Chloe felt like she was on a less ghetto version of Deep Space Nine. Truly, she was living the dream of any Trekkie with good taste.
Having loaded her credit chit with enough Manta Credits for several shopping sprees, she set out with her friends to look at the station's shopping and entertainment sectors. It was here that they got separated from each other, diverging along with their tastes. Chloe made a few people promise to tell her if they found any cool styles for aliens with digitigrade legs and/or tails, then she found herself lost in the world of alien consumer tech. There was a mirror, for example, that responded to voice commands and would be able to simulate your appearance with different outfits, and could save and replay images or video. Chloe would never get one for herself, mostly because most of its cooler functionalities required it to be attached to another, more expensive alien computer system.
The smaller gadgets were a lot more interesting to her. Small, useful robots and the much more versatile alien equivalents of smart-phones, and the kinds of toys that the overly imaginative people of the 1950s thought the children of the 2010s would have access to. There was also an anti-gravity harness which, due to the nature of the station's artificial gravity, wouldn't actually work on the station, and Chloe was trying to decide whether or not she wanted to spend the money required to take it home and test it out. Worst come to worst, she had a long time to make that decision before she had to leave.
At the moment, she was standing outside of the shop with the neat anti-grav tech and she was staring at her credit chit next to a view port, weighing her options.
