[OPEN] Clothes Shopping/Cafe Millennia Mingle

[odinpusrex]

WHO: Everyone!
WHEN: Early-Mid July
WHERE: Roxx & Cafe Millennia!
WHAT: Shopping and Cafe'ing!
NOTES\WARNINGS: No warnings for now, will update as needed!

With the new haul of arrivals comes the obvious need for new clothes! After all, whatever they showed up in might not facilitate daily living, or at the very least comfort. Fortunately for everyone, new or otherwise, there is Roxx! The range of fashion available is...interesting, considering how it seems to reflect the worlds each person is from, leaving no one wanting in terms of variety. Apparently updating when new people from different worlds arrive. Pretty convenient, that. As fortunate as it is, it might also be overwhelming, depending on who you ask. But perhaps that's where others might be of help! For the fashionably challenged, there might be an angel of fashion waiting to help you out.

With it being summer, there's also swimwear to be considered, especially with the chance of pool parties in the imminent future. Some styles may seem familiar, while others outlandish by your world's standards. Just like any of the clothes really, seeing as one can find clothing that is uncomfortably close to their personal style. In fact, they might very well find their exact outfit here from the looks of it. How odd!

After all their shopping shenanigans, people might find themselves migrating over to the new cafe that Sandalphon opened called Cafe Millennia. A perfect place to continue enjoying each other's company after a fruitful bit of clothes shopping! Or maybe that's where you've started at, coffee first, shopping after. There really is no wrong way to do it!

(ooc: Hey there, just wanted to toss up a little log for people who maybe wanted to do some clothes shopping or cafe threads with the possibility of running into random people! Just some low effort shenanigans and fun! Please feel free to use this log as you see fit, make your own top levels, tag around, whatever!)

[If Angel isn't in the common room at the apartments, or wandering the streets people watching, then he is at Roxx. He's been slowly filling his closet for no real reason, if he's honest, aside from the fact that it makes him feel better about all of this.

And Hell sometimes he's met people along the way here. I mean everyone needs clothes.

Course today his shopping partner is someone familiar. The woman he's seen so often at Harry's, his other regular haunt.]

I've seen worse, fuck I've worn worse. [Though blue is so not his colour so he'll pass.] Ya must be lookin' for ya leathers huh?

[agoddessonce]

[ The mention of her leathers makes her smile. It's nice that he remembers that from their first conversations, but she shakes her head. ]

No, not any of my leather. I was looking for something to swim in, and this... [ She lifts the flimsy bikini once, then puts it back in the rack. ] I know it won't last even one lap across the pool.

And you, Angel? Are you looking for anything specific today?

[bad_habit]

Yeah that ain't one ya swim in. That's more for loungin' which t'be honest is more my vibe. I don't swim. [When every inch of you is covered in fur its impractical, he didn't even like it much when this whole place was slogged with rain and not just because the rain was just a little fucky.]

Naw, I just like comin' t'see whats stocked up after the 'newbies' get dropped off. [A pause.] So you a one piece or a two piece kinda guy?

[agoddessonce]

Even lounging in that is generous. [ She's just kidding, of course, but it's fun to keep it going. ] I feel like even a little movement will snap the straps and have one giving an accidental show.

I like both types easily, [ One piece or two piece, she means. She takes a one piece out for now though, something that's colorful and with a nice, solid racer back. ] as long as they do as advertised. Like provide ample support.

[bad_habit]

Sounds like a fun pool party back home. [He teases as the other pulls out a different option, which is also kinda nice.]

Your skin tone would do lovely with some bright colours like that. But I dunno you have some sexy ass thighs girl, you need something higher cut.

[He marks on his own hip line, not that he has much hip. From the chest down he’s a pencil.] Somethin' t'get just a sneak peak of them cheeks.

[Angel. Stop.]

[agoddessonce]

[ She rolls her eyes a little, unable to resist a smile. ]

I'm not looking to give a sneak peek. I expect there will be younger children using the pool.

But I'll consider something higher cut, for after hours.

[bad_habit]

[Oh yeah, kids. He keeps forgetting about the youth, he hasn't had to deal with them for so long.]

I so ain't used t'dat. The kids we got are pretty fuckin' used t'that sorta shit. [Hellspawn kids are built differently, and he doesn't interact with them much either.]

Night dips huh? Somethin' t'be said about that.

So ya just tryin' t'find somethin' in general or you got somethin' in mind anyway?

[agoddessonce]

I was looking through the options. [ ... which, doesn't really answer his question, does it? Hmm. ]

I will probably take a more modest suit, but it doesn't hurt, having a selection to pick from, for future swims. I like a little variety, a bit of color.

And how about you? If you are not looking to swim, what do you think you'll be going home with today?

[bad_habit]

[It most certainly does not, but he doesn't really press. He isn't the sort.]

I mean, ya can do the whole babysittin' club thing but that doesn't mean ya shouldn't have you time. Especially when they got stuff like this. [He pulls out a bikini that offers a little more in the coverage department and adorned with bright sunflowers carefully embroidered throughout offering it to the other.] That with a lil green cover up and you'd be the hottest thing in town.

[As for what he's likely to end up with? Probably another something or other to shove in a closet and probably not get much opportunity to wear. I mean really, it's not like there'd ever be some Etrayan fashion show. Probably]

I dunno. They got a lotta nice dresses this time around, flowin' things with low backs which works in my favour with the whole arm thing.

[agoddessonce]

Is there any merit, to being the hottest thing in this town? [ She says it teasingly, but she takes his suggested two-piece anyway. Lucky for him, he's accidentally found one of her weaknesses - Ororo really likes flowers and growing things. The sunflowers are a charming touch. ]

[ To his own choice, she makes a pleased little sound of approval. ] Low back dresses are divine, aren't they? I love how breezy they are.

But I wish you could meet an associate of mine, from home. He was a well-regarded designer and made the most beautiful, wonderful pieces for my people. He has two sets of arms himself, and so he knows intimately how important it is to make things specifically for the mutant community.
