35. [ RL with Michael ]

[trinities]

[ They didn't go to one of the big cities, security was too high there these days-- at least in the good sections-- and even though their names and faces weren't known to the media, better safe than sorry. After all, if Nena got into a fistfight with someone over a sale rack, which had definitely never happened ever before ever, small-town cops were much preferred to a trained military police force, especially since they had no identification papers to speak of.

So they went to a middling-sized town in California, Nena spreading her arms wide and spinning herself around as they entered the local mall. She was wearing jeans and a plain T-shirt, thanks to alignment!nena throwing away anything remotely cute or flattering, but still managed to look happy as anything ]

God, I can't wait to get into some clothes that let me breathe!

[Tugged! Looks like he's going to be dragged around a lot ;_____;] Fuck my actual life. What exactly are you buying again?

[trinities]

Stuff I can move in, duh! And more cute stuff, this shirt totally does nothing for me. [ And maybe swing by the men's department to get him some decent stuff too but shhhhhhh ]

[bare-my-fangs.livejournal.com]

[...Yeah, that means nothing to him.] Fine. Whatever. How are you paying for this again? [Entering the store now; why the fuck do they need so many different types of clothes holy shit @___@]

[trinities]

I drained Allelujah's CB account! It's not like he's using it right now, right? [ Starts pawing through the racks, holds out a bright pink tank top ] How about this?

[bare-my-fangs.livejournal.com]

Works for me. [Just sort of stands back, away from the clothes as though they're contagious or something.]

[Stares at Nena when she asks for his opinion.] Why the fuck are you asking me that? If you like it then get it.

[trinities]

We're bonding! [ Pulls out a red ruffly one as well ] Which one is better?

[bare-my-fangs.livejournal.com]

[Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh] Then they're both shit: the pink one is killing my eyes and the red looks like it's alive.

[trinities]

Great, I'll get them both! [ slings them over her arm and moseys on over to a table of shorts :> ]

[bare-my-fangs.livejournal.com]

[Rolls eyes.] Then what was the fucki-- [sigh] Yeah. Fine. [Trails along after her. He has a feeling that it cab only get worse.]

[trinities]

You don't like cute things, so whatever you don't like, it's got to be adorable! --Ooh, they have the shorts in pink, too! [ tosses the shirts at him as she digs through the pile for her size ]

[bare-my-fangs.livejournal.com]

[...SIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH]

[And suddenly, clothes. He only catches the shirts to stop himself from being smacked in the face with them.] [Glaaaaaaaaare]

[trinities]

[ THERE WE GO hands him the shorts too ] Now I need a top to go with them! [ over back to the racks, dig dig dig 8D ] Let's see, after this we can find a shoe store, then a shop with a good men's department...

[bare-my-fangs.livejournal.com]

[Nodding absently, only half paying attention. Tops, shoes, men's depart-- HOLD THE FUCKING PHONE.]

No. Fuck no. I didn't agree to that!

[trinities]

Hey, I didn't say I was buying clothes for you! I could be buying them for Shiro, for all you know! [ she's totally buying clothes for Michael. ]

[bare-my-fangs.livejournal.com]

[SUSPICIOUS LOOK] Alright. Fine.

[trinities]

Yay!

[ has amassed quite an armful by now, and leads him to the fitting room, sitting him down in a chair outside ]

I'll come out wearing stuff, and you tell me whether I'm cute or not!

[bare-my-fangs.livejournal.com]

[What is my life ;_____; Sitting down outside the changing rooms, chin resting on fist, with the most bored looking expression ever.]

Yay.

[trinities]

[ comes out in a plaid halter top and shorts, and spins around ]

Okay, on a scale of one to ten!

[bare-my-fangs.livejournal.com]

Sis, I really hate to break this to you, but I honestly don't give a shit.

[trinities]

Okay, we'll call it a five!

[ goes back in, comes back out, miniskirt and top with a bow on ]

So how's this? Cute, right?

[bare-my-fangs.livejournal.com]

[He's starting to wonder why he even bothers.]

[Raises an eyebrow at the next outfit.] Like hell I'm being seen with you when you're wearing that fucking bow.

[trinities]

So definitely this one, then! [ bounces back into the room, last outfit 8D Striped top! ]

I think this one makes my boobs look weird! [ stares into mirror :|9 ]

[bare-my-fangs.livejournal.com]

That's because it's about two sizes too small, idiot. [You can tell by his tone of voice that he's about two outfits away from whining like a five year old.]

[trinities]

No it's not, it's supposed to be tight!

[bare-my-fangs.livejournal.com]

[Rolls his eyes.] Well then, whatever. I don't care; if you don't like it then put it back.
