Toby entered the mall with Chrys by his side and a surprising amount of pep in his step. After that satisfying lunch, he was quite excited to continue their outing to the arcade. As they strolled through the mall foyer, Toby took a good look around, eyes wide with wonder. "Wow... It just occurred to me that I've never actually been in here. And that I've never been in a mall this big."
He smiled at Chrys. "It'd be a shame not to look around a little while we're here."

"I'm up for that," Chrys offered as they walked through the foyer. "The mall is kinda empty today with Christmas being 24 days away... Maybe everyone did their shopping early."

"Yeah. That's weird," Toby mused, taking in the lack of traffic in the halls. He then clapped his hands together and cheerfully asked, "So what first? Arcade? Browsing? I'm up for just about anything!"

"Browse about then pop into the arcade?" Chrys offered in reply. She shared a similar smile to Toby as they walked about.

Toby separated his hands to give Chrys two thumbs up. "Sounds good to me!"
He then looked up and down the hall, quickly browsing for store names, ringing his half-raised hands. "Where to first?"

"You pick. I'm happy just hanging out," she offered.

"Ummmmm... Okay!" Toby laughed awkwardly, not sure where to begin. He looked around again for a good place to start, and eventually his eyes landed on a store window displaying various pop culture memorabilia. "Oh! Let's check this out!"

Chrys nodded as she followed the excited guy into the shop.

Upon stepping into the store, Toby paused to look around at all of the neat merchandise on display, from Marvel to Game of Thrones to Nightmare Before Christmas... Then he moved over to the wall of tee-shirts, silently studying each design and looking for one he or his friends might like. There was so much cool stuff, and he was oddly excited to see it all.

Chrys chuckled as she browsed. It was refreshing to see someone happy around her.
Her attention drifted to a wall filled with odd Japanese styled merchandise. Kamen Riders. Nice to see that they have some stuff in finally.

Toby chuckled when he found a shirt with a Ghostbusters quote, perfect for Patrick. The Kingdom Hearts shirts looked nice and were potential friendly jabs at Evan. For no particular reason, he pulled out a medium black tee-shirt with Jack Skellington's face on it, holding it up to himself for size comparison.

Chrys hummed happily as a song played over head. And I seriously thought this was just a sound bite in my head for Blaze form.

With a light shrug, Toby put the shirt back and moved on, peaking over his shoulder at the wall of bobblehead figurines. Not looking where he was going, he wound up walking right into Chrys, immediately scrambling back and turning red as a stop sign. "Ack-! I-I'm sorry, I-!"
He stumbled backwards right into a display full of pins and buttons, knocking it over and spilling its contents all over the floor. He then froze up, his green eyes wide and starkly contrasting the color of his face. "GAH-! Oh jeez I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry...!!"

Chrys chuckled. "Let's get this cleaned up. Okay jumper?" The tone in her voice was a dead give away for a teasing one as she bent down to help clean up the buttons. "Accidents happen all the time. Trust me. I work here on weekends."

Recovering from his blunder with a dorky guffaw, Toby propped the display back up before kneeling down to scoop up the buttons, a task he sped up by sweeping any buttons that had slid across the room into a pile with his shadows. Partway through, he had to chuckle at a Panic! at the Disco button, placing it with the others without giving it much thought. He and his friends' new roommate was still a matter he was somewhat stymied by.
"Um..." He cleared his throat and dumped one last handful of buttons into the display bin, a bit too embarrassed to look at Chrys. "S-Sorry... about that..."
