"Yes I have quoted Dr Atom in some of my own work" Sebastian grins glad to have someone besides Leilua who actually understands what he is talking about "and I also agree with Dr Eldrich, culturally anyway"...
Looking up as Glory hovers above the ground he nods "so are we all going to the shoe store? and can we all fly for that matter? Glory can you assist if anyone needs assistance?"

"Actually as far as I can remember, I have never actually been on a plane. Much less a more exotic for of airborne transport. Though statistically more people die annually from choking on food than in air travel accidents." Mnemonic says as if preparing himself for the new experience.

Nanite shakes his head in wonder as Mnemonic and Bastion debate the science behind the human psyche and statistics on shoe sales and air plane deaths. He looks vaguely embarressed to be hanging out with them, glader than ever for his disguise.
"I have GOT to find some cooler super-friends. Maybe Century Girl needs a sidekick . . . mmmm . . ."
He shakes his head for a second to clear it.
"Flight, eh? Gimme a second."
He stands still for a moment, as if in deep concentration. Silvery liquid runs over his shoulders and then he suddenly sports a pair of finned exhaust ports on his back.
"So who's gonna take landlocked there?"

"Thats taken care of then" Bastion grins as he slurps the last of his chai and with a stomp on the ground rebounds into the air, even as a silvery glow manifests around his feet allowing him to feel and manipulate the flow of energy beneath him "see you at Ditko Street"

Trenton Cobblery, Feb 14th, Afternoon
Nanite, Mnemonic, Glory, and Bastion
It's fairly busy on Ditko Street this afternoon. Shops displaying Valentine's Day signs are the most popular, especially Flora's Florist two doors down from Trenton Cobblery. Next door, between the two, is Easy Al's, one of the largest pawn shops in Freedom City (it's actually a chain of three stores throughout the greater city).
Trenton Cobblery is an unassuming little shop. In a retrofitted brownstone, the store would not look out of place in Victorian London. Glory, Mnemonic, Nanite, and Bastion arrive without incident. You enter the store to find it occupied with one worker and three customers, a woman, her son, and an older gentleman. The worker, a man in his 50s, is surprised to see the characters enter (especially anyone in costume), and approaches.
"James Trenton, proprietor," he says, extending a hand to no one in particular. "What can I do for you this afternoon?"
For all intents and purposes, this shop appears to be a fairly normal shoe store with a selection of both upscale and athletic footwear, mostly geared towards the male pallette.

Freedom Zoo, Feb 14th, Afternoon
Century Girl and the Entrapper
Century Girl and the Entrapper arrive at Freedom City Zoo in the afternoon, finding it a place of somewhat less activity than expected. Busloads of schoolchildren are leaving the zoo, finding their way onto school buses, on the way back to their various schools, their days done. Some families are also here, and a few tourists.
According to the signs, there is a new snake exhibit at the Freedom Zoo, and it is attracting all sorts of attention. There is even a once daily seminar for snake enthusiasts and heptophobes alike.
Once inside, Century Girl and the Entrapper find the zoo map, a large sign in the middle of the entry. A pair of zookeepers seems to have spotted the two of you, and it's somewhat obvious that you are attracting some attention.

Bastion
As Bastion sets himself down on Ditko street, he makes a mental note to purchase flowers for Leilua as a build up to valentines day and then enters Trenton Cobblery
He looks around and takes note of the customers and the display of shoes as the proprietor, James Trenton, asks "What can I do for you this afternoon?"
"Good afternoon" Bastion says convivially "We heard your radio ad and came down to see" he explains not wanting to raise alarm by directly questioning Trenton about the mention of the others but nonetheless he does decide to fish for information
"I'm sad to hear you're closing down, I hope there's nothing wrong?" the last comment is accented as a question rather than a statement...
