Terra - Ottawantreal

First topic message reminder :

A huge North American city, built in a mishmash of styles from many eras of architecture. the spaceport is bustling and filled with cruise ships, racing yachts, and transport craft. It's full of shops, clubs, gardens, and tourist attractions.

The weather is currently cool but sunny.

The minotaur snorted. "You do not know, or are you maintaining legal deniability?" She snorted. "Sensible. One does not desire to speak in absolutes to legal authorities, as when they are found to be lying it may be ugly."

Shane looked over to the confrontation with a frown. Matt hadn't even tried to leave the store and he was being looked at like that.

Matt shook his head. "No no, i'm pretty sure I didn't take anything else." He was doubting himself now of course, he shot the minotaur a smile though. "I just put it somewhere, i'll find it." Minotaur ladies were kinda terrifying weren't they?
He pulled out a few more handfuls of bottlecaps. "er.. can you hold these? Someone?"

The minotaur gestured to her colleague, who came over and took the bottlecaps. He looked distinctly uncomfortable.

The minotaur snorted and watched Matt. Nobody was stealing from the giftshop on HER watch.

Ellie squirmed, looking nervous.

Shane watched then added a bag to his order. Matt seriously needed something to put the bottle caps in in there.

Matt kept searching, it would take a while. After several fistfulls of bottlecaps, assorted coinage from various different regions and empires, a couple of lengths of string, some wire, some bolts and assorted other junk and a few crumpled looking letters he finally felt his fingers close around something metal and kinda pointy. "AHAH!"
He pulled that out, a small metal space ship! He looked triumphant

The minotaur took the spaceship. "Mayhap we should review the security footage now."

"Let's not do this, Nylah," the other guard said. "It's not worth it. Guys, how about you finish buying whatever you're buying and then head out."

Matt hesitated, not sure whether to be grateful or not. He nodded slowly. "Yeah, that's a good idea, let's do that."

Shane brought the bag over to them "Here, for the caps and stuff." He said with a nod.

The Terran guard took the bag Shane had given him and dropped the caps and stuff in it. "Thanks." He handed the bag to Matt. It was Matt's stuff after all.

Matt took the bag and set it on his lap. "uh.. thanks?" They should go, fast, before the guards changed their mind yeah?

The Terran guard looked awkward. He really didn't know how to handle this situation.

Ellie hastily paid for the stuff she'd decided to get, then went over to the others.

Matt wheeled backward, away from the guards and hopefully toward the exit.

Shane paid for his stuff, grabbing the bags to leave that store.

Ellie headed with the others out of the gift shop and the museum.

The guards watched them go.

Matt couldn't really turn around too easily so he'd bang into things along the way. Oops?
He took out a tshirt rail on his way to the exit, but kept on going.

When they finally got outside he'd try to turn.

The guards and the clerk weren't super pleased about things being knocked over, but they let Matt go with nothing more than a few stern looks.

"Whew," Ellie said when they were out of the museum.

Shane didn't want any bad feelings to bar them from other places, so he used his magic to quickly put the knocked over things back in place then went to Ellie's side again. "So, what do you two want to do now?"

Matt grinned sheepishly. "So... that was kinda... exciting." Was it wrong he thought the minotaur was kinda hot? Oops.

"Yeah, that was pretty crazy stuff," Ellie patted Matt's shoulder. "We didn't get arrested! And kids learned about science! So that was awesome." She looked at Shane, "Man, I dunno what to do next. Any ideas?"

(Hahaha Matt)

"There's a first time for everything." Matt grinned at Ellie. "Kay would lose it at me if I got arrested again and man, he's no fun when he's mad."

Shane shrugged and would check what time it was.

Ellie snickered. "We'd pay your bail, man, every time. Kay would never know."

It was probably around 10 am or something.

"You guys are so good to me." Matt patted Ellie's hand. "What else is cool around here?" He asked Shane, he was supposedly their expert after all.

Ellie grinned and ruffled Matt's hair. "You're our favorite drinking buddy, we have to protect you."
She looked thoughtful. "Man, we could always go clothes shopping more. I'd say we could hit the Humanist church, but they probably wouldn't be much fun for you guys. Besides, it's not a day of worship."

"There's amusement parks, other museums, monuments to see..." Shane said and shrugged a little.

"Humanist church? Wouldn't they like, glare and call us monsters or something?" Matt asked, he was kinda, just a little bit curious. "you have a special day for worship?"
