location: local supermarket for: @r3spair - pearl
the store's rearranged itself from his last memory of it. ought to be expected , of course , things optimise , he can understand that , but what really makes his stomach cave into itself is that he can't actually remember the last time he shopped for himself. not outside of being somewhere and pointing to things that someone else would ring up on his behalf.
he moves slowly , re-orienting himself with the fact that the cereal is where the coffee used to be , the paper towels are where the cereal used to be. there's a cap on his head hopefully obscuring most of his face , but he knows he's still being watched , something he's been ignoring for the past five minutes. now he'll just have to admit he's a little out of his depth.
" hey. " he calls over , knows they're listening , don't matter how discreet they're being. head tips sideways , “ don’t suppose you know where they hide the coffee now ? ”
