 -Aurora was irritated. Or maybe just hot. Despite the fact that it was autumn, soon enough to be winter in Destiny City, the Alaskan girl found much of her fashion too covering for the remaining days of fall.
She'd let it slide for awhile, convincing herself she was far too busy for a jaunt of clothes shopping. But when she'd been informed she needed an extra set of dancing leotards, Aurora found herself with no excuse NOT to look for said new clothing.
Shifting the small bag with new leggings, leotards, and bodysuit from the Dancing Emporium, Aurora gazed mildly at the picture and word list on the mall mini map, pondering over which place she should start in her search for capris and slightly shorter and thiner skirts.-

 The day was pretty warm for autumn, and Cygny spent most of it outside. The leaves were beginning to fall though, and that wasn't good news for him - his perfect hiding place will soon be out of use, and he'll need to find a new one. That was enough to shift his pretty much normal mood into a foul one. Deciding it was enough of learning for today, he moved his steps into the mall, for his favorite internet cafe. An hour of tho of playing would make him feel better... ...only to find the cafe closed for renovation. He kicked the nearest wall angrily, following it by a quick look around. No familiar faces, thankfully, and he almost lost it here... Not good. But at this moment, he almost didn't care. Waving away his thoughts, he just walked forward, mindlessly looking at the shop windows, only to find a damn sweet fashion shop just before him. And those pants on the mannequin, white with all those little chains, wouldn't he look just amazing in them...? yes, yes he would. He definetely would. In fact, he shall try them on RIGHT NOW. Sparing one more look around, and deciding that nothing bad would happen, he entered the shop and directed himself towards the male shlves. Foul mood DEFINETELY won't come back today. It only they match.

-She'd completely ignored the shops that appeared to be for the younger crowd, knowing quite well the sort of skimpy trash that went for woman's fashion these days, passed the mens stuff, and straight to the list of womens clothing and department stores. Anything with a selection that would allow for normal clothes along with the slinky stuff. Marking a few off mentally, creating a map in her head, Aurora headed off, gazing at windows mildly as she passed.
Shops filled with candles, baseball cards, jewelry. People streaming in and out with the happy exhuberance that the mall gave off, it actually drew the smile back onto Aurora's face.
She paused abruptly when something caught her eye, the sparkle of elegantly beaded embrodiary on otherwise classically simple capri legs. They even had the tinest little v cut on the edges!
It wasn't one her mental list, but she quickly detoured into the little fashion shop, beelining to the rack of 3/4th pant/short hybrids.-

Now here, they were! The boy extended his hand, touching the pants gently. Yes, this would do, the cold touch of the fabric was something he always enjoyed. The small chains jingled quietly, when Cygny took his spois from the rack, and made his way towards the changing room. Catching a few other items that caught his eye on the way. He wasn't sure what he'd do with those, but it was always lonely carrying only one item to try on, wasn't it? Always better to have more!
He passed around some girl in the pants section on his way, without much as noticing. His mind was occupated with different things, and he wasn't going to bother with inor details. Closing the curtain after himself, He grinned towards the mirror, and started trying on his pile.

-Her fingers flicked through hanger by hanger, judging each by it's overall look, focusing on the details only after it'd caught her attention upon first glance. The pretty embroidered one lay across her arm, followed by one that had just the slightest touch of lace, and another plain black but made of some mysterious fabric. That was good for now.
Heading towards the dressing room, she was happy to find one was open, the one beside the other ivory haired 'girl' she'd caught a glance of from behind a few moments before. Stepping inside she pulled the curtain, going about the task of derobing her lower half much more like it was a mission then fun.
Black pair on, she turned around, gazing at it from all sides. She really liked the way the soft fabric hung against her skin, and yet still swished around her shins when she moved. Glancing at the tag carefully, she asked outloud, hoping somebody would answer, whether it be a store attendent or fellow shopper.- "Ummm.. what is the practicality of polyester? Does it tear easily? And can it be machine washed?"

...and they looked simply perfect.
Cygny posed to the mirror, the grin on his lips widening. His legs looked pretty much slimmer in them, the color, or rather its lack, made his skin look less pale than normally (not like his...job...uniform, what do the Negaverse have against white anyway? He looks like he's washed out or something! Maybe trying black would've been a better idea..or blue...blue is nice.), and the soft jingles of the chains soothed his mind when he moved.
Too bad I can't wear this to schhol. He smirked, and shook his head. One day, one day it'll all get better. And in the meantime, -he- will know that he has this pretty little thing.
A sudden question from the booth beside his woke him up from his thoughts. Goddamit, girl, you're alone in there and nobody has even slighest idea what you're wearing! What. The. HELL?! But he didn't even sigh, he was a good guy for way too long to ignore a damsel in distress.
"You might want to show your item of picking to the shop assistant, so they'll know what you're asking about? I'm sure that would help." In the meantime, he took off his shirt, wanting to try one of those that he took from the shelves on his way.

-She paused, waiting for the solitary response that sounded, eyes widening softly as the masculine tones touched her ears. It wasn't a worker, for obviously it was coming from beside her. Beside her where that 'girl' had gone in? Aurora cringed lightly, chiding herself for assuming him to be a her, as if it matter considering it had all been done in silent assumption. That point was, she was startled silent, piping up finally after a moment.- "O.. okay. Thank you"
-She continued on her task of trying on the pieces one by one. The lacey one looked a little too young and childish, a no go. The one she'd originally seen was beautiful, elegant as capris got. A little snug though, so one size up maybe, with a cute belt just to make sure it didn't go anyplace.
As her body went through the functions however her mind was aflurry. Was that really a boy clothings shopping? On his own at that? It seemed an enigma to her. Mothers and girlfriends always bought guys their clothing... didn't they?
Making her way out of the dressing room she peeked to see if he was still there, noticing the curtain still drawn in the 'occupied' position. He must be.. and the curiousity was just killing her. Nonchalantly she set the lacey pair down, looking for the next size up on the other, eyes glancing towards the changing room every few moments.-

Well, at least she wasn't from the talkative type, that's good. He sure as hell wouldn't want to talk to anyone met in a changing room! Arranging the clothes on the stacks - a smaller one that he was buying, including his now favorite pants, a normal white shirt with a black tie, and a silvery-black blouse, and a bigger pile of things that he would want to buy too, but currently couldn't afford. Ohwell, he has all the time in the world. Clothes won't run away.
With a smile, he folded the clothes from the second pile neatly, and walked out, ready to place them away, only to almost stumble upon some girl standing there.
"I'm sorry." He moved away quickly, ready to catch her if she happened to lose her balance. "Didn't notice you there. Are you allright?"

-Definately a boy. She deduced as he came into view, stepping back with a wobbling step as she tried to help avoid the collision. And polite too.
Pray tell, what strange world of backward and make believe had she stumbled in to?-
"I'm fine! Thank you" -She assured with a brief nod, before offering an apologetic smile herself. It really was pretty dumb of her to be snooping in the first place.. and rude too. If she'd been bowled over it would have totally been her fault. Hopefully he wouldn't notice though...- "I shouldn't have been standing so close to the doorways anyway."
-She hadn't fallen, but her clothing had slipped from her hands and to the floor in the whole mix. Aurora knealed now, trying to fish up the few pieces of fabric.-

Cygny kneeled down next to the girl, and with his one free hand helped her collect the clothes she let go of. There was a smile on his face, and even though he felt slight anger at the situation, his general mood was too good to get it ruined so quickly.
Still smiling, he stood up when they've finished, and handed the girl her clothes. "I believe this is yours?"
He waited for her to take them, then bowed his head slightly. "Then have a nice day." With that, he directed himself towards the racks to put up the clothes he wasn't taking in, and then made his way to the checkout.

"Thanks again" -She stated quietly, accepting the clothing, before staring after him when he abruptly left. Obviously NOT the talkative type... which for once actually bothered her.
What in the world was wrong with her today?
Following after him, just barely hiding her strange shameless streak today, she waited at the checkout behind him, thankful that there was someone in front of him, to spare her a little time.
Digging her wallet out of her purse, trying to look like less of a stalker then she was actually being, she piped up pleasantly, nonchalantly.- "Those are very cute pants."
-Not HER kind of cute, but cute nonetheless.- "They for a special occassion."

...oh great. The talkative type.
Cygny's mood was slowly getting lower, as he realized that a meaningless meeting in a shop suddenly has a chance to morph into something longer. Hopefully she won't follow me out, or something...
And yet he smiled, when he looked at the girl. Control of others was important, but control of himself was everything. " I'd rather call it 'interesting' than 'cute'." The hell, he was not a girl to wear cute clothing! "And no, not really. I just liked them." He should've stopped here, she'd think him antisocial and probably would shut up or something... But no, he can't seem antisocial, no matter how comfortable it would be for any situation. "And yours?"

-Her suspicions confirmed, her mind reeled over the occassion, wondering if she'd simply not noticed boys shopping before, or if he really was something as special as she was making him out to be. At his correction of her term, she nodded mildly, lifting her own clothes up for inspection.-
"Ohhh, I need something cooler then what I have. The temperature is a little different then I imagined. No real occassion though."
-Since her hands were full between her bag in one arm and the wallet and clothes slung over the other, she bowed her head and shoulders forward a little, adding politely.- "I'm Aurora by the way. Nice to meet you."

Names. Effing amazing.
The albino nodded in acknowledgement. "And I'm Cygny. It's a pleasure to meet you, Aurora. Today is pretty warm, that's true, but just so you know, it might get cold here pretty quickly." With another smile to the girl, he asked "You need some help with anything, maybe?"
The person before him finally paid up and went away, so Cygny made a step forward, placing his things on the counter. Finally, this should be over with soon. Damn the closed internet cafes!

"I'm used to the cold" -She stated mildly, smile attached.- "But this warm isn't bad either, there are some very beautiful trees and plants that grow around here thanks to it."
-She quite enjoyed watching the changing colors of the tall and lush trees of Destiny City. At his kind offer, she looked down at her hands lightly, pondering softly to herself. Did she have anything else she wanted to pick up? Or was she ready to go back to the Academy already? It wasn't like she absolutely needed help carrying her things, but she could always ask him for assistance in that.-
"I'm alright I think. It shouldn't be two hard to handle two bags and a purse. Thank you though" -Lightly she watched his selection of clothes pass as the lady rang them.-
