[ Her eyebrows tug toward one another. ]

I could teleport us away. I've gotten better at directing myself to places I want to go to. We could run away if it got dangerous...

We wouldn't have to run. I can take care of him. [ Temporarily, at least, though a voice in the back of her mind reminds her that it could be permanently, if she wanted. ] If anything happens, I'll just put him to sleep. Or make him run away.

[ They're coming up on the convenience store, which may or may not stall the conversation. That, or the conversation's going to stall movie night. Are they talking about this only to go home and act like there's no suspicion? How hypothetical is all of this? ]

Hopefully it won't be an issue.

[ Sasha picks up the pace so she can go ahead and grab the door for Laurie, pulling it open and allowing her to step inside first before she follows. ][ She glances around the store for the machine Laurie told her about. ]

Ahh, it's so nice and cool in here. Maybe we should hang out a bit here.

Thanks. [ For the door opening, that is! The machine's along the back wall, by the ATM, and Laurie heads there first. ] Yeah. We can pick the movie first, and then look around for snacks. Maybe we should have an ice cream while we're here.

I hope the clerk's open to loiterers.

[ Sasha is scoping out the shelves in the back, suddenly bending over and peeking through the lower shelves at random before she gestures for Laurie to come over. ]

If we sit down here the clerk won't spot us!

[ The shelf is high enough to keep them covered and there's a blind spot on the mirror above that doesn't catch them seated on the floor of the aisle. ]

[ Laurie steps forward from the rental machine to scope Sash'a hiding place. It would definitely keep them concealed, but... ] Do you think she'd be suspicious if we didn't come up to the counter for a while?

And we'll have to pay first anyway, right?

She might not notice for a while.

[ A mischievous grin. ]

As long as we don't take anything out of the store... we can say we were weak and famished.

[ ... Well, sure, if they just make sure to pay for whatever they open, maybe that's not totally against the rules. And if it becomes an issue, there are certain ways that she can earn sympathy in their favor. Finally, she gives the whole thing a 'what the heck' shrug. ]

Right. Let's grab what we want, then.
