The snake woman held the cat out before her, annoyed at how heavy the feline was in her dainty hands, slithering along as her eyes swept across the area.
Her gaze lingered on the baby toy aisles, taking note of a teddy bear that pinged her chest with a heavy sense of deja vu. There was no time to divert from her goal and she continued forward the aisle indicated by Bob. Once there she tossed the cat onto a shelf ahead of her as she combed through the dolls and grabbed a box from the Monster High collection.
"Grab clothess." She instructed, fingers pressing against the plastic as she looked down at her newest acquisition.

He found himself suddenly launched, landing among boxes upon boxes of Barbies and something called Ever After dolls, sending several of them flying to make room for the giant Mauvian. He immediately turned and stared down at the snake woman, who was cradling a large, dark box in her humanoid arms.
"Are you serious, woman?" Bob was scoffing, shaking his head and he plopped down on the shelf, craning his head outside as he was already feeling cramped by the lack of space from shelf to shelf. "I have no hands - how do you expect me to grab anything?"
To emphasize his lack of assistance, one paw shoved forward and sent another Barbie doll flying to the floor. The feeling of knocking stuff over was almost euphoric to the cat, who then proceeded to continue to knock boxes off, suddenly finding more enthusiasm for the job than he'd ever expected. In turn, his mood elevated drastically with every loud thwack of a box crashing to the ground and bouncing off the linoleum flooring.
"I mean, I could probably grab a few packages, just since I'm feeling nice." He eyed the section of standalone dresses. One or two might fit in his mouth, "You got a color preference?"

Her head turned sharply towards the cat as he scolded her. "You have teeth." She snapped, holding her box close to her chest. "Watch your tone cat," she warned, her tail thrashing against the metal shelving as if to warn him.
<jussst eat it> her snakes encouraged and she let out a loud hushing noise in response.
Bob's mood seemed to lift as he made a mess of the aisle and she shook her head, mildly amused but then reminded that he was terribly male. Disgusting.
"Green." She said automatically, when he decided to stop throwing his tantrum. "Or purple."

Green was good. Purple, eh, purple was okay.
He lifted one of the plastic outfits with his nose, but it failed to fall off from the rung. He nudged it again with a paw and it toppled over, revealing a pink and white one underneath. The paw continued to nudge at the outfits...blue dress, purple dress... red something-or-another... while the youma continued to collect her dolls, Bob seemed to be struggling with merely de-cluttering a single rung.
Hmph.
Hopping to the ground with a flip, bare feet landed on the linoleum as opposed to four little paws. Human hands were now turning to reach out and collect the outfits that caught his eye (not that he was a fashionable soul, himself), pressing plastic piece after plastic piece against his naked chest while green eyes scanned for more.
Hey, if a senshi caught them... wasn't like they'd be going after him, right?
"You've figured out a way back, right? We're not gonna just walk back to the Negaverse?"

Medi's green eyes widened in surprise, snakes on her head rising and spitting angrily when the cat turned into a full-fledged man before her. He was disgusting enough as a male cat and had managed to become considerably worse now that he had two legs and...
Was that a naked chest?
Ew. Disgusting.
"I can go back myssself, no problem. I can't bring you." Sinking back to the rift was easy because it meant her energy reserves were low and she just had to...melt basically.
"I don't know how to bring you...esssspecically like that with me."

Her expression was clearly less than pleased when she noticed the Mauvian had taken on his true form. His long, furry tail paused in mid-bob as green eyes stared down the snake-woman-youma-thing. He didn't think anything of her lack of taste, not until she dropped the bomb he hadn't been expecting.
His hand let go of the newest outfit he'd collected, the rest of them pressed up against his chest as he'd amassed a small hoard for the youma's... collection (or whatever she was doing with the crap). "Wait... then how..."
Shaking his head, eyes narrowed as he physically turned to face her. "So how am I supposed to bring all this stuff along with me, if you can't take me??"
Ears flickered as he thought he heard a noise. Was it a noise? Or was it just his revved up anxiety over now realizing he was a sitting duck, giving off a powerful aura for any and all to feel around the vicinity. "What am I supposed to do, Medi??"

"I don't know!" She snapped, face more panic-stricken than she would have liked. She hadn't expected to have help in the form of a two-legger rather than a cat, but he had things for her and she didn't want to abandon them.
Or him, she guessed.
"Don't you have sssomeone you can call?" She hissed, pulling her own things tightly against her chest. "Come, we bessst leave." She already started back the way they had came only to hesitate when she spotted a back door.
"Thisss way."

"Me call someone? I thought you were someone?"
Doll clothes were still clutched to his chest, a good dozen or so being pressed tightly between two gangly, humanoid arms.So she hadn't come up with a backup plan. Great. Okay. Then again, she hadn't known the first way to the toy store, so why was he really depending on her for an escape plan???
Still... a back door was certainly better than slipping out the front....
"Okay, toots. Whatever you say."
His tail knocked over several boxes from the nearby shelf as he turned and moved to step over all the scattered toys he'd topped over in his earlier cat form. Bare feet were mindful not to trip or slip as he followed after the slithering youma, a variety of doll clothes still in his keep.
He prayed more than anything that they wouldn't get caught... not because he was avoiding a fight, but really, he was avoiding being seen in this predicament.

Medi did her best not to wince as he lobbed words at her. Immediately she was regretting bringing a mangy cat with her to this venture. If it had just been her, she could have slipped back into the rift alone instead of having to bother with some troublesome man-cat thing that threatened to make her skin crawl.
"I am a youma, I do not have the capabilities of officers." She felt the need to scold him as they slipped out of the store and down the back alley. Panic was a very real thing in her chest, but she did her best to present a false air of control.
"I did not expect company either. Essspessshially two legged." She held her package close to her chest. "I don't know what to do." For one moment, she sounded small and scared.

Aw, hell.
Bare feet found themselves on the cold, uncomfortable pavement of the back alleyway as wild red hair flew with every head turn the cat-man made. There didn't appear to be anything nearby, thankfully, but that didn't mean that things couldn't arrive at any moment.
How in the hell had she expected them to get out of there when he was a cat, much less a human??
No, it didn't matter now. Fussing and bitching about what if's and why didn'ts was pointless when they were still stuck in the alleyway together in a very human world.
His gaze traveled around until it settled on... well, her. At least, the snake-like part of her. The figurative light bulb lit up over his head.
"You can, y'know, poof yourself back, right?"
Leaning down, he tentatively began to tuck package after package of doll clothes between the crevices of her curled up tail. "Keep still... I think if you can poof with these on you, they should be able to travel back with you - right?"
Outfit after outfit got shoved between folds, Bob doing his very best to not let the anxious goosebumps on his arms affect his thinking as he touched snake of his own accord. "I can meet you back up in the Negaspace in ten or so - gotta hit up Romano's for the teleport. Cats only, unfortunately. You cool with that?"

The way the catman was reacting to the circumstances was in a manner that Medi had not expected. Considering the crass way he had greeted her and the lecherousness that had been in his voice, she hadn't thought that at the end of it, he would be talking to her in a manner she suspected was meant to reassure and calm her.
"What are you - oh." Green eyes blinked in understanding, watching as plastic packets were shoved into the coils of her tail.
"I can," she answered, head slowly nodding as she hugged her dearer prize closer to her chest. "I would hope..." she hesitated, uncertain about what would come with her if her human parts weren't holding them, but she would try.
"Okay." Her voice had quieted and she was gazing upon him with a perplexed expression. "Thank you..." There was a long pause before she spoke again, even though it was clear she wasn't finished speaking. "Bob."
With that, Medi's image appeared to darken, then melt into the ground before disappearing completely.

Green eyes stared after her in earnest as the giant snake youma disappeared into the night, no doubt back to the Rift and whatever hole she'd slithered out of. Cave? House? Wherever youma lived, out there in the great big beyond-where-he-was-willing-to-investigate.
A flicker of an aura in the back of his mind had him returning to four paws within moments, the large Maine Coon making his way towards the Negaverse high school with the intentions of using their portal. It occurred to him halfway en route that he had absolutely no reason under the sun to follow-up with her; after all, she'd done nothing but belittle and threaten him, right? So what did he care if the youma girl got her toys to travel with her?
Then again, curiosity always got the better of him....
Shaking his head, he sighed and crawled beneath the hole he'd wedged open in the schoolyard's fencing. Curiosity was going to be the death of him, whether by youma's hand or his own.
Ah well.
