Maxwell snapped his yoyo into his palm, smiling hard at Heng. Waiting for the man to refute him further--but was happily met by surrender instead. Chirping delightedly, he gave the man a firm pat on the arm as he passed and stiffly marched on. "To the RETAIL, me hearties! Bunny! Eyes peeled for a scalawags uniform--for our CAPTAIN." He'd spin and dance in the street, bowing deeply in Heng's direction, his Mickey ears cap removed and flourished to his side like a proper gentleman in Rainbow Psycho's clothing. It was just as quickly returned and the man was bounding down the way to seek out a souvenirs shop worthy of shopping.
WHOOPS this went dead for a while. SORRY. I LOVE YOU GUYS. I DO.

"Aye! Let's go!" Grabbing on to Sierra's hand Walter pulled her along after his obvious partner in crime, leaving Heng to follow behind.
Bouncing happily along, still holding on to Sierra as if 'mi casa es su casa' could be applied to people as well as long as they were friends with Maxwell, it almost made him look as adorable as the nickname 'Bunny' implied. Walter looked up at her with a quizzical smile as they appeared to come to a stop at a store with vastly colorful shirts on display.
"Sisi...?" Not knowing her name he simply opted for whatever Maxwell was using. "...do you know what the pirate is called? He never told me the first time we met. " He scratched the tip of his nose. "The people down at the office will yell at me if I say "the Asian pirate" in the report....at least they did last time I didn't write someone's name and described them instead."

Heng followed along behind them, hand always rested on the staff of his Ji.
He wasn't listening to the conversation happening between the child and Sienna, instead he focused on keeping an eye out for anything. So far he felt no dangerous presence, which allowed him to relax a tiny bit.
The park was chock full of people as usual, and even with Heng's careful way of moving around people, many still bumped into him. Repetitive "sorry"'s could be heard mumbled from behind the group at the front.
With so many people, perhaps Hunters would not be as willing to attack. Heng tilted his head. Only some Hunters would be so sympathetic though. Heng took a breath, standing straighter.
Over his head loomed the sign of the shop he supposed they were to head to.

"Thank you."
It seemed the tense moment had passed and Sienna let out a huge sigh of relief. Had she been home she'd have probably slid to the ground. But she was in public so that was hardly proper. Watching Maxwell scamper off in only the way he could she sighed once more and strongly resisted the urge to facepalm at the antics she knew he was probably gonna pull as the day wore on. A hand grabbing hers suddenly was a surprise and she had to keep from yanking the limb back as she realized it was the boy. Bunny as Maxwell was calling him. He'd been mostly standoff-ish with her since they'd met up she was feeling a little unsure as she allowed him to drag her on ahead.
Had she passed some test? Or maybe she was just more appealing than Heng to have around? Either way she was at an emotional impasse with this and simply let it be for now. Once they halted their romp through the crowds she looked the store and made a face. Her unruly teammate was apparently planning to find Heng the most obnoxious outfit he could find. As Walter asked a question she turned to him and smiled a little as it seemed he'd opted to go with her given nickname. "It's Heng." She replied with a light giggle at his expense. "And I'm s-sorry you got in t-trouble." The paperwork people could be quite irate if their work wasn't done properly.
The 'Asian Pirate' had rejoined them finally and she cast him an apologetic look. She probably should've went and gotten him clothes herself. But alas, it was probably too late now.

Maxwell would vanish in an instant when they reached a location. Dipping into the store and blending quickly with it's colorful display of toys, clothes and nick-knacks. He played peek-a-boo in the clothes racks, hiding in the center of displays while thumbing through T-shirts and jackets, occasionally jerking off it's hanger to throw over the side as a suggestion. There were red shirts and blue ones, with pirate mickey heads on the front. He found a dew rag with skull and cross bones dappled all across it in pattern. A bright pink hoodie not at all pirate related, but he thought it was cute. Cute enough for Heng. And all the time, Maxwell was babbling to himself. Debating which was better. If he they should get "Captain" Heng the Baby Tee or the double extra large. Maxwell, of course, was leaning towards the Baby Tee's....Something to show off the mans...non-existent figure. And unless someone else stepped in to give their opinion soon, that's just what Heng was getting.

"Ugh, those guys always have something to complain about." Walter let go of her hand to wave dismissively at the statement as if it would make people at the office know they were being silly. "Like "don't use colored pencils to write your report" and stuff like that. Boring old farts they are." Clearly he was not at fault....
Watching with a serious thinking expression Walter mad remarks like "tja, naaah, not tourist-y enough" at the things Maxwell kept tossing to the side of the racks, completely aware that his friend was too busy talking to himself to heed any suggestion. Really, he was just entertaining himself by glancing at Heng's face for every new thing that was tossed out.

Heng was wondering where he was to put his armour after changing.
The shop was small, and all the racks pushed uncomfortably close together. Moving about was difficult. If a Hunter attacked in this situation, it would be messy to get out of.
He looked over and did a quick headcount again. Miss Sienna, present. The Child, present. The Rainbow...
The Rainbow was stationed at a rather colourful rack (of course), and was tossing clothes this way and that. Heng made a noise, and pushed over to the Rainbow, bending down to scoop up the clothes that now lay haphazardly on the floor.
" 'Tis rude to just toss them all about!" he said, sounding like a mother, smoothing the clothes hanging from his arm.

Sienna clasped her released hands in front of her as they entered the store. Maxwell was being well... Maxwell. Walter was watching him with something she could only describe as amusement and Heng was attempting to clean up after the wild hippie. Seeing this as an opportunity to save Heng a great deal of embarrassment she slipped off and grabbed a simple white T-shirt that read... Warning!I know all the words to Frozen And I will sing them to you She thought it was hilarious and reached out for a pair of sweats and then quickly made her way over to the poor man. Trying to clean up after Maxwell was something to be left to a professional. She scooped the disheveled clothes off of his arm and insisted he go try them on and pointed to the men's dressing room. "Quickly." Was all she said before turning back to clean up after her teammate. And in that moment, reorganizing the clothing racks he'd torn apart, was the most at ease she'd felt since coming here.

True, Walter. Maxwell was indeed just trying to get a rise out of Heng. Though the best he'd get was a drawl remark to be respectful. Maxwell just wrinkled his nose at the man from between a pink and yellow shirt an bit his tongue between his lips. Though he'd dart his head out of sight before Heng could really noticed, and frolicked away while Sienna intervened to pick up his mess. He'd move on to the accessories displays, seeing as Sienna was being a stick in the mud. And would gather an armload of...just about everything. He'd find a big bag with Donald on the side, bright blue and what with the quaky ducks face plastered on the side. And proceeded to fill it with an assortment of things. The dew rag he found went in the side pocket, and Minnie's ears hat would soon follow. A few rubber bracelets featuring Mike from Monsters Inc, a one eyed Minion, and Scar from Lion King, but only because he couldn't find any other one eyed character bracelets....... Besides the later, He'd find a colorful Lion King charm bracelet that he couldn't decide if he wanted to toss in the bag for Heng or keep for himself. in the end, he'd keep it for himself and drop in a few pretty beaded chains and couple pairs of striped socks. He'd eventually whirl around to show his findings to Walter. Skipping over to the boy an holding the bag open for him to see and root through. "What say you, Bunny? A fine trove, yes? But something's missing. Or some things?"

Walter stuck his head into the bag, quickly rummaging through the contents. He was greatly approving of Maxwell's sense of humour, picking out one eyed characters for their one eyed companion. “Aye, 'this indeed a fine trove.”
Popping his head back out again he put on a serious face. “But there be no suitable hat for our pirate captain.”

"I'm not a pirate," Heng muttered as he pawed through racks of clothing and not making a mess of them. When Sienna handed some clothes to him, he took them with a nod and looked towards the small rooms she was pointing towards. Changing rooms. He knew what those were. Yeah.
He squinted as he read the shirt.
"Why is there a warning on this shirt? That sounds dangerous," he said, deadpan. Was he trying to make a joke? Who knows.
He glanced over at the Rainbow again, and saw him shovelling just... so many items into a bag. Heng hoped that they weren't for him.
"Did you have anything you wished to make me.. try on?" he asked the Rainbow tentatively. He's going to regret this.

"Maybe a blinky tiara....Or a...Bow...." Maxwell was deep in debate over whatever he should a to the bad, eyes darting around the shop for other accessories. He even looked at his own arms for inspiration. Until he heard Heng, of course. The man froze as he was adoring himself and his fashion statements, and slowly turned to glance across his shoulder at the one eyed Asian. A wide smile stretching his mouth as he giggled. "I THOUGHT YOU'D NEVER ASK." Whirling around from Walter's side, Maxwell skipped across the store and very much shoved the bag in Hengs hands. "Go put these on! I picked them out JUST for you! We can go as soon as you're done! Now don't dawdle, We're loosing Disney-light!!!!" He'd feebly attempt to turn the man about to usher him in front of a mirror, not that it was necessary. And would just as soon bounce away to make his own purchases and wait for Heng so they could scan the man and buy his new goodies.

Sienna fought down the urge to snicker as Heng questioned the shirt she'd handed over and she simply didn't answer his question because he wouldn't understand. She'd hoped he might just go throw them on so they could continue. But alas, life would never be that simple with Maxwell in the mix. Walter was younger by far and even he wasn't being as messy. Or maybe she just had murder tinted glasses when ti came to her roommate. He had so much stuff off the shelves and trees and she found herself once again doing damage control. Muttering apologies as people looked at her as if she was the one responsible. And then Heng made a grievous error. He actually asked the hippy if there was anything he wanted him to try on.
There was an audible slap as her palm met her face. She couldn't think of a worse move to make Now all she could do was hope that these silly boys reigned themselves in soon. As it would do her no good to fret and fuss she simply returned to cleaning up after them with a renewed vigor. She was just going to ignore them all and clean up. Of course clean up for her went a bit above and beyond what you'd expect. She was not only putting things away but neatly organizing, sizing and straightening them as well. The people working there might not notice who was keeping their store so clean but they certainly could see the results as much work less needed to done.

Feeling a smidge left out from the terrible joke everyone else seemed to be playing on the old man who did not understand pop culture or anything related to this century, Walter decided to go find a suitable hat for the man. He went around the shop, skipping over piles Maxwell had left behind, avoiding Sisi and her manic clean up and...there. His eyes caught the perfect hat.
No such thing as too being small to reach the top shelf. The perfect hat was the perfect hat. He put both hands on the shelf above him, his feet on the bottom one and started to climb for his price.
The shelf he was standing on gave a creak and a shake. "Almost...." His fingertips were touching the brown pirate hat. "...got..." The hat refused to come towards him, going backwards instead. "...it." Not up for the strain of a child jumping up and down on it the shelf gave in.

As Heng was making his way towards the dressing room, peeking into the bag, feeling his brow crease deepen, when he heard a thunk. He whipped around, gasping as he saw the shelf wobble.
"Oh no," he breathed, taking a step forward. He hoped that the Rainbow or Sienna could reach the child before he, because rows of tightly knit racks blocked his way.
