-=Standing in the middle of the district, a lost look on his face as he looks around at the shops and buildings, shoulders slumped a bit as he stands there=-

I don't have year's income on me, you bastards.

Would be great to actually have it, eh? [walks around with a list of work-related-shopping in one hand, and nearly empty bag in second]

[nameslockon]

I think you missed the point.

[clover_fell]

That's quite likely.

[[ooc: if it was some different idiomatic sense, I couldn't find it online/english failure Dx']]

I'm looking to buy something...special. But everywhere I find something close, it costs too much.

[stops after noticing Lyle, then smiles and approaches, apparently also looking for something]

Are you looking for something?

[nameslockon]

Do I look that lost?

-=Little smile=-

[alle_halle]

Actually, you do. [smiles sheepishly]

[nameslockon]

Naturally. What are you here for?

[fieryredheels]

[Rei is startled, but she still stops anyway.]

Are you alright?

[nameslockon]

-=Manages a grin at her=-

I'm doing wonderfully. My bank account, on the other hand, is sadly lacking.

[fieryredheels]

Out of a job? Or is it just really bad pay?

[innovatedearth]

Why do you need so much money for?

[nameslockon]

-=Rolls his eyes=-

To swim in it.

[innovatedearth]

Interesting new hobby.

[nameslockon]

I'm thinking of buying something, but it happens to be very expensive here.
