"Oh I see..." Siobhan wasn't sure how either. She wasn't a convincing sort of ghoul. "Perhaps when you next see him you can ask for his um.. cedit card."
"They do! We must find you a very warm coat." Something puffy and warm and putting together everything she knew to be "in" that year. "According to Teen Scream, the thing to wear right now is stripes! And purple is the new black. OH. And it needs to have fur, and zippers. LOooooooots of zippers."

"Purple?" Terra repeated. "Oh, I do like pockets, so zippers would be good!" She headed inside, her eyes taking in everything with a hint of wonder. "How do they get so many clothes that look exactly alike?" she asked as she stopped next to a rack. "They must have very hardworking seamstresses in the back!"
Oh, but she was looking for something striped--and furred--and zipper-y, right? Or was it the fur that was striped and zipper-y? Did they HAVE zipper-y fur?

"I do not know! Perhaps they have very obsessed gnomes at work.." Siobhan cocked her head to the side with a hum. She knew nothing of the inner workings of stores and shops.
Siobhan buried herself in 'work', fumbling through stacks of coats and jackets. She pulled one out after the other, hopping toward Terra under a pile of coats. "I found one with pompoms! And one with faux rips and tears! And one with lots of fur! And an invisible one! And.."

"But--what is the point of buying a coat when it is already in tatters?" she asked. "I have always been taught to be careful with my things," she admitted--although was that not appropriate here? Were they supposed to be rougher on their items of clothing?
"And I do not see the invisible one," she said, all the while looking really, REALLY hard. "What will you do when you put it down somewhere and cannot find it when you need it again?" Possibly fumble around touching everything? Although she assumed it would be a very nice coat--for a blind person.

"No no no! The tattered look is in, you see!" Siobhan shoved it at Terra, dropping others on the floor.
. . .
"Um.. good question. I wonder.." Where had she dropped the invisible jacket..

"Si, I see, but the wind will get in, and then I will be back to freezing, no?" Terra explained, picking up the furry one and looking at it curiously. "What do you do when you speak to una--a animal type being while wearing this?" she asked. "I do not wish to offend them! They are people, too, no?"
So fur and tattered and invisible were out. She picked up a striped black and purple coat, holding it up. It had a ton of zippers on it. "Something like this?" she asked. "It has zippers!" In very strange places.

"I do not imagine they take the fur of citizens.." Siobhan said with a baffled expression. "I assume it is minipet fur." Heaven forbid she was wrong. She hoped not. Perhaps the tag held the answers. The banshee continued feeling for the invisible coat until she found it, scooping it and the other rejects into her arms.
"Yes! It is perfect! Try it on." Zippers and purple and stripes AND black, in case it came back before the next fashion season.

Terra tried to unzip it. Then she tried to unzip it again, because the first zipper didn't do ANYTHING. "I am not sure how you open it," she said, tugging down another one. "There are too many zippers," she admitted, defeated by the coat. "Why are there zippers where there is no need for them?"
She sighed and put the coat in the pile again. "I will keep looking!" she announced. "Perhaps they have... a poncho?" She knew ponchos. She liked ponchos. They were easy to put on and had no zippers to nowhere.

"Poncho? Oh! I never thought of that! Yes! Let us look for that instead." Siobhan shuffled out of sight to find a place for the rejected coats, and then returned soon after.
"Okay.. ponchos..."
The banshee burrowed into a display of alternative coats and coverings, her bum wiggling in view until she emerged. "I have found several! A very large one with fur.. a purple one with stripes.. a brown one.. another brown one.. a brown one with a Foxfire motif..."
She kept on going.
"A red one with black roses..."

"Roses?" Terra asked, perking up. "Si! I very much like red! Although... if you say it is not the new black--how can a color be another color?" she asked with confusion. "But I would like to see the red one, por favor!"
Somehow she didn't see herself in purple... as much as the other ghoul seemed to think it was the color of the hour. Or day, or whenever.

Siobhan either forgot that Purple was IN, or she didn't care. ROSES!
The banshee brought out the poncho and snugged it secure onto Terra's shoulders. "Ah!! Yes! This looks lovely! Perfect! And do not concern yourself with the price tag! Like I said, I have a plan."
The banshee hiked up her dress, revealing a curled up minipet strapped to her leg. "I have been training for this day.. Mr. Lou.. I hope you are watching over your pupil now.." She murmured seriously. Ever since Lou told her minis could be trained to help 'liberate' seeds, she'd tried and tried.
Only to come to this.
The pet was set free. It's eyes opened, its fangs gleamed. With a wild screech, it began to terrorize the other customers. "Behold! A distraction! Come, Terra! We must flee!" The banshee grabbed Terra's wrist and fled the store in a hurry.

"But--but--" Terra yelped as she was hauled away, shamed yet-- she burst into laughter as they got out of the shop and raced out of the maul. "That was most terrible, senorita Siobhen!" she said, flushing brightly as they finally pulled to a stop. "We should have at least found some shoes before we did that!"
Oh she was horrible. She would write them an apology... perhaps. Or not. Either way, she now had a coat!

"Shoes! Oh, then let us go forth and procure us some shoes!" She grinned, giggling and leading them out into the town.
It was time to wreak some havoc.
