intofireforever[This time, Laura is in the kitchen. It's long after the dinner shift has cleaned up and left for the day. How did she get in there, you ask? Well, she has a key now!]
For those who don't remember me from my introduction last week, I'm Laura Palmer. Mr. Hoffman was kind enough to give me his shift in the kitchen when he switched to inventory management, so from now on, I'll be running breakfast! I worked the dinner shift under Paddy while I was an inmate, and I have extensive food service experience back in my world, so I'm fully prepared for duty.
Right!
[She claps her hands together once, looking pumped.]
Mr. Hoffman was very thorough in his rundown, but I like to double-check these things myself. If anyone has special dietary needs, like religious restrictions, or vegetarianism, or food allergies to be avoided, or anything like that: tell me now! I'll make sure to accommodate everyone who needs it.
[She gives the camera a more knowing look.]
This does not extend to ridiculously fussy eaters who like to be difficult and request bizarre specialties nobody else would eat.
[She smiles again.]
Inmates working the breakfast shift with me, sound off, please! Let's get to know each other and ensure a pleasant working environment.

Are you saying that people in your world go around with everything but their hands exposed for people to see?

Date: 2012-10-14 10:05 am (UTC)Oh, no. I'm saying that you'd wear gloves like you'd wear pants. You're naked if you don't have them on. Like, get arrested in public without them type of stuff.

Date: 2012-10-14 10:08 am (UTC)That's pretty weird. Are hands sexualized where you're from, or is there a different reason?

Date: 2012-10-14 10:10 am (UTC)Um, I guess? That and the whole magic thing. That you have to use your hands to do it, so you gotta cover your hands.

Date: 2012-10-14 10:33 am (UTC)That's...really hard to say. It's not something that's supposed to exist. I don't understand it very well, or know all the things it can do. I might have done some in the past, but I don't think I can ever be sure.
[She has no idea whether all the supernatural things she'd managed to do in her world were a result of her own, bred-in psychic abilities, or if some of it was inadvertent magic. In Twin Peaks, one is nearly as likely as the other.]
I just know that my town either draws, generates or facilitates it--maybe even all three--and that you don't need your hands to be bare for it. You might not even need hands at all.
[MIKE only has one arm and he's pretty damn skilled.]

Date: 2012-10-14 10:38 am (UTC)No, thank you. I have enough weird stuff to deal with as it is. Besides, even if I wanted to, I wouldn't know how to practice. I don't know how magic works, and if I've ever done any, it was accidental and I wasn't aware of it at the time.
