Iniko jumped at Jarlan's odd sudden declaration, and glanced between the two of them, confused. "What happened? Did you touch her butt or something?" Iniko ignored Jamesons laughter as Nieve spoke, glancing back over at her. "Alright, let's find some blue then." He kissed the top of her head.
Wylie only blushed more and ducked her head down. "It'snotyourfault." She muttered, shoving her hair out of her face.

Jarlan's face got redder, if possible. "Shut up Iniko, you don't help." He glanced at Wylie and then looked down again. He was trying to calm down, after all he didn't want people to see him with a red face. That and he didn't want to get too flustered and use his power, then have people wondering why they can't speak.
Nieve smiled and nodded, looking over at Jameson to lead the way to the stores. "I just realized . . . I don't know what size clothes I am." She looked down at herself, and actually looked at her curves for once. "Oh my. I have curves.. that's just... odd." She chuckled, not used to commenting about her body.

Iniko chuckled at him, watching his antics, and shaking his head. "You're silly Jarlan, but fine, I'll back off." He swung Nieve's hand lightly, before glancing over at her. "Oh. Well, I've got a good eye, and we'll buy something loose to start with."
Wylie, tilting her head and glancing over at Nieve, chuckled. "You've always had curves, Nieve, unlike me. I'm just a long skinny string bean."

Nieve nodded, and continued to swing Iniko's hand, before flushing at Wylie's comment. "I have? I never noticed." She then began looking at the different stalls she could see and smiled.
"That SO isn't true!" Jarlan covered his mouth after he blurted that out and glared slightly at Nieve who then began to laugh at him. There was no point in trying to calm down, because things were just going to get worse before they got better.

Iniko chuckled, and leaned closer to Nieve, wiggling his eyebrows suggestively in place of saying anything the others might hear. Then, glancing at the stalls she did, asked, "See anything you like?"
Wylie flushed, and turned around to face Jarlan, stepping closer to him to open her mouth and say something- honestly, she wasn't sure what, but something- but then a nearby woman rested her hand on Jarlans arm.
"Oh honey, this color doesn't work for you at all," Her voice was suggestive. "Why don't I take you into my stall and you try on a few different shirts that would look better?"

Nieve chuckled softly, putting a hand to her mouth and looked at the several stalls. "Hm.." She looked around and then gasped, pulling Iniko towards a stall that had several dresses. "That one! That one!" She pointed to it and looked up at him excitedly.Jarlan was waiting for Wylie to say something when he felt someone touch his arm. Out of instinct, he pulled his arm away and looked at the woman, hearing her comment. "...what? But this color is--" His face flushed as he realized what she was insinuating. "I'm fine. Really." He flailed his arm, trying to get the woman off of him.

Iniko gasped when she started dragging him towards a stall, laughing at bit when he saw how excited she was. "Alright." Turning to the stall keeper, and after a few glances at Nieve to figure out her size, Iniko did his best to haggle down. Though it was difficult with the stall owner knowing just how badly Nieve wanted the dress. Ten minutes later however, they walked away with it in hand.
Then minutes later, Jarlan had been all but swarmed, Wylie edged father and farther away. Women- and a few men- were all but throwing themselves at Jarlans feet, and the more uncomfortable he got, the more there seemed to be. Glaring and frowning menacingly, Wylie shoved her sleeves up, and forced her way through the crowd, standing in front of Jarlan and shouting, "He's got a girlfriend, back off!" When they did- barely, and with longing glances, Wylie grabbed his hand, before smiling sheepsihly up at him. "Sorry, it's all I could think of to get rid of them."

Jarlan kept getting nervous, the more people that were swarming him and he looked like he was a child lost in a crowd. He looked a bit surprised when Wylie popped in and said he had a girlfriend, then grabbed his hand. He smiled sheepishly back and tightened his hand in hers. "I don't mind. Thanks Wylie." He looked around and saw Nieve walking back to them.
Nieve was humming, and swinging Iniko's hand. "We found a dress guys~!" She said it in a cadence and looked at the people dispersing from Jarlan and Wylie. "Uh... what happened here?"
Jarlan shook his head. "I'm not quite sure. There was one lady trying to get me to take my shirt off one minute, then the next there were like twenty, and like five guys." He looked over at Wylie and sighed softly. "Wylie got them all to go away, thank God."
Nieve raised an eyebrow at the fact that they were holding hands and she shrugged. "Well that's weird. I wonder why..."
Jarlan shrugged. "I've got an idea.. but it's not going to be shared in front of all these people." He gave Nieve a look and she nodded, knowing better than to ask why not. "Hey Nieve, you do realize that shirt has no sleeves."
Nieve nodded. "I'll just wear my forearm protectors. I'll be okay." She smiled softly, and looked at them. "So now to find Wylie a sweater, right?"

Wylie smiled at him, and redirected the smile to Nieve when she arrived. "Really? That's awesome! It's cute!" The one thing hse was goin gto mention about it, Jarlan mentioned before she could. Squeezing his hand, happy to be holding it, Wylie chuckled. "I guess so. Off to the sweater stalls!"
Iniko nodded, and led teh way, assuming JAmeson had vanished to buy general supplies.

Jarlan turned his head and smiled sheepishly at Wylie, before following Iniko towards the sweater stall. He glanced around and noticed that the women - and men - from earlier were still looking at him longingly and it was creeping him out.
Nieve grinned. "Thank you Wylie. I think it'll look much better than these old rags." She skipped alongside Iniko and kept glancing back at Jarlan. When he finally caught her looking at him, she winked and he flushed, knowing she was just teasing him. She just chuckled and faced the front again.

Wylie noticed that Jarlan was still being accessed by the other men and women, and moved a half step closer. Leaning her head on his arm, she whispered. "Sorry. This is my fault if we go back far enough." They arrived at the sweater stall, and Wylie just blinked at them, not sure which would fit her best, or suit her best. With that thought, she inwardly sighed, wishing she could make another suit.

Jarlan felt a small shock when she leaned her head against his arm and he shook his head. "No, this isn't your fault." He said it confidently, and looked at the sweaters with her. He pointed one out, smiling. "What about that one?" It wasn't her suit but it certainly was white.

Wylie chuckled a bit. "Sure, it probably isn't, but I still regret it. I contributed." She rolled one of her shoulders in a half shrug, unfortunately it was the bare one, and the shirt slid a little further down her arm. "Course, I regret a lot of things." When he pointed out the white sweater, she tilted her head to the side. "Maybe." She glanced at the other sweaters, eventually noticing one roughly her size that looked blood red on the bottom, but got lighter as you went up until it was a soft pastel pink at the top, with a tiny flower sewn onto the shoulder. "I like that one."
Iniko stepped up, looked a the sweater, and took a moment to count their funds, standing behind Jarlan. If he haggled juuuuust right, he could get her both the white sweater, and that pink/red one. After a wink at Nieve, both for good luck and to show off, he sidled up to the lady working the both, leaned on the counter, and flashed a grin.
And so began the beguiling, and attempts at flattery, and then came the haggling.
After twenty minutes of small talk, they walked away with Wylie holding both sweaters, and a complimentary white hat with a pink removable flower that matched both. Pulling the hat on, Wylie immediately felt better. It was a beanie style hat, but it was a hat!

Jarlan had been glancing at Wylie, until the sweater fell a bit more, and then his eyes went straight back to the sweaters. He looked at the one that Wylie pointed to and smiled, nodding. Iniko came into his view - where had he even been? - and Jarlan watched as Iniko began the haggling. He was observing, which was discovered early on was how he learned best. He smiled as Wylie pulled on the beanie, and looked to see that both the girls were happy. "Do we still have enough for Nieve to get some fabric, or will that wait for another time?"
Nieve gave Iniko a small smile as he winked and for the twenty minutes glanced around. She was looking at the different people, and had overheard someone saying that they liked her hair and wondered where she had it done at. She found this a bit odd, but smiled when Wylie was handed both sweaters. Jarlan had spoken and Nieve shook her head. "I'll be fine with just this for now. After all, I could always find a way to fix this one up."

Iniko shook his had. "Nonsense. We still have enough for at least a pair of jeans each for all three of you, and a few simple shirts for Jarlan, and if I haggle well and we find something on clearance, some fabric for Nieve." Iniko rolled his sleeves up, grinning, and glanced around, slowing time down. The flash of his red eyes were actually being hidden by a pair of sunglasses he'd smooth-talked out of a lady long ago. Striding towards the stall that had jeans, he glanced betewen the three of them, and the handy-dandy sign with sizes and measurements set up. Selecting a pair of jeans that would fit each of them easily, Iniko joked and laughed with the man at the stall, but the haggling didn't go down until Iniko placed his hand on the mans arm.
Walking away, shuddering inside, Iniko moved onto a stall with shirts. Out of earshot of the stall vendor, he glanced at Jarlan. "Any shirts you like?"
