Flower glanced back once before letting go of Anna's hand and flopping on one of the beds. "Baka. Did you see her?" She asked her friend. Then, guessing Anna might lecture her for it, she quickly changed the subject

Anna let herself be pulled into their new room giving a farewell wave to those she hoped would be new friends, but with the way Flower had acted she wasn't sure if anyone would now give them a chance. "Flower..." Anna began. She was used to scolding Flowre on her behaviour and it was strange because she didn't normally act quite like this. Maybe she was just nervous about their new home as all of them were, but Anna hoped that would clear up soon enough. "Don't use that language around here. You know no one knows what you're saying and if Kerry hears you you're in BIG trouble. You didn't have to act like that towards Mouse, Patsy, or Brady." She had heard Salene use their names and intended to remember them as best as she could. "I think we should go apologize and then find Kerry and Tatty. We don't want to appear rude because we're not. Not even you although you want to be all tough like Macy
( ... )
Flower lowered her eyes at Anna's scolding. "But she was grumpy..." She gave one weak protest, but she knew her friend was right. she had been ruder than she needed to be. And she would have been in big trouble with Kerry if he'd heard her call Mouse that. "Alright, we'll go apologize." She sighed, then brightened. "Then we'll find new clothes. You're right, we don't look like Mallrats, and I want to too!"
Anna thought Flower was agreeing a little to readily, but she did that to avoid trouble and go off to do something else. Being in trouble was not something fun Anna knew and she also knew during their time in the Chosen Compound Flower had learned to throw tantrums when appropriate and when to be the sweetest thing around. Anna wished she was able to do some of that, but figured she never could correctly so let it be. "So where do you think they keep clothes around here? It is a Mall afterall, but Salene said that every room was occupied and not to go nosing into them." She sighed, plopping herself on her bed. It was soft and really bouncy she discovered. This could be fun!
"We won't nose into ALL of them." Flower insisted, flopping on the bed for a minute. She grinned when she found it springy, and stood up - bouncing a little. "C'mon, let's go apologize and find those clothes!" She jumped off the bed, grabbed Anna's hand and dragged her out of the room. But nobody was in the main entrance downstairs. "Oh." She glanced around. "Well, we can't apologize if nobody's around...C'mon!" She pulled her toward the stairs.
Flower followed Anna around, blinking in surprise that someone lived back here when no one else seemed too. But then there were sounds from another room, so maybe two people lived back here? Then they were where they were looking for and she bounced ahead of Anna, pausing for a moment to realize that she wasn't sure where they were going to get water to get cleaned up with. Yet, everyone she'd seen so far was so clean...she looked hesitantly at the faucets. They were in the city, but would they really work? Deciding to check with the tub first, she turned a knob. And a steady stream of water came out. "Anna! Water!!" She cried out excitedly, and set her outfit to one side she turned off the water. If the tub worked, the showers much - and they looked more fun.
Anna loved Flower's enthusiasm over the running water. Macy had told them more than once they had electricity and water in the city, but it was like a new discovery to her. Anna knew this would be an interesting time in the city with her best friend and wondered if things would change or how much freedom Ryan would let them have. He didn't seem to have much trouble with them running around the forest and such, but he was never happy that Macy went to the city and he never really spoke well about it either. Would he make them stay in the Mall? Like every day? He wouldn't do that! Would he?
"It's perfect. Very Mallrat." Flower grinned, shoving in so she could pose next to Anna in the mirror. She giggled, then posed again - leaning against her friend this time. "So cool!" She changed her pose one more time, trying hard not to laugh. It was funny, standing here in front of a mirror posing like this. She knew they should go on with the plans they'd made, but was having too much fun.

Anna cleaned up fast happy for the running water although not as excited as Flower. She came out feeling better and nodded at Flower's outfit. "Very nice and Mallrat-ish." She giggled using the word. "And very Flower. Mine?" She now wore a pale multi-coloured top, pink pants, pink tinged shoes, pink and white crocheted hat, and even multi coloured glitter gel bracelets. She was quite happy to find some of this and couldn't wait to ( ... )
