[PRP] ...Eccentric Style....

[Faeyas]

It was surprisingly difficult to walk into town today. Sable groaned as she kept tripping on her own legs. They were far to long, and she was certainly too high.

Normally she would bypass the problem all together and just shrink and fly into town... except that she remembered how much her body had grown just in the last night. She also remembered how much her body hurt when it first adjusted to shrinking.

Pairing the two, just didn't seem like a good idea.

That and Sable suspected she would be like this for a while. So she had to get used to walking. It took the entire trip from Mia's to the clothing district... but by the time she was there she was hoping and jumping and twirling like normal.

And it hurt. Sable rubbed her chest. Bulges were inconvieniant, they just bounced around without restraint. Even if hers were fairly small, they still bounced a bunch under Mia's dress.

Maybe it was just the dress, but Sable could have sworn that Mia's bulges didn't do this, and she was always running around... mainly chasing Sable.

The stores were lovely, and there were many pieces of garb outside, in windows and tucked into shops.

Sable had never been dress shopping before so she was excited about how to begin.

A pocket filled with a money pouch, Sable took her first steps towards the shops and stalls.

Sitara had ran out of home early that morning, grocery list in one hand and basket in the other, heading straight for the market now. Silver sent her to pick up these things all the time now, and the dust loved every second of it. While most would have seen it as a chore, she saw it as a sign that her father trusted her. And it get her moving. The star dust hated sitting down for a long time.

The girl stopped in front of the clothing store, and peered into the window. Hey... she'd never stopped there before ! Dad wouldn't mind if the groceries were a tiny bit late... right ?

With that in mind, the dust slid into the shop.

The wind was warm from the ocean and smelled of clean air. Hymn was happy such a day as this had come when he chose to venture down to the shops. From his new house it wasn't near as far of a walk, but the long path down the hill that Aimes was built on caused some problems as he walked. It seemed as if a large part of the town was flat but stairs and paths and roads were everywhere twisting and turning in such a confusing pattern that you might as well be stuck in an endless maze.

The dust only smiled and stuffed his hands in his pocket thinking of his recent encounter with Cada and smiled. The small dust seemed to happy to be around him, and Hymn felt the same- it was magical to have his companion around.

Hymn only postponed thinking about the newly aged teenage dust and turned onto the main street leading into the Clothing District. It consisted of a few streets entangled around it's own center. The center of the district had a large fountain and a couple of statues adoring the beautiful roads that made up this high-class part of town.

Coming here made Hymn feel inferior a lot of the time but the dust had learned to ignore the feeling. He looked in awe as the streets began to split and fiddled with the wad of cash he had earned from Sojo in his pocket before he began thinking about which store to go into. Which would honestly be best?  

[Faeyas]

It was confusing, with so many shops, Sable decided. She hadn't made it past her first step as she was overwhelmed with the possibilities all the shops held. yet nothing, no sign, no item, told Sable where she should begin. She had never gone shopping for clothes before, let alone teen clothes and had no idea where to begin.

Sable saw a girl with a witches hat enter into one of the shops and decided that her style was nice. So, using sable logic, the shop had to have some nice clothes in it. The girl might even know about shopping! Sable was suddenly gleeful as her feet naturally flew after the girl, into the shop.

But once she entered the shop she had found that she had run into the girl she had been watching.

Who knew that people stopped once they entered stores...  

[A Wandering Esper]

There was a sudden push against her back, and Sitara stumbled a few steps forward, barely avoiding being knocked down flat on her face.

"Hey !" The girl let out a started sound, then turned to see who had bumped into her. She had half a mind to say something, but she had promised her father she would try to be nicer...

Especially to the older boys that could easily pummel her down. That had not been pleasant. "Hey." She repeated, more calmly. "Are you allright ?"  

[Kanove]

Hymn spotted the accident coming from quite a distance away- it was obvious one of the girls hadn't seen the other and when the collision happened he winced. "Ouch-" he whispered and began moving toward the two of them. Nervously he leaned against the door way leaning down to help Sitara up before he did anything else. It seemed a bit disrespectful to let his friend just lay there, since he would guess she had recognized him.

"Are you okay Sitara," he asked dusting off her back as he stood straight back up. The teen dust looked at the other girl who was a bit shorter than he was and smiled. "Sorry about her, she tends to go off into her own world sometimes," commented Hymn remembering their encounter in Helena.

Hymn examined Sable and guest she was a dust because of the wings on her back. Extending his hand a bit awkwardly Hymn smiled, "My name's Hymn, yours?" He smiled at her forgetting all about the previous collision.  

[Faeyas]

"I'm--" Sable began before the mask wearing male had jumped into the conversation. Sable raised an eyebrow "Fine.." she finished, but quietly.

The girl was helped up by the guy, and he was apologizing for her... which was odd. "Are you her guardian or somethin'?" Sable asked, unaware that the harsh words didn't fit her new, pretty, face. " 'cus if you arn't... she was doing pretty well on her own..." She commented. "I'm sable." She smiled at the girl, and the mask man... Hymn? Sable shook her head. Mask man sounded better, and fit this adult better.

"So hey! I was wondering." Sable began as she turned to the girl, "I need new clothes... and I like your style... can you help me find something?" This was different from the original plan, and Sable knew it. However due to the turn of events, this was just as good.  

[A Wandering Esper]

"Hyyyymn !" The child pouted. That was so not her fault, she only stopped for a second ! See, even the winged girl agreed with her. "Im fine. Went though worse than that. Like you being in my way." She stuck out her tongue playfully, words lacking the harshness she would otherwise used in a situation like this.

"That's okay, he's my friend. Im Sitara." This girl liked her clothes ? That... was the first time someone ever told her that. "Thank you ! Hmmm..." As for help... well, she remembered going clothes shopping with her dad, but not in that perticular place. "We can look in here, and if we don't find anything you like here, we can go where my dad usually takes me ? It's not too far away."  

[Kanove]

Hymn only laughed, one of the few times he actually did so, and looked down at Sable. She was looking for clothes? 'Must have just grown' he commented and judging by her height Hymn knew she was a teen by now.

It was quite peculiar, you normally didn't find so many dusts in one place but moving past Sitara he moved into the shop and looked around. If the girl was looking for clothes she'd probably one something to accent her body, and it looked like something colorful may be in order for that.

Though, and Hymn knew, if you went by personality he would throw a pile of mud on her and call it a day. He snickered at his own thoughts and moved over to a clothes rack. "What about this Sitara," he held something out looking at Sable, it was all white, but had nice designs and curves to it.

Probably not.  

[Faeyas]

"Sounds good!" Sable confirmed with the girl, Sitara's, suggestion that they look here then go where her dad usually takes her.

She walked further into the shop, her bulged bouncing with every step she took.

The mask guy, Hymn, asked Sitara her opinion while offering the garment to Sable. This confused Sable since normally you would show the item to the person you were asking.

Ignoring the garment, since she wasn't asked, Sable continued to shift through the clothes available.
 

[A Wandering Esper]

...The things on Sable's chest kept bouncing. For some reason, this was extremely amusing. However, by some miracle, Sitara seemed to be able to keep her amusement to herself, as she followed both teens.

"Hnnnn." She looked at the garment Hymn was holding out. She wasn't quite sure about this one... "I don't know. Seems a little too... white. What do you think, Sable ?" Sable was covered in soft, pastel colors, from hairs to wings it seemed, and white might just wash her out too much. The girl knew little about fashion, but she knew at least that much.

As is, it had taken some mental struggle to not turn it down immediately just because it was a dress. After all, she was not the one that would wear it. Sable seemed to like dresses, and she could put her dislike aside and be able to tell pretty from not pretty. After all, this was not cloth shopping for her, but for the fairy girl.  

[Kanove]

"Hm- alright," Hymn said sliding the dress back in. Sable was a normal young teen, her body was changing so Hymn figured it be best to get something that could change with her. Sitara seemed to note the same.

Pulling his hand off the wrack he moved back in the store to a more colorful section where he searched threading his hands through pairs of clothing and outfits that had been combined.

"Sable, what colors do you like?" Hymn asked letting his eyes wander across the store. It was small- and with no one but them three in the store Hymn found it quite peaceful and open to talk across it.

After all- he had to stretch his social bounds. In fact, Sojo called it: Expanding your horizons. Hymn only smiled thinking back to their conversation. Shaking his head he concentrated back on the wracks and pulled off several lighter colors, examining them and replacing them with another.  

[Faeyas]

"Plain." Sable agreed, "Though a dress is a good idea...." She contemplated. None of the clothes on her rack would work, Sable decided and turned back to where Sitara was looking.

"I like pastels..." She explained, knowing the irony of the browns and earth tones she was currently wearing, "Purples, pinks, blues...." She lifted out an odd garment. It was a... cape? She twirled it around. there was a nice flare at the bottom... but she wasn't sure how to put it on....

"Do either of you know how you would wear this?" She held up the cape, it was purple on the inside, blue and pink on the outside....  

[A Wandering Esper]

Sitara nodded and put the dress back loosely where it had been taken, her face scrunched up in concentration as she looked over the racks. Sable mentioning the colors she liked helped a whole lot, actually, but mostly at throwing out things that the fairy would likely not appreciate.

It was when the older girl spoke again that the star looked at her direction again, reaching to tuck a rainbow colored strand back into her hat by reflex. "Ahh, that's a cape ! Daddy wears a few of those sometimes." Though Silver's choices were rarely this colorful. But that meant she knew how to answer Sable's question.

"You wear it on your shoulders... Though you'll probably need holes for your wings." It was so odd to say out loud. Sitara herself had to deal with it every time she went out for new clothing, but she had never met someone else who had to deal with the same thing ! "Im pretty used to do it, if you want me to do it later."  

[Kanove]

Hymn nodded and went back to searching on his own. When Sable found a cape she liked Hymn looked up and held up a choice of his own. It didn't fit with the cape so sighing he stuffed it back. Nothing on these front wracks had anything he liked so vanishing behind tall racks in the back of the store the dust searched the shelves that might be of some interest. There were several pasted colored outfits but nothing that matched her prefrences until he scaled along a section.

About two to three outfits contained the exact colors she asked for, one was a dress, another a sort of unique design, and another was a top and bottom fancy type thing. Hymn could only laugh at the two piece and storing it away he laid the two choices on a ladder and turned back to the shelves to continue looking. "No.. no...no."he mumbled sliding the outfits along the wracks.

Maybe there wasn't anything but those two outfits in this shop of her pallet. She wasn't picky but those colors were hard to find.
