[ rindou leads them through the automatic sliding doors, then briefly stops at the cart area designated for the first floor — groceries and small household items. pulling out one of the empty carts, he hands it over to kenta. ]
Here, push one of these! I know we're just here for detergent, but this is the shopping experience. If you see something that you want to buy, put it in the cart. That way, you don't have to carry it in your arms the whole time.
Past a few aisles, down here... if you look up, there's a sign that tells you what's in each aisle.
[ he points up, towards the hanging displays above the ceiling. they pass by the dry foods aisle, the snacks aisle, a couple of turns here and there, until— ]
And this one has household cleaning items! Detergent's immediately on your left, dryer sheets are next to them, and the other side has sprays and disinfectants — but that stuff doesn't matter, I guess. We'll have to pick out which detergent's the best for your clothes, too.
[ he pulls a pack of tide pods from the shelf, then hands it to kenta to examine. ]
Whoever told you that was right — these are good for beginners. After you put your clothes in the washer, you just pop one of these in, and you're good to go! You don't have to pour out liquid detergent, or anything.
Some have different scents, others are for different kinds of loads... It's complicated, so you can learn it later.
[ it's too advanced for kenta right now!! also, he just assumes Rich People have dryers by default... ]
When the washer finishes washing your clothes, they're going to be clean, but soggy — so you toss them in the dryer next. Adding a dryer sheet is optional, but they make your clothes feel softer and smell nice afterwards. I recommend it, but it's up to you.
[ a nicely scented box of dryer sheets goes into the cart! ]
Yeah! Same goes with washers. In those cases, you'd just hand-wash and air-dry the clothing yourself. In those cases... I guess you'd need detergent? I don't know how many fancy clothes you own, but just in case, let's get a small bottle of detergent before we go.
[ he's not saying it out loud, but he's definitely guessing that kenta owns a lot of fancy, high-end pieces of clothing... ]

You have a car?

[Kenta leads the way back into the building, then the elevator so he can get them to the parking garage.
And to a grey Infiniti sports coupe.]
Hop in. Do you have the address?

Here you go!

Once there, Kenta will park near the doors. And then... now it's your show, Rindou.]

[He's pretty sure he could hear the italics in experience and he's wondering whether he should be worried now.
The store is mostly empty, what with most of the clientele and staff having disappeared. Kenta would be shocked to see it on a normal day.]
Where to?

How do people choose? Oh and someone mentioned tide pods? Said they were really easy to use.

[This looks like Ancient Alchemy or something.]
I got a message about dryer sheets too but I don't know what they're used for, or if I have a dryer.
[He probably has a dryer.]

Let's take some, then.
Although I'm guessing not all clothes can go through a dryer, right?
[Since there are some who don't through the wash either... see, he's learning!]
