Dizzy

“Concentration. Great,” Izzy dryly stated, sighing a little before shrugging to herself and moving to sit down and take off her shoes. “My specialty. I'll uh... I'll test 'em out. If I break them or something I'll come back and pay... don't wanna do it in here in case I break something else...”

Thankfully she was wearing barefoot shoes, so she at least didn't have to worry about the awkward question of ‘where do I put my socks’. On the other hand, she was a little worried that her feet would be too big for the ancient footwear, but after only a small amount of effort she managed to get them on.

Phew. Okay...!” she exhaled, lightly kicking her shoes off to one side as she briskly padded towards the door. “Let's—”

There was a sudden fwoosh, a fantastically indescribably impossibly spectacular head-over-heels quadruple corkscrew inverse gainer flip, and a dull smack as Izzy found herself face-first against the floor.

“...grmph...”

Lambert had to hold back a flinch at the mention of Lancelot, but tried to play it cool.

"I hope not" He said "God knows I only want to pay for the sins of this life"

He tried to describe what he thought about it, but he felt a bit less eloquent than he needed to be for this. Hopefully, Mara will understand.

"There is something about it that draws the eyes" He said, with a shrug "Just makes me curious. Either I got something crazy or just the kind of decoration that'd drive a mum crazy" He tried to chuckle a bit.

"Dragons are no joke, especially the big ones" He said Don't I know it? "Can't say anything about riding them, though"

"What called to that skull, by the way?"

But then, Izzy went with some kind of old hoverboard and wiped out big time. Rushing, he tried to see if there was blood or anything.

"This'll become routine, will it?" He asked. "I'll take care of anything that got damaged" He told the clerk.

Mitzi - Salt and Pepper Diner


Mitzi reddened, green skin making this even more obvious. Yeah, and that was extra obvious in hindsight. "Thank you," she near whispered. "I know I must be a load."
There was a pink someone accelerating right at them and Mitzi had to hold onto to her seat to not leap up. Her only clue that she shouldn't leap up was Brokk calmly watching. She raised a finger only for the server(?) to explain that she was an earth elemental and to give them menus. Okay, I have no questions then.
"I... see," Mitzi finally answered Salti. "I wasn't going to ask that though unless licking faces is how you say hello around here. Even then..." She twiddled her fingers a moment before realizing she had a way out of that conversation. "Yes. Picture. Sure. Um..." She tapped her forehead, picturing all the things she hadn't chosen to wear out and looking between Brokk and Salti. "Have a color? Place? Order everyone goes in? And I can fly back and get something else in like 17 minutes."

Mara Springwood

Lambert's reaction to her teasing wasn't particularly odd, but he seemed to take the joke more seriously than she'd expected, and Mara got the sense that she may have struck a nerve. She made a mental note: lay off on the knight in shining armor jokes for now, no matter how easy the cat made them. She nodded along to his vague explanation about the painting, laughing at his wisecracks even though she didn't quite get the joke - she'd never hung anything on the walls of her room that didn't pass her parents' muster, since the local pigs had a habit of targeting their house in "random" searches and anything out of the ordinary was a recipe for trouble.

Mara looked askance at Lambert when he implied that he'd had personal experience with dragons; maybe her Lancelot dig had been more on-the-nose than she'd intended. Before she could follow-up on this tidbit, though, she was caught off guard by his question for her. She furrowed her brow in thought.

"You mean before I noticed it had invisible squishy insides? I don't know, maybe I felt bad for the little guy. He lived a whole life, maybe made it with some animal chick, had some weird babies, the whole deal. And now he's in this shop, and the only thing anybody cares about is that he's dead and his skull looks cool. The only thing left behind is the worst thing that ever happened to him."

Mara looked at the skull for a moment, not thinking about anything in particular. Then she looked at Lambert and quirked a smile.

"Or maybe I just thought the big fangs were rad."

A crash from across the room diverted Mara's attention, and she was right on Lambert's heels as he rushed to her and began to check for damage. She placed a supportive hand on Izzy's elbow, helping her to turn over and encouraging Izzy to open her mouth so Mara could check for chipped teeth.

Once the damage was fully assessed, Mara sat back on her heels and sighed.

"The cat has a point, Izz. You thought about getting a helmet or something? Some kneepads? I'd hate to see you break that pretty face of yours."

Dizzy

“—I'm good, I-I'm good. M'sorry...” Izzy placated in a daze, reluctantly letting Mara and Lambert check her over before huffing as she sat up. “That's kinda what I want the suit for. I mean that weird shield I get helps, but I'd like something between me and the stuff I smack into...”

She flushed intensely at Mara's latter comment, and promptly ducked her head in embarrassment. She coughed into her fist, quickly slipping her feet out from the ancient anklets, before giving the shop owner a sheepish smile as she placed them back on the counter and pushed them towards him.

“...s-sorry. Didn't make it to the door... uh, don't think those really work for me. Thanks, though. Worth a shot in asking, you know...?”

Do I actually have a pretty face, or is she just saying that...? Izzy found herself wondering, flicking her gaze over towards Mara with an expression best described as disbelieving. ...if she actually means that then whoa. Feels... funny...

It was a different experience, being considered nice to look at by anyone other than her parents. Her mind began to go into overdrive before she remembered that she was still standing barefoot like an idiot, and hastily went over to retrieve her shoes again. She decided to worry about all that later, in case she embarrass herself again.

“You guys really worry about me, huh...?” she found herself mumbling, still looking mostly at the ground. “You know I'm fine, right? I've said it before...”

"That was pretty deep, or crazy, depending on who you ask" Lambert noted to Mara, answering what was said before looking at Izzy.

"You are...kind of a friend already, Iz" He said, a bit subdued, and very awkwardly. Affection is hard "Seeing you crash headfirst into the nearest hard surface is going to keep scaring for a while, even if it's obvious that you can take it" He gave her a pat on the head, to emphasize it.

"Although that talk about a suit reminds me I have to start working on my armor" He mused out loud.

Rab-ZI 8

After they exited the tubes (doubtlessly tumbling a bit-that was part of the fun!)Rab, Lux, and Rosa would find themselves before a huge store with brightly colored walls and catchy ambient music. The space was nearly filled with a seemingly endless rack of clothes on a conveyer-like track, very similar to a dry-cleaner's shop. Dotted about were small computer consoles where a few other shoppers were choosing items. Somehow no matter how many people were ordering clothes, the track managed to accommodate them all. Along each wall were odd blue-skinned, milk-eyed humanoids-clearly artificial-in dull mustard-colored jumpsuits. Each also had a small collar on their neck with a blinking light attached. A few staff walked about, looking snappy and cheerful in orange and dark blue uniforms. A much smaller track, marked CLEARANCE and lacking a console, stood to the side.

As each person entered, a single blue humanoid (bluemanoid?) would turn its head to observe them for a second, before turning back to stillness. They were so lifeless and robotic that it was easy to forget that they were even there at all. An observant person, however, might have seen that no less than three focused on Rab when he came in, and one didn't seem to relapse to statue-like immobility as quickly as the others.

Rab (who was not terrible observant) grinned and gestured to the massive room. "See? Very efficient. You just walk up to a console, type in what you want, and it gives you options. Then a selection is whisked out to you in a jiffy. No annoying salespeople, no wandering for hours hoping you find something good enough. Easy!" He glanced at the "people" lining the walls. "Never mind them. The Amalek are just there as security cameras. If there's a problem they'll activate, but I've never actually seen it happen. Each person is "assigned" one when you come in, and if you try to shoplift it's sent to retrieve the item. Very dedicated." He covered his mouth and mock-whispered. "But dumb."

Antique Shop

Suddenly, a loud chirp sounded out from the uppermost shelf, the shelf quaking as a large coo-coo clock bellowed out a not so soothing melody. It was a screechy warble, letting everyone know it was half-past noon.

"Whoops! Nearly lost track!" The shopkeeper walked over to the counter, taking out two $100 bills and giving them to Mara. "There you go, miss. Took a bit to get the proper amount. Your friend's antique is about half that, if he's still interested. But we'll have to make this quick. Don't know about you, but I'm supposed to be on lunch break..."


Fortuneteller

Above Kara and Nikolai's heads, a large chime rang out from a pristine clocktower, looming over the shop like a monument. It sounded half past noon, or about lunch for most people. Nothing was stopping them from continuing to browse the fortuneteller's ware, but if their stomachs started to rumble, it would be far from suprising.

Mara Springwood

"What Lam said, chickadee."

Mara shoved her hands into her pockets and shrugged.

"Besides, just because you're fine now doesn't mean you always will be. I won't let a few false alarms stop me from checking."

Mara wandered back to the counter just in time for the clerk to finish counting her cash. Her eyebrows shot up at the two crisp hundreds she was handed, and she looked in shock between the money and the clerk for a moment before recovering her relaxed expression. That was a lot of dough! At least, she thought it was. The old guy on the front of each bill was obviously someone besides The Martyr, and for all she knew that wasn't the only difference.

Still. 200 dollars wasn't chump change.

"Uh, pleasure doing business with you, man. We'll get out of your hair for now, but thanks for the cash!"

Mara, with some small measure of reluctance that was easily overshadowed by the feel of cold hard cash in her hands, placed the strange skull back on the shelf, giving it a parting pat on the head.

"See you around, little dude."

She turned to the others and clapped her hands together decisively.

"I'm starved! How's heading to a diner sound?"

“Y-You guys...” Izzy murmured, stuttering in embarrassment for a moment before closing her eyes and letting out a sigh. “...I-I'm sorry for scaring you like that. Just... don't worry about me crashing into stuff. Unless I really hurt myself...”

Having finished putting her shoes back on, she got up to rejoin them, sending the shop owner a faint smile before nodding in agreement with Mara as she stretched a little.

“Ugh, yeah... starved here too. Let's go find someplace. Don't think these antiques taste too good...”

Brokk - Salt and Pepper Diner

"You're not a burden, Mitzi." Brokk assured.

"And you don't need to dress up." Salti reassured, waving her hands as if to dismiss the concern. "If you're bothered by it, I don't need a picture. I was just thinking of getting a candid shot of you guys eating or something. Sorry if I came on too strong."

"Aye, ye do that." Brokk said, amused. Salti stuck out a rocky tongue at him in response.

"Anyway, I can give you some time to look over the menu, if you want. Get you some drinks in the meantime. Okay?" Salti smiled genuniely.

"Ok, Floaty"

Lambert quietly pulled his wallet, slipped a couple of big bills and placed them on the counter. He might have some issues with other currencies, but at least he could pay.

"Well, it was a pleasure to do business with you" He said, but put "Can I get it sent to this address? I still have some business around here" He said, writing something down. An address.

"And another one for the bother" He said, putting another twenty on the table.

With that, he left the place, taking a look at the skull and other stuff.

Well, I could get those later He thought. At least make a surprise. Still, he didn't want a scolding or any misunderstandings.

"I am right behind you" He said to the others.

Pedro — ZI 8

Sitting on a bench near a console for shoes was a young man about the same age as the trio that just walked in, trying on a new pair as his old shoes sat next to him, soles practically hanging on by just a dab left of adhesive.

After putting them on, the boy looked at the box it came in, reading out, "'Longer lasting, better fitting, and better traction than the leading brand of shoe for speedsters.' Man, I wish someone told me about this place before, would've saved me a fortune."

Loitering outside the store, Rab spotted the kid. Who's that? His shoes look..very familiar.. Zipping over, he gave them another look, then let out a low whistle. "Nice! You got the new Steppers! And the Quicksilver Edition, too!" He paused, eyeing up the young man. "So you wore out your old ones? How long have you been running?" Rab cast a quick glance back at the store. I'm sure they're fine. I wonder if I have time to zip down to the food court and grab some munchies before Lux and Rosa get done?

Mara Springwood

"Rad, let's bail."

With that, Mara headed out of the shop, eventually leading the group to a joint that looked promising enough: The Salt and Pepper Diner. The giant salt and pepper shakers out front were a nice touch, at least.

Mara pushed open the doors and gave the place a look, relieved that the burger joint seemed pretty similar to the ones back home. Though, as habit sent her eyes flicking to the nooks and crannies of the diner, she noted that either there was an odd lack of surveillance cameras, or they'd gotten a lot better at hiding the things in the intervening years. That thought eroded some of the relief.

Mara spotted Brokk and Mitzi first, sitting at a frankly adorable child-sized table, and she was just about to join them when she spotted James sitting uncomfortably at another table in the corner. A spike of guilt shot through her; she'd been the one to encourage him to come out, but she'd completely failed to make sure the cat was actually having a good time. She changed course, beelining toward James and dropping into the booth next to him, flinging an arm over the back of the seat.

"Jimmy! Sorry to hold you up, had an errand to run. But I promised you a milkshake, and I intend to deliver plus interest. Get whatever you want, I've got cash for days."

To punctuate that statement, Mara waved one of the hundred dollar bills in front of James' face, not to gloat, but simply out of sheer excitement.

“Hey guys...” Izzy motioned as she followed Mara into the diner, perking up a little to see her classmates again as she moved to sit down. “Cool cat's got bills, so she's happy...~”

Look at her. D'awwwww.

Shaking it off, she paused halfway onto her seat as she realised she wasn't sure who to sit down with. Deciding it ultimately didn't matter, she just picked someone at random and cricked her neck a little to relieve some of the stiffness from her earlier crash.

Phew. Okay, what've you guys been up to...?” she queried, glancing between them all. “Me, Mara and Lambchop found that antiques place. Pretty pog. I uh... I tried on some weird Mesozoic-era soap shoes or whatever and nearly broke the whole shop. That was... fun...”

Diner

"And thats when I said, 'no, officer, thats my parrot!" a small crowd of people at a corner booth laughed as Nathan smiled, letting out a small sigh as he checked his watch. "I'd love to hang around but I really do have to get going," he gave a wave toward the group and paused for a hug from one of the people before pausing and realizing that he didn't actually have any idea where to go. He had gotten distracted because he had found out that the boy in the corner booth didn't have anyone celebrating his birthday and had thrown a small party by calling a group of his friends. Of course by doing this he had completely forgotten that he was supposed to swing by the Academy to deal with a number of issues given his late registration.

"Okay Nathan don't panic, all you have to do is go to Saint's Academy, calmly explain that there was very important birthday business for a stranger you had to take care of, a situation that obviously everyone in the world has run into at some point in their lives, and they will give you a trophy and make you valedictorian," he paused for a moment and sighed. "Well, if I say it enough times it might not sound like its utterly crazy."

His plan lasted all about two minutes as he noticed some of the most interesting people he had ever met and walked over to them. "Hey there, my names Nathan, spelled with an N, because that is the way that my parents put it down. Want to be friends?"

Mara Springwood

Mara's eyebrows flicked upwards slightly as she regarded the newcomer from her comfortable sprawl. People weren't usually so friendly with strangers in her experience - too much risk of saying the wrong thing to the wrong person and getting yourself flagged as a subversive element. Her own vibrant social circle had been achieved through coaxing and patience, each new confederate like a starved feral dog slowly learning to accept human touch. Even now, forced to start over completely, she'd found that many of her new classmates were similarly skittish, and her standard approach had been working as well as before. So, needless to say, she was a little caught off guard by the charm offensive which had just been leveled at their group; she wasn't used to not being the friendliest person in the room.

Still, no matter how much he'd thrown her, there was no reason to turn down a little extra company.

"Sure, man, always room for one more. I'm Mara with an M, this cat here is James with a J, and we've also got Izzy with an I and Lambert with an L. Mitzi and Brokk are over there in their little love shack. That's an M and a B, if you were keeping track."

Mara pointed to each person as she spoke, and though her smile was friendly she couldn't resist the tease. Because, seriously, how else did the cat think 'Nathan' could be spelled? Mara gave Nathan a quick once-over before continuing.

"You go to school in the area? You look about our age, so I'm guessing high school, not college. Am I right?"

Oh, yeah. Why is he even here...?

She wouldn't say no to a friendly face, but there was a genuine question of ‘why?’ Perhaps he was meant to be with them, and had just missed a memo. Or he was just that desperate for friends.

For a reason she didn't understand at first, she felt a shiver rock up through her spine at that thought. Shaking it off, she found herself looking at him a little more sympathetically than before.

“He can sit down, right? There's room...”

James, Salt and Pepper Diner.

Well, eventually the youth had managed to work up the nerve to walk into the diner, if only to take a seat hopefully out of sight until he figured out what things on the menu were.

...That didn't last long when Mara, Izzy and some new fellow showed up, causing him to give a quiet mouse-like squeak of surprise and swiftly turn a shade of red from embarrassment, trying to hide his face behind a menu in response to suddenly being discovered and nervously answering Izzy's question.

"N-Nothing, n-nothing, just...l-looking around a-and ended up here, i-is all...d-didn't get lost, nope..."

...Okay, that wasn't necessarily a lie, although considering how much he was fidgeting, it certainly looked like it as he nodded at Mara.

"I-I-I mean, I-I've got p-plenty of, um, c-currency to buy myself...w-whatever anything on t-this list or in g-general..." He meekly replied to Mara's comment, holding up a rather...flashy and sleek silver, almost metallic looking card but forcing himself to smile as nervous as it looked. "B-But...o-okay, I-I guess whatever a m-milkshake is will do f-for a start...it says strawberry flavored, s-so, um, d-definitely one of those..."

And with Nathan introducing himself, James couldn't help but get even more flustered.

"U-Um, w-we only j-just met...i-it'd be n-nice but m-maybe a day or t-two...?"

Diner

"Nice to meetcha everyone," it seemed that his sunny personality was a thing that was going to continue to happen but he soon turned his focus directly to Mara in relation to her question. "Well I'm a Saint's Academy student...will be a Saint's Academy student...am already?" he paused for a moment to consider the current paradoxical nature of his enrollment within the Academy. "Due to certain issues I couldn't make it right away, and I was supposed to go and set things up. I stopped for a quick meal here before going and found out a guy was having a birthday but no one was going to come, so obviously I had to set up a birthday party at priority one right?" he motioned back to the birthday party behind him which seemed to be dying down, a few people passing numbers and saying their goodbyes.

"So I kind of have to explain why I was late, fill out some paperwork and stuff. But I mean the letter said I was accepted so..." he gave a small shrug before returning his focus to the others.

With Izzy's invitation he took a seat and looked over to James as if they had just grown a third head and said the sky was pink. Which would be impressive both because that would mean James would have grown two extra heads at once and changed the color of the sky. This one he would have to watch out for.

"Of course, I wouldn't force anyone to be my friend," he paused for a moment. "How would that even work? I mean a friend is someone you feel comfortable around, and if I made someone say they were my friend they couldn't be comfortable. Thats just confusing."

Lambert studied the new kid for a minute, but just added a nod. It's indeed quite an experience seeing so energetic, so, he might have had to take the moment to at least get his ideas back together.

"Hello" He managed, at least, not too smooth, but it'll do "Lambert Lake, just some swordsman" He got out, just to at least leave the introduction aside for now.

"You might have some trouble" He commented to Nathan. "Doubt they'd give you too much of a scolding, but not something you can repeat too often"

Well, that's something at least.

Mara Springwood

Okay, the kid was growing on her (not that she was hard to please). She'd been the host of many an illicit birthday rager, after all. She gave James a sympathetic look when he seemed nervous, though it didn't surprise her - if anyone needed a gentle approach, it was that cat.

Mara sat up straighter upon hearing that the new kid was a fellow student of the Academy, some of her lingering mistrust abating. However, she frowned at Lambert's slightly grim pronouncement. She leaned in close, lowering her voice just in case there were surveillance cameras she hadn't spotted yet.

"Hey man, we're Saint's Academy students too, we can totally cover for you. Hide your wallet somewhere good, and we'll say you got mugged and we found you walking to campus. The teachers are all total softies, they'll let you off without a scratch."

Mara's definition of "without a scratch" may have been slightly different than the others', but the point still stood. No need for anybody to take any unnecessary falls.

It took him a few moments longer to realize what he said and nervously apologized as Lambert's comment made him tilt his head.

"...j-just a swordsman? D-Don't you have o-other powers o-or tech...?"

And as if on cue expecting an answer, James didn't waste get any time getting a notepad and pencil out of his messenger bag, ready to take down notes.

Lambert just shrugged "I am actually a mage, but for the most part I just consider myself a swordsman, my main trick is that, well, I make swords, many swords with their own powers. I could say I have quite the arsenal, even those swords I brought with me are more than just pointy things" He noted.

Playing it off he simply just took a seat.
