  Day 1, Afternoon: The Food Court 2
Okay, food acquired. That'll be six dollars and ninety-eight cents.

The Footlocker has some pretty good stuff. You can get some Nike trainers for 800 gp that'll up your movement rate by 1". Or, if you want the top-shelf kicks, pay 2500 gp for +2" to movement and +1 to DX. Only one pair of those available guys, so don't all try 'em on. The ogre in the black-and-white checkered referee's shirt says "Uh, yeah, those are some pretty good sneakers. Uh, can I have your zip code please?"

You can get some magic knee braces that'll give you a +1 save to paralyzation for 200 gp. Or a sweet aluminum bat for 50 gp. You can also buy some steroids (+1 to ST and CN for 1d20 rounds, cumulative per dose up to 4) for 150 gp per dose. Or some sweat socks, 3 pairs for 10 gp. Finally, it looks like they have some Pilate's training videos or something. You'd bet each video, going for 300 gp each, set of three, would give you a +1, +2, and then +4 bonus total to your acrobatics.

As for lodging, hmm. Doesn't look promising. You see a lot of guys just sort of nodding off in their chairs or on the floor.

...

Marivhon, on your 1 WI check, sure enough you find Freddy 5, the cube modron selling magic robes. "1000 gps, you get a +1 robe of protection. Only got three of these babies, gotta sell 'em now. Move along if you don't likey-likey." His four eyes look around in a 'shifty' kind of way.

Marivhon, also, you see what looks like that guy Shi Jukka in line at Panda Express. He seems to be doing well, well enough at least to pay the dollar extra for the fried shrimp.

Brogg, you see your clay golem sitting in what looks like an uncomfortably small chair in the food court.

...


So, there's no Chili's here that you can find. No Coffee Chateau neither. Most importantly, I guess, no Vrill. You ask about both of these places at the terminal M information desk... terminal M seems to be for straight up dead humanoids, lots of orcs, humans, goblins, halflings, all just hanging out. But the place is the busiest yet, so you wait in the queue for quite a while. There's this halfling three guys up from you at the desk, some hotshot priest of Yolanda who's all like "No, really, look, I'm about to be Raised any minute, like any second now." He checks his watch and sighs in exasperation. "So can you please- no, wait, lemme finish- can you please just tell me where the Resurrection waiting room is? No I don't need some food stamps, I'm about to get out of here, just as soon as my goddamn friends get me out of that dungeon." It goes on for a while. The lizard man in front of you turns around and rolls his eyes. He says to you "Can you believe this guy? Sure you're gonna be raised buddy. Sure..."

Eventually you make it to the front, and ask about the coffee shop and Chili's. A tired dwarf lady at the end of her patience says "No no no, you want terminal Y. Head down there and ask them. NEXT!" You ask again about libraries. She glares at you. "Terminal V, terminal B, and the temples in A and Z. Plus Border's here and there. Including RIGHT OVER THERE." She points towards the food court, where sure enough, there's a small Border's. Huh, the Mysterious X's book is featured on their display table.

You ask also about accomodations, and the lady says "Yeah we used to have a Marriott off terminal B, for visitors, but it's all closed now. You might find some cots at one of the shrines."
