truly great rpers...

[acquirement]

{ ayato does the same as they finally step forward, and he'll request the exact same crepe as nen -- ensuring it has peanut butter as the other had suggested.

and before nen can say anything, he's swiping his phone over the device to pay for them both. }

Thank you.

{ and now they can wait to the side for collection, since they do seem to be freshly made here }

[essenceborn]

Oh... Thank you.

[ What is it with all these perfect men paying for their food all the time!! ]

I will pay for the next one!

[ It doesn't take too long for their crepes to be made; 5mins each at the most, and Nen is eager as theirs is handed over; they take a bite straight away. ]

[acquirement]

{ nen clearly has good friendos }

Very well, we can take turns. Though I'd consider this payment for the peanut smoothies you promised sometime.

{ he smiles, waiting for his to be made after nen's and he'll take a bite. it's certainly different to anything he's had before, at least the texture and consistency. }

Would you like to sit down while we eat, or use the time to walk to the shops?

[essenceborn]

Let's eat and walk! That way we cover more ground and use our time more efficiently.

[ Also known as 'Nen is excited and wants to do everything at once.' Eating and walking, at least, is easy enough to do. They have done this many times by now!! Yuuto spoils them ]

[acquirement]

Very well. Please let me know if you grow tired, we can stop and take a break as needed.

Were there any shops in particular you wanted to visit?

{ he's fine with it as well, and nen is right, they will cover more ground this way. as much as his concern for them is rather genuine, he'll just have to keep an eye out there. }

[essenceborn]

Okay, I will.

[ Nen's stamina for walking long distances has increased a lot since their first quest together to stop the clothes-stealing skeletons, but it's still nowhere near Ayato's. A day out int he city though? Should be fine. ]

I want to try a shoe store! I have never been to one--and. There is a store that sells weird T-shirts. I would like to go there as well.

[acquirement]

{ as long as ayato remembers to keep a slower pace for them anyway. }

Do you only have one pair of shoes then? We should certainly find you some others. Though I'm... not sure which store that one is, you will have to lead us there.

[essenceborn]

I have one pair of shoes, and one pair of winter boots.

[ So...yes, Nen could use more shoes. Especially since the loafers they tend to wear don't match some of the new clothes they bought on their second date with Chipp a little while ago. ]

I have done store-research, so please leave everything to me. I marked them on a map. I have finally learned how to read maps for outdoor areas and cities.

[acquirement]

I see. Though I think I probably should consider buying more as well. I'll finally have a suitable wardrobe soon, so I'll have somewhere to put everything.

{ because the ones at the apartments are TINY and he's wishing for his from home... that was custom made........... }

But I see, in which case I'll be in your care.

[essenceborn]

What's a wardrobe?

[ Nen is a peasant and therefor only uses closets, sorry Young Master. BOUGIE BOY. ]

[acquirement]

{ wow!!! }

It's a place you can store clothes.

{ and honestly since it's nen, there's no wondering why they don't know--he just answers honestly. }

[essenceborn]

[ CALLIN IT AS I SEE IT ]

Like a closet or dresser?

[ His willingness to answer everything and anything they ask is one of the reasons they like him so much. They're sure it must take a lot of patience to deal with them. ]

[acquirement]

I believe so, yes. They're just different styles of furniture with the same purpose.

{ ayato has patience in spades, they're all good here. }

[essenceborn]

Is it better to have one of those, or a closet or dresser? Or is it just a design choice? I have been learning about those.

[ Nen doesn't really understand the concept in practice, but the theory behind is as sound as aesthetics and subjective likes/dislikes ever get. ]

[acquirement]

I believe it's just a design choice. Potentially decided based on space in a room? I'm not certain.

[essenceborn]

So if you had a lot of space...you would use one of those?

[ They don't know what a wardrobe is, but it sounds like it's bigger than a closet...or at least, takes up more space in the room its in, since it isn't built out of the wall.

They're getting pretty close to one of the shops though, and as soon as Nen spies it they lift a hand to point it out. ]

This is the shoes and stockings shop!

[ And by "shoes and stockings" they mean "shoes, stockings, and fun underwear." ]

[acquirement]

I imagine so? I don't have lots of furniture, so it's never been an issue.

{ he also has a whole ass estate so ... you know.

though his eyes jump to the sign when nen points it out... only to look very confused. }

I admit, this is not what I was expecting.

[essenceborn]

What were you expecting?

[ They ask, already pulling open the door to hold it for him. This is the only store they've been to specializing in shoes and socks (and fun underwear), so Nen just assumed all stores of that nature were like this. ]

[acquirement]

{ he'll step in behind them but. }

Most don't tend to sell undergarments alongside shoes or socks.

{ he is trying to not be judgemental of the place, but how does a place like this sell good quality shoes or underwear when this is a strange combination to have.

unless all they stock is stripper heels- }

[essenceborn]

[ THEY DEFINITELY HAVE SOME, JUST SAYIN'. ]

Is that in all worlds though? Maybe sometimes they do.

[ Who's to say, really?? Not Nen, that's for sure. They're more curious than confused, and step easily past Ayato to go further into the store and begin sussing out socks.

Like this. ]

[acquirement]

{ nen please don't try them, you'll break your neck- }

Well, I thought I'd seen most of them here... but apparently not.

{ though he's pretty sure he's seen those called stockings rather than socks. }

Is this something you'd been hoping to wear?

[essenceborn]

I think so. I like clothes that feel tight and smooth. They feel the best.

[ Like a hug from your clothes because no one else in your science experiment life will give you one i mean what ]

I think if the legs are not connected and cover my waist though, they will fall down if I move too much. These are somewhat impractical.

[acquirement]

{ BUT WHAT ABOUT YOUR HUSBANDOS HERE, NEN??? }

Really? Hmm, how interesting. I suppose I do miss the silk of my clothes from home, but having anything too tight would restrict movement.

Admittedly, this is not an area I have experience with.

{ aka you're on your own here, nen... }

[essenceborn]

[ WELL YES THEY GET HUGS *NOW* but before... ]

Is silk like tights? You should try some, you can find a pair you like if you do.

[ Nen looks over a few of the sexy stockings on display, before selecting a pair or two and holding it out to him. ]

These ones look soft! Try them.

[acquirement]

{ good they better get all the hugs all the time to make up for before!!! }

I couldn't say. Well, I suppose once I've tried them. Though I don't believe we're supposed to try these, are we? They're still in wrapping.

{ he looks at the pictures surrounding them. }

How are they supposed to stay up?
