"You sure?" She grinned, and grabbed another pair of bra off the display, a dark blue one with stripes across the cups. Holding it up to her chest, she laughed, and passed it over to Jude. Then, as if guessing what he was thinking - which wasn't hard, considering how he was looking around the shop, and she was pretty sure that he wasn't helping her to look for something suitable - she added, "Running is not worth it, just so you know... Most people believe the word of the girl, rather than the word of the man."

"Pretty sure," he said simply not really being too careful about his wording since he was plotting escape ... until Ariane just dashed his dreams as he tilted his head toward her. Jude stared at Ariane and then let out a bit of a sigh.
While he didn't care about what others said or thought about him he didn't really feel like having Ariane spin wild tales about him either while he was making his grand escape.
"Yeah, alright," he replied not even bothering to deny what he was thinking.

"Good boy," She grinned, walking up near him and petting him on his a** lightly. Subtly. She then walked away to the cashier, gesturing for him to follow, "See, that wasn't that bad, was it, Judy?" She even paid for her own stuff, although the bag holding the undergarments was handed over to Jude to hold - since he was the man and all.
"When was the last time you had fast food?"

He let her have the swag she had chosen for herself and even hung back a bit peering through a rack that had suddenly caught his attention. It had something red and pretty on it that seemed like it'd look ... nice on Ariane and whether or not he'd get to see her in it was irrelevant to him at this point. It was a gift purely for Ariane. Using things that Ariane had said she liked.
Sure it was a bit of an intimate gift to get her but it looked really nice.
When she finished paying he took the bag and then stepped up and paid for the gift he had picked out for her. The sizing of the nightgown was pretty much of a guess on Jude's part but he figured it'd fit. When the purchase was complete he just had it put in the bag with her other things and then idly sidled up to her, "Been a while, why?"
Was he pretending that didn't even happen? Maybe. He was acting surprisingly cool about having bought his co-worker a nightgown.

She did notice the gift, and in a rare act of kindness, chose not to comment on it... Even if she wanted to poke at him about how he could have her try it out first, or how he knew that it fit when he probably didn't even look at the measurements of what she bought.
Rare act of kindness.
"I feel like eating a burger all of a sudden," She petted her own stomach as she eyed the fast food restaurants around them, "With fries, and a cup of coke."

He almost expected her to rib him on it or even just somehow point out how he didn't know if it'd fit or not but instead she just continued to talk about fast food and this seemed to put him at ease for the most part.
"Yeah, that does sound pretty good. Then again considering the fact that we have been living off of MREs for a while anything sounds good," he said as he scratched at the side of his nose, "McDonalds sound good or are you prefer a different fast food place?"
Jude was mostly indifferent and rarely ate junk food even before he became a Hunter.

Ariane probably lived off junk food for a good amount of time before she became a hunter, and was forced to eat tasteless food.
"McDonalds sound perfect," She grinned, "I think I want... A Quarter Pounder with Cheese, with coke as my drink." Since the thought of it was making her drool a little, she grabbed Jude and started heading for the closest McDonalds, "What would you like?"

He walked along instead of making her push him or pull him he let out a small thoughtful hum before he said, "A double quarter pounder sounds good to me, two of them. With fries," then he seemed to think a moment longer, "with Mountain Dew."
That's right. Go all out.
At the counter he squinted a little bit up at the menu. Ugh. Words. All fuzzy.
When it seemed the lady behind the counter was ready for the order he placed his first not really needing to read the menu, luckily.

And then Ariane placed her order as well, paying for them both, and asking for the receipt. She left Jude to carry the tray while she looked around for a seat, settling on the one near the back of the McDonald's. When Jude had made himself comfortable, she took the receipt, and held it up with a grin, "Let's go dutch."

He was essentially Ariane's b***h for the day and took this in stride. When the order was ready he followed after her and soon settled in the seat across from her. Jude settled his meal in front of him and blinked over at her, "...After you paid for it? Or are you saying I need to pay you back for my half now?"
Is that what was being suggested? If so he started to go for his wallet again.

"Yup, just for your half of the meal," She laughed, sliding the receipt towards him before removing the food off the tray, mountain dew for him, coke for her, "I hadn't had this for over a year." She stared at the burger in her hands, slowly unwrapping it, savoring every moment, "I can't believe I took real food for granted before this."
Biting into the burger, she sighed happily; the juice from the patty squirted out into her mouth, and the cheese... Ah, how she missed the taste of the slice of cheese they use in burgers.
It was like sex. For the tongue.

He took a few moments to count out his money and then laid it out on Ariane's side of the table along with the receipt in case she cared to double check it, not that he would short her any money. With his end of the 'debt' settled he ate his food enjoying the grease, the cheese, the french fries, everything.
While Jude didn't look like he was savoring his meal as much as Ariane was - he was enjoying it.
Just with a little less ecstasy and enthusiasm.
"What clothing shop did you want to hit after this or we gonna just wander around until something grabs your fancy?" He asked idly. He was sort of enjoying his time with Ariane, but don't tell her.

She took the money without counting it, mainly because she trusted Jude enough to know that he wouldn't short change her.
"Not sure," She replied in between mouthfuls of burger, opening showing her enjoyment, ignoring the staring passersby and other restaurant patrons. Swallowing, she took a sip of coke before shrugging, "Just gonna look around. Need something easy to move in. Maybe some shorts, a bathing suit... It depends on what we can find."

Her answer was met with a short nod, "Fair enough," he replied readily. Jude wasn't sure where or why she would need a bathing suit but whatever she wanted. He opened a couple packs of ketchup and then started enjoying his french fries a bit more.
"...Kinda a shame we have to go back again soon and have to deal with all that," he said thoughtfully almost wishing for a bit of a longer vacation then he dismissed it with a shrug.

"Anything you want to buy?" Having finished with her burger, she went on to the fries, choosing to have them plain; she might also be stuffing the extra packets of ketchup into her pocket, "Yeah... But we get time off every month, I think, so there's that to look forward to. Provided we don't die or something, before then."
