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.

"A-afternoon!" Right. The passage of time. He'd barely even noticed it since he'd been in the shop all this time and really, why would he notice anything besides his euphoria at being in such a lovely place? Without realizing it, he had spent the entire morning in there, browsing and chitchatting and just enjoying himself. It was like shopping through London, minus the crowds and a mistress. "I apologize if I kept you both waiting... I didn't realize we were meeting so soon."

Or that he'd sour this conversation so quickly. Celes' distaste for Grell was almost tangible, which made sense in a way. A general, one who reeked of the upper caste, would always find mingling with the hired help unsavory. And that was just fine with Grell. If the Ice Princess didn't care to look at him, she wouldn't notice that he wasn't what he said he was. And as long as that kept going? Grell stayed alive.

"Ah...yes, that would be a good idea..." He trailed off as his eyes wandered the area, looking for anything that resembled a restaurant or anything that could serve their purpose. Unfortunately, Grell knew nothing about this town and he had little interest in learning about it. "Um, do either of you have a suggestion?"

"No, no, that's alright." X smiled, patting the butler sympathetically on the shoulder. He acted so sweet while wearing this facade... "It seems we've both managed to keep ourselves busy." Pointed words, pointed words.

But yes. It seemed there were only two places to go, and Luxord was never going enter an establishment entitled "Tasty Burger." He held his hands out to both Sutcliff and Chere, making a motion for them to take them. "Twin Pines it is, then, if neither of you mind."
