[PM/Action for the Quad] [02]

[PM to Grell]

Hey Grell? Do you possibly maybe want to go shopping with me? I need help figuring out what's in style here and, y'know, a second pair of eyes is always good! And maybe you can help me figure out what the heck to wear to Homecoming.

[Action]

[Rikku really likes the quad. It's open, it's busy, and there are plenty of distractions from her stupid lousy Accounting and Stats homework. Ugh. Numbers yes. Stupid ways of computing numbers? Not so much.

And no, she's not in the bikini. Some wonderfully awesome NPC person gave Rikku a change of clothing.]

Comments

No, just a few stupid Yevonites who can't get over the fact that their church is gone. And some fiends. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand my brother. And maybe that con man, I can't remember.

[Her smile turns sheepish]

I'm kind of good at that.

[redcinemareel]

[Laughs lightly. Grell has good taste in friends.]

A good skill to possess. Remind me to have you with me on missions.

[greeneyedmecha.livejournal.com]

Need me to swipe some shinies, I'm your girl!

[She giggles]

Anyway, think we can find me a homecoming dress here?

[redcinemareel]

What sort of dress would you like to wear? Floor length? Over the knee? Sleek? A princess cut? A sweetheart shape? Just below the knee?

[Grell knows her dresses.]

[greeneyedmecha.livejournal.com]

[Rikku just stares]

Uhm...what?

[redcinemareel]

[....SIGHS.]

Long or short.

[greeneyedmecha.livejournal.com]

Um, since short dresses can be kinda long on me...short.

[redcinemareel]

How about a mini-skirt? It should sit nicely on you.

[greeneyedmecha.livejournal.com]

Ooh, that's what I was wearing when I showed up. Is that appropriate? I mean, lots of people were staring and I'm not sure it was the good kind of staring.

[redcinemareel]

There should be a nice dress that is short in length. [Rummages through some racks.] No...no...too stripey...Ah~! [Pulls out A yellow mini dress.] I think You would glow with this color.

[greeneyedmecha.livejournal.com]

Oooh, I love yellow!

[Rikku takes it]

Do they have a place to try this on?

[redcinemareel]

[Grell ushers her to a back room POST HASTE so she can try it on. How Grell LOVES dressing up others just as much as she likes dressing up herself!]

You try it on, I'll find some shoes. What size do you wear?

[greeneyedmecha.livejournal.com]

[Rikku kicks off her boots and Grell can see that those boots are probably a size or two too large. She holds up a foot]

Tiny?

[Size six or five.]

[redcinemareel]

[...yeah she's just going to silently leave her to go try on that dress. Oh Rikku...]

[greeneyedmecha.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry! We're kinda general in the sizes back home. Most of my boots are too big anyway.

[Slipping into the dress and checking herself out in the mirror]

[redcinemareel]

Really, how do you even walk in shoes two sizes TOO BIG? [Grell returns with a pair of red pumps.] A splash of red never gets old!

[greeneyedmecha.livejournal.com]

Straps.

[Rikku takes them and puts them on before coming out to ask Grell's opinion]

Well?

[She's a little unsure about the shoes]

[redcinemareel]

Straps are for garter belts.

[Circles her once, analyzing the dress and Rikku in it. Once she comes back around, Grell grins in approval. Get used to the shoes, Rikku.]

STUNNING. It suits you well.

[greeneyedmecha.livejournal.com]

You sure? I mean, bright red and bright yellow don't normally go...? I do like the shoes, though.

[redcinemareel]

[Gives her a LOOK.]

You can always look for your own dress.

[greeneyedmecha.livejournal.com]

I'm just asking! Red's not a color I normally wear, that's all.

[redcinemareel]

It makes everything stand out more. [FLIPS HAIR] Trust me.

so do yellow and that red really go? /knows nothing of fashion

[greeneyedmecha.livejournal.com]

[Grell, Rikku thinks you might be a little biased towards red but okay!]

So, what else do you think I need for this?

*is kind of a fashion whore* YES. *watching Jem*

[redcinemareel]

You need a red belt and some more accessories. [Grins as if plotting out Rikku's whole LIFE.] Perhaps a purse?

XDd

[greeneyedmecha.livejournal.com]

I'm gonna guess you don't mean like the one I'm using.

[Rikku escapes back into the changing room to get out of the dress and put her clothes back on.]

If you think it'll go, sure!
