Post #2713240 in Arc 4, a roleplay on RPG

Hotaru smiled a bit at the strange young man who just entered the room. He seemed strange with long hair and a mask over his face but he seemed pretty harmless. Still, Kirika did ask him to buy the bowls so she figured he was an old member of the dorm. She approached him with a happy smile.

"Hi. My name's Hotaru Emirsdottir. I don't really know who you are but if you've been here for a while, welcome back! Do you need any extra pair of hands to help you out on this adventure?"

She turned to Kirika with a happy smile.

"Thank you for letting me help you out, Kirika-chan. It was really good getting to work with you."

She bowed a bit in front of Kirika before turning back to the strange young man for his answer.

Menou giggled a bit, significantly more relaxed after going through the movie in one piece.

"I can definitely see where you're coming from but it didn't make the final duel any less awesome. I absolutely loved the finishing move Isamu did! Wonder how long it took to perfect it?"

Her aura was definitely a lot more relaxed as she heard Asagi offer a banana split to her. She thought a bit about it. She was definitely having a lot of fun with Asagi, even calming down to the point where being in the public didn't scare her as much. Plus, anyone who turned down sugar was either diabetic or Satan.

"Y-Yeah, let's do it."

Despite the small stammer, Menou agreed happily.

Akeno just quietly listened to the man talk on and on. The quality of his voice was smooth. It wasn't too deep but it wasn't exactly high pitched either. Plus, it helped that he put a lot of emotion into his stories. It made her get sucked into them a little bit and wonder what adventures he would have tomorrow or the next day. Still, she felt a tiny bit envious of him. He seemed to be carefree and lucky. Akeno didn't have the luxury of being either of those things. Still, she offered him her weak but genuine smile as she listened to him talk. When his story ended, she flipped out her phone to "talk".

"You're really lucky, huh. People do tend to get mad easily so I'm just glad you managed to get out of that situation alright. I don't think I've ever had that type of problem though. Mainly because I keep my train pass in with my student ID in a wallet."

She showed off her green wallet with a four leaf clover on it. It was one of the few decisions she made for herself and she was proud of it. Still, her thoughts were interrupted when the main pointed out how she would look good in that dress. She cringed a bit internally at the word dress. Her mother had her wear enough frilly and cute looking dresses to last a lifetime and she was sick of them. She couldn't do anything about it though. Just as she was about to say she wasn't interested, she actually got a look at the dress in question.

The "dress" was actually a shirt and skirt combo. The skirt itself was rather short but colored cream with small pockets on either side where the hips were. As for the shirt, it was a beige long sleeved shirt with a small V-neck line where the sleeves went to the wrists of the mannequin. She stared at it. The clothes definitely looked cute but not doll like. Still, her mother wasn't around and the only person who would know was this guy...

"... O-Only on-ne way t-to fi-ind out..."

She stammered out, impressed that she managed to say two words without stumbling over them. Maybe her training was helping her regain her voice. Still, she motioned for him to follow her inside.

"Ah, welcome, ma'am! How can we help you?"

Akeno looked over at the worker and nodded a bit, pointing at the mannequin before typing out her response on the text to speech app.

"Can I please try on that outfit?"

"Of course you may, ma'am! Ah, but they won't really go well with your shoes and socks. May I get you some other shoes and socks to try on?"

Akeno was a bit surprised but nodded.

"Yeah, please. I'm about size 7 for shoe size. Any accessories you find would be great too..."

The woman grinned.

"Certainly. Right this way, ma'am!"

After three minutes, Akeno stepped out of the changing room to face the man. She wore the same shirt and skirt he pointed out to her but accompanying it were a pair of tan tights, light brown boots with dark brown soles and a small four leaf clover pendant adorning her neck. Akeno twirled a bit of her hair.

"There was a hat that she said would work well with it but I didn't really want to push it. Well, did it turn out well?"

She tilted her head at him.
