ground sure don't like the way it's treated

WHO: Lapis & Yuri
WHERE: Nonah
WHEN: March 7 (I guess)
WHAT: Lapis doesn't understand footwear, but at least she's getting some mileage out of her Christmas present..?
WARNINGS: None! Will edit if this changes.

[there isn't a lot that really captures Lapis' interest in the city of Nonah in any way that she's willing to admit to, but sometimes even she gets bitten by the urge to wander through the streets. it's easy to excuse the itch with practical tasks - learn the layout a little better, watch people go about their day a little more closely - and so it's with a quiet contentment that she threads her way through the crowded sidewalk.

this is currently familiar territory, which makes it easy for her to spontaneously decide to enter stores she's perused in the past. there's one about a block ahead that usually offers bafflingly human wares, more like a sort of living museum of how complicated the people of this planet could make their lives to someone like Lapis. it's been some time since she'd poked around, so maybe they'd have something new.

but first she needs to gear herself up. without any warning Lapis suddenly folds into a sitting position on the curb, legs stretched daintily before her while she remains steadfastly oblivious to the dirty looks being shot her way by fellow pedestrians. the gem on her back glows bright blue, and she reaches a hand inside it to pull out...ice skates?

no, those are definitely ice skates. and they are apparently exactly what she was looking for, because Lapis allows herself a small smile before setting about lacing them up with the methodical elegance of someone who's gotten a lot of practice at this in.

at least the blade guards are still on?]
