We're going shopping [KYRIE/TANYA/CHRIS/ALICE]

Oleg whistled as he went across the busy streets of the district, smiling to himself as he then stopped infront of the largest mall in the whole island. It was a shoppers dream, and a gamers paradise, in it's own way. He swiped out his PGS, quickly sending Kyrie a message. "buying some gamesphere games. ya got any wishes?" He then headed inside the store.
Once he reached inside, he had to go trough a few rolling stairs to get up to the fourth level, where most of the electronics resided. He then rubbed his hands together, heading over to the gaming and console section as he begun to flip trough all the possibilities.

Tanya wondered why she hadn't been here more often than she had. Maybe it was because she got everything she needed at the academy. It wasn't like she was obliged to go to the town to do anything. In fact, she had a lot of fun in the academy doing pokemon battles and learning Battle Tactics. She'd have to reserve her opinion on Breeding for now. As of the moment though, she found the class to be mind-boggling and the teacher wasn't her favorite in the academy.
In any case, she thought she might send a gift back to her brothers. They never really patched their relationship up 100% and she felt guilty about leaving them behind. Since they had a Game Sphere back at home, she thought that buying a new game for them would be a nice gesture. Probably with an apology letter and a proper explanation to her reasons for leaving.
Entering the electronics section, Tanya drifted through the merchandise, trying to find something suitable for her brothers. As she did so, she noticed Oleg was in the gaming and consoles section as well. Admittedly, Tanya wasn't too surprised this happened. If she was to see him or Kyrie anywhere outside the academy, it was probably here or the arcade.
"What you looking for Oleg?" Tanya asked, moving behind him and whispering in his ear. She couldn't resist an opportunity to mess with him.

Kyrie was already in the business district when her PGS sang with a new message. She had just finished up delivering something to one of her father's business partners, walking out of a large, fancy building to look at her handheld. She switched it on, balancing when Mammon jumped up on her shoulder. Tapping on the letter icon, Kyrie read the message; pausing before sending back, 'Yeah, I'm in the area so I'll go look. I want some PGS games too.' She had been rather curious of this one series for the PGS, the latest one like a farming simulator but added with some character interactions and rpg. She had played normal farming simulators before, enjoying the little musical tunes it had.
With that the girl pocketed the electronic, walking on over to the mall area. Mammon stayed on her shoulder as the girl pulled out a piece of paper. On it was a list of things, games mostly but also some merchandise her mother wanted her to buy for her. Alas most of it was make-up products and some other things like unique seasonings for cooking, though she couldn't quite understand why her mother wanted stuff like that. The woman didn't cook after all. Well her mother was an eccentric person who liked to torture her daughter by sending her into vastly crowded places. Even her father didn't do that, sure he would send her to help with his business sometimes but in the long run he never actually made her do something she would absolutely hate.

The shopping mall looked spectacular with some of the shoppers going in and out of the stores, trying to get the latest shoes and whatever dresses they wanted for a dinner party. Actually, there was the Goldenrod City that had a huge shopping department for every trainer that wanted to buy stuff. Even the Pokemarts didn't stand a chance, but they still did their business. Still, the shopping mall was actually the equivalent of a shopping department and it had anything that a student or trainer would need.
She held the Skrelp in her arms where he would be able to see better. Apparently, he didn't like being inside the warm confinement of a Pokeball, not yet anyway. There was a food court and an arcade, but she didn't feel interested in any of it. And then, the game shop where literally hundreds of games are sold there. Upon entrance, there seemed to be familiar faces just browsing the games. Although she hadn't played video games, but willing to learn how to. The poisonous seahorse looked at the games curiously before watching some ten-year boy play on a console with a racing car game playing on the screen. Those games seemed to be all the rage now.

So... after all those encounters, Chris figured it was kind of about time to try and find a way to ignore her without it being blatantly obvious... but how... well that should be pretty easy, music, that should work... but where to get the necessary items for that... well there was the mall in the city, guess that's where he's headed. Chris found himself heading to the mall in his more casual clothing (the clothing he's wearing in the pic on the profile... if you don't know...) instead of his uniform, with Dusk and Argos following alongside him, as was the norm at this point.
Chris found himself heading to the section designated for electronics... specifically the section for games, gamers always seem to have good headsets and headphones from what I've seen, and they do often seem to be sold in these kinds of places, so it made sense in a way to come here for that purpose. it didn't take long for him to spot other students there... well... great, more people, although thankfully it seemed as if Seria wasn't there, meaning that I could handle things without her reminding me of the pain she caused.

Oleg practically jumped a little as Tanya suddenly whispered to his ear, turning around with a slightly stern look before lightening up to a small smirk. "Oh you little rascal." Oleg punched her on the shoulder, looking around the store before noticing his PGS was vibrating. He took it out and opened it, opening the messages section as he smiled slightly, looking at the message and then placing the PGS back into his back pocket.
"So, you looking for some games too? I never knew you wave dormers had a gamesphere too." He nodded slightly to her as he then turned around, beginning to cycle trough the games again. He then reached his hand out to a rhytm game, staring at it for a while with disgust before placing it back. "Egh, made by Art Electronics." He then reached deeper back into the shelf, pulling out a seeming action game, looking at it before nodding to himself.

Tanya giggled at Oleg's reaction, winking cheekily at him. Oleg was a lot of fun to mess with and most of the time, he was a decent person. She kept the battle Oleg had with Seria at the back of her mind though. That sort of stuff rubbed Tanya the wrong way, but she already talked to him about it.
"I don't have one on me, but my family has one back at home and I was looking to get one game for my brothers." Tanya explained, putting her hands on her knees as she looked for potential Gamesphere games she could get for her brothers. There seemed to be quite a variety and Tanya wasn't really sure what to buy.
"Oleg, you're a guy right?" Tanya asked, already knowing that answer to that question as she continued to browse through games. "If you were like 10 to 12 years old, what Gamesphere game would you want to buy?" He was a guy, so he'd probably have a better idea about what to buy than she would. They probably were in the same market after all. She looked hard at all the games, trying to find a game that would be most suitable. Hopefully she could gain the forgiveness of her brothers this way.

It hadn't taken Kyrie very long to get to the mall when she had the brilliant idea to have Pythius be her ride. The zoroark was like one big, fluffy horse whole jumped on buildings that he could reach which gave them even more shortcuts than she would have if just walked. And so here the girl was, bunny-hood up to shade her face against the vast population. She kept Pyhius out and Mammon trotted at her side as the triple went in. The first place the girl went was some beauty store, asking the clerks to grab what they could off the list she showed them and then having Pythius carry the stinky products on their way to the next store. The game store. Her one salvation in this unholy place called 'the mall'. She made the fox wait outside before heading in, spotting three of four students that she knew. Well, technically; she knew all four of them but one was only because she battled against her one time.
Dismissing the less known, Kyrie made her way over to the duo she did know: Tanya and Oleg. Although she wasn't trying to be sneaky the girl couldn't help but try to sneak up on the Wave girl, seeing as how this place was like a rarity for her with all her sunshine enjoyment. Already a light walker, the girl came close enough to hear her ask a question. When she was close enough, the girl tried to poke her head over the other girl's shoulder. "If it's boys at that age, anything with explosions and excitement usually does the trick." She backed up, popping a watermelon lollipop into her mouth, "Yo."

And then, someone familiar had entered the store with a dark fox of some sort. That person was the girl she had battled once and assuming that this girl came here for buying some video games. That was fine and there were some more familiar people that she met at a party once also browsing for video games. The seahorse seemed to be interested on eyeing those video games, but also noticed a dark fox. While the day was fresh and the shoppers were going in and out, she seemed to be occupied with browsing for some interesting games to look at, just in case if she wanted to buy a game console or anything. Middle class families probably had some money to buy one console, but the rich could buy one easily, considering that they had a whole lot of money. She wasn't sure if she had the money to buy a console for herself, it seemed like the price was steep and most people couldn't afford that type of thing.

instead of heading right on in, Chris found himself listening in on the conversation that was being had... games... fair play, who could hate video games and entertainment like that? actually there probably are quite a few but let's not mention those. Mentally he was debating what to get in terms of headphones, given there were certainly quite a few type's that could be useful.
Dusk found herself smiling faintly to herself upon noticing Mammon's presence, of all the Pokémon she wouldn't mind meeting here, it would have been Mammon, given how things had gone before between the two earlier when the two were speaking back in the dorm, although this place isn't as... private... as the dorm, so she had to not over do it. She walked over towards the Espeon, a faint smile etched across her face as she greeted him, the wording go along the lines of 'well... hello again Mammon, honestly didn't expect to see you here'.

Oleg was just about to answer as Kyrie answered, smirking to himself a bit. "What she said. Though something a bit more smart could work as well." He tapped his chin for a moment as he looked trough the games before grabbing two. "Here we go." He then held them out to Tanya. "One's a game about being a thief. Aimed for younger than yours, but eh, I enjoyed it even at a older age." He then looked to the other one. "Mech action, lots of explosions, still family friendly enough to gain a safe rating. Recommended."
He then turned his attention to Kyrie, scratching the back of his head. "I was thinking about getting us this one war game, plus at the very least one RPG. You see anything you'd like?"

Tanya let out a loud yelp when she heard a sudden voice in her ear. Jumping, she turned around and gave a cynical frown to the presence of Kyrie. After a moment of pretending to act annoyed, Tanya chuckled lightly and waved at her friend.
"Something with big explosions..." Tanya mused, tapping on her chin as she watched Oleg bustle through the Gamesphere section. Tanya listened keenly as Oleg talked about both of the games he had picked. Looking at the two, she gave careful consideration for both of them. For a moment.
"Eh I'll buy both." Tanya remarked, taking the two games from Oleg and beaming at him. She was sure that the boys would like at least one of them. Even if they didn't, Tanya liked the sound of the mech game. Explosions were a thing that Tanya couldn't help but find cool. So long as they weren't hurting her pokemon.
Tanya looked around the store, noticing one of the girls that she had met at the party. "Hey there Alice!" Tanya waved, noticing the Skrelp that was with the girl. "You have a Skrelp as well? I actually started off with a Skrelp, but she's now a Dragalge. It's a bit funny how we've got similar pokemon, huh?"

Kyrie looked away with an innocently guilty look plastered on her face, returning the chuckle with a smile. She followed Oleg, browsing the gamesphere section as he picked out two for Tanya. "War and rpg..." the girl echoed, going through the games at the bottom that didn't have their faces turned to the audience. "Shooter war or rpg war? For an rpg I have a few in mind like Dark Alliance and Eternal Darkness, though that last one is more of a horror." Kyrie hummed, going through a few more games before putting them back. "I'm going to add a party game." With that the girl grabbed a multi-party game.
While his trainer was browsing, Mammon jumped from her shoulder and sat idly next in an empty space. His ears flicked toward a pokemon's cry, looking to see a familiar face. His face brightened with an espeon smile, 'Dusk! Pleasure to see you here.' Meanwhile, Pythius continued to sit outside the store, bag of products beside him as people would glance and sometimes go to pet him. He did notice someone looking at him from within the store, giving the mysterious figure a friendly zoroark smile.

A voice managed to pierce through the silent atmosphere and it was Tanya, the girl she met at the party once. She had taken notice of her Skrelp and mentioned that she had one evolved into a Dragalge. "Hi Tanya. Yes, it's a bit funny that we have the same Pokemon, but it is an interesting coincidence." Morgan looked the games before looking up to see a dark-haired girl had taken notice of him. From what she read, Dragalge seemed to be a powerful Pokemon, not to mention that it had the potential to use its special moves effectively. Alas, she had to focus on evolving the others as well as her Skrelp, one at a time. And the purple cat-like Pokemon was with the girl too, just looking at the games. While the dark fox was plucking out some games for the purple-haired girl. Maybe later, she could buy a console when she had the money to buy expensive things.

So... They're all here discussing games, makes sense given it's a games store... Honestly Chris had to admit the 'Eternal Darkness' sounded interesting, he was rather difficult to scare, so it'd be a nice challenge and change of pace... But... He doesn't have the necessary console to play it so no point in going for it... He's here for headphones not games consoles. Anyway... Guess he probably should have a look before they all swarm the counter and begin buying things.
Dusk didn't head on in right away, instead she found herself smiling up at Mammon, she clearly was happy to see the Espeon, which made sense due to how friendly the two are to each other... Why Dusk chose Mammon of all pokemon to get along with... Really don't know, guess fate just works in mysterious ways. Dusk let off a cry in response to Mammon, it was good to know she wasn't the only one that was pleased to see the other, anyway, the cry was something along the lines of 'pleasure to see you as well Mammon...'.
