shopping

Kaiba's first order of business, beyond cursing whatever powers might be at this inconvenient intrusion into his life, is to change his wardrobe. Long trench coats and turtlenecks don't exactly suit the island climate. He ruffles through clothing racks, huffing at bright print after bright print.

"Is there anything reasonable here?" he growls, after tossing another cute pair of Squirtle swim trunks aside. But he's soaked in sweat and needs to find something fast.

He eventually settles on a blue vest and black wetsuit, and heads out to the beach. Not that he's interested in joining the group fun, but it's where most seem to be gathered and he needs to know what he's dealing with.

There, he finds a slug-like creature wilting in the heat. That was...a Goomy? He'd learned the name in researching all local dragon types and immediately dismissed it as a weakling, but the poor thing was clearly out of its element. Well...it would be rather unpleasant for the beachgoers if it died, so Kaiba kneels next to it and digs a shallow pool in the sand.

He walks up to someone with an umbrella, frowning. "I'm borrowing this---" Sorry not sorry. He's planting it to shade the little pool.

Later, he takes what little money he has to the food court, where he partakes the strange selection. There are plenty of vegetarian options, of course, strange colas, and even onigiri---or is it?

"Jelly filled donut? This has to be a joke."

Goomy will happily eat it, though. He slithers his way onto Kaiba's lap and slurps it right off his hand, leaving the human to shudder. Just his luck.
