Milky kinda just sowed up her clothes and washed them so she could actually wear them to the mall. She collected the small group she wanted to take to the mall first, which consisted of Original, Actor, Grayscale, RF, and Reboot.

"Listen, this mall is... special." she explained. "I call it the 'Interdimentional Mall', as alternate universes come to shop without having to be looked at weirdly. It's pretty much a normal mall, but without cops or normal people. We'll probably end up seeing the Julie's and possibly even some of my alternates or close friends. Usually, only people who have either died already, those who have met their alternatives, or those who are criminals and I know quite well."
she paused, taking a deep breath as she continued.
"I've somehow managed to create this dimension, so I'm kind of the master of it. I don't really understand it yet, but I do know that only certain people can access it like the Seven Deadly Sins, Seraphim, certain Overlords, Lucifer + Lillith, plus pretty much anyone that can open a portal to it. Sometimes, there are randoms who manage to get in by accident, and I decide whether or not they're dangerous and can't come again." she stands there awkwardly for a moment.
"..Like I said, I barely understand how to control it or how I created this dimension."

".. Please tell me you're a scientist or something similar." RF begged with his eyes.

"I have a whole ass lab in my basement."

"Holy shit."

"Let's just go to the mall now -" Milky smiled, opening a portal as tall as her in front of the couch.

"I do know that the portals are stable." She chuckled as they filed in with RF carrying Grayscale and Actor.
"DONT BURN MY HOUSE DOWN-"
She shouted at no one in particular as she entered through the portal.

It honestly was just a basic mall. JC Penny, Macy's, Hot Topic, Bath & Body Works, etc. It was pretty empty, besides a couple of Imps and a handful of Hellhounds. Reboot pretty much yelled out to Actor, (even though they were standing next to each other)
"Race you to the food court!" And took off with Actor walking behind him.

"I guess we should follow-" Milky chuckled as she picked up Original while RF carried Grayscale.

"Why exactly did you take us here?"

"To be completely honest, you all smell." She shifted Grayscale to her shoulders as she spoke.
"Besides, I don't have anyone to spend my money on. My own siblings prefer Kayoka to me after I raised them." her voice cracks slightly, but she couldn't really hide how upset she was. RF placed a hand on her shoulder as he let her carry Original as well, who snuggled into her. They walked in silence for a bit until they caught up to Reboot and Actor, who had already ordered Auntie Ann's and were stuffing their faces.

"We sho-" Reboot gets cut off by Milky.

"Don't talk with your mouth full."
She sighed, smiling softly now as she placed down Grayscale and Original. Even without her siblings, she felt like she was still in a real family.
"Besides, we're gonna just go to every store. I don't mind paying, so grab anything you'd like."
she placed a hand on her hip, still smiling as she straightened her posture. Reboot finally swallowed his food,

"Really?!" He beamed as Actor kicked him under the table.
"I-I mean you don't have to -"

"I insist." Her smile then faded into a scowl as she peered behind them.
"I'll, uh.. Be right back." RF could see a smug looking succubus walking towards them as Milky headed towards her. Actor whipped out his phone,

"I'm not missing another one of her fights." he smirked as the two of them argued, both throwing smug insults at each other while the other demon had a smug smirk plastered on her face.

"Listen to me succubitch, I don't give a shit how many body guards you have. I could easily rip your smug ass apart right now, but I have people with me." Milky sneered, leaning into her face.

"Oh please, you wouldn't lay a finger on me with those guys around." The succubus took a step back. "And get the hell out of my face, your breathe smells like a rotting body."

"Oh, maybe because I EAT HUMANS?!" she stepped forwards, exhaling in her direction. The succubus gagged.

"Get her the hell away from me, Tony." A tall black hellhound appeared from behind the succubus and picked up Milky. She glanced over at RF, pointing at Grayscale and Original and then closing her eyes for a couple of seconds. RF told them to close their eyes, as Milky pulled out a small knife and sliced open the Hellhound's back until it dropped her. She kicked the succubus into a store, then wiped the blood off and ran back over.

"Y'all saw nothing, let's go. Come on, leave the food or take it with us-" She picked up Grayscale and Original, then jogged to the closest store. (which was a Hot Topic)

After about 4 hours, they headed home. It was dark, so almost everyone went to bed. Opposite had passed out on the couch, while Watcher sat next to him and watched a true crime documentary. Milky and RF put all the bags onto the ground, and then he took everyone upstairs for bed.

"Hey, you good?" she tilted her head, sitting down between the two.

"Yeah, I just wanted to make sure you all got home safe." Watcher smiled as the Viewers surrounded her.

"I'm guessing he wanted the same?"

"Probably." Watcher chuckled, "There's one thing that Opposite and the Viewers have in common. Can you guess what that is?"

"Uhh... They're both red?" She blushed a bit, glancing over to Opposite and wrapping her arm around his shoulder. He snored a bit in response, flopping over towards her.

Watcher started to giggle. "They both like you and your company. You really should spend more time with him anyway. I'm sure he'd enjoy it and maybe even smile."

"Yeah.." She smiled more as she leaned her head onto Opposite's, curling up slightly.

"G'night."

"Good night, neighbor."
