Strawberry Short-hair (Seiya Hangout Thread) (RANK UP!)

[seiyayamada]

((Open RP, I welcome multiple threads! <3)) It had been a few days since... the incident. Seiya and her friends were able to save Miho, however, there'd been some emotional side effects. Well, and physical. Seated behind the Yamada Mart counter, it was her first day back in the saddle after the whole ordeal. Mr. Yamada had somehow had a miraculous moment of compassion and let his daughter stay home for about four days. Now that her little mini vacation was up, the girl was expected to be bright eyed and bushy tailed for a while. Still, despite the expectations put on her, Seiya couldn't help but feel down. Self-consciously tugging at her now stubby pony tail, the girl reflected on what she'd told Greg about her hair. How important it was to her, and how it was the one thing in her life that she could control. Oh well. Win some and lose some. Propping her feet up on the counter, she opened a magazine, deciding to lose herself in the lives of celebrities for a while.

Seiya smiled, happy to help him. Nodding, she began to join his thoughtful contemplation over sour candy. "Mmkay. If you want something reeeeally sour, you should get these." She raised a finger, pointing at a bunch of bright fire engine red little balls. "If you're a more timid sour fan, the orange are the next level down, and then yellow is for babies."

Hmmm. Not an easy decision, though he was already certain he didn't want the yellow kind. Greg filled up the small portion of his bag that was still empty with half red and half orange, figuring that'd do. "All right, uh... Mine's full, then. How's yours looking?" He tried to get a look at Seiya's bag, a little curious about what she'd chosen.

The top of the girl's bag was full of gummy worms. She twisted it closed, taking twizzler from the dispenser and wrapping it around her bag. Turning to Greg, she offered him his own little tie. "Looking tasty! Places like this are horrible for me. If I'm allowed near this much candy, I might just eat it all." Grinning, she headed for the counter, where Peppermint Man was doing the worm. Wow.

"Heh. My bag usually lasts a day or two, but not much longer than that." Greg followed her to the counter while tying his bag up... At least he was paying for his own this time! The boy already had his wallet ready by the time they got there, though he did stop to give peppermint man the consideration that he frankly deserved. How much were they paying this guy? It should probably be doubled. "Is this their, uhhh... 'Thing'?"

[seiyayamada]

Following him to the counter, she waited behind him as the not so enthused girl behind the counter rang him up.

"Takashi get up off the floor you're embarrassing yourself." The clerk mumbled, the cash register springing open.

The peppermint man jumped up to his feet, wiggling his arms like spaghetti.

[americandiplomacy]

Oh, his favorite kind of customer service. Greg wasn't even being sarcastic about that one, the best way to get in and out of a store efficiently was with a clerk who actively didn't like you and wanted you out as soon as possible. For that reason his payment was real quick, and he stepped aside so that Seiya could take care of hers hopefully in the same fashion. "You like gummy stuff, uh..." He paused to watch peppermint man dance, "... Don't you?"

[seiyayamada]

"A lot." Seiya beamed, placing her bag down as she fished out her wallet. Paying the cashier in a timely manner, she reclaimed her candy.

Peppermint Man, however, wasn't so eager to see them go. He obstructed their path to the door with his rendition of the robot, his googly eyes dangling around as he moved.
