#mall crawl

Starter for @himeitoga

Free time meant down time. Down time meant fun time and although fun time usually consisted of going out with his friends, today, he was on his own. 

It had been a tough week for classes and he’d actually done pretty well in terms of being proactive about getting some much needed help in the subjects he’d been struggling with. So, what better way to celebrate than with a little shopping spree.

He’d tried to get his friends to join him, but Mina had promised the girls she’d spend time with them this weekend, Sero was visiting family, Kirishima was hanging out with his internship buddies, and Bakugou was pretty tired of the energetic blond by the end of their tutoring sessions so he figured it was better that he not try and drag the explosive guy out to the mall.

Oh well... This was fine too... It wasn’t as fun, though.

With a sigh, Kaminari lowered his gaze and in that split moment of inattentiveness, he managed to bump into someone.

I was mall crawling. I was avoiding the crowds by using the service hallways to get around. I cut through clothing shops for women. I paused to contemplate getting a new western hat, but I'm too far from the section with the hats, and I don't feel like dealing with the people crowded in the shop, so I sneak back out into the empty service hallways.

I drive car to a gas station/bus terminal at east edge of the city. I am parked and a security guard strolls up. I'm not in my car, I am on a bench seat by a wall. I tell the guard I was just waiting for the bus. I can't see my car, but it is there. It just looks like a bench seat. I call mother on an old style flip phone. I am only able say a few words on the phone before a crowd gathers around me. They are actually waiting for real for the bus. I move my car so it is not blocking the bus inlet, just in case a bus actually does show up. Then a bus does arrive. It's a long-distance coach. I remember mother is on the phone, but when I check the phone call has long since gone dead.

Becky flushed again, biting her lip and looking down. Her attention peeked up when Imogen began talking about something that wasn’t her embarrassing slip of the tongue, and she replied, “Well, are you hungry right away? Cause if you aren’t, I don’t really want to eat right away or anything like that, since I had a really big lunch.” Becky paused for a moment before she quickly said, “I’ve been blabbering again, haven’t I?”
