[8/10] Problematic. That was one way of saying it. Ygraine laughed weakly, unable to deny the swell of relief she felt that Asa was... okay with her finding him, even if he was embarrassed. She smiled and moved closer to him, draping her arm around his shoulders to tuck him into her side, ducking down to kiss the top of his head. Then, with a tug, she had them moving onward, away from the people listening in on them.
"I... suppose I understand. That's sweet to say, you'll have to tell him that yourself." There was a teasing glimmer in her eyes as she said this, squeezing him. "So ... lets get you changed, then, and we can continue on as our normal selves, hmm? The boys will be distracted for a while, and... I miss you. Time alone with you, I mean."

Asa was still a little incensed, but at that point he was the equivalent of a growling perzi. No real bite, very little in the way of protest, but the pout was still there. He leaned into her side, once again lifting the hem of his gown so that in the move he wouldn't accidentally step on it. The embroidery around the hem was his own design and as horrifying as this whole thing was he didn't want to ruin it.
Even as they moved he was careful of it, though now he released it so that it could flutter behind him. There was a natural sway to his hips that came from a life of nobley clipping down cold, stone halls that translated to a saunter in his finery. "What's the point? We're already out, the worst of it's over and if we went back now too much of the day would be wasted." He had already been outed so... "As long as you don't...let others know I'm a man we can go about like this. That way we can have more time together. "
The charade may not have been to his liking, but hearing that she missed him..."I miss you too." His look softened considering upon hearing it; that she still valued private time with him, even after all this time. "I miss this. Just getting to be together." He gave her a squeeze - as much of one as he could while moving, anyway. "...Uhm, about what you said earlier, though...does this really look okay? I don't look ridiculous?"

[9/10] Ygraine didn't want to say it out loud, but Asa was absolutely adorable when he was angry. And she let herself appreciate it, since he was calming down already. There was a flush to his cheeks that turned them purple, a gleam of energy to his eye, a pout on his lips... he was precious! And the way he just, naturally, seemed to suited to it... she didn't want to hurt his masculinity, since he really could be such a prideful thing, but-
He really did look fetching. Ygraine tilted back her head, laughing happily when he agreed to stay out, looking back at him with a bright smile. "Of course, I wouldn't dare!"
Then... she softened too, squeezing him back. "No - well. If you don't like it, I won't push the issue, but-" She smiled and arched an eyebrow at him, reaching to 'brush' some of his hair out of his face with her fingertips. "No matter what, Asa, you're absolutely my type~ and you really do look ~lovely~."

It felt so odd being complimented on an appearance that wasn't entirely his own, but also strangely validating? Almost as if his hard work had actually paid off. He had managed to obtain the meat he'd come after, even if his disguise worked a little too well, and if Ygraine liked it then maybe it wasn't entirely bad.
"I could give you some tips on how to properly apply eye kohl." It was a little tease, just a tiny one, but enough to break him out of his mental haze. "I learned some techniques from your papa, of all people." He hadn't known that Callum knew so much about cosmetics until he came across the man prepping for a performance and he'd almost learned too much.

[10/10] Ygraine gasped, horrified, and gave Asa a small shove, her lips immediately turning back into a smile to show that she, really, didn't have any problems with her teasing. "Cheeky, you!" She clicked her tongue, then burst into further laughter. "I can see that too - goodness-"
Together, they continued to attend to their errands. It was wonderful to get time with Asa but- really, Ygraine's takeaway was a feeling of pride and affection, just seeing, once again, how far Asa was willing to go for his family.
Really, she had lucked out.
