And so, they all brought bags of things they'd squealed over...
"Hehe! I never knew so many cool shops would all be so close together! This is sooo funnn!" Luna went on with a few bags in her hands.
"Aaaand that's half our life savings gone...." Echo muttered, trying not to admit she regretted steal- buying... *clears throat* buying the ruby sword.
"I regret nothing," Eclipse grinned with a bag full of things that would instantly frame her as a murderer.
"CAUSE IT WASN'T YOUR MONEY!!" Echo argued.
"Some of it was my money," Eclipse counter-argued.
"You didn't have to get me the necklace, Luna...." Yurio mentioned shyly.
"But it was perfect for youuuu!" Luna fangirled.
"Did you get anything, Yurio?" Echo asked.
"Er! N-no... nothing really," Yurio replied, seeming a little flustered, quickly shoving his hands in his pockets.
"You wanna know what I got?" Aki offered, dragging out the 'I'.
"If I wanted to know, I would have asked," Echo grumbled.
"I GOT KAWAII CAT EARS!! THEY'RE NEKO NEKO AMAZING!!" Galaxy called.
"I DIDN'T ASK!!" Echo hissed.
"What did you get then, Echo?" Yurio wondered.
"A sword......." Echo mumbled.
"...... they let you buy a sword?" he questioned.
"No......." Echo replied.
.......
"I also got materials for new clothes!" she beamed.
"That's... great..." Yurio replied.
"Oh! Does that mean you'll finally make me my own maid's outfit? The one work lent me is so not my style," Eclipse complained.
"GO TO HELL!! I ain't making you a damn thing!!" Echo yelled.
"I got scented candles!" Atomu interrupted.
"....... why???" Yurio questioned.
"So I can burn them!!" Atomu announced.
"Oh........." Yurio mumbled with concern.
...............
Suddenly a growl could be heard...(!!!) from Leo's tummy.
"I need to regenerate...." Leo translated.
"How bout we go find a place to grab lunch?" Luna suggested.
"I know just the place!" Echo giggled.
...
"So this is McDucfries?" Atomu questioned as they sat at a table in the ... 'restaurant' McDucfries.
"Yuuupp! I used to visit with my parents," Echo mentioned as someone came over with their food.
"FFFOOOOOODD!!" Atomu cheered.
"Wait, so you've been here before?" Luna asked.
"Yeah, when I was younger. My village made weapons and other metalwork for the city. They'd travel here with me to deliver the trade," Echo explained.
"Why would the city buy weapons?!!!" Yurio asked with great concern.
"'Tis a mystery," Echo shrugged.
"Actually, Lucea's magical lure has led to a lot of people trying to invade. The shores of this city were a war zone during the Golden Age," Eclipse explained.
