"Yeah. Took me a while to figure out how to put it on and I felt I almost got my neck tangled around one of these belts here." Yup. Ladon was thinking that Billy was only thinking about much time it would take Ladon to undress himself, and not with eager assistance.
At the last outfit, he moved back into the stall, peeling the pants he wore and also throwing off the shirt as it was almost impossible to get off with all the chains and ties, before he put it back on their hangers. That was just not a outfit he could get behind.
The other outfit was more up his alleyway, and he slipped the pants on, surprised how snug they were but not hard to put on. They were sleek but had a worn softness to them. The shirt was something he did want to tuck in, but once he did he realized how odd it looked and pulled the shirt out again to hand loose. Unlike the other shirts, it fit snug about the center and he touched back to feel the clasp that held some of the fabric to his form. It wasn't bad. It wasn't complicated to put on with chains and ties, was mute in colors yet had a nice design, and wasn't TOO tight or looked as if it belonged in the girl's section.
Stepping out, he adjusted his shirt and looked up. "It's not too bad......" He needed approval. "....is it?"

Billy was impressed, "Very nice~" He was a bit less handsy than he was the first time around, but still careful inspection was needed.
"It really suits your form. You have sexy legs, and a nice a**. The pants compliment them nicely. The shirt also is a fine alternative to t-shirts that don't exactly help show off one's form," he chuckled a bit as he gave his assessment.
Which he then added, "Of course, you can pull off such a thing. You have a form. I on the other hand..."
Well, guys didn't exactly have curves, or weren't supposed to, according to society, however that didn't excuse his being a tree trunk.
"Oh, here," Billy turned back to the cart, remembering something, "amuse me for just one moment more..."
Billy then brought forth the leather dog collar. It was plain - no spikes or studs. He latched it loosely around Ladon's neck and flicked the blank tag that dangled from it.
He stepped back and grinned. "Hn, so who says you can't put a collar on the big bad wolf..." and that grin turned in to a self-satisfied smirk. Gah, all Billy needed now was a leash and some place more private...

It was.....very nice to get compliments from you boyfriend. No one had ever told him he had sexy legs or a nice a**, and he wasn't sure what to make of it. Did he thank him? Did he brush it off humbly? He certainly didn't think he had a fine legs, and his legs were normal to him. True, he had been running for a long time, had been on track when he was in school, and patrolling non-stop did help him get a bit more muscles and keep his figure - but sexy? Ladon never felt sexy, but now he was starting to want to look it for Billy. Maybe this trip gave him a few clues on how to do just that.
However, he wasn't about to get complimented when Billy was only putting himself down. "Oh no. You look very se...sexy." It was just a hard description to say! Namely because it had the word 'sex' in it, and that just brought on some memories that made him feel very warm. "You're...very strong and..handsome." Should he mention parts of him he liked? It seemed so...rude to break down Billy into parts. "I like your legs." Lame! OH GODS HE WAS SO LAME!!! He just wanted to turn around and call himself stupid a few times. Why couldn't he be as smooth as Billy was?!!
And then Billy wanted to try something, and while Ladon was expecting a jacket or some other form of clothing, a accessory he never expected was placed about his neck.
Ladon just stared at Billy, wondering what the hell he was putting on him, before he looked down and touched the collar.
A collar.
WHAT WAS BILLY PUTTING ON HIM?!!!
"It's..." And Billy decided to come in with his own joke, which only made him turn red and look up at him. "Oh don't you start with the wolf jokes. The se..." He cut himself off, looking around for any interlopers. "...the other side gives me those enough." He touched the tag and then the leather. "Do you........like this sorta thing?" Did Billy find this sexy?

Billy chuckled, "Well, such a thing is perhaps best left in the bedroom..." surely Ladon would catch his meaning, "but I do rather like the idea of something to show everyone that you're ~mine.~"
That last word was an almost dangerous rumble, full of possessiveness and a protectiveness... Territorial, might have been the right word.
"Something that says, "property of Billy, if lost return to, yada, yada~" His tone again lightened as he half-joked. After all, sure, he'd given Ladon a ring but...well...sometimes Billy didn't feel like such a trivial thing was enough. And Billy knew Ladon would never go out with any little love bite visible... It was perhaps why when they were together in public that Billy was so physical and open with the PDA...
So who was the real wolf here?

It wasn't just a ring to him, and Ladon reached under the dress shirt to fish out the necklace and the ring that dangled from it. "You already have something that says I belong to you." He was wondering if Billy simply needed more. Holding the ring in his hand, he turned it to see the joined wolves. "At least I know. Does it bother you that I keep it out of sight?" He stepped closer, frowning with concern. "I just.....like to keep it close by. I feel like I'll loose it or it will fall off if I keep it out in the open." And sometimes he worried someone would somehow make the connection between the wolf and who the other side of him was. Then again, considering there was wolf jewelry, for a guy to have it wasn't that strange. To Ladon, it was romantic in it's loyalty and because it touched on Billy loving both sides of him. Ladon and Wolframite. To everyone else, it probably just seemed like a very macho ring.
He let it hang over his shirt. "...but if it bothers you, I can wear it openly....or on my hand." He looked at his hand. "Just....I can't feel much in my fingers sometimes so I can't know that it's there." He turned his hands over, letting the tips of a few of his fingers brush and felt only a tingle there, or in some fingers, nothing at all. Hot and cold, but not feeling. The nerves were destroyed when the fingers had been broken from the BMC.
Closer now, he wrapped his arms around him. "But I'm yours. I'd return whenever I was gone. If you want me to wear something that says it, then I can." Then he thought about it. "...but not the collar.....I mean.....here." If Billy wanted it in the bedroom so much, well, that was a side of him he'd have to find out. They were....growing and learning in that area after all, and if this was part of that picture, the least he could do was find out what made Billy happy. Yes, he did get what Billy meant about the collar.
Thinking about it, Ladon felt sad he never got anything fancy for Billy. He deserved his own jewelry as well. Maybe something that matched.

"No, that's alright I just..." He sighed and ran a hand through Ladon's hair, "don't want anyone to look at you the way I look at you. To think of you the way I think of you. I just want you all to my self, and for everyone to know that you are the one thing they can never, and will never have. I don't think some dinky piece of jewelry is gonna exactly clue anyone in on that."
Of course that meant that there wasn't anything to be done that could really soothe Billy's disgruntled territorial-ism. Hell, in today's world people still went after people that they knew were married for crying out loud. Paranoia was something you just had to live with.
For a moment Billy spared a look at their cart of clothes.
"On second thought, you need to wear the most awful, unflattering, clothes possible so that no one will look at you," he joked, although he tried to make it sound somewhat serious. It was exactly in that fake seriousness that one could tell he was joking, however.

He certainly didn't think it was some rinky, dink jewelry and he frowned when it was mentioned. "It's still important to me." It reminded him that there was someone who was thinking about him, and had thought about him to give him that necklace, and to feel it against his chest was as much of a reminder as if Billy was there holding him no matter where he went. Even when he was Patrolling, he could feel the necklace under his uniform, concealed. That that person too was risking his life for their same, shared beliefs, and would be home when he returned. That his home was full again, and he didn't regret each day to return back to nothing. The warning was still there. Not to be tricked. Not be attached or too desperate, but it was hard to keep that distance. For now, he just had to be more aware of Billy's actions, and take the sweet words with a grain of salt.
Still, they were very sweet.
"I wouldn't let anyone take me, and if I did, I know either you or I would..." They were in public, he reminded himself. "...get rid of them." In which he meant in a very permanent way. Sure, there were new rules, but he felt that the two of them were veteran enough to have some wiggle room here and there. Some minor "accidents" of passion.
At the cart, he only smiled at the seriousness that Billy said it. "Then that means you can't look good either, and you'll just have to wear ugly sweat suits all the time." He bite his lip. "It's hard to not make you look..sexy." That word. Still awkward on his tongue.

"Pft, I think my personality is enough of a turn off for most people."
He did have a reputation for being a royal douchebag, after all...
"So, do you want to finish up shopping and get lunch or what?"
At least they had the money right now for a few decent meals. Billy had been getting tired of trying to make a meal out of vending machine chips and crackers.
"After that we can go home and cuddle. Watch a movie on the couch. Somethin' like that."
Innocent activities like cuddling on the couch wasn't something all too foreign for him to suggest. As perverted as Billy could be, he didn't pressure Ladon for anything more than that. He didn't want Ladon to ever think that that was all Billy wanted, because that wasn't the truth. Not anymore. Not this time. And quite frankly there were some times when Billy much preferred just sitting and cuddling in one another's arms.

"Okay. Let me change. I'd love to go out and eat." Some place they could eat together and was new. Not something they picked off a take-out menu.
Taking the shorts, some normal shorts and t-shirts, a thin hoodie, and also the pair of shorts and dress shirt, Ladon followed Billy to the register.Just when they were about to pay, the woman looked up and pointed to him. "And that?" She asked, and Ladon stared before touching his neck and touching the collar. "Oh! I forgot I -" He flushed, reaching back to try and unbuckle it. This was easier said than done. "I was just messing around." Really, he didn't pick it! He continued to struggle with the collar before gesturing. "Go ahead." She rang it up, and Ladon only flushed more when she leaned in to scan the tag. He could feel her judgement upon him.
As they moved out the store, Ladon looked over at Billy. "Can you take this off?" OnO

"Okay then," Billy ruffled Ladon's hair and kissed him on the forehead before he could go change.
Billy got a couple pairs of khaki pants, and conceded to one pair of shorts and a couple t-shirts. He fount a hoodie that actually was styled somewhat like a peacoat. It had a somewhat edgy look to it as well. He figured it would defend against the high school football player look the one Ladon had him try on had, in his opinion, given him. And it had the somewhat dressy style Billy liked. As far as the t-shirts went, Billy figured he could throw some of his more casual dress shirts over them, unbuttoned.
He made all these selections while Ladon was changing, and then making his own other selections.
At the check out, Billy couldn't help but chuckle a bit as Ladon got all flustered about the collar. He reached and unlatched the it, "Whoops?"

Ladon rubbed his neck before nudging his boyfriend. "Yeah. Whoops. That lady was giving me a weird look now because of you." He then took the collar and put it in Billy's bag. "That's your purchase by the way." Even though Ladon was the one that bought it.

"As if some random lady that you'll probably never see again really matters?" Billy chuckled. "I can about guarantee she has seen stranger."
This was coming from the guy who used to put on a complete act for the entire world.... Billy was a lot better now about that - he'd found some humility, anyway. He didn't go around portraying himself as the king of everything anymore, at least.
"If anything, she was probably wondering if you were just going to try walking out of here without buying it, not anything kinky."
That said, Billy put an arm around Ladon, looking his thumb through one of Ladon's belt loops.
"She'll forget about it by the end of the day."
