Panel 1: Peter Kepler, head to upper chest. Naomi Atarah, head to shins, in the background by the exit.

Peter:

If we've made all our purchases here...

What's next on the list?

Panel 2: Ila, head and neck, looking towards... Arkady, head to mid chest. (Not counting one rather excited lock of hair, he's nigh his head taller than her.

Arkady:

Well, there are a few items for a rainy day...

... but if my younger siblings are any metric, it may be time for an early lunch?

Ila:

Tasty food?

Panel 3: Arkady, head to waist, and Lisa, head to waist. She has a contented look on her face.

Arkady:

We'll see what we can do!

Kepler, if you'd indulge a suggestion on an establishment, I'd be happy to make it my treat.

Panel 4: Peter, starting to turn towards the exit, apart from his head which is still looking at the bulk of the group.

Peter:

I appreciate the concern on our behalf-

... but I imagine we can finance indulging a suggestion.

So suggest freely and let's be on our way.

Panel 5: Outside that particular store, and apparently into a mall proper, Naomi and Peter from behind. There are a number of random colored but not detailed people in front of them.

Naomi:

Ah, Peter, he didn't mean it like that. He's from a family line...

It's culturally natural he'd offer to treat.

Peter:

And here I thought the aristocracy was defunct, apparently they are still good for free meals.

Panel 6: Peter, head to low back, from his rear right. Ahead of him, there's a very short stairway, at the top of which stands Kallisto Summers

Peter:

Anyway-

-Ah. Fascinating.

Lunch may not be early after all.
