EXT. CABIN FEVER – EVENING
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB63ZAVp5Gh
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."
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIAvlyD5dn
K and A both glance at him suspiciously, already sensing something sinister.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CULkCXyed
K (dry)
"Define ‘errands.’"
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eXkWBkneQ
Jason smirks, stuffing his hands into his pockets as they start walking down the cracked sidewalk.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxkx2wdUAI
JASON
"First, the bookstore. Since you two keep complaining about my 'cursed' book collection, I'm giving myself a chance to judge yours."
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSsdvYxSqBQ
A (immediate excitement)
"You mean we get to pick our own books?!"
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOY8CDDYokU
K (grinning with teeth, normal-sized this time)
"Finally. No more 'Twilight' for bedtime threats."
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7nB2tRB3z
JASON (mock offended)
"Hey. ‘Twilight’ built character."
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEDSfuCRfK
K (muttering)
"It built suffering."
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTXEcoffLC
Jason shrugs, unfazed.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xXoBYn9dX
JASON
"Second stop's the medicine store. My home storage is running low after all the crap lately."
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIzCc9g1Pb
A (curious)
"You need a lot of medicine?"
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5Rs0Cw4yT
JASON
"You live with you two. You tell me."
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXfqEiGSoY
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.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHo621Zfd5s
K spins the toothpick between his fingers idly, casting a sideways glance at Jason.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4oLZ45D7sL
K
"If I find something particularly cursed at the bookstore, I'm bringing it back. As a gift."
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18LMZczKUq
JASON (without looking at him)
"If you do, I’m making you read it out loud to A."
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFKc9LEr6L
A (gleeful)
"Story time!"
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFH4qv0zJJX
Jason groans, pulling his jacket tighter around him like it could shield him from the inevitable chaos.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASNBCqfOmB
JASON (under his breath)
"What the hell did I sign up for…"
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaE5LIlHoo
They keep walking, disappearing down the lively street, a crooked little trio against the neon-smeared dusk.
102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65rSh8ejA7
FADE OUT.
