#23 [action] - me and my shiny new scissors

[littlestdevil]

[During the early afternoon, Koakuma is out for a walk near the lake. It's still particularly-cold out, so she doesn't plan on attempting to swim or anything. But she does appear to like it here when the weather isn't just completely out to get her, so here she is

[Adell enters the general store shortly after Koa arrives, going to just grab something to drink. After contenting himself with a bottle of blue sports drink, he catches sight of her.]

Hey Koa! Didn't expect to see you. What's up?

[He can probably see the basket full of the things that she's decided on...and one of those things doesn't quite fit in with the rest.]

Oh, um...just picking up a few things, really.

[He blinks, glancing at her basket.]

Scissors and ribbons, Koa? Looking at taking up a new hobby?

[littlestdevil]

N-no, not exactly... It's more like...

I kind of overheard-over-read?-someone talking about something, a-and I'm pretty sure I'm going to need these. Probably some other things, too, but I can worry about the rest later.

[Perhaps Jack will just have to find out. He's got enough hair that he requires a little upkeep himself, which is why he's around the same section procuring a comb of his own, as well as some razors for shaving. He likes to keep himself clean cut. As he gives the top of his head a cursory comb back, he spies the 'little girl' nearby.]

You really need that many combs? [One of those could be what he needs.]

[littlestdevil]

Well, I suppose I only need one big one and one small one...

[originaljackass]

Or maybe you need the one that's just right. Everyone loves a happy medium, especially Goldi.

[littlestdevil]

[That went so far over her head I don't even]

Who?

[donaldtrumpcard]

[There's a man in a hood and dark goggles just looming over the store area all suspiciously like. And one may notice that he's getting bug containers. Like five or more of them actually. He's going to glance over and kind of stare at your weird assortment of items.]

...

[littlestdevil]

[Koa doesn't immediately notice this, presently looking through a shelf of various hair-care products. If she isn't careful, she might accidentally bump into him when she goes to move.]

[donaldtrumpcard]

[Oh she does! And when it happens all of his precious bug containers are gonna go plooey and slip out of his hand. Coincidentally falling into the ground. Noooo!]

[littlestdevil]

[She was not expecting this! Thankfully not stumbling over and falling down herself (for once), it just takes her a moment to realize what's going on. When she does, she drops her basket and starts scrambling to pick up the fallen items.

That only makes sense; it's her fault he dropped them, right? H-hopefully they're okay!]

[At the house there might be something unexpected, however it might else be too subtle to notice. You know how in the living room Charlotte has that godawful bronze elephant? Well today... she's trying at taking a catnap under it, snuggling up with one of her penguin plushies (namely the one Adell got her this year for Christmas).

There are many things wrong this this picture or might go wrong from here. Choose wisely]

[littlestdevil]

[You want to know what might go wrong here? Koa might trip on you instead of that silly elephant.

And so she does.]

W-wha-[Thud.]

[hazelrink]

[Well that's awkward.

...It wakes her up, a little. Only a little. Bleary still]

[littlestdevil]

O-o-oww...
