Eli's impulsiveness did irreparable damage to the dress. It was made of organza- a fabric that never should be stretched- and the fibers along the the zipper were overtaxed, where a rip appeared. Eli and Darren must have not heard the ripping over the rustle of clothes being forced into the limited bust.
Near the changing booths Trevor was apologizing to Daisy for the actions of the others and Daisy was apologizing to Trevor about her mother's indiscreet way of handling the situation.

{originally} Darren- "What the flip, yo?"
Vitus- "...Ugh, I've got to go. Later, Jim."
Vitus- "Don't offer to beat women, Jason. Please."
Vitus- "Of course, we'll pay for it, as Leo said. And I think we're done here as well..."
Darren- "Whatevs."
Cameron- "Eesh."
Peeps managed to get out without burning the place down. Vitus & Eli drove them to the next episode...
In North Downtown, some of the malls stayed open til 4AM for jet-lagged tourists and dissolute teens. Half the stores within the malls closed anyway, but one in particular had a high number of stores that stayed open all night. Instead of security guards, it had a dedicated police detail.
Brisburn Retail Arcade. The lights were soft and blue, the halls wide open but for random gangs of teens, insomniacs, and the police who despised them. Who wants to shop?
((This is the spot for getting more alternative-styled stuff, or low-fashion high dollar sports wear and such that hip hop fans and jocks favor. Also, last stop of the shopping portion of the evening.))

((Some of this is copied from the last page for convenience.))
Brisburn Retail Arcade was a narrow/tall mall building in the swanky North Downtown shopping district - the place with the most shops open late. It was ten stories of shopping, with a wide open-air space in the middle. During the day, sun light would make it look cheery. At night, the lights were soft and blue, and the halls wide open but for random gangs of teens, insomniacs, and the police who despised them.
The first floor had tourist tchotchke shops and one gift shop with a small selection of mini-mart styled goods.
The second through seventh floors mostly featured clothing, specialized in different styles or garment types. A small number purveyed punk goods, though of the most commercial and bland types possible. Many more had preppy or athletic clothes, some aimed at well-heeled shoppers, some at jocks, some at gangsters.
The eight floor was a food court, but also had a popular video game arcade and movie theater.
It seemed like every other floor had a cop or two, but they were outnumbered by sheisty teens. Still, not too likely to bust out in a gang war with so many of them close at hand. The mall stays open til 4AM for jet-lagged tourists and dissolute teens.

Trevor first stopped in Good Night & Good Day, a retail chain that specialized in bedroom and bathroom furnishings. There he purchased an organic cotton pillow, pillow cases, and some quality pajama sets. A heavyset red headed stock replenisher noticed him give his pillow a proper hug and grew a dimply smile.
He next went to a few clothing chains and a shoe shop for those essentials yet missing from his closet. It was tremendously uneventful.
While waiting for the rest of the party to finish their own shopping he busied himself by releasing insects that had accidentally flown in through the entryway. (Cursed lighting always confusing them.) People gawked, but ultimately decided it would be unwise to disturb him.

At some point, Leo ended up alone on the 6th floor. (( at trinity , maybe do your montage first and end it with a description of what she was doing alone on the sixth floor.)) The nearest homies were Darren and Eli on seven, & two floors away Jason and Vitus were up in the food court & Sophie was alone down on four. Trevor was on the first floor doing his bug thing.

{originally} "Hey you." He slightly smiled. ((This was done on my phone. So, excuse my mistakes if any))

{originally} In the food court,Darren- "'Sup?"
"Hello guys. Nothing too exciting happen this time?"
Darren- "How droll." ((Posting for Trinity who is on mobile.))
Leo wandered the mezzanine of the sixth floor. Occasionally a display would catch her eye, and she'd go inside the store it contained to buy whatever sort of clothing and accessories she liked.
The first store she went into was random, and she didn't even bother to look at its title. It was mostly band merch, and Leo loaded herself up with several T-shirts, paid and left.
Somehow, she managed to find a crafts store... "Sweet, acrylics!"
"What do you mean you don't have gesso?! Dammit.."
"No, I don't want a subscription to Paintbrush Of The Month."
With almost everything she hadn't been able to find at Shop-Mart, she made her leave of the crafts store.
If there ever was a time to think, it was now. Leo ventured to the sixth floor alone for this very purpose. Although she hid it well, she thought, her little adventure had rattled her considerably. The fact she was still wearing the costume didn't help. Maybe she could change into some of the clothes she just bought... Where was the bathroom, anyways? Ugh. "..And Ellen has to deal with that on a daily basis..? Well, I guess now, I do too..."
Dude- "Lookit this weirdo, mates."
Dudes- "*keeheeheehee...*"

{originally} ((I shall prevail! With very slow typing. Thank you Chris!))Weirdo? "..."
"Haha, that's funny, I could have sworn you were talking to me."
She knew damn well he was talking to her, but her pride refused to let her back down.

{originally} "Nothing, really... we're just people watching, I guess. I'm a bit bored to be completely frank with you...I'm not a shopper. Besides, all I want to do right now is get back to the estate and be alone for awhile."

{originally} Jason felt as if Eli knew something was up..maybe if he changed the subject Eli wouldn't suspect anything.
He painfully smiled. "Err, so did anything interesting happen while I was out with Gaston-Louis?" Probably not the best way to change the subject..

{originally} "Kinda.." He paused for a moment to gather his thoughts. He didn't need to be breaking down in a place like this. Especially in front of others..he didn't want anyone too see his weaker side. "Um, actually, I didn't really learn much. It was a waste of my time."
