"Guh," Lenora groans, standing up. "Kids are so... Weird..." She sighs, and then chases after him.
"Echooo, wait up, I'm serious! I don't mind if you want to like, dress me up like a doll or something! I'll even let you... Throw away the sweaters you don't like..." She pauses. "I'll buy you something, too? Like uh, candy or something like that??"

Echo stopped and rubbed at his eyes, then looked to Lenora. "F-FINE. I don't want candy though candy is fattening." He folded his arms across his chest and sighed. "I suppose we can still do this." He grumbled a bit and pulled out his cellphone from his pocket, then hit a number and held it to his... fin...ear. thing.
"I'm ready to be picked up. I have a guest. We're going shopping. Yes, now. I don't care if mother will be upset, she's working all day today anyways. Just come get me." He grumbled some more and put his phone away, then looked to Lenora again. "We have to go to the front gate. The driver is too incompetent to come up to the dorms." He sighed and shook his head.

Wowza! Lenora wasn't expecting to go shopping at that very moment. She frowns. "Well, that was quick! Do you do that kind of stuff all the time? Just call up someone and go 'Hey I'm going out shopping bring a car!'??" She pauses. "All kids like candy though, right? What would you even want, then? I mean... I've got some money of my own, and stuff.."

Echo blinked a few times. Did that means she didn't have someone to just come get her..? Oh. She was one of those poor people his mother had talked about. No wonder her fashion sense was terrible! A look of pity crossed his face for a moment before it disappeared. "Yes, Mother's staff has to take care of me while she's at work." He nodded and then started to head for the exit. "You can buy lunch or something, this is going to take awhile... you're gonna need a whole new wardrobe, I bet." He nodded a little more, making plans.

"Your mothers... Staff?" Lenora blinked a few times, a frown on her face. Huh, this little kid was... Different. "Dang! You've got to be pretty rich, or something, right? I don't know why I didn't get that before." She smacks her forehead lightly, rolling her eyes.
"And sure, I've got enough for lunch, we can get something cheap or someth- Wait, an entire new wardrobe? Isn't that a bit... Much?" She frowns, looking a bit... Awkward. Thats... So much money.

"Yeah, her staff." He nodded, still leading her down to the gate. "I suppose we are, at least Mother lets me get whatever I want, so, yeah." He shrugged as if it were nothing. Once at the gate he stared up at Lenora. "As long as cheap doesn't mean something ridiculously unhealthy like fast food. Ugh. That stuff is so disgusting." He shuddered visibly. "And I don't think so! If all of your clothes look like that a couple of outfits just won't do."

"But, thats so much money..." Lenora frowned. "How would I even pay you back?"
She huffs once, crossing her arms. "Fast food tends to be fairly cheap, so, yes, thats exactly what I meant by cheap. It's quick to make and easy to get. Less time spent on food and more on clothes, I guess?" She shrugs. Wonder if that'll convince the kiddo to go easy on her. She's not made of money, jeez.

"Well obviously you're not going to pay me back." Echo nearly scoffed. "And we can't eat fast food, it does bad things to my digestive system." Echo shook his head, frowning. "I suppose I can pay for lunch, too." He shrugged, "think of alllllll of this as a gift in the Christmas spirit."

"I- This is quite a big gift." Lenora frowned, twiddling her thumbs as she talked. "I'd feel bad if I didn't get you anything in return... Is there... Anything I could get you while we were there, at all?"

Eventually a rather fancy car pulled up to the gate. Echo squeezed through, just in time for the driver to get out and open the door for him to crawl in. He waited for Lenora to get in before responding. "I doubt you could afford anything in my taste bracket but..." He grinned widely enough for his spiny teeth to show. "It'd be great if I could burn all of the horrible clothes we're replacing~"
The driver started going.

Lenora shivered slightly as she saw his teeth, and quickly glanced out of the window. "I-I don't want to burn all of my wardrobe, can I at least, uh, k-keep a f-few of my sweaters...? I- I like them..." She trails off, glancing worriedly at Echo.

He quirked a brow, noticing the obvious attempt at not looking at him. He huffed a little and folded his arms across his chest. "I SUPPOSE, but don't wear them in public, seriously, its embarrassing."
Up ahead there appeared to be a large shopping mall.

She huffs slightly, looking annoyed. "Why not? They're my favorite clothes." She looks back out the window again, surveying the large shopping mall. She crosses her arms and then looks back over at Echo, trying to keep up that frown. "I honestly don't see why it matters, I'm not hurting anyone with the way I dress." There she goes again, getting all grumpy.

Echo rolls his eyes as they enter the parking garage and the driver pulls into an empty space. "You may not think that but really, anyone that knows a thing or two about fashion just dies a little every time they see that horrible stuff. Sleep wear! It's acceptable sleep wear. If you're alone." He shrugged and undid his seatbelt, but waited for the driver to open the door for him before sliding out.
"I suppose first we'll to to my favorite store. It's the best. I'm sure you'll love it. I think you'd look best in green." He nodded a little, mostly thinking aloud.

She slips out before the driver can open her door, looking a tad embarassed as she walks up to Echo. "My favorite color is green!" She replies, nodding a bit. "I especially like yellow-greens, and sometimes just regular greens... But mostly yellow-greens! And uh..." She pauses, an awkward smile on her face. "Which s-store is your favorite store?" Dear lord, she hopes it isn't super expensive.
