Shopping, shopping. He’d never admit it, but Blaine really liked shopping. He liked popping by the Lilycove department store to see what kind of new gadgets and gizmos they had. He was definitely in the market for new technology -- anything to make his time in the lab either faster or more interesting. Heck, if it was a new mind puzzle/optical illusion book, he’d pick that up. Sometimes things took HOURS to react and do something... and he could only do the crossword for so long before he shredded the newspaper out of sheer rage.
So, it was one of those extended trips where he did in fact, see a puzzle book that he didn’t have before. Walking over to the small section of knick-knacks and other clearance items, he grinned. The lab section was next.
