"Probably because it looks goth and emo so you wouldn't expect it." She smiled coming up to the store.
"Probably because it looks goth and emo so you wouldn't expect it." She smiled coming up to the store.
"Oh you're right…" he said as they approached "but I'll give it a chance."
"We just ignore the people and I'll show you the nerd stuff. What are you into?" She asked pulling him along into the store.
He chuckled as she pulled him in "Well I'm really into things like Star Wars, Harry Potter, Stranger Things ,that kind of stuff." he responded as they two young adults, one an anthro shifter and the other with a stuffed animal rushed into a Hot Topic store.
She nodded pulling him over to look at the Star Wars stuff. "They have to bobble heads, and T-Shirts, and other junk." She smiled looking at him.
Tempest immediately picked up a baby Yoda POP! Funko figure and his eyes brightened "Oh my gosh look at this thing!"
She giggled some and poked his nose. "Cute, and so is the figure."
A little smile broke across his face as he kissed her nose and spotted the Harry Potter section. "Oh look! What House in Hogwarts would I be in you think?" he asked as he took her hand in his free one, going over to the various wizarding nerd culture items
She bit her lip and thought. "Probably a Hufflepuff." She hummed looking at him and his cute face. "I'm a Slytherin, no doubt."
He took a Hufflepuff letter jacket from the rack "Sweet! Looks like if Hogwarts was modern."
Joanna smiled and giggled. "Basically, I mean you'd look really good in that." She noted mostly to herself.
"You're making me blush!" he chuckled but got that as well and started up front to pay for his things
Joanna picked up a Draco Malfoy POP! figure a decided she'd get it. He was after all one of her favorite characters. "Can you add this to yours'? I'll pay you back." She asked setting it on the counter.
"Yeah sure." He said as he payed, the front worker giving him a glance but said nothing more out of the ordinary.
They walked out Hot Topic with a bag and Tempest whistled a tune, his eye catching a mall piano as they walked
"What was that about?" She asked slipping her hand into his.
"Those pianos are always out of tune." He commented as they walked hand in hand, as happy as he could be.
"What? Oh- no I meant about the employee." She noted laying her head on his arm.
"Oh that wasn't much compared to some reactions in the past. I think people are a little tense with everything happening right now."
"Oh- OK. So what do you want to do now? Bath & Body Works?" She suggested relaxing a bit.
"Oh some self care stuff there!" His tail happily wagged before he shifted back human "I don't wanna knock anything over with that battering ram of a tail." he laughed
Joanna giggled and started pulling him along. "Do you have a favorite Christmas scent?"
"Apple Cider is the best! Change my mind." He chuckled
"I like peppermint anything. But Apple Cider is fine." She shrugged pulling him into the store.
"Oh peppermint!" He smiled happily as he was pulled in and looked around for the scented hand sanitizers
"Whatcha looking for? I was going to look at candles." She smiled, still holding his hand.
