Growing Pains
May. 21st, 2016 11:39 pmSpike left this morning for the Crystal Empire, he'll be back tomorrow. Appleoosa will be lighting up the sky there tonight.
I knocked on the Carousel Boutique's door today to have tea with Rarity and talk a bit about Starlight Glimmer with her. Rarity is looking a little bit frazzled. After speaking with several contractors in Manehattan, those she was able to track down, Rarity has come to the conclusion that contractors are (a) in very short supply (b) have to be hired a year in advance and (c) very, very expensive.
Meanwhile her "Rarity For You" boutique is standing empty and boarded up. Rent is very expensive. It needs to be washed from ceiling to floor. All the big names in Manehattan are trotting out their fall lineups and Rarity has to have her dresses on display in time to be able to compete. That seems ridiculously early to me. It's not even summer yet.
The good news is that the existing floorplan will do and none of the fixtures are really that broken or unusable. She is considering just cleaning out the dust and cobwebs and going with the store space as is. But she needs help. She's almost finished her fall fashions line up and she's hired Coco Pommel as Sales Associate. I think that means boutique manager.
She just needs us to help her spruce the place up next week. So it looks like I'm organizing a trip to Manehattan.
