I'm not sure what their thoughts are on glitter." Thinking about that led to thinking about other things which led to realising that his parents were sort of... really quite hard to read sometimes. Toby wondered vaguely if they thought the same about him, or if they understood him, or if they THOUGHT they understood him, and which of those would he prefer?

Tooooooooo much thinking was happening, and Tobias very quickly pushed all those thoughts away for a later date, before hitching a little smile back onto his face and looking at Soph and shrugging. "Probably a budget thing. There's a whole bunch of us after all." He was about to answer her question when that booming voice rang out across the building, and Toby looked up automatically as though he might see who was speaking.

No time no tiiiiiime. They had to make a decision.

"I think I..." HMMMM. Quick thinking. "I was gonna get keyrings. Y'know, as presents, but I couldn't decide between those or a dog." As he said this, Toby stepped across to the stuffed animals and picked up the dog he'd eyed up earlier. "... I think I'm gonna get this.." Even as he spoke, Toby felt guilty about the decision but... man. This dog. This dog was so cute. He'd buy the dog, feel super guilty about it, but totally make up for the lack of souvenirs later with bigger and better presents. Absolutely. "You should get your stars, or your space ooze stuff. That looks super cool."

Because really, if he got the dog and not the keyrings and then got a monkey too. Well. He'd probably explode out of guilt.

"We should hurry," the fifth year said, and hastened up to the counter to pay for his new stuffed animal friend before he could change his mind. Then he waited at the door for Soph to buy whatever so that they could head out to the meeting point together once she was all done.

"THEY're weird," was Soph's reply to Toby's comment about Fuller and Thompson, and she followed it up with a giggle and a mischievous sort of grin, imagining the looks on their faces if she had said that to them face to face. It wasn't anything they didn't already know, certainly. Heheheheh. "I have the inkling they're not a fan." Of glitter. "Remember when I dumped a whole pocketful of glitter on Fuller's head? That time in Thompson's office? After I got glitterbombed in his office?" HEHEHEHEHE. That had been loads of fun, and Fuller had looked very unamused.

Which had been, of course, outrageously amusing to Sophie.

Oh nooooo it was TIME TO GO? Soph checked her watch, realized time had passed quicker than she thought it had, and flailed her arms a little in distress. "Nooooo." Now she HAD to choose fast - should she grab stuff and buy them as presents for Tobes, even if he argued with her about it? Or SHOULD she buy those stars so she and CB could have a pretty dormitory?

Either way, she supposed she was going to be sharing and spreading joy to someone else, so... since Tobes insisted upon the stars, she grabbed two packs she could afford and waved them at him, grinning away. She paid for them and, as she reached Tobes at the doorway, she told him while patting her bag containing the stars, "You'll have to come visit and see these babies in action." Wiggly eyebrows.

And back to the parking lot they went.
