Chapter Text
It was a day like any other. Trying to wake up was a struggle and going to work was agonizing. Clock in, do your job, clock out. Luckily, you got off early. You decided to get yourself something.. nice.
You did save that money up for that album you've been wanting. As you walked into the record store, you stared at someone. Probably a cosplayer? They looked like a bee. Probably someone's fursona.
You continued to mind your own business, looking for the vinyl. Suddenly, the same person tapped your shoulder. “May I.. help you?” “Do you happen to know where Le Tigre would be?” ..That's not a suit, that's just his skin.
His antenna seemed to twitch. “..Hello?” “Oh, yeah.” You motioned over to where the album would be only to see it's empty. “..Huh. It sold out.”
He just shrugged before turning to leave. However you stopped him out of nowhere. “Hey, uh.. do you.. know this area?” “Not.. really, I mean, I just got here.” “..Mind if I help? You seem to be.. wandering.”
He seemed surprised. Most people were staring at him, giving him weird and curious glances. And then there was.. you. Being unnaturally friendly. You were not usually like this.
“..Uh, sure!” “Yeah, let me just.. go buy this.” You quickly ran up to the register. “..Are you with him?” “What?”
They motioned over with the bee humanoid. “..You know what, yeah, I'm showing him around. He's new.” The guy just nodded and gave you your things. You walked back over to Marshall. “Ready to go?”
“..Huh? Wait, you were serious?” “...Yeah.” “..Well, then, yeah. Let's go then.” He gave you a small smile. ..This guy wasn't bad at all.
