Inside the shop

"Thank you very much." Viktoryia said, before leaving the shop with her upgrades.

Aelieth walked into the store, the zenny acquired from his exploits as a TV repairman burning a hole in his metaphorical pocket. He approached the sales counter as soon as it was convenient.

"How's it going today? I'd like to buy a Process Upgrade, please," he said, readying his zenny as he did so.


((Process Upgrade #8: 800ƶ))

The storekeeper wrassled up the desired upgrade and took Aelieth's cash. He'd been Suitachi'd.

"Have a nice one."

Aelieth LOSE: 800z

"Thanks," Aelieth said. He collected his upgrades, gave a nod to Suitachi, then left. He'd have to install them on the go; he had a boat to catch.

Stamping in, Teruko continued chatting with Ante, having just jogged up from the Metroline drop-off point. Ante's stomach was still rolling, thinking about the prospect of high speed coasters and spinning everything; Teruko, however, had worked up an appetite. "Wow, I didn't know they sold chips at the program store!" she suddenly exclaimed, interrupting her previous train of conversation.

"I don't believe they ever have. Has something changed?" Ante asked, tilting her head.

"See, Ante? Chips!" she cheered, running over to a nearby vending machine and popping in zenny for a snack. "Ooo, the good baked ones, too!"

Ante laughed dryly, shaking her head at the unintentional humor.

"You probably want some upgrades while we're here too, right?" Teruko asked through a mouthful of baked, no-salt potato chips. Placing some zenny on the counter, she looked between advertisements and pointed out things she wanted. "Let's see... one of the speed ones, one of the health ones, and three of the performance enhancers! Whoops... I'd better call them process upgrades."

"Yes, please do," Ante encouraged her, feeling embarrassed.

"Alright, so one HP up, one speed up, three PUs... that's 6900 zenny," she finished, placing the remainder back into the pockets of her track suit pants.

((Buying Speed Upgrade 1 [5000], HP upgrade 1 [1000], and PUs 2-4 [200 + 300 + 400]

5000 + 1000 + 200 + 300 + 400 = 6900))

"You make it sound like I'm selling dubious health products or something," observed Suitachi, chuckling as he rounded up all the necessary upgrades and packed them into a plastic bag. "Anyway, there you go. Sixty-nine hundred... all right, it's all there. Have a nice day," he said, handing over the bag after counting the zenny.

Teruko GET: Speed Upgrade, HP Memory, Process Upgrade x3 [#2-#4]
Teruko LOSE: 6900z

"Ha ha, naw, I know everything here's above the table," she laughed; it sort of made her think... could there be illegal navi upgrades out there too that all of the best navis use to outdo their competition? She didn't really want to think about it too hard. "Alright, thanks," she finished, waving over her back while scampering for the door. "AdrenalineWorld, here we come!"

Ante kept a passive smile, hiding her pleasure at having received more upgrades. "I'll try to keep up," she sighed.

((Headed to Electown))

Ariel made her way into the shop once again, significantly less happy than the previous customer. "Ugh, I don't remember the MetroLine being so loud..."

"Well, that's just the world's way of telling you to not drink so much next time! By the way, I hope you don't mind...earlier, I came up with a list of things I'd like to get."

"Nah, I'd rather not think too hard, anyway!" Entirely oblivious to what that could be construed as, the pilot walked up, and began reading off her Navi's list. "Okay, I'd like a Speed Upgrade, a ShadowShoes NaviCust Part, and three Process Upgrades!...ShadowShoes? You don't even have feet!"

"It's just a name! It doesn't really involve me wearing shoes!"

"...Oh, right." Well, at least she was taking measures to not think hard.

Speed Upgrade 1 - 5000z
ShadowShoes NCP - 1000z
Process Upgrades 2, 3, 4 - 900z
Total - 6900z

With yet another somewhat odd customer, Suitachi welcomed Ariel from the counter, and waited as she read off her Navi's list. He couldn't help but chuckle when he heard the NetOp's proclamation that her Navi was sans feet, thus making her wonder the reason for purchasing shadowshoes.
"Haha, sometimes the names of these upgrades are misnomers, but at least it's interesting, right? Hm, Speed upgrade... 3 process upgrades, and shadowshoes... that'll be 6900z please."

Suitachi exchanged the requested items for the money required, and placed all the upgrades in a small bag.
"Thank you and have a good day!"


Ariel GET: Speed Up x1, PU x3, ShadowShoes
Ariel LOSE: 6900z

"Well, whatever! Thanks!" And with that, Ariel walked out, to find a suitable place for upgrade installation.

(TO...SOMEWHERE)

((From Yoka))

John walked into the Navi Shop, still trying to decide how to best spend the money earned from his last busting run. Though the upgrades he was considering were still quite cheap, he didn't have that much money to play with. He looked at the shelves, and mulled over the prices for a minute before finally approaching the counter.
Hello, I'd like to buy a Speed Upgrade, four Process Upgrades, and a HP memory, please.


Speed Upgrade 1: 5000z
Process Upgrades 3,4,5,6: 1800z
HP Memory 2: 1500z
Total: 8300z

"Hm, all right, let's see what we've got..." said Suitachi, mumbling some things as he pulled out several upgrades from the counter display, setting them on the counter one by one. After a few seconds, he stated the price, packing up the upgrades in a plastic bag.

"Eighty-three hundred in total. Thanks, and have a nice day."

John GET: Speed Upgrade, HP Memory [#2], Process Upgrade x4, [#3-#6]
John LOSE: 8300z

John smiled and took the bag, before wrapping the bag around his upgrades, and sliding the now compact item into the pocket of his jacket.
You too, sir. Thank you!

As he turned to walk away, his stomach growled. Quite loudly, in fact. Loud enough to catch KaijuMan's attention.
[[b]Hm, needs work, but that's a decent growl.[/b]]
... that was my stomach, Kai.
[[b]...oh.[/b]]

John sighed as he continued on his way out, before looking both ways down the sidewalk, trying to see if there were any restaurants nearby.

((To... somewhere other than here, dunno yet))

Stepping from the tram, Vincent glanced about Sci-Labs before heading to the all too familiar shop and stepped inside, waiting patiently for his turn in line as he draws a card and sets it upon the counter. "Morning, I'd like a Process Upgrade if you would."

Buying:
Process Upgrade #14 = 1,400 Zenny

Total: 1,400 Zenny

"One upgrade coming up," said Suitachi, doing some blurry motions of grabbing and packing and swiping and greeting. Before Vincent knew it, the purchase was shown on the register's display, and Suitachi was handing him his upgrade in a plastic bag.

"Thank you, and have a nice day," the shopkeeper said.

Vincent GET: Process Upgrade [#14]
Vincent LOSE: 1400z

Taking up his card and the bag, he'd give a light nod and wave before turning to leave. "Thanks again."

[Leave to...who knows.]

Sullen was sure to bump shoulders (purposefully) with her friend on the way in. After all if she didn't take an extra long bath in Yoka she would have beaten him here!

"Well Howdy; just three process upgrades today."

=Wanted to Buy=
Process upgrade 7. 700z
Process upgrade 8. 800z
Process upgrade 9. 900z
Total:2400Z

"All right, on your way," noted Suitachi, nodding as he set a few upgrades on the counter from the display underneath it, mentally calculating the price from extensive memory. "Seven, eight, nine, twenty-four hundred in all," he said, packing up the upgrades and handing them over.

"There you go, have a nice day."

Sullen GET: Process Upgrade x3 [#7-9]
Sullen LOSE: 2400z

"Pleasure doing business with you; I think I will stick around here for a lil' while." Giving the owner a faint wave before making her exit; all she needed to do was figure out what to do with these upgrades and find a place to Log in.

A baby stroller, of all things, rolled into the entrance of the shop. As it approached the counter, a baby's cry could be heard.

"gahhh wabba wan! gahhhh!"

A mechanical arm emerged from behind the stroller and set 100 zenny on the counter. A voice emanated from a large speaker on the front of the cart.

"Allow me to translate. 1 Process Upgrade please!"
