Coombs & Co. [OPEN]
Working multiple jobs is rather difficult, but nothing that Riley isn't used to. Since inheriting Knights of the Round Pie and beginning the renovations to transform the place into a museum, Riley's miraculously also kept up with her job at Coombs & Co. She credits Lily Middleton almost completely for being able to balance the two, since the sharp business woman/socialite has taken a recent interest in managing the museum project (probably due to the fact Lily is currently not speaking to her son and looking for something to work on to pass her days).
And with Valentine's Day around the corner, every February, Coombs & Co. announces some of the biggest discounts of the year on their merchandise. On top of their regular potions and remedies, they offer cute, fun, and safe magical items revolving around love and friendship specially made for the holiday. For the past week, Riley has worked late in the evenings preparing these items and organizing the shelves. She even decorated the shop's front window to draw customers in. Really, she's gone a tad overboard, but Valentine's Day is a fun holiday and there's a bit of a humbug sister at home harshing Riley's mellow.
After lunch, she flips the closed sign over to open and unlocks the shop's door before taking a seat at the counter where she has packaging supplies laid out. Today, she's the only one in the shop, but Riley doesn't mind. The quiet means she'll get a lot done today. Placing a bar of "love" soap on a sheet of paper, she begins her task of wrapping the products one-by-one, humming a song to herself as she waits for a customer.
ooc: feel free to visit Riley at Coombs & Co or come by to buy some stuff & thangs (4 ur lovah~)

Lara's eyes sparkled. She loved being a guinea pig for Val and Rileys experiments. "It did. And I am always feeling experimental, you know that." She leaned over the counter a little. "The mango was lovely. Can we have some of that?"

"You're a witchy genius." Lara said, picking up a bottle and taking the top off to sniff it. "So are you set for the Valentines rush?"

"I think so. Much more prepared than last year. And since Moira decided to advertise the big sales, I'm confident we'll get a good turnout." She glances up from her work and smiles. "How are things in your world?"

"You know my world...People people people twenty four seven. Honestly, I'm tempted to just go on a deep dive and hide at the bottom of the sea for a month." Lara said, rolling her eyes before she settled to watch Riley work, fascinated. "At least my business is a little more direct. Guys and girls asking for what they want. Are we taking bets on how many kids come in asking for something but really looking for love potions?" She asked, winking.
