After having his last expedition attempt be interrupted by the quakes that have been ripping through the land, Vejovis has regrouped with a new team. They discover a few more tracks to follow.

The first leads to a meal tent where folks seem to be up in arms about something. Seems a shooting went wrong....*

The next is towards one of the many stores. It seems there's a special production deal going on! x2

The next one is towards the castle's water supply. The poor, poor water supply.

The last one seems to be heading towards the wasteland.

There's also a fortune-telling booth nearby......

Vejovis taps at his face idly, processing the options laid before his 'research team'. Options for lackeys assistants on Prison Planet were surprisingly slim, but perhaps their performance would surpass his expectations.

The AI's own blort was rather interested in the Mallon with extra ears. Perhaps it was hopeful that if it tried being a [Cheerleader] it might be just what it needs this time to truly become legendary…

The group all enter the store. As soon as they all do they're assaulted by loud music. It looks like a party has been set up!

Apollo smiles with great effort as the group comes in.

Not only did he not want to be a cashier, but he especially didn't want to be a cashier for the group of weirdos walking into the store.

Oh no. It was another V1 AI. He was going to out Apollo in public, he just knew it.

THE RAT FOOD IS NOW IRRESISTIBLE!

Vejovis's face doesnt move, it cant move. But he is frowning.
Vejovs checks his inventory to see if he has a coin.

Apollo opens a capsule. It's a......uh.....

Oxymoron seems to recognise that's a fluskal! Regardless. He wants it still... He knows someone who likes fluskals!

Apollo looks at Zookeeper for help. He is............yep....he's.........distracted.

THE RAT FOOD HAS INCRESED IN APPEAL.
YOU'RE LOSING YOUR MIND AT THIS DEALS.

This time, Oxymoron considers it, truly. That 0.1% sale is looking sweet....

Zookeeper throws a blanket on him.

Zookeeper takes the art!

He scuttles to the giant fridge in the back of the store and pins it there.

B-7801 has Leechy use [Secret Finder]!
Leechy doesn't even take a second to point towards the fridge. Something odd is within it....

Zookeeper approaches Vejovis. He is very excited!

With Zookeeper distracted by the prospect of art, B-7801 approaches the fridge, Leechy in tow.
Annatto takes advantage of the distraction to try and rescue the stolen art from the fridge!
Wednesday just walks behind the robots and goes to see where B-7801 went.

As Annotto touches the fridge, he is shocked.

It hurts, but Annotto keeps going, deciding to take the art back out of spite.

The next shock is horrible! The small robot falls to the ground, unable to move for a short bit.
Oxymoron is bored of the current situation. he is, however, also curious about where everyone went. He goes to see the fridge, although observing from afar.

Wednesday just grabs whatever points are left on her card and just tries to grab the fish again.

Perhaps out of spite Vejovis manages to make a wobbly looking apollo image. The zookeeper now has a tattoo of Apollo on him.

Zookeeper suddenly starts spinning in place, trying to see the artwork drawn on him.
Everyone watches him do this for a full minute before he suddenly and unexpectedly folds his legs under himself and shuts off.

With Zookeeper distracted, but now well aware of the electric shock the fridge gives, B-7801 tries to find something to open the fridge door with.

B-7801 finds a bar but...is pretty sure it'll still shock them through it.

Vejovis is stunned!

WEDNESDAY ATTEMPTS TO STEAL THE FISH AGAIN.
This is her only goal if rat food is too much.

The creature bites Wednesday!

A small fire has started in the store.

The fire suddenly goes out.

Vejovis huffs and goes to check if the fridge is plugged in.

B-7801 has an alright amount of money but more is needed.

Annatto checks his inventory too. He feels pretty bad about the scene without anyone even buying anything.

He's poor.

She's poor.

Oxymoron and Vejovis check their inventories for money too.

With all their money combined, they're all..........slightly short on money.

Apollo takes out his wallet and puts his tiny amount of money into the pile.

Apollo doesn't know shit, his mind is akin to a hamster struggling to run on a wheel.

The idea of saying "I don't know if I'll ever see my sister again" made Apollo's head swirl. He didn't like his sister. He hated his sister.............

But he cared about her, and truth be told, the fact that nothing has been said about his sister's appearance in the last few days has worried him to no end.

Apollo slides all the money into a jar.
He weeps over his own money going in.

Apollo grabs a towel. He has to get the artwork off of Zookeeper. While passing the fridge he looks at the artwork that was stolen before he could see it.
