"Alright!" She grinned, glad that he was agreeable to her little suggestion, "For now, how about me paying for you first? You'll have to pay me back though, after you earn your keep!" Everything worked out! Mot would be working for his shiny, new boots, and mother gets some help at the shop!
"I was thinking we go to the beach after a week," She nodded with a sheepish grin, "I have a feeling we'll need to relax before school starts again~"

"That sounds fine to me." Mot agreed, grinning ear to ear now. He didn't mind her paying if it meant he was going to pay her back.
"The beach?" Mot parroted, stroking his chin. "That sounds like fun. I've never been to the beach with friends before." He had heard classmates talk of things like that, but he himself never was able to partake in the act.

"Want to wear them out?" She giggled, staring at his feet before looking up at him with a grin, "We could toss your old boots into the box and carry that instead of your new ones if you want to wear it now!" It's not like the new boots didn't match his outfit anyway!
"The beach," She repeated with a nod, "Neither have I, really... I thought it would be a nice change of scenery! Remember the chalet I told you about? We could even have one giant sleepover there!" Hopefully, it would be big enough to hold all of the guests she were intending to invite.

Inner Mot wanted to squee and flail his arms in delight as Lizzy suggested he simply wear the new boots around town. Outer Mot settled for a wide grin. "I like that plan." He was never taking them off.
Mot rested a hand on his hip as he listened to Lizzy go on about this idea of hers. "Sounds like an all night party. I like it." Any chance to socialize was good with him. "Can we invite everyone?" And by everyone, he meant those not already at Lizzy's house. Perhaps this beach trip could be the finishing touch at the end of their vacation?

"I figured," She returned the grin before moving to the cashier, paying for the boots before grabbing the receipt and giving it to Mot with a sheepish smile; 195 seeds for the pair of boots... Apparently due to the craftsmanship and the fact that it was made of leather.
"Hope you're ready to work at least 6 hours a day for 5 days straight," She commented before nodding, "I want to invite as many as possible! Then again, maybe we should make a list of close friends to invite... To prevent over crowding!"

Mot whistled at the receipt. That was a lot of seeds. But, he was more than willing to work for them. It would be a new experience!
A new experience while wearing awesome boots.
Mot nodded, taking the new bag (with his old boots), and leading Lizzy out of the store. "Maybe that would be best. We have a lot of friends, anyway." With the friends they had at the house, and adding those at Amnity...
"Then again, I guess some of them are still at their own homes?" Just because Mot didn't go home, didn't mean the others stayed behind.

"We do!" She giggled, "Let's see... I'm definitely inviting Mac and Amrita... And Riley and Jericho..." She paused at the question, a thoughtful expression on her face as she tapped a finger gently against her chin.
"Well... I know Jericho's in school. He already went home and came back~ As for Riley, I'm pretty sure she's staying in school, although I might have to drop her a text to see if she's available," She nodded, "Amrita's going home, but I'm not sure if she'll be staying for long. As for Mac... Well, I'm pretty sure he can make his way down here from home if he wants to."
It was going to be fun!
"Oh! Mitsu and Shun too~ Maybe Junko..." She added with a nod, "Hm... Who else am I forgetting..." She was pretty sure she missed out a few!

"Xiu!" Mot added with a raised finger. He liked Xiu. She was cute. And friendly. The tea incident was all but forgiven at that point.
"I can't think of anyone else..." Who else did he know? There was Roch. He didn't know him all that well though. Not well enough yet to invite him in on a party.
Mot looked around and hummed. "So, where to now?" This market research stuff was tough! Hopefully somewhere he didn't feel the need to buy things. Never had he wanted things so much like he did in the last little while.

"OH! Xiu, of course!" She nodded; she liked the Baku, and they did know each other from Open House! Besides, she had been nothing but nice from her own experiences with the ghoul, "Neither can I, off the top of my head... We might need to sit down and write out a list." She grinned; even more things to look forward to!
"Hmmm, the next shop?" She suggested, heading to the next store and looking in through the window; nothing really caught her attention, although Mot's reflection in the mirror did.
"You survived without your hat!" She had almost forgotten about that! Giggling, she turned around to face the boil with a grin.

Mot's face flushed uncomfortably, the boil ruffled his hair and turned his head at the mention of his missing hat. "For now." He'd been distracted with vests and boots. Wicked tricks, those. "It's really bright without it though." He complained, squinting up at the sky a moment.
Sigh. Where was his hat?
He lowered his head again. He'd almost forgotten it was gone until she said that.

"Awwww," She almost regretted reminding him of his lack of hat, seeing the way he reacted to her comment. A frown tugged at the edge of her lips; it was difficult to hide her disappointment... She had thought that he would be happier at the fact that he didn't need to hide under the brim of his hat!
Pausing, she waked over to him, standing on tiptoes to pat him on his forehead again. Her hand hovered in front of his face, however, as she paused momentarily, her head tilted to a side. She then blinked, "... Noooo! The new boots made you out of reach, sort of!" She pouted, sounding genuinely distraught... Until you notice the amused grin on her lips which indicated that she was most likely just joking.
"It's okay, I'll protect you from the brightness!" Says the ghoul with the equally pale complexion.

Mot was just short of puffing his cheeks like a child with Lizzy fawning her concern for him.
He stared down at the ghoul as she stopped short of patting his head like she so loved to do, raising a brow for a moment. He smirked at her complaint, shaking his head. "Oh no~. How awful." How dare he gain half an inch of height from the boots!
"Oh? How?" Did she have magical powers that stopped the light from being so bright? Though in all honesty it wasn't terribly bright, it was survivable. "Well, whatever. Let's get your market research done and over with now, shall we? After that, I think I have just enough seeds to buy you lunch."

If he puffed out his cheeks like a child, she might ask if he could be her younger brother instead.
"Right?! I'll just have to get even higher heels then!" She decided with a grin, settling for a quick hug instead before giggling, "Staying indoors of course!" She paused when he offered to buy lunch, her eyes widening before she blinked, squeaking out a "Really?" before grinning.
"Nobody had ever offered to buy me lunch before," She looked amused, "It's always the other way round~ I do like the sound of you paying though!"

Mot patted the ghoul on the head to emphasize her height or lack there of. "You'll need stilts to meet me eye to eye, little lady." Yes, he was totally teasing her.
"Alright then." Mot was a bit surprised to hear no one had offered to pay for lunch before. How rude! A gentlemen always buys lunch. "Let's do lunch." He offered for her to take his arm.

Lizzy pouted at the head pat before giggling, "That's it! I'm not short - you're just too tall!" That made perfect sense to her! Mot was taller than some of the boils she had seen, after all, "And you're wearing boots to make yourself even taller! That's cheating!"
Giggling again, she curtsied before taking his arm, "Sounds good to me! Lead the way, big brother~" She was pretty sure if they kept walking down the street, they would eventually see some sort of rest stop or cafe.
