Pol emptied his backpack onto the kitchen table, laying out his supplies. He sighed as he realized he forgot fertilizer.
"That's kinda important," he muttered. Grabbing his empty bag, he left his house again and rushed back to the hobby store. Just as he arrived, he noticed a car pull up. Huh,I'm not the only one out and about, then.

They headed straight for the dairy section and stood there, tapping their index finger to the curve of the chin as they tried to recall what brand of milk they had last purchased. "Maybe the brand with the blue cap..?" Váli trailed off and heaved a sigh. They reached out and grabbed a random milk jug and placed it in the cart, and then guided the cart down the aisle. "What else did I need?" they muttered to them-self as they scanned the rows of macaroni-and-cheese and other pasta products.

Pol hurried to the gardening section again, finding the fertilizer with ease.
"Is there anything else I need?" He pondered this for a moment. There was no use rushing home only to come back yet again. "Oh!" Pol suddenly remembered. He'd wanted a funnel to help fill the mini pots. Satisfied that he'd remembered correctly, Pol made his way over to the cooking isles and began searching for a funnel.

Váli snatched one of the packages of macaroni-and-cheese and tossed it into the cart next to the milk jug. They sighed and pushed the cart down the aisle, heading toward the cooking aisles. "I think I need a new skillet..." they trailed off and tapped their finger to their chin again as they turned and started down the aisle. There was another person, but they ignored them. They didn't enjoy talking to others when shopping, but occasionally they would.

Pol searched and searched, but he just couldn't seem to find a funnel. He looked up as another person came down the aisle. I wonder if they know where I could find a funnel. Taking a deep breath, Pol walked over.
"Excuse me," he said. "I'm really not familiar with this section of the store. Would you by any chance be able to tell me where I might find a funnel?" Inwardly, he cringed. He was terrible at talking to people, let alone asking for help.

{I'm going to have to go soon, so I might not reply right away.}

Váli bit back a frustrated sigh as they heard them speak up. "Ah, it should be down at the end of the aisle." she replied and pointed down the aisle, scanning the shelves. There were pots and pans, but no skillets in sight. "Skillets..." they murmured and tapped their chin. "Where would they be?" Váli asked themself and frowned.

"It should be down at the end of the aisle." The other person responded, pointing. She appeared to be a young woman.
Pol quickly retrieved the funnel, baffled that he had missed it.
"Thank you," he said to the girl. He shuffled in place for a minute then decided he'd ask another question. "Do you- do you live in the area? I'm, ah, trying to meet the neighbors." Pol chuckled akwardly.

{I gtg, but I'll reply asap}

Caspian walked around town. He didn't know where he was going, but he figured he should go somewhere. His mom was off studying birds, just like always. Or she ran away. Caspian figured she would one of these days, her head was always in the clouds with those birds she loved so much. Caspian had to get out of the house. They were new to this new town, and he didn't know their house too much yet. He had explored almost every inch of the small house and he got bored. Caspian wanted to go meet his neighbors, surprisingly. He usually wasn't the type to go out and make friends. He had just exited his house and was looking around. He didn't see too many people wandering around, so he just walked across the street to the house in front on his. He knocked on the door, and a young person maybe a little bit older then him opened the door. They had long, straight caramel-red hair and lightly tanned skin with slanted brown eyes. They wore boyish clothes, a big work shirt tucked into high-waisted pants and big shoes.
"Hi!" They said, smiling. "Who are you?"
"I'm Caspian." He said. "I, uh, just moved in across the street. Just trying to get to know the neighbors."
"Well, I'm Strawberry." They said. "It's nice to meet you."

Juniper and David sat in the kitchen eating breakfast; the last of a box of cheerios.
"I have to go and get some stuff from the store, are you gonna come with me?" Juniper asked.
David nodded, scooping up the last of his soggy cereal and leaving to get dressed.
Once both of them were ready, Juniper and David started walking downtown.

"So, uh," Caspian cleared his throat. "Do you know any other people our age around the neighborhood?"
"Not personally, but I know there's a guy around your age a little around the block from you. I think there's a younger girl a few houses away from me as well." Strawberry shrugged. "I haven't really spoken to them yet, though."
