"Let's go on the seesaw!"
"Yeah! The seesaw! I ain't been on the seesaw for yonks!"
The two girls rushed in a unannounced race to the innocent, balanced piece of bright plastic and painted metal. They both dived on at exactly the same time and what with Redaura being a little heavier Starlit went three feet off the seat. They amused themselves for a while until a little toddler scared them off, by bawling that he wanted to go on the seesaw. Before his mother came to investigate Redaura leaped off, letting Starlit fall on her side with a thunk.
"OW!" Both disintegrated into hysterics and staggered off as best they could as the little brat got into full voice. They swayed drunkenly on the path, discussing with shop to bust next.
"How bout food?"
"I'm not hungry!"
"You never are! Scrawny...person." Redaura figured calling her friend bitch, even in play wouldn't get her a pit stop.
"Okay. Food it is..."
"Yeah!"
"After Waterstones!"
"Yeah! I love Waterstones... All those books..." they swayed there, just missing the oncoming traffic.
"You'd think you hadn't seen a car before the way you act across the road!" Starlit chided her friend, after stopping Red from just running across the road.
Red gawked at the cars in mock amazement, "cars?! Cars?! What are they doing on the road?!" she clutched Starlit's arm in mock panic as they marched into the shop. With a long suffering sigh Starlit homed in on the fantasy section of the store, wincing when her friend yipped with delight that a book she really wanted was in stock.

Starlit laughed as Reds stomach growled. "Lets get you feed, animal!" Redaura decided not to answer that, but her stomach vibrated again, just as a reminder.
"Lets go across there!" she declared. She dived straight across the road and screamed as she looked straight into a car.
