It had certainly not been there before. Apparently overnight, a photobooth appeared just inside one of the local grocery stores, off to one side where normally a coinstar would have been. No employee asked seemed to think it was out of the normal and otherwise doesn't care.
When investigated, it doesn't seem to take any money but it obviously prints out pictures. Sometimes only one, sometimes the strips of multiples. Up to three people seem to fit in it comfortably (though small animals don't seem to count in that maximum).
It also doesn't warn you when it's about to take a picture so sometimes they turn out completely unflattering or you get a picture of someone's elbow. It will only capture someone's face once - and it seems to be able to distinguish between people who look identical.
But hey. Free pictures, right?
Quote: As with any DRP, bold your instance at the top. This may be an IC Photobooth, but it's an OOC way to get a free drawing from Pach as she can get through them! Maximum of 3 characters (+ any familiars or the family dog I guess.) per snapshot. Plz 2 give references for characters. ONE PER CHARACTER (even if they have the same face looking at you tweenz). Once everybody is assembled for a picture, let me know so I don't jump on something before everybody is ready ;PP You never quite know what the machine will give you once it's snapped a picture (of who knows what moment)! I will get to these as I can, but other artists are free to grab them up too if they want.

Maybe it was because Jamie was feeling extra cute today, or just adventurous, but as soon as he saw the brand new photobooth on their trip to buy goldfish crackers and teddy grahams he knew they had to try it out. After all, it could be gone tomorrow, the next day, or the next. What if the store was just trying to drum up some attention, gain an edge over its competitors with the hip, young, photo-interested crowds, before swapping the machine out for something more economical? What if they came back next week to nothing but lost opportunities?
Jamie wasn't going to let that happen.
"Come on, Shiloh, let's give it a try," he said, smoothing his hair down first and his shirt second like he was getting ready for something really important. "I brought some extra money," boy it would be nice to see it cost nothing, though, "What do you think?" The smile he wore had to be irresistible because it was his only line of attack. Not that he expected Shiloh to say no. His boyfriend liked a little fun just as much as the next guy.
demon_pachabel Here are refs for Jamie: one, two. They're very different clothing styles, but you can draw him in whatever style you want. Currently his hair/accessories (lip ring mostly) would be closer to ref one. Also no rabbit parts, pls, it's not that time of the month LOL SORRY FOR 1 MILLION WORDS He'll be boothing it with Shiloh whenever they get there, but I figured I'd post my refs first!

Shiloh had his mind set on the teddy grahams. Nothing would be better than a bunch of sweet, delicious, mind numblingly amazing bear shaped cookies. When Jamie went to side track him from his very important quest, he was almost distraught. Why would Jamie want to do this? What could possibly be more important than snacks.
His answer came in the form of an inconspicuous (see: conspicuous) looking photo booth. Jamie was unfortunately enraptured in the idea of having some silly pictures, and not at all enraptured with the promise of goldfish. Now, it wasn't like they wouldn't go on to get these things, but they could be getting these things quicker. It wasn't so.
"You sure you have enough?" He said slyly, but the machine turned out to be free which was really weird. He had the same inkling of it being promotional, maybe, but who knew? Jamie was smiling and he knew he was trapped. Sure he could say no, but that would make him a jerk. Plus it seemed fun. Maybe. He'd be more into it if he had his groceries, but he supposed stopping on the way back would be out of the question. The chocolate milk would get gross.
"I guess, I guess." He laughed and rolled his eyes in a semi sarcastic sort of way. "C'mon, I wanna make sure we can snag all the coupon deals before the jerk-a** housewives get to 'em." Like he'd let them buy up all the porkchops again, assholes.
demon_pachabel one two shiloh has plant powers so flowers grow all over him, but i think u knew that. his smile is lopsided! boy cant do anything right

"Perfect!" It was like he missed almost everything Shiloh said after the lackluster agreement. Something about coupons and housewives, words that weren't related to getting their pictures taken. It was fine, he assured with a wave of his slender fingers, they'd get everything they came for and more. They'd get precious memories, too.
"It'll be fun, I promise," he said, shoving Shiloh into the booth. "And it's free, that's kinda weird, huh?" It only solidified in Jamie's mind that this opportunity wouldn't last forever.
"Okay, you better smile," but as he chided he also laughed, knowing the pictures would turn out cute either way. Or expecting so, at least. Shiloh was the cutest guy to him, after all. Just look at that baby face.

"Oh, um, I dunno actually. I've never used one of these before and, um, I thought there was maybe gonna be a button or something. Is it just automatic?" While Jamie was fumbling around looking for something—anything—to press, Shiloh swooped in for the kill. The kiss would definitely earn him two boxes of teddy grahams, maybe even three, because Jamie was feeling silly today.
Now he was laughing, thoroughly distracted from his search for a way to work this thing. He turned on Shiloh, eyes sparkling, and he returned the cheek smooch in a really loud, obnoxious sort of way, making himself laugh even more.
