ABBOTT ELEMENTARY Gregory Eddie and Caleb Hill -> 4x07 Winter Show
as sigrid heard a knock on her door , she suppressed a sigh. it was close to lunch and she had hoped that it would've remained uninterrupted. her frown , however , got instantly flipped upside - down as she saw her daughter , beautiful as always , come through the door. sigrid was immediately hit with the intense longing that was unanimous with signe's departure from their home. still , sigrid couldn't deny that her daughter was thriving. "ah , daughterly guilt. finally something you inherited from your mother." it was said lightly , but one couldn't deny the truth in the words. sigrid held out her arms and swept signe in for a long , warm hug. "how are you , my little grape ?"

Signe made her way up the familiar staircase of the humanities building with a to-go iced coffee in one hand and a wax paper bag in the other containing a cinnamon bun. A peace offering, if she was being honest with herself. Signe didn't visit her mother's office often, not because she didn't love visiting her mom, but because Sigrid Holmström was a consummate professional. The girl had always felt guilty about disrupting her mother's crisp, orderly and polished world at the university. Switching the coffee to her other hand, she knocked twice on the office door before opening it without waiting for a reply. “Professor Holmström,” Signe began, her voice full of playful formality. “I come bearing caffeine and carbs. And maybe a bit of daughterly guilt. You free for a little break?”
lian bounced into the book nook after her shift , ready to visit a friend and cause some mischief. she watched him talk to a customer , who nearly spooked the poor boy half to death , and navigate their questions with ease. lian was almost , almost , envious with how at home jasper looked in the space , between the tall shelves and thousands of unbroken spines. once jasper was finished she eagerly jumping on their friend where they were hiding behind the counter. "hi , pookie ! don't you sound proper ," they cooed , looking into the big doe eyes that always looked like they knew too much. "i almost considered buying the books you were talking about , just because of your sales skills."

it was a quiet day at the bookstore, with only the sighs of worn pages to keep jasper company, and so he softly hummed to himself as he sorted through the new arrivals. romance, mythological retellings, dusty vintage classics. piles towered over the timid boy that cast wobbling shadows over his features. the shuffle of company brought him from his trance. an elbow nudged the leaning tower of thrillers, and in a moment jasper’s arms were filled with cascading novellas threatening to spill. “hey ! sorry, one second … ” paperbacks were shrugged onto the counter with a limp plop. breathless, they attempted to fix a strand of unruly brunette which promptly pinged back into its clumsy position. the ends of their fingers were inky from refilling the receipt printer and they smeared a long black mark across their forehead. “are you looking for something particular today ? we have the right book for everybody.”
"she moved out recently ," she stated , as if that explained everything. "i just want to celebrate her achievements. she works so hard. she deserves it." a small smile played on her face and she nodded , pleased , as the young man rattles off a few titles. "she doesn't have dirt femme yet. i'll take that one."
“ for you daughter ? ” milo echoes back , recalling how his parents always brought home albums for him to spin from a young age onward . “ you're a good mom , ” well — maybe he was quick to assume , but that was beyond the point . “ we do have tove lo . we just go in a reissue of queen of the clouds but it looks like we also have … dirt femme & blue lips ? do any of those sound about right ? ”
who: lian & @amadoures where: coral cove park
ever since lian moved to coral cove , she'd taken to live her instagram worthy life. a quick morning run before stopping in the park to read a book. well , most days they skipped the run and got to the park by noon. but it was close. now that spring was aiming for summer it was just so peaceful to spend the weekends sitting in the sun. "hiya ," they greeted happily as a friend came into view. "do you wanna join me ? it's such a nice day."
sigrid hadn't planned on going inside the record store , but seeing the advertisements in the windows made her venture inside , aiming to find a gift for signe. her daughter had moved out recently and adjusting had been hard for all of them. still , sigrid was proud of her daughter for wanting to try to stand on her own two feet. it was quiet inside except for the music playing. as sigrid aimed for the pop section she was stopped in her tracks by the boy working there. "oh , i— i was looking for a gift for my daughter." it was always hard to start a conversation with someone new. "do you have anything with tove lo ?"
location: mango bay record store ! status: open , uncapped ! @palmviewstarters
after two weeks closed & radio silence , mango bay record store was opening its doors yet again . tanked reviews , a complete overhaul of staff , & milo was back to square one with things . at this point , liquidation might've been the better choice , but milo's stubbornness made it hard to say goodbye . after all , he made a commitment to be here at least for the foreseeable future . fleeing his problems yet again wouldn't work . would it ? a chime of bells from the front doors signaled the first customer of the day , sending milo into high alert . “ hey , welcome in . if you're here for the gossip , there is none . however , we do have the highly coveted record store day wicked vinyl — if that's more your flavor . "
sigrid looked up at the soft knocking , only to be met with vivi's smiling face poking through the door. there was no telling when the younger woman would pop up and sigrid had started to learn that she'd just have to roll with the punches. "luck would be on your side today ," sigrid allowed with a small sigh , closing her notebook and putting it to the side. for someone as used to their routines as sigrid , having vivienne come and disrupt them had been tough in the beginning. now it was ( sometimes ) welcome. at the mention of her daughter sigrid perked up. "i'll definitely bring this home with me. thank you for the gifts." sigrid put the gifts on her desk to wait for her as she got back. "so , where do you think we should go ?"
at palmview university with sigrid holmström … @ofelation
“ 𝐌𝐀𝐘 𝐈 𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐑 ? ” she asked , poking her head through the door after knocking a couple times . “ i'm here in 𝐇𝐎𝐏𝐄𝐒 that you have no lectures for a while so we can perhaps grab lunch . plus , i come bearing gifts . ” it really helped that the university was 𝐍𝐎𝐓 𝐒𝐎 𝐅𝐀𝐑 from her restaurant , made it possible for vivi to pop up like that . “ your daughter likes chocolate , doesn't she ? or am i 𝐌𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐊𝐄𝐍 ? ah , either way i have a box of the best ones you'll ever have . if there is 𝐎𝐍𝐄 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐆 the monegasque know how to do , it is chocolate . life - changing how 𝐃𝐄𝐋𝐈𝐂𝐈𝐎𝐔𝐒 these are . also some wine for your date nights . ”
seeing her daughter was always a welcome sight and sigrid immediately put down her brush. sure , it had only been a few weeks since she moved out , but sigrid missed her laughter and sparkling eyes more than she would ever miss anyone. "tack , skruttis ," she replied , feeling warm at her daughter's love. the nickname was old , born when she was still a grape in her belly. "i know art is subjective , but if i hear you say anything like that and not refer to monet or renoir we will have words." she couldn't help but smile , reaching out to hold signe's hand. "how have you been , sweetheart. ?" a teasing glint appeared in her eyes. "talking to anyone special lately ?"
Signe had come up behind her mother, recognizing the woman was in the middle of a painting session and waited to be acknowledged. When her mother spoke, Signe chuckled. “You say rusty as if that’s not one of the most stunning paintings I’ve ever seen,” she teased, tilting her head to observe the landscape that she had been working on. “It’s really good, Mamma.” And it was good to see her mother allowing herself the small pleasures of being creative. While Sigrid Holmström was extremely analytical, she was also an intensely creative soul and Signe had credited her mother more than once for her own artistic streak.
whenever agnes felt in need of a pick - me - up , they knew where to turn. it wasn't the closest café to where they lived , but the reasons for their visits became clear the moment agnes stepped through the doors. "pais , you're here." agnes skipped up , cheerful demeanor not fitting with the rest of their appearance. "blonde roast ? querida , i thought you knew my order by now." they leaned against the counter in an overly exaggerated pose. it was always fun to tease paisley whenever they could , and always enjoyed watching the look on her face when they did. "iced americano , as always." they peered at paisley while she worked on their order. "you doing okay , babes ? i feel like i haven't seen you in forever."

it was a few hours into her shift and already paisley's apron was covered in chocolate smears, whipped cream and the crumbs of cinnamon rolls. she wondered why being a barista wasn't considered an emergency service, grinding beans and pouring countless hot drinks for palmview's most important inhabitants. the doctors with veins like maps in the whites of their eyes, the businessmen that grunted in her direction in lieu of thanks. either way, she loved it — being able to speak to strangers and make connections, talking of the weather and the news and new tea blends that their customers just needed to try. enthusiasm was like an ebbing heartbeat ; constantly thrumming in the background of her every movement. when she saw the next face in the queue, paisley propped herself up on her palms and leaned halfway over the counter, a warm beam of a smile on her lips. “what can i get you today ? ” she asked, “we have a blonde roast that’s to die for.”
