then blinked in surprise. Was it really that late? He hadn't realized how much time had passed since he came in. Funny how that happened when he wasn't worrying over things.

"Look, I'd best get back to the shop. I'll check back with ye in a few days to see what your parents think about the contest, then?"
