Adrian filed in after the lot of them, looking around blankly for a moment. He always forgot how much he despised shopping, but at least this should be a quick endeavor. He stretched his shoulders, trying to releve some of the tension that had built up inside of him in this short period of time.

He walked around, slowly finding items that he liked. A plain pair of jeans, and a dark blue long sleeve shirt were the first items he grabbed. He could hardly focus on shopping, glancing towards the front of the store quite often. His nerves were still highly on edge. He stopped at the jackets, looking at the options available. While he could increase air temperatures around him, it was a constant sapping of his strength. He picked a rather heavy duty jacket, in an attempt that it would assist on keeping him warm. Rarely could he find a jacket that would provide him complete warmth, but it was definitely better than nothing. 

He joined Enna, Athena, and the twins to check out, grimacing slightly at the amount of money it cost for one set of clothes between the five of them. He knew they didn’t have much money, but these were necessary for them all. He smiled softly at Athena as she ducked behind him, reaching back to offer a comforting rub of her back. Once checked out, he grabbed some of the clothes off of the counter, walking outside with the rest. 

He zoned out on what his body was doing, paying more attention to his surroundings than anything else. His sense of ease neither increased or decreased once they left the town, simply glad he was able to fully use his senses without everything being drowned out by the hustle and bustle of the people around him. 

As the trees neared, he also scanned the tree line, searching for any odd movement of the trees, leaves, and other plants. He spoke, his voice barely above a whisper,” I can’t tell if it’s just me being paranoid, but I definitely agree that we are being watched. I swear all my fur would be puffed out like an angry house cat if I was shifted.”
