[desiretoplease]

Do I have to? You look real dapper in that suit. Platonically dapper, but still dapper.

[pursuitofcappiness]

Well, no, but I can't go buy more clothes in full armor. It's hard to take off in the dressing room.

[desiretoplease]

Oh, all right. I'll bring ya something to wear. Only if I get to go clothes shopping with you!

[pursuitofcappiness]

Deal, I'm just in a bedsheet at the moment. Feels like the Little Mermaid.

[desiretoplease]

Just so long as ya don't try and comb your hair with a fork, I think you'll be fine.

[about half an hour later, she shows up with this outfit]

Hope it fits, didn't get much time t'be choosy.

[pursuitofcappiness]

[ Steve answers the door in a robe and pajama pants, which is what he was wearing while doing laundry. ]

Thank you.

I'll be just a second.

[ He goes to put it on and uh, yeah it's a little tight but it's fine, they're getting more clothes. ]

Where'd you get these?

[desiretoplease]

[and while most people wouldn't be blamed for eating the eye candy, Misty's never been most people]

'Least I could do.

There's a men's clothing shop with tortoise people for tailors. The customer service ain't great, but they do know how to design menswear.

[pursuitofcappiness]

Oh, great. I kind of like the spirit folk. No need to talk too much to them.

And they're great listeners.

[ Misty this is why you're friends. ]

Promise I'll let you pick out at least three things for me.

[ For some reason people love dressing him up. He doesn't get it, But he can't complain. ]

[desiretoplease]

Yeah. 'Cept when th'tortoise folk forget halfway to th'rack which pair o'pants I pointed to.

They are. Can't really blame 'em much, they are tortoise people, I guess. Slow's gotta be part o'the package.

[and Misty's glad they are, she grew up mostly alone]

Really? This is gonna be fun.

[well, she's asexual, she's not blind. and weirdly, that takes the pressure off]

[pursuitofcappiness]

[ He's a little worried now, but he should have expected that reaction. For some reason people always seem to like dressing him up. He doesn't get it. ]

Well, the tortoise people are slow, but at least they got it done.

I'm not in a hurry, anyway. I just maybe need more than one pair of pants. Though, these are nice. Thanks!

[desiretoplease]

[awww, she'll play nice! she hates it when people disparage her style, so she wouldn't want to do it to him]

Yeah, same could be said fer a lotta the spirit folk. It's kinda amazin'.

Everyone needs more pairs o'pants. If I wore 'em, I like my dresses and long skirts th'best.

[pursuitofcappiness]

I noticed. They really suit you.

[ He smiles. ]

But I don't think I'd look very good in a dress.

[desiretoplease]

[and Misty grins from ear to ear] Thank ya! Thank ya, Steve. All I'm tryna do is honor Stevie Nicks. Momma played "Rhiannon" for me when I was a little girl an' I was lost. It's one o'my favorite memories, me and momma tryna sing along. Ever since, Stevie's been my role model.

[pursuitofcappiness]

Oh? You'll have to show me sometime, I'm not familiar with Stevie Nicks.

[ Having been asleep that whole time, anyway. ]

[desiretoplease]

Yer not? [Steve, you have no idea what you've just done] I got all of her music, both with Fleetwood Mac and her solo albums, ya gotta let me lend you some. She's amazin', so talented! And she's the White Witch, she's a legend back home!

[pursuitofcappiness]

Oh, really? I'll give her a listen.

[ He's going to sound so dumb so he's not going to ask what Fleetwood Mac is. Is that a person? Is that a band? ]

[desiretoplease]

Great! Great! Yer not gonna regret it, she's the best of all time!!

[she's almost puppyish in her enthusiasm. like a golden retriever who can bring people back from the dead]

Now, whaddaya wanna start with first, pants or shirts? Prob'ly some sweaters and a decent coat, too, it's gettin' cold.

[pursuitofcappiness]

Maybe let's start with the shirt, those are always harder for me to fit.

[ Possibly because he is dorito shaped. ]

Just a button-down's fine.

[desiretoplease]

I kin imagine. You're kinda a special type t'fit, as I'm sure y'know.

[and Misty is tall and lanky with very little bustline]

Button-downs are nice. Always in fashion and can be tailored. But y'might wanna try a sweater or two? No garish colors, somethin' earth-toned like cream or shades of brown and green.

[pursuitofcappiness]

Sweater might be nice for the cold. I'll layer it over the shirt.

Is that. Is that still in style?

[ Sorry Misty, he has no idea. You're like, his stylish friend. ]

[desiretoplease]

That's always in style, as long as you don't mind the whole preppy, Ivy League thing. Which I don't mind, even though they're always a reminder of what coulda been. It's still a real handsome combo.

[she wanted to go to high school. and college. and her father refused her both]

[pursuitofcappiness]

Not sure I could pull that off. I never finished college.

[ Definitely not an Ivy League. He was going to see if he could further his education here, actually. ]

[desiretoplease]

Awww, it don't matter none! I never went to high school! But I could see pictures in the magazines and catalogues and that was enough t'help me to understand. Just act confident and none are gonna say nothin'.

[because Misty was Ivy League caliber smart, but her pa forced her to drop out before high school because he needed a slave caretaker]

[pursuitofcappiness]

Oh, no it doesn't matter, I just don't think that's the style I want.

[ Sorry Misty. He can't dress like a prep, he isn't one. ]

[desiretoplease]

That's fine! They got all kinds o'stuff. Though, shades of blue would go great with yer eyes.
