It wasn't that Neil didn't enjoy the outdoors, not at all. What was there not to love? Nice warm sunshine, cool spring breeze, the bird, the bees...well...maybe not the bees. That was what was, literally, bugging him as he strolled through the park, hands shoved deep in his pockets as he tried to walk faster than the honeybees following him could fly. "Buzz off, you stupid things! I'm not a freaking floral arrangement!" Which wasn't entirely the truth, but not incorrect either. The boy was a mix and mash of all sorts of things, though the prominent blossom on his tail and in his hair were what was likely attracting so much attention. Even a stray hummingbird had seen fit to begin following him, darting around his head in an irritating fashion. Growling softly, he hurried on. "Stupid nature..."

It didn't take long for Neil to also attract a wandering girl named Eidel. Carefully she trailed after him her eyes curious as she saw the various fauna trying to invade his personal space as he was trying to enjoy the day outside.
Her lips pursed a bit as she followed a couple of feet after him and finally she spoke up, "If you do not like them then why not do something? Liiike~..."
Eidel peered over him again, "Wear a hat maybe? Oh! Maybe get a giant bubble you can wear!"

The unfamiliar voice was his downfall. Stopping to turn and see who it was, the bees and hummingbird busied themselves trying to pollinate his tail and hair, causing him to blow one out of his face in exasperation. And what was she talking about? Or, rather, suggesting. Arching a brow, he looked her over as he thought, finally settling on a smirk as he shrugged in defeat. "Kinda defeats the point of being outside if you're in a huge bubble, but I guess I'd look good in a hat, huh? I'm Neil, by the way. I didn't catch your name."

"But bubbles are awesome! You can be in a bubble and pretend to be a bubble and..." Eidel was either very innocent or was having way too much fun at his expense.
Probably the former.
Eidel seemed to give Neil a once over before nodding, "Hats are good! Maybe you'd look dashing in a hat."
There was a pause, "I ...I didn't throw a name. That wouldn't be very nice Mister Neil! I am Eidel and I would not throw my name!"

Pretend to be a bubble? Mulling over the idea, he put a hand on his chin as in deep thought, screwing up his face playfully in thought. "Well, if I pretended to be a bubble, wouldn't I pop from all these bees? But it might be fun too, I guess."
Letting off of his act, he grinned at the hinted compliment. "Well I bet you wouldn't look too bad in a hat yourself. Maybe we could go find one and try it on or something, though not sure where you could find a hat at."
"Eidel huh? Well, I can see why you wouldn't throw it. It's a good name, you should keep it."

Eidel considered the idea of popping very seriously, "Mmm. Maybe only if you make them angry cause you bubbled over them."
That was not how bubbles work. Eidel would have been a horrible bubble.
The teenaged manifest let out a bright giggle, "Think so? Dexter-man says that stores sell lots of things! Maybe we can find a store that has hats."
She beamed with pride as he complimented her name, "I will keep it forever! I like your name, too! It is easy to say."

Stores? The boy hadn't really ever been to one, but that sounded interesting. Nodding, he grinned wide. "We should! It'll be fun, and we can try on loads of hats and other stuff. You just have to find them, right? That shouldn't be too hard." Granted, he wasn't entirely sure where the stores would be from just here. Looking around, he arched a brow. "Did he say where to find them?"

Eidel didn't hesitate to grab for Neil's hand so she could drag him in a random direction. "Stores are everywhere you want to be!"
Maybe she meant something entirely different.
"Dexter-man says they are in 'various places' in the Imaginarium," She sing-songed cheerfully at Neil as she tried to get him to follow. Eidel might not know where she was going but at least she was confident about it.
