it was a strange sensation to feel, having your stomach rumble even though it was questionable on whether you truly had a functioning one or not. to be honest, it was difficult at times for creature to decide on how to properly deal with it. staying in this new, strange world of kingsport was very much still an experience that the white-haired being was adapting to; and whether their hunger was motivated by their curiosity of emotion, or actual famine, these were still feelings they had to understand... or, well, at least attempt to remember again. because, unfortunately for creature, regardless of whatever this was, her body had shrunk in its own rebellion from the need to eat. not that the young child really minded to be as their original form, but nevertheless it still titled itself out to be a bit of a issue.

so using the creature's head (which was aka, basically following the walking bodies of others in hope of a scent of something delectable), the petite monster had found themselves in a destination that to put it in their terms... 'smelt just right.' their tiny shape made its way into what it appeared to be some sort of a food joint, and with a more eager look on their face, the white haired mini hero ran to its scent, coincidentally leading straight to a teen couple sitting down in one of the booths. and with a even more confident and bright grin, creature put a quarter down in the middle of their table, moving their fingers in a 'give me' motion.

"i paid!" the monster chirped happily, bouncing up and down slightly from both their certainty and handling of the situation. "now i can have something to eat, right?"

despite creature's enthusiasm however, there had been little success in their attempt of human manners. while the couple wasn't upset and moreover sympathetic, creature's expression quickly moved into confusion when the man and woman explained how the child's bartering was obviously wrong. and with a lot of "but, but!'s" and "why?'s" unfortunately the beast was left with only a simple fry in their hand.

once creature had slightly turned to the side however, their was a sudden change in the hero's aspiration. hunger swiftly moved into hostility when their red eyes spotted long strands of orange hair, and without even saying gratitude to the couple, creature put the fry in her mouth and dashed over to what they recognized as danger.

"BAD...BAD  PERSON!" creature had hollered pointing at the other woman, almost as if it they were a kid merely imitating a superhero rather than being one. "you're the bad person that always keeps running away!"

creature's loud voice upon the subject didn't really cause a ruckus, but their immature tone surely did cause a few faint laughs in the background. and while the white-haired being didn't really know what and how they were going to capture the declared villain in their weak form, somehow they believed they could manage. they were one of the 'good guys', after all. and everyone around creature said they always won eventually... right?

(truthfully the only thing creature could really focus on was the astounding taste of the fry in their mouth, though.)
