Welcome to Gaia! ::

How much was it was a very good answer indeed. Yin had the seeds that were in the waistband, possibly scattered on the dressing room floor now. The material that he was wearing seemed expensive, but this was just a rental place if he remembered. Maybe just renting it would not be too expensive. Then Tarios said the price.

Yin was never getting anything on this suit. Ever.

In fact, it was entirely possible that he would attempt as much as possible to avoid being very close to his date for the event, as Alexander was by nature messy, and that simply would not work.

But more importantly...he maybe had one percent of the seeds needed. Maybe. "Um...I do not think I can manage that," he said quietly. As he had no idea what a credit card even was, he had no idea that Claudia might be thinking about actually paying for it.

Hunching his shoulders in the suit made it tighten across his back oddly, and he was staring at the ground again. "Sorry Mistress, I did not mean to offend you." He was a bit louder, no longer quite a mumble but still not what one would call loud. But he was trying, he did not want to get Miss Daniella in trouble for having an unsatisfactory friend, or for trying to speak up for him. "I do not believe I can afford it Mistress."

Really though, with his cheeks as scarlet as they were they might have to try to find something different to match his skin tone.

Yin turned and all but bolted back to the changing room, planning on getting into this old clothing as soon as possible. However, an elemental had followed him, apparently sensing that leaving him alone with fine fabrics and buttons would be a bad idea, and quickly took over taking the suit off of him and hanging it up properly while he put his old clothing back on, all the while him trying to apologize to the thing for wasting its time.

It was a mixed relief, he was glad to be in his own clothing, but more sure than ever that her mother judged him, and hard, for what he wore. Once that was accomplished he all but slinked back to Miss Daniella's side, just wanting this trip to be over with.

What Yin had just experienced was the magical and mysterious world of ghouls...in a suit shop. To him he might as well have been visiting Earth for how confused he felt. And were they actually leaving with the suit? "Thank you," he said with a bow, then quickly realized that he was going to get left behind and scurried to catch up. Just in time to hear her talk about Rikki. He probably was easier on the eyes to be honest, Yin had no misconceptions about being handsome. But he had not that he was that awful either...until now.

"I can carry that Miss Daniella," he offered, not wanting the ghoul to be doing any work when he could take care of it. But what he most longed for was for the woman to remember something important that she needed to do and leave them be. Or even something unimportant, at this time he really would not mind.

Well yes, Miss Daniella was strong. He had seen her in action, and had not really tested himself against her but respected her strength just the same. If this was for a show of strength...well in that case, of course she could carry them. If she did not mind, and she seemed to be alright with it.

Yin was highly interested in what a mani pedi was. When Miss Daniella denied it...well he simply filed it away to ask Alexander about. Maybe the zomboil would want to get one? Whatever it was?

But then he was completely derailed. Some might describe the boil as having a dreamy look pass over his face, but really, it was just the same old Yin. "Princess Eva requires a great deal of affection or she will not be pleased," he confirmed, smiling a bit at the mere thought of her.

At least one person agreed with her, Princess Eva was that important. If only everyone realized that, and not just Miss Daniella.

Yin found himself being latched onto and barely had time to say a quick "thank you," to someone who was possibly related to Satan, but he was sure that Miss Daniella would have bragged by now if that was true.

Once they were away from her mother he dared to speak up. "Um...is that what a normal mother is like?" He could not help but ask, she was only the second mother he had really met after all.

Danny, mani pedis ARE abuse.

The demoness had asked a very, very good question. Was there another way? Who knew. "Alexander's seemed different," he said, though if Miss Daniella loved her own mother she may just feel sorry for the zomboil.

"And did you need anything while we are here?" He did wish to get back to Princess Eva, but if the fire demoness needed something he would try to restrain himself a while longer.

Try.
