[ no normal tags allowed i need to have someone in the background with their wriothesley umbrella. rafayel sees them and thinks wow, that isn't that appropriate for a family friendly establishment like this, but says nothing more on the matter....
you know, aside from his gaze falling back to her shooing him away. ]
Now I know how the flies and mosquitos feel. [ :( ]
I was making sure you don't miss anything on our master list.
[ it's fine, the person to their left has one of those lifesize floppy sylus dolls cradled lovingly in one hand. merch really is out of control these days. speaking of merch— ]
The master list?
[ ....
OH RIGHT. she heads back towards the shelves but then freezes again. ]
Shouldn't we get most of it afterwards though? Otherwise it'll be too much to carry.
where is the cute merch. where is the person wearing their elythorns nuis in their oshikatsu bag. ]
Then can't we just put all our stuff in the coin lockers. [ he gestures to the lockers in the front of the park. ] But, maybe we can grab the really big stuff after? [ what merch could they possibly need that is that huge... ]
[ that can be them.....ties this back to office au somehow. ]
Oh! That's a great idea.
[ japan you really have everything. now that raf has proposed the solution to all their problems, she's brimming with excitement again, enough to grab his hand and pull him back towards the merch shelves. ]
What about the giant Pompompurin? Didn't you say you wanted one of those?
the pompompurin hat for them to put on their thorns nui. but, oh... that's all it took to convince her, huh? the idea does make him a smile a little. albeit, you know in a slightly smug way. ] Well, duh. I always come up with the best ideas. You just don't listen. [ lol. ]
Are you sure you want that? You won't complain about running out of space in your home again? [ put he's already picking it off the shelf. why is this thing so big actually? he can't see and hopefully he isn't knocking stuff off the shelf like he's at book-off. ]
[ at least he won't cry like he's at book-off even if he knocks something over....
but, he has a good point about running out of room. there's only so much stuff a one bedroom apartment can fit after all. not that the logistics are stopping her. ]
I won't, I promise! I'll find a way to make room.
[ although.... ]
But maybe we can keep him at your place until I clean everything up? [ hehe? ]
yet, even when it's so expected, he finds himself smiling. you know, behind the very big exposed hole that is pompompurin. ]
... I'd expect nothing less from our resident troublemaker. But, sure. All I got is room at my place, anyway. Even if the storage room is looking a liiiitle unruly already. [ between their crane game winnings and his art supplies...
but yeah, they absolutely gachapon. this is why beatrix has to work overtime sometimes, so she can pay for her blind box addiction. what is money for if not for food and little guys? and paying rent, probably. ]
Why do you even have that big of a place anyway? [ better question is how he affords it.... ] You could probably save a lot of money if you moved to a smaller apartment.
I need a room for my art supplies, and an actual studio to work in, don't I? Plus, I am technically working two jobs... [ between his art and the the office. albeit, he's never viewed his art as an actual job, and he'd like to ideally keep it that way. ]
Besides, if I moved into a smaller place, where would all the little guys go?
Hey, I don't put all my little guys at your place!
[ just some of them.....most of them........storage is at a premium these days, okay!!! but since they've agreed to go on a shopping bonanza, she's back to adding things into their basket. blind boxes, cute hair accessories, and even: ]
This would look pretty cute on you.
[ holds up kuromi bowtie in front of rafayel. actually it's more like she's holding it up in front of pompompurin but close enough. ]
[ tell that to the homeless little guys all over the world, bea...
but, he still dutifully follows behind her, just doing his best not to knock anything else down. but, when he peeks over the jumbo pompompurin, he looks at the bowtie and then back at her. ] Then are you going to be the matching My Melody? [ tipping his head to point as a matching ribbon tie that goes onto clothes.
pink and blue is a combo, right? ] That reminds me, we never did start watching that, huh...
[ where is our my melody kuromi netflix series watch ]
[ just say the word and i'll be there for the watch party....
but there's something embarrassing about matching accessories. that's basically what couples do, right? so does that mean they're officially a couple?? or is this more of a friend thing? she and zeta match all the time, after all. maybe it's just a friend thing then? he seems so nonchalant about it............. ]
We can start it tomorrow then! I'll be way too tired tonight.
[ she's giving it her all at the theme park today!! but okay, one kuromi bowtie for rafayel and one matching my melody ribbon for her. ]
[ the idea that they both go off into their own tangents internally is so funny. but, in reality, this time rafayel isn't thinking much beyond perhaps surpassing zeta. he would wear the bow tie unprompted in front of her, or put it on his lunch bag...
does zeta care... probably not, but that's also not the point. pettiness doesn't have boundaries or an expiration. ] So you've already steeled yourself to playing until you drop today. [ it was always the plan, but the idea of her definitely regretting it tomorrow is a little funny. ]
What about... the Gudetama waffle maker? [ on top of the 100 random gadgets they probably buy on a whim and have stores up somewhere. do they even make waffles that often? their waffle and gridle era. ]
[ does zeta even know raf exists other than as Some Guy.....the important questions here
but zeta isn't here so the point is moot! all that does matter right now is the wealth of goods in front of them, including the prized gudetama waffle maker. does beatrix have any kitchen space for specialized kitchen gadget number 42934, no, but that's not stopping her from squinting at the thing. ]
I do love waffles..... [ they've probably made waffles like once in their lives. ] Plus this one's limited edition! If we don't get it now, we might never be able to get it again!
[ it's somehow funnier to think zeta doesn't even know he exists while he lives in this one-sided rivalry (delusion). regardless, he does seem satisfied enough that it's in the cart. you know, next to their other growing list of awful things they will use once and then store away to never see the light of day. ]
Yeah, we can start making waffles on our days off. [ there is sadly no one who can stop either of them. there is no voice of reason here, minus the judgmental stares they get from actual children and their parents, probably. ]
[ THAT APRON IS SOOOO CUTE so naturally she immediately falls in love with it as soon as he shows it to her. also it's blue? her color? she can't say no to that. she immediately grabs it and holds it up in front of her. ]
I've always wanted this apron! It's soooo cute. [ raf.....you have such good taste ] But what about you? You need an apron too.
[ are they just going to match everything.....sure why not ]
brb, give him a second to look over the giant plushie he's carrying. ] It looks good. As I thought, blue really is your color. [ nodding, before he looks back to the shelf, and he tips his head between a pink version of it, and...
[ so sorry but she can't help but stare wide-eyed at the apron he picks out. ]
That one? Seriously?
[ it's so.......she wouldn't call it ugly per se but.......well, it doesn't really matter, does it? if that's the one he likes, then that's the one they should get. besides, the longer she stares at it, the cuter it gets. growing on her like some kind of sea fungus.....just like rafayel? no, jk. ]
You said he's your favorite, right? Then we should definitely get it.
[ i realized so late but why do the eyes look like toddies ]
... You really aren't going to stop me, huh? Should I be flattered, or is that your way of saying I look good in everything? [ trying to wink, but instead it's lame because his vision is still being impaired by the plushie...
and the negative aura from him buying this apron. ]
We should make sure we check out the limited Halloween stuff, too.
[ a reminder before both of them forget in like one second. ]
[ I DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE who's gonna tell him when he finally puts it on and he has hangyodon toddies
also they are never going to make it to the actual theme park at this rate. everything is going to close and they are still going to be here trapped in the gift shop with their overflowing basket. do they have carts? they probably need a cart for all the stuff they're buying. ]
I almost forgot! [ she did forget ] What if they have that really cute candy basket from last year? The one with all the mascots on it?
[ neither of them are going to use it ]
C'mon, let's go! [ grabs his wrist and starts dragging him off again.... ]
[ i never thought i would see the words hangyodon toddies
but, you're right. will they ever get to the rides at this rate. is this not so different than their online shopping addiction. do they have carts at the amusement park... is anyone like them buying overpriced goods. ]
You think they'd have a design from last year?
[ aren't they both too old for trick or treating. but, he does smile and let himself be dragged off. ]
By the way, what are you going to be for Halloween?
[ surely the other shoppers are more savvy....surely they know better than to buy specialty goods they don't need........ ]
Zeta wanted us all to go as a group of fast foods but there's no way I'm going as a hamburger! That's just embarrassing!
[ she's going to pout and whine about it. who would want to dress up as a hamburger....it's not cute or fun. even if the thought of eustace wearing a giant hot dog outfit would be hilarious. ]
Why? I think you'd make a perfect hamburger considering how many of them you ate the other day. What was that quote...? You are what you eat? You eat... [ he seems to drift off into thought for a moment, before he ends up not continuing, because...
he just feels like he's right already.
... and maybe he's a little distracted with trying to maneuver them to the halloween buckets. oh no, are those blind boxes he sees.
[ i can't even begin to decipher what you put in your last brackets ]
If I was what I ate then I would definitely be a cake! A really cute and pretty cake, with flowers and nice frosting.
[ don't assign her hamburger wow. she's assigning him a stinky fish sandwich then. or she would, if she didn't also spot the blind boxes he's looking towards.
[ maybe it's lucky she doesn't go down that route, yeah....
this argument would never end because who is the mature adult here...
but, also!! ] Gasp!! [ i hate he talks like this. he'd also "le gasp" but that was too much for me to type. my stomach started hurting. ] Isn't that the one you've been looking for? I guess the theme park would be the only place that hasn't sold out.
[ add to cart x2, x3, until there's a sign that says limit one per guest. ]
