[cranekin]

(He listens to her request and makes a note of it. So this one is no good so he swaps to another one, and another, and another... he skips a few that are definitely too short and a few others that are too tight or revealing in different ways.

There are others that are much more modest but he skips those, too. Too boring. Not the right color. The wrong shape...

And he stops on one dress.)

What if it's long in the back?

[queenofkur]

[ Oh no, it looks so good. She can already imagine herself wearing it and twirling around like the princesses in the books. ]

Aaah... [She can hesitate and lie, but the look on her face doesn't lie.] D-Do you think this would be alright? People wouldn't judge me for being that daring?

[ That's the only thing stopping her! ]

[cranekin]

(She wears her emotions on her face so easily and it's really endearing.)

I don't think they'll judge you at all, Erechan. I think they'll be totally surprised! In a good way.

(He'll drag the holographic screen in the air so it hovers next to her. The color looks good. It suits her well and he thinks this will be a good look.)

Trust me. I know style.

[queenofkur]

[ He sounds confident about it... Much more than she is. Well, she can trust his judgement, right? Even if she's unsure, all she has to do is believe him. ]

I-I think I'll go with it then! [She looks so excited, it's like she's a flea about to leap.] Thank you Tsururu!

[ She (very briefly) gives him a side hug. Unfortunately she's neither drunk nor emotionally compromised, that's the best she dares to do when she's normal. ]

Y-You don't mind me calling you Tsururu? I found it has a nice ring to it.

[cranekin]

You're welcome, Erechan.

(Ah, he wasn't expecting that at all but he leans into it all the same. He'll even give her a pat on the head. Is it appropriate to pet a goddess? Especially without a good reason? Hm. Well, he's doing it.)

Of course it's fine. (And he grins,) Like you said, it has a good ring to it. Tsururu and Erechan. We sound like a dynamic duo that way, don't you think?

[queenofkur]

[ He's allowed. He's one of the few people who what pat her head and she won't protest. ]

Right!

[ She claps excitedly and goes back to the holo-catalog, switching pages. ]

Now we need to find something for you! [Something that'll make him shine brightly amongst all others!] We'll be the shining stars of this gala!

[cranekin]

(#Blessed by a death.

It's back to the catalogs for the two of them. This time, he flips through a few screens that clearly don't interest him before pausing at a section with suits and other western attire, )

This sort of fashion is popular these days.

(He's observant of the trends,)

It's different from what I'm used to. What do you think? Should I try something trendy and new? Or act my age?

(Wear something more traditional....)

[queenofkur]

You should... [A dramatic pause-] Do what's fun!

[ Isn't that the obvious answer? Who cares how old he is! ]

I am much older than you, and yet you still encouraged me to wear this daring dress. [Sorry Tsururu, you're kind of a baby on the time scale compared to her.] If you want to wear something trendy and new, you absolutely should do it. Of course, if you'd rather wear something traditional it's fine too.

[ On a personal level she thinks suits are a very good look... But he should go with what he likes most! ]

Which do you like most?

[cranekin]

Ehhh, I always forget how old you are, Erechan.

(It's a compliment, really. Don't most women want to be thought of as younger than they really are? At least, that's what he's observed in the past.)

Something easy to move in.

(Which means he swipes to the next screen because the designs on the previous one seemed a little too formfitting for his taste. He's always had a sense of fashion but he's also always leaned more on the comfortable and looser side of things. Maybe it's because he's such a twig...... he needs to make himself look bigger.)

It's a ball so if you aren't going to dance, you might as well not even go.

[queenofkur]

[ Ah, she's so happy to hear him say. He's totally right, may are the women who want to be thought of as younger, especially that goddess. ]

Right!

[ Ehehe, something more comfy to dance in then it is. She looks at his selection... Mhm. ]

Color coordination is important too. I think white with gold outlines really suits you... [A pause.] But maybe going for something different could be fun too. What if you went with black and metallic blue?

[ Most people wouldn't even recognize him! ]

[cranekin]

Something like an azure magpie?

(A clever bird known for swooping and causing trouble like most magpies.)

Mhm, everyone would be surprised to see me. I don't think the Clown Prince would recognize me at all!

(The clown prince... Callisto.)

[queenofkur]

An azure magpie?

[ S-She has no idea what this is! Is that a sort of cake? Please forgive her, she'd never even seen birds until fairly recently! And it's not one she's read about in any of her books about the human world... ]

Ehehe, everyone would wonder "who is this mysterious handsome young man?"

[ Tuxedo Tsuru!! Okay maybe he's not wearing a literal Tuxedo, but that's the vibe it's giving. ]

I didn't know you'd met Callisto.
