“I think so. Do you like the color?” He asked, balancing the box precariously on his head with a small giggle.

Astral laughed just a bit.
"Yes, it looks wonderful on you!" Astral smiled. He was having fun, he had to admit.

“Thennnnn let’s get this one!” He said, tossing the box into the cart. “We need anything else?”

(psssst I did a thing @Icefire you tooooo)

(okie back to the rp–)

"Not that I can think of! Anything in particular you'd like? We can always go to more stores if you want." Astral smiled some, humming softly as he returned to Simon's side.

((:0 cool))

He shook his head before remembering something. “Ooh yes!” He said excitedly, bouncing on the balls of his feet.

"Oh?" Astral was surprised by Simon's sudden eagerness. "What is it?" he smiled, glad to see Simon doing well.

“Cat treats! That’s another place we have to stop by at before we head back home. C’mon, they’re in this aisle over here.” He said, tugging on the other’s hand.

"Cat… treats..?" Astral raised an eyebrow as he let Simon lead him along. "Simon, what exactly are you planning?"

“Well I normally try and feed all the stray cats I see so I’m basically their dad now. So I just wanted to stop by and say hi to my babies. If that’s okay with you.” He briefly looked back at the other, hoping he’d say it was okay.

"Yes, it's totally fine! That's really sweet of you, actually." Astral smiled some, walking with Simon to the pet care isle.

“Thank you. I guess we’re just a lot alike, they don’t have anyone to take care of them and I usually don’t either. So I guess it’s kind of a way for me to feel better about my own situation by helping someone else.” He rambled on absentmindedly as he looked through the aisle.

Astral hummed some, nodding along.
"Well, I'm sure they appreciate it, too." He couldn't help but think of Simon like that sometimes. A stry he could use as he wanted. Still, the man had gotten to his soft spot, seeing how he could finally give Astral the thing he wanted most.

He found the bag he’d been looking for after another second and picked it up, skipping back over to Astral and dropping it in the cart. “Okay I’m ready to go then!”

Astral chuckled some when Simon skipped back over.
"Alrighty, let's go pay then." He really didn't know how exactly to do this, of course.

Simon figured as much. “Come on, follow me.” He said, walking towards the self checkout area in the front.

Following close behind, smiling some, Astral hummed to himself.
"You're going to show me what to do," he said.

“Okay. It’s not that hard once you get the hang of it.” He said, starting to check them out once they’d reached the register.

Astral watched Simon a moment, picking up a hoodie and copying him.
"Huh." he chuckled some at his own naivety.

Simon was very amused by seeing Astral amazed at something that was so normal to him. “You really don’t come down here much do you?”

(uwu thank you XD)

"No, not really. Not for things like this." Astral laughed lightly.

Simon chuckled, continuing to scan and bag the items until none were left. “Can I see some money please?” He asked Astral.

"Right, sure." Astral pulled out one of the rolls, smiling a bit.
"This enough?"

“Yeah that should be good.” He said, starting to pay. He hummed softly as he did so, enjoying the simple task. “And we’re all done.” He announced, picking up the bags and handing Astral the change.
