( Everything about this place is new, and interesting, and most importantly: about a million fucking times better than the Void. There are people, real people, civilians — not just the abandoned refuse of forgotten universes. There are buildings, and businesses, and shops... and while the motel and the car dealership may have been content enough to offer their services on loan, the grocery store isn't quite so forgiving.
She doesn't have any money. She'll get a job eventually, once she figures it out, but in the meantime...
In the meantime, she's got no moral quandaries against stealing. A keen eye might catch her in the act, discreetly slipping a jar of peanut butter into the bag hanging at her hip, or using the very, very tip of some metal blade she seems to keep by her knuckles to cut the tags off of a jacket before she shrugs it onto her shoulders — what's that all about, how weird, you could swear you didn't see the other half of a knife.
Rat her out to the owners, call her out on it discreetly outside, or take pity on her and offer her some money like the charity case she is. Alternatively, distract the shopkeeper for her, or maybe run interference during an altercation if she gets caught. It's all bound to end well. She'll be disturbingly calm about it, right up until she isn't. )
