(open mingle) it's not the mall without a spencer's!
WHO: Kamui (metafictions), Wrench (wrenchedup), and you!
WHAT: A very silly mingle for hunkering down in the Spencer's.
WHERE: the city mall
WHEN: sometime during the August event
WARNINGS: Suggestively shaped bachelorette party items, will update for anything else.
After some hours of confusion in the dark, it becomes clear that they're all going to be stuck in the mall for a while. Naturally, the need for a safe home base arises next.
Enter: the Spencer's Gifts on the mall's second floor. It's near enough to emergency lighting to almost be visible, but more importantly, it's full of enough food and supplies to… sort of make it work, when it comes to hunkering down for a bit. Far preferable to sleeping on one of the mall benches, anyway.
The shop is stocked like pretty much any other Spencer's in the mall in 00's North America:
Cases and rows of alternative fashion, from spiked wristbands and chokers to body jewelry and gauges, line the shop. If you're especially enterprising they could be repurposed as a makeshift weapon. Orrrr you can just keep your cash in that chain wallet
Pop culture merch is also highly represented at the Spencer's. There's stacks and stacks of anime t-shirts, funny graphic tees, and novelty bobbleheads and other figures.
Careful going to the back of the shop, though: that's where all the adult items are kept though a whole lot of it might be already raided by Wrench, ask about that later.
Most importantly is the construction of what has been lovingly (oocly) dubbed as… ~ The Naruto Fort ~ or The Nort for short:
Welcome to The Nort.
Whether you’re helping construct it, stock it full of goodies, protect it from things that aren’t actually there, or just paying a visit or coming to sleep for the night The Nort can be found occupying one of the aisles close to the entrance.
The tent walls are crafted by strung together nondescript anime t-shirts and weird goth costumes and probably at least one tie dye pot leaf flag. There are tons of novelty pillows in all sorts of odd shapes (yes, there’s probably one that looks like a butt) for you to rest your weary head. There might even be a few throw blankets of everyone’s fav emo band, My Chemical Bromance.

The hat is fine though. He's slouched with a novelty beer pong cup that he's drinking room temperature tap water from. It's a living.
First:] Until we find six magic puzzle pieces and build the key to the secret exit, probably.
[And then:] What's the metaphor?
no subject
[He trails off, fingers tapping idly on the donut cushion. Better not to think about that nice theoretical when they're still stuck.]
Anyway. We've got every lamp we could need, but no electricity, right? I think we have everything we need to work out what's going on in this city. We're just missing some crucial element to putting it all together.

[That sounds like finding the puzzle pieces to him, actually!! But he shakes his head and holds his hands up, acquiescing. He can stand to not be a contrarian about anything. For now.]
What are you thinking, then? What's the big lightbulb we're missing?
