Dayshift 42: Main Street - Noon

[continued thread from here]

Hahaha~ Poor Sheena. At this rate, she was doomed. At least it was a playful kind of doomed. Sheena was her friend after all, and if Harley actually felt the girlie was in any danger, she wouldn't have been as nice to little miss youkai over here. Sheena was so dramatic sometimes, heh.

Harley made an excited Oh! noise when she heard this was Yukari's first trip. Fun! "Place is small and boring, but you can have fun anywhere if you know how. We're all dolled up with nowhere to go anyway. Let's hit the town!~" Dusty, little Nowheresville town, but still. Might as well take advantage of whoever's tax dollars were funding this little trip.

She turned away from Yukari, leaned forward, and held a hand up above her eyes as though she was concentrating real hard on looking far away. She turned her head back and forth eagerly as she spoke. "I just been down this street before. Not a whole lot. There's a burger joint and some beauty places and a grocery store and some place with TVs and ya can't really see it from here but there's a hardware store waaaay down there, too. Also heard there's a toy store somewhere around here!"

Harley wasn't a really picky person when it came to the where. If it was up to her, she'd be picking up a big mallet, some machine guns, and a flamethrower... some snacks, too. She hadn't had anything high in sugar in a long time. Since even she knew those weren't an option, well, there had to be some place that was fun.

"Even if it's not much, it's certainly a bit more than our normal playground, don't you think?" Yukari pointed out reasonably. After all, if it weren't for what happened at night, Yukari might have already gotten so bored of the institute as to just go into hibernation until it went away.

"A toy store, huh? I don't suppose there's a candy shop too?" suggested the youkai. Sure, some of their meals at the institute came with dessert, but that just wasn't the same as sweets. "Though perhaps obtaining some real food first would be better? What do you think, lunch or dessert?"

Ohhh. Ohhh. Why did she have to make her decide? She was so conflicted. Any place worth existing HAD to have a candy place somewhere. She'd never heard anyone say anything about one though. If she had, there was no doubt she'd want to go there first and foremost. On the other hand, she was kinda hungry, too, and there was only so much candy they could yank before someone caught them and started chasing them down the street. Decisions, decisions.

Suddenly, Harley remembered something. She shoved her hands in her overall pockets, turning them inside out until she found where she put the coupons from this morning. If she remembered right... "Hah! How's about both?" she grinned and held out one of them like proof. "Lookie. This place gives out a meal and ice cream."

Yukari smiled at the suggestion and dug around in her own bag, pulling out the little booklet of coupons and flipping to the right one. Tasty Burger, huh? It sounded like it had all the class of a child's birthday party, but there was ice cream.

"Well, then, sounds like a plan!" she agreed happily. Looking around, she spotted the garishly colored sign for the restaurant just down the street. "Shall we be off?"
