Eluvianii he/him Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 Edwin turned when he heard Shana. "Um, sure. Sounds good." He went after Shana and Ben, hoping not to be third-wheeling.
Lunamor she/her Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 (edited) Ben inhaled quite a bit of stormlight and followed Shana and Edwin into the store. “What should we get first, the stuff for the marshmallows and jellybeans or the dough?” @Eluvianii @Sorana Edited June 20, 2019 by Lunamor

With a place that big, there has to be a library, right? If not, then I will create one book by book. Uh . . . I mean, if that's okay . . ." Evelyn had gotten out of the car, and was now standing next to Cassie, staring in awe at the house. It must be over six times the size of her house. A place like that was sure to have a library, right? She had already read the books she had brought with her several times over. Quote Wait, do we? Because if we don't then I'm staging an intervention.

"Let's start with the marshmallows." She led them to a shelf full of sweets and looked for the marshmallows. Hrabbing some packages she handed them to Edwin and then a few smaller ones full of jelly beans to Ben. "We need flour, olive oil, butter, garlic, salt and pepper. I think we have most of it at home, so maybe let's only fetch maybe two kilo flour, two packages of butter and some garlic?" @Lunamor @Eluvianii
AonEne he/him Posted June 20, 2019 Author Posted June 20, 2019 Quote That's four and a half pounds of flour, if anyone's wondering, and I'm not sure if butter is packaged differently in Europe? Eh, hand-wave it.

James pointed up towards the aisle signs , "Looks like lunch meat and hot dogs are in aisle 20" He noted to Flid. "Usually you can just tell where to look by looking at the signs."

Eh, hand-wave it. Quote Sorry!!! I forgot to translate that, my fault. It's about a pound butter. We are some twenty people in total, based on my friends it should fit the amount of dough she plans to make.
AonEne he/him Posted June 20, 2019 Author Posted June 20, 2019 Quote Hey no it's fine, I'm sorry that this is set in America with our weird system.
Eluvianii he/him Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 Quote Oh yeah, I forgot about the different systems, it felt just natural for me. Edwin nodded. "Sounds good. But that's all in different areas, right? I can get the flour."
Bookish Ocelot she/her Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 Quote I have no idea where Leona is so I’ll ignore her until we arrive at the house Butter over here usually comes in 1 pound (lb) boxes with four sticks inside. A pound of butter is about 2 cups. I think flour is two lbs per bag. Is it true you guys have bagged milk?
AonEne he/him Posted June 20, 2019 Author Posted June 20, 2019 Quote Wait a sec, Ocelot, are you in Europe? On 6/16/2019 at 3:43 PM, BookishOcelot said: "I can't drive yet. I just got my learner's permit." On 6/18/2019 at 4:37 AM, BookishOcelot said: "Or we could get more cake." Leona suggested. 22 hours ago, Wyndlerunner said: "All right guys" James said, "Let's divide and conquer" he began pointing. "Flid and I will get the Hot dogs and buns" he said, "Shana and Ben will get marshmallows and stuff, and Rob will get condiments." @Sorana @Lunamor @Emperor Stick @I think I am here. Looks like she's been participating in their conversation, so she went along, but was one of those not included in James's plan. So you could be with any group, probably.

Bookish Ocelot she/her Posted June 21, 2019 Posted June 21, 2019 Quote No. I’m ‘murican through and through
WrathofaShardKitten Posted June 21, 2019 Posted June 21, 2019 "Should we go in?" Evelyn didn't seem to be asking anyone in particular.
+Sorana she/her Posted June 21, 2019 Posted June 21, 2019 (edited) Quote Yes, we do have bagged milk. Like that: Spoiler So let's just say they buy enough flour and butter Shana shot Ben a worried glance and whispered to Edwin: "Let's stay together. I'm not sure how long he's able to walk. And while I can carry him with some stormlight, that will catch everybodies glances around here." "Or you stay with him, while I fetch the garlic?" @Eluvianii Edited June 21, 2019 by Sorana
Eluvianii he/him Posted June 21, 2019 Posted June 21, 2019 Edwin looked at Ben, he was clearly still at his limit. They were going to need a solution for that as soon as today, but for now... "Leave him to me." he said and went after him. He didn't help him for the time being -Edwin knew in his place he would probably be too proud to accept help-, but stayed ready to catch him if needed.
+Sorana she/her Posted June 21, 2019 Posted June 21, 2019 (edited) Shana hugged him quickly in thanks and then walked off to search the garlic. She found it, still a bit green and young, perfect to be smashed into butter. Smiling she packed some into a bag and then grabbed some cherrys as well. Maybe some strawberries as well. And apples. She liked apples. On her way back to Edwin and Ben she saw some crackers and loaded another two packages on her arms. They were so many and all of them hungry. Crackers never hurt.

Lunamor she/her Posted June 21, 2019 Posted June 21, 2019 Ben smiled at Shana, swaying slightly on his feet. “Now that we’ve got everything, should we meet up with the others so we can pay?” He asked them.

WrathofaShardKitten Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 Evelyn followed Cassie inside, still staring in awe at the huge house.
AonEne he/him Posted June 22, 2019 Author Posted June 22, 2019 "Uncle James?" I called, glancing around.

+Sorana she/her Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 7 minutes ago, Eluvianii said: "I'm all for that but, did we choose a place to meet up?" "Did you get the butter as well?" Shana asked and tried to balance the things she had selected. "And I think we meet them somewhere close to the ceck out counter."
Eluvianii he/him Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 "Yeah." said Edwin showing her the three boxes they had picked. They were supposed to get two but, it was better to be prepared just in case. "Umm, need help with all that?" he said pointing at the delicate tower she held on her hands.
