Preacher had stealthily (she thought) approached the dumpster. It was outside one of the local grocer's - closed for the evening. If she got lucky, she could find something through out that day. Something just past the normal standard of 'edible', perhaps. If she got really lucky, she'd find something even cooler. This wasn't something she was used to doing, unfortunately, Grimacing, she dragged a couple of egg crates to the side of the dumpster, dropping her knapsack on the ground. Preacher hopped up on the egg crates, going on tip toe to peer inside the dumpster. She braced the metal edge against her waist and leaned forward, arms outstretched to rummage.

Having gotten off of work for the night, Shun had hoped to try and pick a few things up from the grocery before it closed down. Unfortunately, he was a little too late for that. Well, he at least knew what their closing time was now. With a little huff, he turned his bike and started to leave, but he caught some movement out of the corner of his vision. Someone was slinking around the back. Narrowing his eyes, he dismounted his bike and quietly made his way closer. He wasn't sure what they were up to, sneaking around in the dark like that. Maybe it was someone planning on trying to break in to start stealing s**t? Once he got closer, he was able to hear the sound of rummaging. He furrowed his brow and peered around the corner now. Instead of seeing someone trying to get through the backdoor, he just saw someone leaning into the dumpster, digging around. A sigh escaped him.

Preacher hmmed loudly and tossed something out of the dumpster over her shoulder, in the vague direction of her bag. It was a vegetable of some sort; she had no idea what. She'd pour over her findings later. Grunting, she leaned over further and tossed something else over one shoulder. ********, it smelled in the dumpster, she thought. She was too concentrated on breathing through her mouth to notice someone else was nearby.

Whatever she tossed, it came close to hitting him as he stepped out from around the corner. "Watch it," he hissed. Folding his arms, Shun just watched her for a moment. He's seen this sort of thing plenty of times in New York. Unfortunately, small towns weren't free from things such as poverty and the homeless.

Preacher's head popped up, an embarrassed scowl already in place. "Well, you could move out of the ********' way." Her feet met the crates again and she stared at him, arms crossed and eyes squinting in the fading dusk. "What do you want?"

"I saw someone sneaking around back here. Thought something shady might be up," he huffed out. Shun couldn't see her features too easily, but he was still getting whatever visual information he could here. "Turns out that was not quite the case. You lose something in there or something?" He opted to not call her out on the fact that she was probably digging around for garbage for salvage, rather than trying to find something she had accidentally tossed out. It was still a valid possibility, though a little less plausible since this was the grocery dumpster, and not one connected to apartments or anything like that.

Preacher gritted her teeth and wished very soundly that this weird dude would just go away. "Yes, I lost yesterday's vegetables." The words were heavy with sarcasm. "I'm busy - can you go?"

Shun grunted at that, not really caring for that attitude. Dumpster diving wasn't illegal though. He supposed she wasn't doing any actual harm here either. Not right now at least. However... "Just clean up the mess whenever you are done rummaging," he warned, lightly kicking one of the disposed things that had landed near him.

"Hey," she said, clutching something green and leafy in her hand. "Don't just kick other people's stuff! ******** rude-a** ********." And with that, the vegetable was suddenly sailing towards Shun's shoulder.

Shun rolled his eyes and was just about to return to his bike when he suddenly had a disposed vegetable flying right at him. He ducked off to the side, turning to see the leafy green sailing by. He turned sharply back towards the dumpster diver, clenching his fists. "Well then do not leave 'your' s**t lying around," he hissed. Could he fine her for littering? Maybe... Did he really want to? Not particularly.He had half a mind to shove her into the dumpster instead. He held himself back from acting on that. The thought was so tempting, though.

"Or what?" Preacher had poked her head out of the dumpster and glared at him fiercely. "What're you gonna do about it?"

"I do not know... do you want to be fined for littering?" Shun stated dryly. Shoving her into the dumpster sounded way better, though.

She really, really didn't want to get fined. But her pride was more than pricked by Shun's need to just butt in. "Well, if you hadn't poked ya nose in, then we wouldn't be in this predicament, would we? Indirect cause of any altercations here is you, Mr. Snooty." Preacher hmphed very loudly.

"I would not have come to investigate if I had not spotted a shady character snooping around the back of a building," Shun grumbled in response. With a light scoff, he glanced back to where he had parked his bike, "Just get this cleaned up, before you leave, alright?"With a shake of his head, he started to back away. Though, he wasn't going to turn around, lest he end up having another vegetable flying at the back of his head or whatever.

"Ooooh, yes sir, boss man. Let me know if you'd like to give me any other orders." Innuendo dripped off of her words, but she turned and began to poke in the dumpster again. Ugh, what a ********' night.
