Fortunately everyone was able to do their initial forays off of this central aisle, but eventually they'd probs have to go their separate ways to get everything they wanted.
Cameron- "Oh yeah, kinda looks like the helium is down by the popcorn stand. Huh." Tristan- "That's pratty cool, Ru. You ever see a Hodden film? None are so famous."
Cameron generally wandered toward the ballon supply, others slowly went with that flow...

The group walked along, approaching the popcorn cart. Chloë- "Someone want to tie it to my wrist? I'd hate to lose it."
Standing in front of a popcorn cart stood a small figure in a bowler hat. Her lack of heat was disguised momentarily by the hot kernels popping behind her. She widened her eyes, and rushed up to take Chloë's balloon. - ?? "Whoa, you do not want that one."
Chloë- "Aww... Did someone lose it?"
Chloë- "Wait, are you--"
- ?? "Good evening, ladies and gents. Care for a balloon? Got every color of the rainbow." The stranger tapped her foot against a tank of helium.

Ru- "..Well, yes, I've seen a few, we got some subtitled imports too. Sometimes I like watching them just for the imagery... I wonder if Wilhelm was that kind of actor, back in the day... Oh! " He walks up to join Chloe, worried that there was some kind of faux paux going on. "He...hello there. I wouldn't mind a balloon. What's wrong with the black one?" Another vampire they hadn't met?

"The color of revenge is most certainly red. So red, please. Oh. Well, this is unexpected. Helloooo." Babette 'hmmm'd' thoughtfully. What was another creature of the night doing in a shoppy store with a cart of popcorn, of all things?! "Don't tell me that black balloons are some ... vampire gang symbol?"

Allison- "Revenge, hm? Lotta people got that on the mind lately. Doesn't do anyone a lick of good. Life should be about makin' friends, I always say. But if that was a color, I'd have to say it was red indeed." She turned on the helium tank, and brought a balloon to life, tying the knot like a pro. Something was funny about the tank, it was covered in heavy metal stickers and looked a bit more beat up than the typical ShopMart variety. She tied the balloon to a ribbon and passed it off with a cold smile. ?? - "Here ya go, fella."
??- "Ah the black ones are... reserved. Let's say. How about the rest of ya? How about the little lady, want a replacement? What's your favorite color?"
Chloë- "Ah b-blue? Are you a-- a you know... Crowboy?"
??- "Funny you should mention that..."
She inflated another balloon.

Crowboys? These guys were kinda nervous.
Cameron- "By 'revenge' we don't mean anything about Crowboys, really." Tristan- "We're just these frandly people!"

August took the balloon he didn't want to seem impolite, especially not to a Crowboy."Crowboys? Lawdamimbo. We ain't gonna hurt no one, not really, just pranks. We're as gentle as lambs, I swear. You'd want revenge too if ya heart was ripped into a million pieces like a dog with a newspaper. "

Ru- "Er..um, thank you for the balloon... What is your name, if I might ask? I'm Ru.." He tried to conjure the smooth charisma of a true vampire, but instead just felt weird and nervous. Today wasn't his day apparently..besides maybe his day to give other people bad ideas.
If he could he would have blushed, but instead just appeared uncomfortable in his fancy gothy get-up.

She hoped a fight didn't break out in a ShopMart, of all places."Relax, everybody. We're just being dramatic artists. It's not revenge, really. More like ... a prank on an iconoclast journalist who reviewed our last movie." Babette noticed the metal stickers. "Ohhh. Ru here used to work at a record store. I bet you two would have a lot to talk about. See? We're already making friends. I'm Babette. My favorite color ... is black, but I also like purple and orange. Your choice."

Cameron- "The heart-ripping, that was the journalist guy. See? Nothing to do with Crowboys. Yes." Tristan- "Music is good, yeah?!"
- ?? "Heard you were having some Crowboy troubles. Tch, what a shame... See, I know a way you could avoid those troubles..."
Chloë- "I don't have any troubles with anyone!!" - ?? "Shhh shhhh, it's okay baby. We're just talkin'. We're all friends here, right? Friends?"
Chloë- "...Yeah?"
- ?? "So tell your old friend Amaranthia Godcrusher Dupuis your woes. If it ain't Crowboys, what's the trouble? Something about some flick got ya down?"
She handed a purple balloon to Babette.

"Crowboys did hurt me friends but it's this gangster we're after, him and Lloyd French. Err I'm August." He handed her the article to read which he'd bookmarked against his better judgement.

Ru- Ru gritted his teeth and looked uncomfortable. "Well, yes, we did have a bit of trouble... Um. um, Blue and orange are my colors. I did used to work at a record store... It's hard to find fellow Heavy Metal-lovers... " Ru smiled meekly, and mentally added; if by a 'bit of trouble' he meant getting their behinds solidly beaten by Crowboys and having to be saved by Uncle Demi throwing one into outer space...

"Hmm ..." Babette hadn't actually read the notorious article yet. Might as well learn what the big fuss was. She leaned over to skim the phone, careful not to get toooo close to Godcrusher."Hmm. 'Sexual majesty of Ru Knight ...' Ohoho. Maybe you shouldn't help prank this guy, Ru. You should date him. Wait. What's this? Tina Golbecky and Shania Woodward are more passionate than me and Chloe?! Tina and Shania?" She sobbed and clutched her purple balloon passionately. How cruel.

Amaranthia looked over the article briefly before handing the phone back. Amaranthia- "Ugh, these damn muckrakers. Just throw 'em all in the pit and let 'em duke it out between 'em, that's what I always say." Amaranthia- "So a bunch of artistes here, hm? Funny that, the boss just happens to love a good ol' midnight feature..." Amaranthia- "Ya see, there's this friend of mine, he's got an in with those crow guys. Wants to start a truce with the Circle. A 'you scratch my back,' et cetera et cetera."
Chloë- "Huh?"
Amaranthia- "Just a little deal between friends..." She handed a balloon to Ru.
