Kaneko's eyes shone, he was going to let her have a garden on her own! How exciting! "Yes well I know it won't be easy but that's okay because it will be fun and I'll do my best to make sure the plants don't die." Maybe Allen could help her get started. Once they had their own little place though of course. A place that they could call home and not have to worry about anyone finding them. That's what she thought. It never occurred to her that vampires and vampire hunters could very well be living in the area they left to. She never thought that they could very much be anywhere. "Well yes, everything in here would be considered an antique." Kaneko admitted with a smile. Everything here was so old, it held an untold story and that's what people found so fascinating about these types of things. Was Allen really prepared to leave all of this behind? Once they left, there was no turning back. Allen explained to her that his craving, or thirst as she called it, was worsening. It was getting much more serious and he made a very good point, hunting was out of the question in his current condition. "W-well...at least you're not in any pain and...t-the offer still stands." She whispered the last part. "We'll leave shortly. I'll just go and collect some books to take with us, alright? You just rest here. We will...we'll figure something out Allen." They had to. He could always hunt once he was better, but how long would that take?

Clint watched Maddie go around and look at the different kinds of shampoo. It wasn't surprising to see her open and sniff them either since he was guilty of doing that too when he bought shampoo and conditioner. Females had a larger array of scents where as men didn't. She ended up picking one and grabbing the matching conditioner. How cute. Now it was on to toothpaste. Clint looked at the different ones and picked up a box for himself then looked at her when she spoke to him. "Oh, well I've used this one, this one, and most recently this one with baking soda in it. Crest and Colgate, those are the best brands. But if you have sensitive teeth then Sensodyne is your best bet. It's a really good brand too. I've used it once or twice before, really good." He explained to her. Yes he was giving her options. He wasn't going to just tell her to buy a certain one, the choice was hers to make. He was just there to help narrow down the many options to the ones he personally preferred.

"Mhm! I've always wanted to have a garden of my own. But I was never allowed. My mother never liked it and my father never let me try." She shrugged, carefully putting the herbs away in a plastic bag. Books on herbs? Well it would come in handy. Think of all the kinds of herbal teas and remedies she could learn about? Maybe the books would even tell her where to find certain herbs. "I did see the books but I didn't recognize the titles." She admitted with a nervous smile. Reading. It wasn't something she did often. Before, she never really had much of a chance. Between washing the dishes, doing the laundry, cleaning the house, preparing the meals, and going to work, there wasn't really a time set for reading. Maybe this time it would be different though. She still would be doing the same things but maybe now she'd be able to find some time to read. Maybe while Allen slept she could read a few pages before bed. "I'll grab a couple of them. They should come in handy." She couldn't take too many of them though, as much as she wanted to. "H-how are you feeling by the way?" She asked after the herbs had been put away.

It was loud in there. The store had the radio on and people were talking to one another, greeting each other. They all seemed happy. All of them were unaware of two people who had just entered the store, but that was good. Maddie didn't want the attention and neither did Clint. He made his way towards the hygienic isle where he knew they'd find shampoo and conditioner. "Alright, have a looksie and pick out something you like. I think they have toothpaste here too." Clint commented, looking around for some. He was out of toothpaste himself so he might as well by himself a few things too since he was here already. Besides, he was paying it all together anyway so it was fine. He could hear kids run past the isle, probably grabbing a last minute snack before they had to leave. He remembered doing that a lot when he was a kid.

"I don't know what any of you do, but I'm sure you'll come in handy eventually. I mean...Allen wouldn't have kept you in here unless you were useful." Kaneko spoke to the plants as if they would hear her and talk back. But talking out loud made things not seem so lonely, and she did it often when she was alone. Almost as to keep herself company of some sort even if it was just her voice. The silence was nice but too much of it was spooky. Kaneko gathered the herbs and cradled them in her arms and continued to look around. "Hmm...what else could be of use in here?" Well, she couldn't really do much. She needed to put these down somewhere, so she set them down on his desk carefully. Kaneko opened up small cubby holes and looked inside. Empty. Opening up small drawers, she looked through but saw nothing of importance. She closed them again and looked around. There were many books, would he need any of them? "Hmm..." He wouldn't be able to read them but she could. Curiously, she made her way to a bookshelf and looked through the titles. All of which she had never heard of. With a pout, she gathered up the herbs again and made her way back to his room. "I found more herbs Allen. I figured these may be helpful in the future and perhaps we can plant them and then they shall grow and we will be able to harvest these whenever you might need them!" She suggested with a grin.

"You'll be fine Mads." He said quietly. "You'll see, we'll be in and out of there in no time." Again, Clint was being positive about this. He didn't want to think that things would go wrong in there that wouldn't help any of them. Making sure the doors were locked and the alarm was set, he motioned for her to follow. "First thing is first, shampoo. I'm pretty sure a lot of the hygienic stuff will be in that isle. Hopefully. If not we just need to look around, no biggie." They had to have some sort of plan before going into the store or else they'd be there longer than they had to. And for her sanity, he didn't want to be there for very long. He made sure to grab a cart and walked into the large store with Maddie. Time to get this over and done with.

Kaneko pouted and nodded. "Okay.." she whispered before leaving the room and heading straight to his study. Kaneko saw a few herbs sitting there that she thought might be helpful even though she wasn't sure what they were. She sniffed each one, but that didn't really help much. They smelled odd but not terribly bad either. "I wonder what you all do." She said quietly to herself. Allen said he needed a blood root flower, the name alone told her it was rare to come across but he had clearly come across one before if he knew its purpose. Unless the older vampire had been the one to tell Allen this information. She felt terrible that she couldn't help, but at least she was doing all that she could even though it wasn't enough. Don't beat yourself up over this Kaneko. You're doing more than anyone else ever has. So you should feel good about yourself, not down in the dumps. This was true. Besides, they were moving! Wasn't that exciting? Yes, but it was also terrifying because there was still so much to do when they got there.
