Shop 'Till You Drop! [SO VERY OPEN]

[starlightace]

It was nice to be out on solid ground, to breathe fresh and salt-tinged air, and to feel the real warmth of the sun on her neck and shoulders, Nanoha thought. She felt a very deep urge welling up within her breast to just take flight, to soar through an actual sky in the first time in months - and she had no doubt that she would.

But there were other things she had to take care of first. Like, for instance, swimsuit shopping with her best friend.

"Ooh, this store looks like it might have some cute ones!" Nanoha tugged on Fate's hand, pulling her towards one of the storefronts that lined this street of the bustling shopping district. Even if it didn't, there were still plenty of others to try, and plenty of cute outfits to convince Fate to try on.

"Huh?" Rei looked up, not sure at first if he was being talked to. The woman who'd spoken to him looked familiar - he knew he'd seen her around the ship at some point, but he'd never taken the time to talk to her.

"What's wrong with it?" He said, though his tone was hardly defensive. He was merely curious. "I mean, I tried it on already, and it fights well... and it could pretty much be matched with anything..."

"That thing can't be matched with anything," Tenaya said. "Unless you've got a thing for banana yellow."

It didn't even dawn on her that he might not see the color the same way she did. She was just assuming he was a guy with no sense of fashion.

Rei furrowed his brow for a moment, thinking. He'd had situations like this before.

"Say, um..." he said slowly, gesturing to the shirt, "what color would you say this is?"

And here Tenaya caught on. After all, she had her own share of eye problems and might well have more to come. More tactfully, she said, "Yellow. Like a banana."

"Bananas are gray to me," he replied with a sigh. "So it's not really a reference I can understand. But hey, now I know this isn't gray."

He glanced around the shop quickly, the back to Tenaya. "Hey," he said hesitantly, "could you... do me a favor?"

"You need help picking out the right colors?" Tenaya guessed. "No problem."
