Spending Them C-Bills (D4 LE Pryvidok)

[Tessa Wentworth]

"Bad boys aren't allowed to. You'll have to work harder on being good." Tessa calls back sassily from behind the heavy screen. After a moment she pops out wearing the blue skirt and corset top.

"The pink top isn't quite me, but I think this is nice." She twirled slowly around. "What do you both think?" She asks, taking a few steps. The size was spot on. The skirt was conservative, as was her way, but it would be nice in and out of the office. The corset top was more fashionable than a work shirt.

[Klaus von Zinzer]

"Is the plan to wear them together? Or are you checking fit? Because both" Klaus takes an eyeful. "Look very good, but I see then used in different situations. That is the advantage of being able to mix and match I suppose and I think they are good colors on you." His eye lingers on the corset top a hair longer.

"Is that helpful advice good enough for now?" Klaus asks with a wry smile.

[Yoko Lee]

Yoko looked over thoughtfully, nodding at Klaus' words, "I would certainly agree both have very good fits. Though I'd also say the pink is a bit much. Maybe if it was a bit more subdued, pastel rather than brighter like that. If they have it in a different color I'd say go for it absolutely."

A finger went to her chin, "Otherwise I can't think of any critiques; The outfit together is definitely you, Tess."

[Tessa Wentworth]

"Thank you both." Tessa smiles softly as she speaks. "I thought the same about the pink but these in blue are good. I'll get these." She pauses a moment. "I'm not sure about the dress. Hmm. I always wanted to have a showy red dress, but I don't know... Yoko, would you help me with the zip? I'll try it on at least."

She heads back to the changing room to see what it'd look like in the mirror inside.

[Klaus von Zinzer]

Klaus sits in a nearby chair, one leg other the other in anticipation.

[Yoko Lee]

Yoko nods, following Tessa into the changing room after setting her bag with her clothes down next to Klaus.

[Tessa Wentworth]

Next comes the dress. Tessa changes out of the blue items and into the red. The sexy, showy red. With the low cut. It was much more daring than anything she had in her wardrobe. Anything she'd ever really worn.

She was already in some distress as she looked at herself in the mirror. "I'm not sure... I always wanted to have a sexy little red dress, but maybe it's... too much?" She asks nervously to Yoko as she waited for the zip.

[Yoko Lee]

Yoko smiled supportively, "Well, I will say it's certainly something different for you. But I wouldn't say it's too much, no. It's certainly less cut than some of the things I've worn, and I think the square cuts and simplicity fit you. I'm sure Klaus would agree too."

Assume he already couldn't hear the two of them talking as Yoko zipped up the back of Tess' dress carefully.

[Tessa Wentworth]

"So... you really don't think it's too much?" She queried. She didn't want to step outside if it was. "You're much braver than me Yoko."

With some reassurance Tessa exits the changing room to shyly show off the red dress. "So, erm, here it is." She held up her arms, pivoting her body left and right.

[Klaus von Zinzer]

Klaus practically falls out of his chair. He had known Tessa was lovely. There wasn't too much to hide even in a modest yoga outfit but in this? She looks good. Very good.

"It, um, fits very well. You look" Klaus pauses, his voice dropping. "Amazing."

[Tessa Wentworth]

"Thank you, erm, Klaus." She smiles and twirls the dress a bit more. Giggling nervously, she turns and flees back into the changing room. She was in a good mood.

[Yoko Lee]

Yoko chuckled as Tessa returned, watching the little interaction between her and Klaus, speaking only after she came back, "No, I don't think it's too much; It'd need to four or five centimeters shorter to be that, I think. Or deeper in the neckline. And I'm only brave because of circumstances; I wouldn't exactly say it's my own personal stock of bravery... Mmm, there you go."

She got the zipper started for Tess, "Seems like you like it though, so I'll step out and make sure my payment went through and such. Don't take too much longer, have one more stop to make before dinner."

With that she stepped out from behind the curtained room to get her card back.

[Klaus von Zinzer]

"It's certainly not too much." Klaus does not mind the appraising look. "For you Tessa, I think it shows just enough."

" To want more. He finishes in his head

[Tessa Wentworth]

A rather pleased Tessa happily lets Yoko unzip the dress. "Thank you~ and okay, I'm done. I'll change quick so we can fit in the other stop." She had responded cheerfully before Yoko popped out.

Changing back in her original outfit, she soon steps out with the items neatly folded and hung up. The peplum top is handed back to the member of staff, but she takes the other three items to the till. She wore a giddy smile as she paid for them. It was her first shopping outing in forever.

When she was done she joined back up with Yoko and Klaus ready for stop number two.

[Klaus von Zinzer]

"Where else did you want to go Miss Lee" Klaus inquires

[Yoko Lee]

As soon as the payments were all done and they were back outside, Yoko started walking down the street, a bit more towards the coast and the harbor. The restaurant itself was on the harborside, and the store she had in mind was supposed to be somewhere between here and there; Actually part of the reason she'd chosen the particular clothing store they'd just been to.

"More clothes I'm afraid, Mister Zinzer. A different sort, of course. Ladies like us traveling a while have certain accessories and such that need refreshing, you understand. Especially for more special occasions."

It was only a three minute walk and some more explaining and they were already there, thanks to no stop lights or traffic or such. Yoko had stopped outside a shop called 'Sunrise Secrets', which judging by the mannequins in the windows seemed to be a women's underwear and lingerie shop. "C'mon Tess; Let's get you some things to go with that new dress of yours," Yoko said, leading the other woman inside, "You're welcome to come in too Klaus."

[Klaus von Zinzer]

Klaus blushes a brilliant crimson.

"I don't believe they would have anything in my size and I don't suppose I would be helpful with advice on fitting"

[Tessa Wentworth]

He wasn't the only one blushing. Tessa even stammers. "Y-Y-Yoko, this is... o-oh my..."

She does, however, follow the other woman inside.

[Yoko Lee]

"Your choice, Klaus. I'm sure we'd both appreciate the help~"

Well, it wasn't as if she'd specified the sort of help. For Yoko, the best help would have been paying for things and carrying the bags, but it was up to Tess what sort of help she'd want. Having gone inside Yoko gave an inclination of her head to the bored looking woman behind the counter, probably just counting the seconds until the shop would close up; A couple of customers coming in fifteen minutes before close... well, it was either exactly what she needed or the last thing she wanted.

"Hi there. Just stopping in to pick up some lingerie to go with a couple of dresses here quick."

Not that Yoko didn't know what she wanted herself, but Tess might need some help.

[GM Yuusha]

Tessa timidly sticks close to Yoko. She nods readily in agreement at Yoko's words. The lady at the counter does her best to smile and to head onto the shop floor to assist. There was a large range of items, so she asks questions of Yoko and Tessa to ascertain what they might like. Colours, style, comfort versus appeal, etc. French knickers were soon revealed as Tessa's go to, her Federated Suns heritage showing. She did look at other designs too, but anything further might require a nudge.

There was a lot for Yoko to choose from for herself.
