Just walk right in, it's around the back...

[ Downtown, Midday, open to anyone in town ]

[ One of the buildings has been getting a good bit of attention. The week has seen many things attached to the roof, or added to the alley behind the building that might have been the diner. While the exterior has not been that polished, it has been cleaned and made weather-tight. ]

[ Today, there are three additions to the windows in the front of the building. ]

[ First, the largest addition has been a chalkboard sign in the window, declaring Today's Special to be Pancakes with Fruit. ]

[ Second, there is a cardboard sign requesting volunteers for additional cooks and servers, shifts negotiable. ]

[ Third, a small, neatly hand-lettered sign notes that Dr. Ilsa Higa is available for counseling. ]

[ Inside, there are only two tables for four, but plenty of space for more. However, there are ten stools at the counter. Ilsa is behind the counter, putting away clean dishes in the shelves above the grill, generally straightening up. ]

I don't know how to describe those things, but I'll try to remember how the machine back home handled it and show you.

[ Because she knows he prefers to figure it out rather than bringing the mechanism in whole. ]

Did you get a map worked up of the basic layout of the town? I thought we could post one on the wall, and let people put their own notes on it.

I've done a basic one... I think I left it on the coat rack by the door. But I am not sure it will matter much for long. People are already changing this new town so much that the map is fast becoming out of date.

[ She moves to the counter seat next to him. ]

Maybe we can get the dry-erase wall paint I told you about next week, and let updating the map be a town project?
