[ look when you have a lot of boob you look silly with big frilly shenanigans going on on top of them. ]
They look cute. And if you get a more form fitting shirt and a big hat you'll really look the part.
[ hm. ]
Well... does it matter either way? If you like wearing something you should wear it. [ ... hehehehe ] You should just try on whatever you were thinking of getting, and if there's something you're unhappy with we could try and figure out an alternative or a fix for it to make it more comfortable?
I just...want to find something cute to wear. [ she mumbles. ] This is the first time I've gotten to pick my clothes out and...
[ hmm.
how...does she....put this out here. functional has been a priority as well as being comfortable. and of course every girl wants to be cute!! but. this is...cute for someone else cute. maybe. ]
Then we should definitely make it special, right? It's... [ hm. ] it's been a very long time since I got to pick out my own outfit too, so I want to look good.
[ it's time to have a fashion show. ]
Have you decided on a skirt or pants, first of all? [ maybe. maybe it's better to start with the lower half and work up. ]
[ she points out a frilly petticoat inspired skirt that's a bit asymmetrical in its cut. shorter in the front to show off one's legs but not in a way that's tasteless (or age inappropriate) and longer in the back. ]
A shorter skirt with knee high boots is a pretty cute style, isn't it? Something that c, could appeal to someone.
izumo's probably close enough so she can feel the moment that phrase hits home and the sort of bubbly joy that wells up inside alex. oh! oh. that's cute.
(also oh. oh boy that makes everything last week kinda complicated doesn't it...) ]
Most guys like the same kind of thing. [ it's said. very drily. ] But you can be subtler about it, and cuter about it too. It'd suit you much better. [ also, izumo, you're babey. your skirts must be two inches below the knee. ]
[ hang on, she's going to pick up that skirt and hold it up to izumo, thoughtfully. ]
[ she'll nod along. subtler is more of her style anyway. the flashiness is just... too much. the bubbly joy from alex is infectious but alex is likely to feel the izumo's shyness with touches of excitement as that talk about planning an outfit for her.
yes. for her. ...that she may wear in front of someone else who may or may not find it appealing. e, either way!! she'll look over it thoughtfully and the answer is quite obvious to her. ]
Tights, most likely. [ hmmm. ] I don't feel comfortable showing off...that much.
[ this is cute. this is very cute. they need little happy things in this nightmare anyway, especially after all the emotional whirlwind of the weekend. ]
Okay. So... something you can wear with tights, and a top that fits with the outfit but doesn't show off too much. That's the general style we're aiming for?
[ oh. this is fun. ]
You could try some fishnet tights, if you wanted? You can get ones that are smaller, and don't show off as much skin... hold on-- [ she's digging in the tights section and pulls out a pair with very small gaps in the netting, rather than the bigger ones, and another style, emulating a sort of socks-but-in-tights-form look. ]-- or something like this?
[ emotional whirlwind is absolutely correct....looks at pcs and frowns. ]
Oh! Those are cute. [ second choice is preferred immensely. ] I'm not sure if I'd look okay in fishnets.
[ ultimately she might look good in them but isn't that taking it a step too far forward with a skirt as short as she's eyeing? she's interested in impressing but not like that!!! ]
But that sounds about right. I'm mind tank tops and shorts but...
[ ARE YOU SURE? that seems like a terrible thing to give her. ]
Yeah, from the sound of it. [ she'll look at the outfit that they've put together so far and it isn't...terrible? it looks pretty cute. hopefully cute enough??
ehhh. now she's starting to embarrass herself with these thoughts. ] It looks all okay, right?
Is that why you're being really careful with choosing your outfit?
[ alex is looking at the hats as she's speaking, letting izumo get through any blushing or awkwardness without being eyeballed by someone else the whole time. it kinda looks like she's paying attention to the feathers? ]
[ she appreciates it because izumo is also going to look away and mess with something random in the store. ]
Maybe...
[ if alex is hoping for more than that three words at a time, then it might be a while. it's not like izumo has a lot of practice with this sort of thing. (reading about it is one thing???) ]

[ just in the context of the outfit. ]
no subject
You could always try them both on and see which ones you're more comfortable in. [ and you don't know until you try! ]
[ well now they have these tights to work with, and that skirt. she holds them together. ]
Okay... so we just need a top that fits with this? And a jacket.
no subject

no subject
I wouldn't let you pick out something that didn't look okay. Go try it on!
no subject
[ well.
cue izumo trying on said clothes and feeling a little bit like a fool. SHE PROBABLY LOOKS CUTE? but. ]
no subject
That suits you! You look good.
no subject
Does it really?
[ she's just gonna look down at herself and??? it's hell of a lot better than the space outfit she had last week. ]
no subject
[ go show your boy. winkwonk. ]
no subject
…how long do you think it takes to know you like someone?
[ nvm figured it out. ]
no subject
In general? Normally if you're getting along just fine with them, that's an indicator you like them.
[ be more specific izumo ]
no subject
[ no. she will not. ]
N, never mind. It was stupid to ask.
