Jeremy would move towards the back room, and turned to Laura as he did, "You are always welcome to join Diane and me for evening tea Laura," he said, with a slight chuckle. "Like Angelina, I'm not sure my wife feels accomplished unless she's made tea for more than half a dozen people a day."
Once behind the curtain, he moved towards the furthest available seat, removing his jacket and placing it over the backrest before sitting.

"Bet she drinks it all herself..." Laura muttered quietly, smiling a little thoguh, Angelina putting the kettle on and gesturing for Johnathan to sit.

Taking a seat, Johnathan tried to hold his thoughts inside, especially as the little totem was moving again.... Why did I make a totem that reacts to things that worry me. First Lycans and now this.... I'd hate to see what one of these things did for a REALLY paranoid user, though the anxiety demon inside would love it....

Angelina didn't sit for nw, bustling around, filling up the kettle, putting it on, finding three cups that were to her liking and starting to fiddle with her tea caddies, not saying anything to either man for now.

There'd be the sound of the door bursting open, quickly being shut again. The soaked woman was back, arms wide across the door as she panted. Okay, so she looked like a mad woman. She didn't rightly care at the moment. Though Laura might as the woman's eyes zeroed in on the counter. Sure, Darlah might take offense for someone saying it, but she'd do an immitation of some sea mamal as she dove, slidding over the top of the counter and quickly hidding under the counter top. Looking up to Laura, she put her a single finger over her lips before giving her those big blue puppy eyes, begging for her to stay silent for the moment, just until it was safe.

Laura looked down at her, one eyebrow raised before letting out a sigh, one hand going under the counter and pulling out a black velvet bag, untying it and pouring some fine looking dust onto the counter, starting to trace patterns in it with one finger, muttering under her breath.

Johnathan sat bolt upright. Something in his pocket was wriggling around again, and it wasn't his hip pocket either....

Darlah looked rather relieved asshe hid there, trying her best to remain as quiet as possible. Of course, as nervous as she seemed to be, it wouldn't be too far off the mark to assume that there was a bit of sweat mixed in with the beads of rainwater that covered her entire form. And just who knew how long she'd stay in that spot, too!

Laura looked up at the door, then back down at Darlah, then back at the door. "Ya know, if ya wanna shelter from the rain you could just hang out in the shop for a bit... I got glitter all over the counter now."

Jeremy looked over at Johnathan as he started, and sighed, shaking his head slowly. "You really should learn to calm down Mr. Spencer, it doesn't bo a man's heart any good to be constantly on edge like that, now sit down and drink your tea... when it's made of course."
As he said that, he trned his gaze to Angelina whilst his lips curled upward into a smile.

Johnathan grabbed a hold of his briefcase, making sure it was settled comfortably in his lap with the latches facing towards him. "I imagine not Jeremy... So what blend will we be having today then?" he ventured, trying to make light conversation.

Angie grumbled something softly about how they had caught her by surprise once and this was the only time she would ever be fallible thank you very much, opening a couple of the many unlabelled tea caddies.

"It isn't the rain, Miss." Slowly, she scooted from under the counter and slowly peeked over the edge. So far so good. She inched out a liiiittttle more to peek around. "I keep seeing strange things. Weird things. I think that canid might've been rabid. I'm going nuts with all of these shadowy thing-a-ma-jigs com-" She froze mid sentence, stareing at the door. Not that anyone could be seen except for the occasional passer-by and the heavy rain. Perhaps the woman was right. Maybe she was going insane. Granted, it wasn't far from her to really believe in ghosts and spooks and spirits, but it was beyond her to think she was actually seeing any. Then again, who knew. Lots of things were unexplained. And for some strange reason, she kept seeing a shadow lurking about the outside of the store. The poor old couple she passed by probably almost had a heart attack when she turned around and screamed in their faces before running into the store.

"Lady...? I think you going nuts... But you ain't rabid... Although I could throw a glass of water at you to check," she said with a wide smile, glancing back at the door and leaning forward so she was level with the counter, blowing off the 'glitter' the shadowy form by the door flickering for a few moments then fading from view.

Darlah blinked, seeing the glitter go flying.... and the shadow fading away. "I think the rain would do the same thing, wouldn't it?" Sitting on the floor, she rubbed her forehead. "Okay. It's just stress. Juuuust stress." She'd then give a nervous chuckle and look up to Laura. "I'm really sorry, Ma'am."

"It's cool, betcha Angie's been fillin' ya head with the whole 'People are very superstitious around here' thing. Do you want top know how much profit we make on the protective amulets she sells?" Laura said with a smile. "No one's that superstitious."

Jeremy's gaze flicked back to Johnathan for a moment, as he simply nodded briefly, before he wordlessly turned back to Angelina.
As she muttered to herself he let out a very slight chuckle, "My, Angelina... I wasn't aware it was possible to catch you by surprise, besides, you've made enough tea for me to know what it is I enjoy, right?"

Darlah frowned a bit. "Well.... I'm a touch superstitious myself, but not over what she was talking about. Werewolves and vampires and such. I didn't realize it was that bad...."
She shook her head, quietly jumping going around the counter. "Well, honestly? Not a thing I only moved here because a friend left me their house in their will."

At the tea table, Johnathan felt most uneasy. Being trapped with a Mindreader and a council member was not his idea of fun. After removing his worry doll from his coat and putting it into his briefcase (taking c,are Jeremy should not see what was in there!) he began to check the sigils on his newest bullet, still in his jacket pocket after blessing it in the church font down the street. A small smile of satisfaction turned up the corners of his mouth. "Do not call up that which you cannot put down" He had only gotten this good at his art by being careful what he summoned and knowing far more of banishing to boot. This bullet was just another proof of his skill. He just wished others would understand....
