::Jasmine hums as she wheels the trolley filled with drink to Sera's car and loads it up.::

::Sera follows Jasmine out and leans against the porsche. She frowns lightly.::

"Can I ask you a question?"

"Uh..."

(...)

"Sure!"

::Jasmine finishes filling the trunk and slams it shut. She walks over to Sera.::

"What's bugging you?"

"Why'd you push me out of the boat at the park?"

::Sera stares at the hot Aussie, raising an eyebrow.::

::Jasmine laughs suddenly.::

"You fell, mate!"

::She shakes her head good-humouredly and goes to get rid of the shopping cart.::

::Sera shoots out a hand and grabs onto the cart. Her stare's intense.::

"Jasmine. I need to know. It's been bugging the shit out of me."

::Jasmine holds Sera's gaze for a while and then sighs.::

"It was just a joke, Sera."

::She pulls free and puts the trolley in a rack thingy, getting her pound coin back. Yes, her pound coin. She returns.::

"Let's go, sweetheart. They'll be stoked to see this."

(Should leave her right here. What a woman.)

::Sera sighs and gets into the porsche, turning the keys in the ignition.::

"Still wasn't a very nice thing to do, you know."

::Sadly for you, Jasmine didn't hear that. She gets into the car and looks at Sera apologetically.::

"Hey."

::She puts her hand on Sera's and gives her a look that is so full of innuendo you have permission to stall the car.::

"I'll make it up to you."

::Sera's stomach turns upside down at the expression on Jasmine's face and she almost decides to stall the car, but doesn't. The brunette smirks dirtily.::

"Really, now? Well. You better bet your ass that I'll be holding you to that, then."

::Slightly warm now, Sera runs a hand through her hair then rests it on the wheel.::

"P3?"

"I'd suggest a motel, but we have a duty. P3 it is!"

::Jasmine puts her seatbelt on and points ahead.::

(Motel? Does she think I'm cheap or something? A quick fuck? Honestly.)

::Sera raises an eyebrow and hits the gas, the tires squealing and taking them to P3 in no time.::

::Luke enters the parking lot and pulls into a space that's close to the building, seeing at it's still morning and the big crowds have yet to migrate here. He locks the doors and continues to the coffee shop.::

::Luke leaves the establishment, grabbing a hold of his keys to unlock the doors to his car. He enters the vehicle and sets the folded-up newspaper in the passenger's seat. The car gets started up with a simple turn of the key and Luke drives to The Magic Shop, hoping that the Wiccan is no longer busy.::

::Luke pulls into a spot, though it's nowhere near as close as the one he was left about a half-hour ago. He doesn't mind too much; an extra few paces won't kill him one bit. He continues to the mall.::

::Luke arrives at his car and opens up the trunk so that he can place the groceries inside. He shuts it and enters the vehicle, dropping the bag of book onto the folded newspaper. Luke backs out and drives back to CW.::

::Natalie walks over to a secluded area of the parking lot that's devoid of cars. She steps behind a bush and sits down on a convenient rock before tugging her jeans off. Wincing, she rummages blindly through the bag of medical stuff she just bought, the dim light of the evening making her squint and hold things up to see what they are. She finds what she needs and starts to clean the wound in her thigh carefully, only cursing a total of four times at how much it stings. Once the brunette's suffered through that, she sets about to dabbing antiobiotic cream on the wound and then bandages it heavily. Nat pulls her jeans back on and frowns, not wanting to go home, no matter how much she hurts or how late it's getting. So, she ends up wandering to the forest.::

"A lady's work is never done."

::She states as she waits in the parking lot. She looks around. Oh how she wishes she could shimmer. She decides it would be easier to just take one large gas canister. She leaves the other canisters around a large car. As she leaves with the one canister, she opens one of the static canisters, and throws a lit match that way, before leaving for CW.::

[Boom! Explosion. Bits of blazing car are thrown around the parking lot.]

::Late-night shoppers start running and screaming, fleeing from the chunks of car that are now lying on the floor, still alight.::

::Guards from the mall run out and join the panic, though they're trying to keep people back.::

"Everyone calm down! A fire engine is on its way!"

::And a fire engine comes screeching into the parking lot just then, and firemen jump from it's side. They work efficiently; although the explosion was big, the fire isn't, so some of them work on keeping everyone a safe distance away while a few put out the small burning car parts.::

"Is anyone injured?"

"I saw who did it! I saw!"

::A young man pushes his way to the front of the small crowd.::

::Let's say a police car came along with the fire engine. An officer approaches the young man now and pulls him aside.::

"Yes?"

"There was a dark-haired girl hanging around that car. She had two big things of petrol. Really distinctive face."

"In what way?"

::The officer notes all this down.::

"Sort of..."

::The man waves his hands round.::

"Dish-shaped. I didn't see where she went though. I was loading my shopping and the next thing I knew there was an exhaust pipe smashing through my windscreen..."

::He trails off.::

"Hey, it's okay. Can we get this guy seen to?"

::He calls over to a paramedic.::

"Thanks for your help."

::Eventually the scene is cleared and all is back to normal.::

::Hidden behind some car rubble, Charlotte and Nadia soon appear.::

"Okay, you know this place better than I do. Lead the way."

::And she does, to Gro cer ees.::

::Nikki's taxi pulls in. She checks the meter, slides out of the back seat, and tosses the money at the cabbie.::

"Thanks. You don't have to wait around, I'll walk back."

::She heads towards the Galleria and grins as she steps inside and sees all the shopping there is to be had.::

(If I believed in heaven, this would be it.)

::Going against the pounding in her head that is screaming 'shop, shop shop', Nikki somehow manages to find herself in the food court.::

:: Once outside Velma spins really fast in a circle.::

::Behind one of the street corners of the car park, Aidan and Portia appear. He nods to her.::

"Her we are..."

::Portia feels a bit woozy.::

"You know, I'm not sure I'll ever get used to that..."

"It takes some time."

::He pauses.::

"With all those cards, are you going to treat me to coffee?"

"Surely!"

::And with that, she leads them both to the coffee shop.::

:: Weirdo moves to the streets.::

::Ahem. Julie pisca com Andrea.::

"I think we should go to Florida sometime this week."

"Florida? Why?"

"Because it's far from here and the weather there is very nice. Unless you want to go somewhere else. I actually don't know how far I can blink... it would be funny if I fell somewhere in the middle of Alabama and got killed by them homosecshual haters."
