[Kai has now passed offended and gone straight to horrified.]
And that was before the nose picking!!
no subject
*Selphie is so outraged by this that she lets go of Kai for a moment and wobbles*
What the hell? Was he drunk? He's such an idiot... Sometimes it weirds me out that that guy is my captain.
*Still, she attaches herself again and smiles - Ace meant well, and she trusted him even if he was utterly bizarre and gross*
no subject
[She holds Selphie up and helps her wobble along as she rants.]
no subject
Guess I'd better get round to the manners lessons once I get back on board. Captains really shouldn't be going round doing stuff like that, especially not to pretty ladies!
no subject
[To be honest, Kai still doesn't have the marketplace figured out. She can get them there, but that's about the extent of it. She wouldn't even begin to know where to start shopping for shoes.]
What did he expect? For me to throw myself at his feet and beg to join up with him? Um, no. He told me it wouldn't be a problem or damage my reputation, but how am I supposed to take the word of a guy with someone else's tooth in his pocket?
no subject
*While Selphie can sometimes find herself feeling indignant about her sex, she probably doesn't feel the ignorance of it quite so keenly as Kai*
Probably it's a good idea not to listen to too much of what he says. I mean, I joined cause he offered me chicken. And I was hungry. So he's generous, and that's nice, but he talks a whole load of nonsense.
*And ta da - they must be at a shoe shop/stall by now?*
no subject
Shoes are complicated, Selphie.
[That's an understatement.]
no subject
*Selphie lets go of Kai so that she can go closer to a pair and take a better look. She picks one up and pings at the various straps that criss cross over it*
What...is this?
no subject
[She tugs at one, but as far as she can tell, it doesn't serve any sort of purpose.]
Are they just decorative? They don't seem to attach in a way that makes sense.
[Kai picks up another pair that's inexplicably covered in metal studs.]
These look kinda dangerous. This is supposed to attract guys?
no subject
*She turns to the pair that Kai is holding, raising a brow at the various studs*
Huh? That is so weird. I'm gonna guess that they're not actual man magnets though...
*Selphie spies a bright pair of pink shoes with large platforms*
This...might be easier than heels. But it doesn't look as awesome.
no subject
[Kai grimaces and looks around for something a bit less...bright.]
If you can only afford one pair, you should make sure you get something that will match as much as possible. Red or black for me.
[She manages to find a black pair, but then hold them out and shows Selphie the stiletto heels with a horrified look on her face.]
Wouldn't these just snap off?!
no subject
Yeah! Those look like the kinda thing!
*As a test to her question, she leans forward and pinches one of the stiletto heels and tries to wriggle it back and forward*
Seems pretty stuck to me...
no subject
[It looks like it should fit her, but she's afraid to even try to stand on it. If she's going to try something on, it's going to be something she's not going break accidentally. She hands the other shoe over to Selphie and makes her way further back, looking for anything she might actually be able to wear.]
Hey, Selphie, do boots count as long as they have heels?
[She could probably manage that. Probably. And there's a rack of really nice ones that seem to be on sale. Out of style, maybe?]
no subject
Boots with heels? Sure, they count too! Least, I don't see why not. Found a pair that you like?
*She wobbles a moment on the stilettos, but at least she's still standing*
no subject
So much work! Usually I just have to worry about matching colors and then things can be tailored to fit, but...well, I guess you just try them on...
[She mutters to herself, talking through the entire process until she manages to find a pair that fits, then stands and wobbles a bit herself.]
They look good at least! I don't know about going anywhere in them, but I can wear them!
no subject
*Selphie raises a brow at this concept then, glancing light and right, attempts to jump up and down on the spot to see if she can land on her feet. It works, just about. When she sees Kai's boot though, her eyes light up and she claps her hands*
Kai! Wow! You look awesome!
no subject
[Kai turns side to side and shows off a bit.]
I should buy them then! Are you gonna get those?
[She tries to crouch a little to see the shoes Selphie is wearing, but almost falls on her head.]
I'll, um, assume they look as good from up close as they do from far away...
no subject
*She keeps her hands clasped and nods her head up and down slowly, as though this will prove the point*
Yeah! I will! But I wanna buy red ones instead!
*Selphie performs so awkward moves, taking off her shoes, putting on the ones she's borrowed, and picking up the new red pair*
We are gonna look awesome close up and from far away!
no subject
[Kai pays the shopkeeper for the boots (There goes all of her share of the money...) and decides to keep wearing them, since it's easier to carry her sandals.]
Now I just need to find a guy who'll appreciate all the hard work I'm putting in.
no subject
*Selphie definitely reads too many stupid romance novels, but she still feels that this is excellent reasoning*
Sadly they don't have stalls for those - but I can keep window shopping for you anyway!
no subject
[Selphie should probably loan Kai some of those romance novels. At least then she could get some vicarious romance in.]
Maybe I should try falling down on purpose. I mean, not right here, obviously, but somewhere in a nice area on a nice island...
[Though obviously she's capable of getting dumb ideas perfectly well on her own.]
no subject
*Yes. That should happen. So that they can gush about them too and swap gossip about characters. Vicarious romance is always fun*
Yeah that -
*Something clicks in Selphie's brain, that she hadn't thought of before, but it seems like such a good idea. Containing her excitement, though, Selphie speaks slowly*
Hey... You haven't met a guy called Aya before, have you? He's on my ship. He helped me once, when I fell.
no subject
[Selphie now has Kai's undivided attention. She hasn't met many of the guys on Selphie's crew and really didn't want to after that whole thing with Ace, but she's willing to hear her out on this one.
Nevermind that that sounds like a girl's name, but whatever!]
no subject
*Though, maybe it'd be a good idea if Ikki didn't hear her say that. But it was definitely true*
He's very nice, very charming. When I fell he picked me up and carried me and put me in a cart because he was worried about my ankle. It was like something from a fairy tale, I promise!
*It happened quite a while ago, but that was what she was reminded of when he lifted her*
So he's very strong. And he fights with a sword, too, which is pretty cool. He's kinda...the strong, silent type, if you know what I mean.
*And she's sure that Kai will have some idea of what that is. Selphie grins at Kai, amazed that she hadn't thought of Aya before!*
no subject
The strong, silent type...I hope I get to meet him before we leave...
[Otherwise, she's just going to have to daydream about it instead and that just isn't the same.]
Do you think he'd like me?
