EXT. CABIN FEVER – EVENING
97Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AUI01TVfQ
The trio steps out of the cozy warmth of Cabin Fever and into the amber-tinted streets. Jason stretches his arms over his head, a faint groan slipping out.
A hums a little tune, clutching a plastic bag with leftover pancakes, while K fiddles with a toothpick he stole from the counter.

JASON
"Alright, dynamic disasters. Meal's done. Now we’re running a couple errands."
97Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtdcejvm02
K and A both glance at him suspiciously, already sensing something sinister.
97Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YLnqJCpbW
K (dry)
"Define ‘errands.’"

Jason smirks, stuffing his hands into his pockets as they start walking down the cracked sidewalk.

JASON
"First, the bookstore. Since you two keep complaining about my 'cursed' book collection, I'm giving myself a chance to judge yours."
97Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDAA612OHU
A (immediate excitement)
"You mean we get to pick our own books?!"
97Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGRDDP8yRz
K (grinning with teeth, normal-sized this time)
"Finally. No more 'Twilight' for bedtime threats."
97Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXW26NB5VmT
JASON (mock offended)
"Hey. ‘Twilight’ built character."
97Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWymkD2ktpi
K (muttering)
"It built suffering."
97Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDYqQso1UD
Jason shrugs, unfazed.

JASON
"Second stop's the medicine store. My home storage is running low after all the crap lately."
97Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHD1JZ5v9N8
A (curious)
"You need a lot of medicine?"
97Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2LmJ39AsGs
JASON
"You live with you two. You tell me."
97Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeR9U8blmCZ
They turn the corner. Neon signs flicker and hum overhead as small shops and vendors line the streets, the city still a little restless after the HQ incident but trying to fake normalcy.

K spins the toothpick between his fingers idly, casting a sideways glance at Jason.

K
"If I find something particularly cursed at the bookstore, I'm bringing it back. As a gift."
97Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWBViqiop0
JASON (without looking at him)
"If you do, I’m making you read it out loud to A."
97Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOMyL6KF4Z
A (gleeful)
"Story time!"
97Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOb4EK0MTDx
Jason groans, pulling his jacket tighter around him like it could shield him from the inevitable chaos.
97Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3L36BycDd7
JASON (under his breath)
"What the hell did I sign up for…"
97Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTl3dE5zQNe
They keep walking, disappearing down the lively street, a crooked little trio against the neon-smeared dusk.

FADE OUT.
