No? Well, guess it's settled then.

Down this way.

[anelegantmyth]

[She follows him without question. But once in a while she will stop to eye stalls selling books, clothes, jewellery or even weapons. She's a girl after all, and shopping is shopping no matter what dimension.]

[willwork4sugar]

[He doesn't mind the extra browsing. Besides, who knows when you might find something that catches your eye, or something you need that you hadn't thought about until you see it?

A few times he'll stop by other stalls along the way, but he won't hurry Cynthia if she sees anything interesting.]

Did you want to get anything?

[anelegantmyth]

Well there was that but...

[She eyes a black dagger a few stalls away from them. After the whole mishap with the cave and her scar. She knew she'd need to learn how to fight eventually. Can't always depend on her pokemon of even the boys to protect her, right? But her pride...oh how much it hurt her to admit she needed help. So she'll go ahead and pretend she was looking at a pretty ring or something.]

Much too expensive for me. I'm saving what's left of my money for clothes. I'm pretty sure I'd die of a heat stroke with all the black that I wear.

[willwork4sugar]

[He arches a brow, but then shrugs.]

Well, at least more often than not, there's a decent breeze when we're out at sea.

[He'll drift towards another booth as a jar of candy drops catches his eye.]

[anelegantmyth]

Well that's good to know. We barely got a breeze in the cave so I'm sure my pokemon would appreciate having one no--Gaius?

[Ok so maybe she didn't notice him float towards a booth selling candies. But at least he wasn't so far off that she'd lose sight of him. Silly man.
On the way to said booth, she may have spotted a small shop selling clothes.

You take your time with the candies, Gaius. She'll just be here buying clothes.]

[willwork4sugar]

[Oh, he will. He picks up the jar to inspect the contents before he looks over the rest of the items there to see if anything else catches his eye. You can bet he'll be asking for a sample before he commits to any purchase but they already get bonus points for looking tasty!]

[anelegantmyth]

[Gaius, she could have been recognized by the locals, taken away to be hanged and you probably wouldn't notice. Not like she was or anything, but it could have happened!

But Cynthia was just glad that the shop keeper was nice enough to let her have some of the old clothes that weren't selling. Not exactly runway ready, but free clothes was free clothes.]

[willwork4sugar]

[Hey, did he hear any screams or anything? He's not going to look for trouble if there's no trouble to be had!

...besides, if you act all anxious and stuff then people are bound to be suspicious of something. Better to go with the flow-

Which is why Gaius ends up with that jar of drops and a few pieces of caramel, and a nice big chunk of fudge. No telling how long they'll be at sea, okay?]

[anelegantmyth]

[You're lucky she wasn't anywhere near him, because she probably would have judged him for that. But she was too busy looking at a wench dress. Yes because clearly she needed a dress while on a boat, clearly.]

[willwork4sugar]

[At least he pays for his sweets. It doesn't take long for him to find Cynthia, and he wanders over once his purchases are secured.]

Found some clothes, huh?

[anelegantmyth]

Oh there you are, I was beginning to worry I'd lost you.

[That was a lie. She was more worried being in this town alone. Disguised or not, the man who gave her that scar was still out there, and she'd rather not have a run in with him without Gaius around.]

Yeah, the shopkeeper was nice enough to give me some of his surplus clothes and shoes. Isn't that great? Though I'm probably going to have to get some altered...not sure how to do that, but I will.

[willwork4sugar]

Sweet. Free goods are always nice.

If it's just a little adjustments, I might be able to help with that.

[anelegantmyth]

You can sew?

[Not that she doesn't trust you with her new clothes, Gaius. It's just that you don't look like the type to hold a needle.]

[willwork4sugar]

Yeah, why not? These clothes don't mend themselves! -not to mention come with the extra pockets.

[He nods at the cloak she's wearing with a lopsided smile.]

[anelegantmyth]

For weapons I assume?

[Well he did look like the type to carry more than one. Which is pretty cool as long as he didn't point any of them at her or anything. But oh Cynthia, how wrong you are.]

At least now I have a cloak of my own, among other things. Though I wonder if I there are any bikinis in this world?

[willwork4sugar]

....sweets, actually.

[He blinks.]

What's a bikini?

[anelegantmyth]

You mean you fill ALL these pockets with sweets? All of them?

[Don't worry, she won't laugh. Stare at him questioningly maybe, but not laugh]

And a bikini is...uh...how do I explain this? It's kind of like underwear but for swimming.

[willwork4sugar]

Yeah?

[...he's not sure if that's any better.]

...underwear for swimming.

[His turn to look at her a little questioningly.]

[anelegantmyth]

And you finish ALL those sweets by yourself?

[Hey don't give her that look. Bikinis are a normal thing to want to have when you're near a beach ninety percent of the time.]

Bikinis are a necessity for females at the beach okay? I can't just swim in my regular clothes, that'd be horrible.

[willwork4sugar]

Well...yeah. Not all in one sitting!

Guess I'm not really used to hanging around beaches for swimming.

[anelegantmyth]

Well what other reasons are there for being at a beach? Swimming, sand castles, sun bathing...I used to do a lot of that back home.

But really Gaius, I do worry worry about your health.
[She picks up her bag filled with clothes and sighs.]

All these sweets could really harm a guy...especially these ones.

[She playfully swiped his teddy bear lollipop before exiting the shop.]

[willwork4sugar]

Shell collecting, spear fishing...

[He tries not to make a face, and then sputters as she grabs Mr. Bear.]

H-hey!

[Stalking after...!]

[anelegantmyth]

[Now she's just waving the bear around like a wand while she walks. Nope, you're definitely not getting this one back, darling]

I'm doing you a favor darling, you don't need this.

[But quickens her pace when she sees him catching up to her]

[willwork4sugar]

[Dangit woman, he needs that one!]

Yes I do!

[Don't make him run after you because he so will.]
