A train, a bus, and a short walk later the medley crew arrive at the furniture store, it's dark blue walls and large yellow letters beckoning to them.

*its, and I think you meant motley?

Also, the fiery bird won't be going inside.

Oooooh!

Cassander's sword had been disguised to look like an old-fashioned cane. It drew glances, but at least he wasn't told to leave it at the door.

"Did anyone bring any offerings?" He asked.

[Trutharchivist he/him]

Jack shook his head, still unable to grasp the world. "You only go flying around once," he mumbled, "and somehow hundreds of years pass. Who knew?" He kept following everyone, and his feathery cloak drew quite a few stares.

[Condensation she/her]

Bye! Have a good time!

[Channelknight Fadran]

"Are you not coming?" Cassander asked.

Recall that the entire reason why they're going to Ikea is for sanctuary

Oh, I thought we were at the library?

Furniture, blue, and yellow mean 'Ikea'

"Wait. You know, I probably should of asked this earlier but why did magical creatures persist in supermarkets when they disappeared everywhere else?"

Hah sorry, wasn't really paying attention I guess.

Never mind, I'm coming with you, Cadence said. What's it like inside?

"They didn't." Cassander replied.

Unless they did. Did they?

You said every Costco was lead by a devil. Did you just mean after everything returned or...?

I mean... I could make up some worldbuilding-y reasons for why all department stores were continued through the ages without magic and say that in ye olden days they were controlled by this that or whatever... or we could say that the magical soul of the monster or whatever was always bound to these places... or we could just say after everything returned and that these magical monsters are just really fast at conquering territory.

Ah, alright.

"Oh. Some fast devils then- I wonder what attracts them to Costcos specifically?"

[Channelknight Fadran]

"It's not in a devil's nature to work by halves." Cassander replied. "Massive stockpiles of supplies are exactly the sort of places that would attract them."

Quote

So which one should we go with?

I'm back...
Ah, this thread is still arguing about Costco...

"Y-you seem like you can kill them alright," Kreshnik said. "You dealt with a rather indestructable lion pretty good."

[Channelknight Fadran]

"Nemeans are by no means indestructable. Devils, on the other hand, are a much tougher lot." Cassander entered the Ikea, looking around the area.

[Knight of Iron she/they]

Kreshnik fidgeted with the buttons of his suit nervously. "Th-this is quite big. And I smell meat."

[Channelknight Fadran]

"The meatballs are of human make. Feel free to take as many as you ike." Cassander continued looking around. "The reason I am here is to speak to the store's patron."

[Knight of Iron she/they]

"I d-don't have modern money," Kreshnik replied.

[Channelknight Fadran]

Cassander handed him a crispy Jackson. "You can get plenty with this. Take the others with you, if they want to come."

[Knight of Iron she/they]

Kreshnik took the green paper and then wandered over to where the meatballs smelled the strongest. He stood in line, watching a person order, then walked up to the cashier, mimicking what the person had done. He glanced around at the pictures for a bit. The cashier looked up to him expectantly, perhaps a bit impatient.

"Your order?"

"...D-do you have blood?"

Grace rushes over to Kreshnik, and starts speaking hurriedly to the cashier. "Sorry! He's, ah, new here. Also the world is ending so I would go find your family and get somewhere safe. Have a nice day!"

She drags the vampire away and says "For an ancient vampire, that was rather stupid. Also give me that."

She swipes the money out of Kreshnik's hand, stuff it in her pocket, pulls out a £20 banknote and puts it in his hand.

"Sorry, I... n-never get out much, anyways. And t-to be fair, there was some r-r-red-looking stuff on some of the food."

Cadence walked into the store and made a beeline for Grace. Hi help everyone's looking at me do they know I burned down a building?
