Bethwyn's
A place to chill out and appreciate music
Bethwyn's
is a small store that sells records (CD's) that can be played in CD players or personal music players. These can be purchased at the store for G. CDs are sold for 20G each (but aren't deducted from your RPG money) however CD Players (stereo) and Personal Music Players ('Perio's) cost 100G and 200G respectively and this cost will be deducted from your RP money.
CDs are found to the left of the store in alphabetical order. There are four categories: classical, rock, country, alternative. The alternative section is quite general and contains any CDs that do not fit into the other three categories. Feel free to browse or order in anything you can't find.
Facing the door is a lounge section of the store. There are four sofas (two mint green and two light pink) arranged facing each other in a circle/square shape. In the middle of the sofas there is a large table with some magazines that feature music articles. Behind the sofa square there are three coffee tables that are round and have three chairs around each.
To the right of the door is a small glass counter - inside containing display models of the stereos and the Perios. You can make a booking for a sofa or table if you must but usually it's a casual free for all first come first serve. At the counter you can order drinks (soft drinks various, hot drinks various) and also snack foods (small bags of chips assorted, chocolate bars assorted, lollipops, ice-creams assorted) for a small price (non-deductable), as well as pay for CDs or Music Players. Also place orders for CDs at the counter.
When you walk into the store the lighting is dim - the walls are painted a rich chocolate brown and this adds to the general ambiance. The place isn't musty or dirty - in fact it smells faintly of lemon and coffee. The lights hang from the ceiling to cast a yellowish glow on everything and are far spaced. The store has a cosy feel to it and people are welcome to hang out. It is open at odd hours as Bethwyn lives upstairs but if she is home or awake she will be in the store front. There is a stereo with speakers hooked up all around the store and chill out music plays. It is soothing and non-descript. This irritates some people as it reminds them of lift music. However, this music is not lift music - it is ambiance music.
Currently Bethwyn isn't high enough rank to employ people so please if you ask for a job know that you will be rejected.

Bethwyn was excited that today would be the first day for her store to be open. This had always been her passion since a young age - retail sales and music. And now, she could do something that related to both these things. She had spent a good few weeks organising the CDs and other items to be shipped out to Peridot County as well as all the furniture. She hoped she had done a good job with the layout so that people felt comfortable hanging out and browsing CDs.
She unlocked the door and flipped the sign to open. Her eyes adjusted to the dim lighting and she turned on the stereo to play the familiar track from her favourite store back home. She sat down on one of the light green sofas and began to thumb through one of her magazines.

Moving in for Byron had went quite nicely and after being out of town for a good while he had finally settled down in Peridot. However as he did not like being home all day he decided that it was time to take a tour around town and the Marketplace in particular.
The first place he ran into seemed to be called Bethwyn's. Looking through the window it seemed to be a Music Store so he decided to go in. At a quick glance the store seemed to contain more than just CD's but he could check out that later. He went through the different rows of CD's until he came to the Rock Section and started to individually browse the disk alphabetically.

Bethwyn looked up from her magazine when she heard the door slowly open, the wind blowing softly from outside which made the overhanging lamps move slightly. She was excited - this would be her first customer maybe! Closing her magazine quietly she watched as the young man walked over to the CDs with a look around the room and then headed to the rock section.
He seemed familiar but she could not really place his face.
Maybe from the inn...
as she thought it suddenly occured to her that this was most probably the guy playing the guitar at the inn. She smiled and walked over not wanting to disturb or hover, but stopped just short of the CDs and watched quietly.

Deciding to take a walk around town, Luc happened upon what appeared to be a new store of some sort. Walking inside, it seemed to be a bit of a music store, yet also offered a place to sit, as well as a place to purchase snacks. Luc nodded as he looked around. He liked the feel of the place a lot, though he had no real desire to purchase any music today. Walking over to one of the sofas, Luc sat down. He picked up a magazine from the coffee table and began to read a bit.

Bethwyn heard the door open again! She was really happy that people had noticed her store. On the outside the building wasn't exactly new and so she had taken a lot of effort on the inner appearance of the store rather than the outer appearance. She watched as the man looked around and then sat on one of the sofas.
Turning back to the first young man, she came to the conclusion that he was happy browsing. Walking over to the man on the sofa she said cheerfully, "Hi can I get you anything?"

While reading the magazine, Luc heard someone approach him. Looking up, Luc saw a young lady come up to him ask if he needed anything. An employee perhaps? Possibly the owner, but she looked quite young to be owning a store. "Actually, now that you mention it, I could sure use a pillow." Luc grinned at the girl, eager to see her reaction.

Bethwyn looked puzzled. "A pillow?" She looked around at the other sofas. Now that he mentioned it, they did look a bit bare. The sofas were quite comfy on their own but with pillows... "That's a brilliant idea!" she said happily. "Next time you come in there will be pillows. I'll have to go out and get some." She wondered already what colours would look good with the green and pink she had already chosen. Probably an off white or cream colour.

To Luc's surprise and somewhat horror, the girl didn't seemed phased at all by his odd request. In fact, she commended him on such a great idea and promised to have pillows the next time that he came in. Course now he couldn't think of a witty response, so he decided to start up a conversation instead, dull as it may be. "So by your reaction, I assume that you are the owner of this store? Or are you a shop-a-holic employee that will use any excuse to buy things?"

The young man asked if Bethwyn was the owner of the store of if she was a worker. She laughed at his phrasing - somehow she couldn't remember the last time she laughed. "Well, I've just opened the place yesterday so yes, I'm the owner. I know I'm a bit young but I've got a lot of experience in retail and music..." She smiled. "Although I do admit to having a healthy shopping appetite." She laughed again, and sat on the sofa directly left of him so she could still talk to him without having a lot of space between them. If she had sat opposite the huge expanse of the table would have gotten in the way.
As she was sitting a little closer she realised he looked familiar too.

"Owner of a record store then? Quite a feat for someone your age." After the girl sat down, Luc was able to get a better look at her. Why in the world did she look so familiar to him? Thinking back a bit, Luc tried to remember who all he had met in this village so far. There was the bubbly Felicity, the sweet Fania, the quiet Shay...but who else? Was it someone at the Inn? When the girl laughed, her face lit up. It was then that something popped into Luc's mind. "Wait a minute..." Luc's eyes grew big a moment. Standing up, Luc the pointed at the young lady. "Now I remember! You're that dancing girl from the inn, aren't you? I never did catch your name, but I know it's you." Snapping his fingers, Luc nodded just then. "I knew you looked familiar."

Bethwyn nodded. "Well, I don't know what else to do with my life yet and going to university... it seems like I am not old enough or ready. So for now this is what I have decided to do with myself. Luckily I didn't have much trouble pulling the funds together - shops are cheap here and a lot of the inventory I just got shipped from back home." She realised she was probably rambling. "Although, probably none of that interests you... sorry to ramble."
Suddenly the man stood and pointed at her, mentioning that they knew each other from somewhere. "The inn?" she was puzzled and shocked at the same time by such a blatant and blunt reaction. "Wait, you're that guy that walked in on me!" she blushed heavily. That day she had been unpacking her things and dancing around singing and he had walked in on her. She hadn't caught his name either...

The girl blushed heavily, once Luc reminded her how they had first met. Laughing, Luc sat back down with a thump onto the sofa. "I can't believe its you. I haven't seen you since that day we first met." Leaning forward to get close to the girl, Luc smiled just then. "Ok you gotta end the suspense now, before I go nuts. What's your name?"

"My name...?" she echoed, as he asked her what her name was and sat down again. She grinned then - well, it was obvious you see to her. The store was called Bethwyn's and that was her name after all. "Well, it's Bethwyn. Like the store name." She agreed though, "It has been a while though at least half a season or more! I wonder why we haven't run into each other sooner?"

"Ah so like the name of the store then. Figured you named it after your cat or something." Shrugging, Luc sat back once more. "Bethwyn..hmm. Why do I have a feeling I'm going to forget that?" Shaking his head, Luc then wondered the same thing Bethwyn did. "Not sure why we haven't ran into each other since that day to be honest. But it appears that we've both been busy. What have you been up to, besides working on this store? Meet any other people? Listen to any good music? Learn any new dances?" Luc winked at Bethwyn, after he asked the last question.
