Yeah the mutant thing hadn't made sense even when Kitty had thought it briefly, but she wasn't sure what else it could be, at least until John mentioned that maybe it was because she was a woman. His tone had been teasing, but she couldn't help but wonder.
"See," She grinned though when he called her a good luck charm, "Hanging out with the good guys can be good for something."
It was weird, everything about these doors was weird though, whether it was the places they choose to send them or the fact that it was a thing at all. "Yeah or like one of those 'Leave it to Beaver' reruns." She agreed, huffing a little as he played up his accent into something more posh and prim. At least they could both agree that the men they'd left behind were a bunch of dicks.
She had high hopes for the grocery store though, right until there was a woman screaming at John that shocked that idea right out of her head. "What the fuck," Her ears still ringing. "Yeah, yeah I'll just.... you wait here." She agreed that was for the best, of course now she was realizing they were going to have the same issues again when they had to go back through the hardware store on their way home. That was going to be fun.
Kitty walked inside on her own, and no one even seemed to give her a second glance, it was all just warm smiles as women made their way up and down the aisles. Just like the men who had been all done up in slacks with their hair combed over neatly, these women were all done up as well, in nice dresses with their hair curled and make up perfectly applied. Kitty felt under dressed in the outfit she'd been able to get from Van Dyne's in the days since she'd arrived. But no one seemed to mind all that much.
"Are you finding everything alright? What are you making for the family for dinner tonight?" A woman asked Kitty as she made her way through the store after grabbing a cart. The woman didn't seem bothered to see her there, or even that she wasn't as made up as the rest of them.
"Um, yeah" Kitty nodded pasting on a smile, "Yeah I'm great. We're going to grill out tonight." She explained, "You know how the kids love that kind of thing." The woman pressed a hand to her chest as she nodded along like she knew exactly what Kitty meant.
"Make sure you don't forget the eggs," She told her, "Every good cook out needs some deviled eggs." Kitty managed to nodded and smile back before she and the woman were both on the move again going in separate directions. Other than the eerie lack of men, the place seemed fairly normal. Kitty gathered up all the things they'd need, buns and condiments, and then found the ground beef, all of it felt just a little too easy, but then she remembered the screaming woman and decided before she called any of this easy they needed to get home first. She loaded up all of the beef that there was available and hoped it'd be enough for the town back through the doors and considered for a moment how she was going to get out with all of this. It wasn't like she had a pocket full of money to pay for all of this.
In the end Kitty phased herself and the cart through a couple of shelves and the wall and found herself out of the store and around the side. She wasn't normally an advocate for straight up stealing, but considering just how fucking weird this place was she thought she could be forgiven. And she wheeled herself around and whistled to John to catch his attention, "Come on," She said in a low whisper, "Let's get out of here before those women in there realize what we're doing." Maybe they'd be able to do the same with the men.
