some chick and death walk into a clothing store

[ You know who Uru hasn't spoiled in a while?

Pharos.

She hasn't seen or hung out with him in quite some time too, so when he asked to go shopping because he wanted some new clothes, there wasn't any way she was declining. The best thing about her job now at the coffee house? She gets weekends totally free.

Browsing through the tables, she spots a nice red hoodie and then checks for the size label on it. ]

What do you think of this one? Or is it too bright?

[Though Pharos knows very well that it takes quite a bit to actually make money, he also knows that money isn't necessarily something that one specifically needs in Paradisa. So he doesn't feel very guilty about asking Uru to go shopping with him, because Uru always knows how to pick the best things out!

He peers at the hoodie, leaning close and squinting at it. Too bright? Was it? He had no idea. Some things didn't look very colorful to him at all, while others were just more colorful than others. Really, he's just sort of colorblind. But he beams.]

No, I think that would work splendidly! Though I would like something larger as well, but not necessarily the same thing.

[amiable]

[ She holds it up for him to get a better look at it, though she cants her head curiously at the request. ]

Do you like clothes that are loose?

[bedninja]

Loose?

[Tilting his head to peer up at her.] I do not have any particular preference on whether or not clothing is loose. It does not make any difference as far as I am able to tell.

I meant it should be large enough to fit someone that is bigger than I currently am now.

[ She's about to look at the pile again but lifts an eyebrow, obviously confused. ]

Bigger?

[amiable]

[ And she thinks about what may be his true form.

Adding a giant red sweater over that.

??? ]

T-That's really big?! I don't think you'll find that in a store!

[bedninja]

[...Oh now you've just lost him Uru. Seriously.]

I do not see why it would cause any amount of difficulty... though I believe that article of clothing looks much too big.

[Lifting a sleeve of it to look at it more closely... 8| he's pretty sure this is four or five times the size he had in mind.]

Minato never had difficulty shopping, did he? It should not be any larger than whatever size he wore, and if I recall correctly then Minato has never been very big by typical standards.

[amiable]

Minato-kun's size? [ Wait, human sized? But Pharos is so tiny in this form. ..] But it won't fit you, Pharos.

[bedninja]

Oh, do not worry about that! I am sure that it will fit perfectly. [....giggles 8'> ]

[amiable]

[ Why is this so ominous... ]

... Okay.

Do you want to try the small size, though? That way we know we can get this one for sure.

[bedninja]

I see no harm in doing so, at the very least. Although I can assure you that it will not be a problem if it would fit Minato.

[He's kind of enjoying this!] I could certainly use a smaller on as well either way. It seems somewhat dull to wear the same jacket whenever I want to go outside. [Since... Uru yells at him if he doesn't wear jackets in winter... but hey, at least he's starting to like wearing different things!]

[amiable]

You should try to wear clean clothes often. [ Since doing otherwise is gross. She holds out the small size sweater for him. ]

[bedninja]

I do wear them often! I have enough clothing to wear something different every day if I truly wish to. [Now, whether or not he considers "often" to be the same thing Uru does... But he takes the sweater and smiles, holding it up so he can get a better idea of the color.] Yes, I believe this will be wonderful. Thank you for your assistance, Uru.

[amiable]

[ Oh, Pharos.

She grins and will start to look for a bigger size like he asked. ]

We might have to go into a different section if you want bigger clothes. The one for older boys is just on the other side.

[bedninja]

I see no reason that we should not do so. It would not do if it was too small after all, would it?

[Heading over to the other side! ....she might want to try leading though, otherwise he'll probably go in the wrong direction. Stores are confusing. 8| ]

[amiable]

[ YEP. She'll take his little hand in hers and start walking in the right direction. ]

I can't believe January is done. It's like we went through this month fast, huh?

[bedninja]

[You take such good care of him, Uru. Following along beside her, since she seems to know where she's going.]

It did seem to go by unusually fast... it seems to me that most days in Paradisa move somewhat quickly, though.

Did you know that I have already been here for two years, Uru?

1/2

[amiable]

Maybe because we get so distracted...

[amiable]

[ She's taken by surprise and looks down at him. ]

Already? When was your anniversary?

1/2

[bedninja]

...I do not know that I get distracted terribly often.

[That seems kinda more like your thing, momma.]

[bedninja]

[Cue a thoughtful look.]

I believe it was on the eleventh! I spent the better part of the day covered in paint, however.

[amiable]

[ She was going to ask something else, but the paint thing... ]

Paint...?

[bedninja]

I believe it was glitter paint. It was quite troublesome, admittedly.

[amiable]

Why were you covered in it?

[bedninja]

I suppose someone thought it would be amusing to leave the open bottles on their journal.

Like most other liquids transfer through the journals, the paint did the same when you turned the page to it. ...I was not expecting it at all, so most of it ended up on me, as I was holding my journal at the time.

[amiable]

That's terrible! [ They're finally at the section for adolescent males, so she'll start looking around. ] What a jerk that person is. Whoever it was.

[ ZELMAN. ]
