Blerg. I have to come up with an example of "false imprisonment" by a merchant and want to do something other than the typical "teenager shoplifter" type scenario, but the brain is blank.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Is it teenaged or shoplifting that you're avoiding? There's always imprisonment on suspicion of being black -- doesn't necessarily have to be theft, I suppose.

Adding the racial issue puts the scenario into another level of false imprisonment and I don't want to go there either.
As for avoiding the teen shoplifter, it is mainly because that seems to be the example everyone else is using.
"False imprisonment in a business setting"....the brain is just dead right now.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Could be someone obsessed with America's Most Wanted, and is sure a customer is one of those fugitive types and locks them into a store room or the dressing areas.
Or store employees see a guy talking to a toddler (He was trying to help find the mommy/daddy, and was about to alert store personnel) and they assume he's a pedophile trying to abduct the kid, and imprison him as above?

From the Mineapolis craigslist, barter section:
I own a frozen custard restaurant in south Minneapolis that serves the best frozen custard in town! I have a small parking lot at the restaurant that needs to be plowed. Interested? I can pay you with a few gallons of custard!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I hope I can find someone to go with me....
You rang?
Actually, you did, while you were here, and my stupid phone didn't tell me for 14 hours. So I totally owe you an evening Event.

Hey. New board.
Gershwin Girl has a question for the peanut gallery.
For the last several days her breasts are really sore, and the only time they're generally sore is right before her period, but that's usually much shorter time and she is not on the period now. She's not taking any hormones/birth control, and hasn't been for quite a while. AND her chest size has definitely increased, and she has gained no weight.
Oh, and she's not pregnant.
Is she going through puberty again? At 24?
