Mission Twelve

[skysmirror]

[Xion's Cambot has been having fun catching all the wardrobe changes lately, and apparently they aren't finished, because he catches Xion walking down the hall in another new outfit, carrying her normal clothes.

Here, see, it's pretty.

Though, uh-oh, now she's caught him. She hugs the clothes she's carrying to her chest, as if that can make up for the low neckline. If it's possible look slightly uncomfortable yet resigned at the same time, she does.]

You're recording again, aren't you?

[Isa passes her as she walks down the hall]

Xion?

Action

[skysmirror]

[She nods.]

Yeah, Rarity wanted me to try this. She and Namine made it.

Re: Action

[beforethemoon]

And do you... like it? [He can tell that she seems uncomfortable.]

Action

[skysmirror]

[Her expression turns thoughtful.]

It's pretty, but...I'm not used to this kind of thing.

Re: Action

[beforethemoon]

Yeah, hmm, maybe if it wasn't strapless?

[He takes his jacket off and holds it out to her, she can use it if she wants]

Action

[skysmirror]

Maybe.

[And if just didn't show of quite so much skin all around--she's used to being pretty covered up.

She looks at the offered jacket blankly for a moment, then realizes what it implies.]

Oh! Thank you, but I promised I'd wear it like this for a while.

[beforethemoon]

I see...

Action

[skysmirror]

This must seem pretty silly.

[virtualunknown]

[...well, he approves, but he's not sure what to say.]

Ah...

...

Would you like me to find you a coat or anything?

[skysmirror]

[She ducks her head a little, and it's pretty obvious she's blushing a little.]

It's okay, I promised I'd wear it for a while like this.

[She'd just forgotten how much Cambot likes to broadcast whenever she tries some different clothes.]

[virtualunknown]

If you're sure. It is nice, though.

[skysmirror]

[That gets a small smile out of her. She's still blushing, though.]

Thanks. It is pretty, I'm just not used to clothes like these.

[virtualunknown]

I think they suit you.

[skysmirror]

Really?

[Blushing so much her cheeks might well be made permanently red.]

Rarity and Namine thought it would too. That's why they asked me to try it.

[virtualunknown]

Do you think you'll try others another time?

[skysmirror]

Maybe, if they ask. Rarity likes making clothes for everyone, and Namine helps her a lot.

[She's happy to try things on for them, though Fashion is something she's not that into. This first one just took her a bit by surprise.

Also, is that an indication he'd like to see if she does try on others?]

[wavesinherheart]

Mmm, it is. It's a very nice dress, though.

[skysmirror]

[Really, why does Cambot like catching her wardrobe changes so much. Sigh.]

I thought so.

It is--just, it's not what I'm used to.

[wavesinherheart]

It's not what I'd be used to either. Not really.

[skysmirror]

[So it's not just her. Xion visibly relaxes.]

I guess I'll just have to try to see what I like.

[She's good at that, at least.]

[wavesinherheart]

I'm sure Rarity would be willing to help you find something that works.

[skysmirror]

She and Namine made this for me, actually.

[wavesinherheart]

I suppose I shouldn't be surprised.

[buildingproblem]

Looks, er, very cute.

[Must resist urge to make himself feel old by giving into the urge to cover her somehow. He is not anyone's dad dammit!]

[skysmirror]

[Aww, but Xion likes her not!dads Harry and Hughes.

He could pretend he thought she might be cold? Though she promised to wear it like this, so she'd say no thanks.]

Thanks, Harry.
