"Throne? Why Sir Knight, surely you jest. A throne is not befitting of one as noble as I!" Luke said while turning as if he had a cape. Without further theatrics, he entered the store. Several pieces of furniture were scattered around the show room, and several people meandered about. Some were discussing the price of a particular item, while others were there just to lounge about on "free" couches.

"Now then...where the hell is the office chair sections..is that a thing? Does it even exist?" Luke asked to no one in particular. He huffed at the apparent lack of service, as all of the showroom salesmen were elsewhere, or occupied. So naturally, Luke chose a random direction, and started off.

Luke began to talk quietly to himself in Norwegian. His muttered words eventually ceased as he looked back at Jake. "Okay, I'm lost again, any ideas?" He said sheepishly while scratching the back of his head.

Jake just stood in the doorway, laughing at Luke as he pretended to be some sort of nobleman from medieval times. He didn't really know what he was on about but the dramatic delivery made the laughter burst out.

Once they were both inside the store, Jake looked round for the desk chairs. After realising that Luke had the same lost expression on his face again, he came to the conclusion that this definitely wasn't the best idea. "Nope, got no clue where they are."

Nearby, there was a foot rest that Jake sat down on. "Why not get this so we can get out of here?" he suggested, bouncing up and down as he spoke.

Luke rolled his eyes at Jake and sighed. "That, is a footrest Jake." He said while managing to stifle his laughter. Luke then marched off a different aisle. However this one was filled with dining room chairs. Most were made of expensive wood, with price tags to match.

"Uh..I don't think this is the correct place.." Luke said whilst he surveyed the ornate settings. He squinted and stared at the small numbers on a price tag. "What kind of person would spend that kind of money..ON A CHAIR?!" He exclaimed after throwing the tag down.

"Alright, so this aisle is a bust. Onto the next one! Forward men! To victory!" He shouted, this time ignoring the stares of the few souls in the aisle.

"Eh, specifics. A chair is a chair, even if it's a chair for your feet." He hopped up from the footrest and followed Luke down the aisles and aisles of furniture. To Jake, the store felt like an endless maze of tables and cupboards.

Jake looked at the label Luke was talking about. "Maybe..." he failed to think of a reason. "Rich people like to spend money? I dunno." It did seem stupid to him, buying a chair that cost more than he had ever managed to save up in his life.

After yet another dramatic sentence from Luke, he followed behind, mouthing the words 'I don't know him' to people staring at the grey haired boy. Though he was funny, Luke tended to bring attention to himself, attention that Jake wouldn't normally like from strangers but it made the dull task of furniture shopping more enjoyable.

From a distance, he spied a section of desks and chairs. "Found them!" he yelled as he hurdled over furnishing and ran towards them. Now people were staring at him - great. When he got to the section, he threw himself down onto a desk chair, making it spin around. "How about this one?" he suggested.

Luke tapped his chin thoughtfully as he examined the chair Jake was so gleefully spinning on. "Well, if you'd hold still I could get a better look at it." Luke chuckled. The chair itself was nice, small, affordable, and most of all, it looked comfortable. Now all that was left to do was buy it and get through the logistics of carting the damn thing back to his dorm. "Well, at least I have someone capable of outputting a lot of horse power...er...Wolf power?" Luke thought to himself, but quickly shook the strange thought aside in order to focus on the task at hand.

"Now then, to the cash register noble steed!" He exclaimed once again, whilst pointing imperiously toward the front of the store. Luke then marched off as if he was leading a vast army, still oblivious to the many stares he received. Then again, any small boy with gray hair and a Norwegian accent tends to draw a few stares.

Once at the cashiers desk, Luke began an even greater struggle. Locating his wallet. "Damn it, I thought I put it in my hoodie pouch..hnn..Is it in my pockets...? No...Argh! Where the hell did I put it!" He muttered to himself as he did a self pat down as if he was a criminal being frisked. Of course, all while remaining oblivious to the actual location of the wallet, firmly tucked into the back pocket of his jeans.

Jake landed both feet on the floor, causing the chair to stop spinning. "Oh, you actually like this one?" he asked, expecting to have to look at every single chair in the shop. Before he gave Luke chance to change his mind, or even answer, he leapt up from the chair and started wheeling it to the cashier's desk.

At the desk, Jake looked at the strange dance Luke was doing. Of course. Of course he wouldn't have his wallet. The trip was a struggle itself, why wouldn't the end of it be one too. He would offer to pay for it now and ask Luke to pay him back later (with interest, of course) but he had hardly any money, himself. "I could always run back to your dorm and pick it up for ya?" he suggested. It was a lot of effort but it would be the quickest solution.

"N-no it's fine I just need to find it...Aha! Damn it!" Luke shouted as his wallet freed itself from its cloth prison. However said wallet somehow managed to slip from Luke's fingers and proceeded to skid across the floor.

What ensued next would surely go down in history as the greatest athletic feat known to man. Luke dove in pursuit of his wallet and slid across the floor on his stomach. He managed to grab the wallet before it slid too far out of reach. However he failed to compensate for the added momentum and ended up slamming into a nearby couch. Headfirst.

He lay on the floor groaning quietly while a small crowd of onlookers gathered. "Jake..why is my head ringing...I don't think my head should be rining...hey is that a squirrel?..." said a very dazed and confused Luke. He attempted to stand but managed to fall right back where he started. Instead, his dazed mind settled for grinning lazily up at Jake.

A soon as he saw Luke had his wallet, Jake was more preoccupied by the catalogues next to the counter, flicking through them to see more overpriced furniture. When he turned around, Luke was gone. He pivotted around until he saw the boy on the floor as people started to gather around him. What's he done now, he thought.

Hearing the rambling coming from the boy, Jake let out a deep sigh, hung his head and closed his eyes. "Honestly. This is more hard work than physics," he exclaimed. He knelt down to the grinning boy and picked him up, placing him in the desk chair back at the counter. Taking his wallet, he paid the person behind the desk and wheeled him outside.

Once outside, he pondered what to do. "Maybe I should take you to a doctor, you might have cushions or something. Or I could just take you home, get some rest and you'd probably be fine," he said to himself.

Luke was very distracted as he stared at all the wonderful colors dancing on the back of his hand. "Jake, blue doesn't like red, but purple wants them to stop fighting so that green can be friends." Luke mumbled before he promptly fell asleep and sighed softly. His head tilted to one side until his small frame was comfortably sprawled out in the chair.

Luke mumbled in his sleep. An odd mixture of Norwegian and English. He'd begin one sentence in English and switch halfway to Norwegian. Hopelessly confusing for someone who didn't speak both languages. This continued for quite some time until Luke finally quieted down. His breathing slowed as he entered a deep sleep. Of course, as fate would have it, he woke and nearly shot up out of the chair whilst looking around frantically.

He calmed down considerably and turned to look back at Jake. "For some reason I can't recall the last...actually..what happened?" His brow creased as he tried to puzzle out what had transpired over the past several minutes. "Weird..I can't remember..and..wait..When did we buy the chair? I thought we were still on our way to the register...And why does my head hurt." He said, and winced as he gingerly held his head in his hands.

Jake stood perplexed at the words that were coming out of Luke's mouth. What the hell was he on about? He would know if colours had emotions so the rambling was just nonsense; he had definitely hit his head too hard. Looking down at the sleeping boy sprawled out on the chair, he sighed, "you have got to be fucking kiddin' me."

Deciding to get some fun out of it, Jake took out a pen from his drawstring bag on his back, doodling a curly moustache and glasses on the unconscious boy's face as he was mumbling words Jake didn't understand. Pushing the chair, he started to make his way back to the dorms after graffitiing Luke.

Suddenly, the boy woke up, unaware of what had happened. Holding in a laugh, he replied, "you hit ya head, watched an argument between the colour blue and red (those two are always fighting) and then passed out."
