[Senri really showed up in Mayfield at a bad time. Not that he knew the difference. The first night he spent camping out on his front lawn, until drone mom invited him inside. Since then, he's actually been a fairly model son. In that he just does everything she tells him to. This time she has sent him on a confusing errand though. She wants him to

[heartstar_blues]

[Just as lost, though he really shouldn't be.

Frowns at the kid walking around.]

You looking for something?

[1stonthreatdown]

[Stares for a moment, then nods. Yes, he is looking for something. He just doesn't know what.]

[heartstar_blues]

What are you looking for?

[He doesn't know better.]

[1stonthreatdown]

[He shrugs. And then holds up the list. It's really just a simple grocery list.]

[heartstar_blues]

[He blinks at it a moment... frowning. It takes him longer than it should. Then he nods.]

☠☠☠☠, I used to work at that place. Want help? I'd love to get payback on the manager...

[1stonthreatdown]

[He nods. Help is definitely something he needs right now. And this guy seems to know where he's supposed to go. That payback comment sails riiight over Senri's head though.]

[heartstar_blues]

[It takes a bit to get oriented, but as soon as The Captain finds the right street he'll lead the boy into the grocery store. Pausing only a moment before glaring down at the list.]

I think I can help you find some of this before I kick someone's ☠☠☠☠ teeth in.

[1stonthreatdown]

[Hmm.... he wonders if he should be concerned... No, clearly not. This guy is helping him, which means that he's good. So anyone he's beating up is...bad. That's how that works, right? He nods again and remembers his manners this time.]

.......Thanks.

[And then follows the Captain into the grocery store.]

[heartstar_blues]

[Grabs a cart and starts on this little mission.

This would be a lot of wandering down aisles lost. Some things on the list he knew, others he had to match words on the paper to labels on the items.

So it's a slow process.]

What the ☠☠☠☠ is wrong with the handwriting chicken scratch...

[Sadly, it's not the handwriting's fault.]

[1stonthreatdown]

[Oh, so the lady had wanted him to bring back food. Now it makes sense. He'll follow the captain around, simply trusting that everything is correct. Seriously, the Captain could just be all 'It says to buy two bottles of whiskey and get wasted with the first guy you see.' and Senri would believe him.]

[heartstar_blues]

[If only The Captain was that clever.

Though it may be noted that he is getting more and more frustrated with this grocery run when he finds things that stump him.

Soon enough he declared the job done and handed the cart to the kid.]

☠☠☠☠ it, that's good enough. Go buy the food, I am going to talk to my old boss.

[Pulling a metal can from the shelf and testing it's weight.]

[1stonthreatdown]

[Nods. Smiles. He's really grateful that a nice guy came to help him. A thought occurs. He'll want to remember him later. But his book is gone... But maybe he can do the same thing with another book? But he'll need a reminder. He picks up another can of whatever the captain is holding, and tears off the label. There. That should do it. Time to go buy the groceries.]

[heartstar_blues]

[The Captain misses the gesture, not that he'd know what to make of it anyways.

Leaving the kid behind to possibly go and ruin a drone's day.]

[1stonthreatdown]

[Leaves with his groceries, oblivious to drone torment.]

[Enjoy being the only person in Mayfield that Senri can reliably remember for more than an hour at a time.]
