WHEN : Now
WHERE: Genessia City and Fayren, Catch her anywhere, around the cities!

[ After successfully Not-Tomb Raiding and getting payment for the most recent job (and Lucy hoped that the herb was actually going to work for that poor girl) it was time to do some well earned shopping. Not alone though, Neveren, the youngest member of Fairy Tail (kinda) was accompanying her. Her first stop is picking up some cooler clothing for herself and the kids since Regina was busy on a job herself. Next she stopped at a toy store, where she picked up something for him and herself. Her last stop was at the ice cream shoppe before heading back to Feyren to the guild. ]

[ OOC Open CR, come hang out with Lucy and her not!son! ]

[Clothing Store]

[weavemyownfate]

[Satsuki isn't in the best of moods. She's having a bit of difficulty with the school situation, Ryuko is being a huge pain, and Kazuya doesn't seem to have learned his lesson. It's just once annoyance after another but she had found her experience in a clothing store with Nonon to be surprisingly relaxing.

So she decided to come again on her own time to try and uncover Nonon's fashion secret. Just how does she manage to look so good in pink? Why does she have so much fun sorting through clothing for that matter?

Currently she is standing at a three direction mirror. After about four minutes of intense conteplating (conteplation so intense that the shop assistants decided it might be best to stay away until that aura calms down) she raises a frilled, pink dress up to her chest. At that very moment she then notices Lucy in the reflection and not only do her eyes widen, her cheeks pinken as well.

She immedietly drops the clothing, turns her back toward the mirrors, and pretends to be interested in something else.]

[ A wild Satsuki is spotted! ]

[celestial_wizard]

[ Nope, nope, you're totally busted, Satsuki. Lucy had been waiting for Neveren to come out of the changing room so she could see how a shirt fit on him, and happened to catch sight of the other girl. With a frilly dress no less. ]

Satsuki? Wow, I didn't know you were into something so girly~ [ She padded over, picking up the dress and dusting it off. ]

You should be more careful with it - here.

[ Engages in Battle ]

[weavemyownfate]

A reasonable presumption, but highly incorrect I assure you. This is more my associates style.

[Satsuki does have a bit of a blush, despite her attempts to keep her cool this is an extremely embarrassing position to be caught in. Perhaps she would have thought this out better if her mind wasn't all over the place!

But yes see? She's cool. As a cucumber. As she grips the dress by the hanger, her grip is so tight that it snaps in half and falls to the floor again, then her expression falls grim.

Someone please put her out of her misery.]

...

[ Slams down Red Dragon in Defense Mode ]

[celestial_wizard]

[ ... well. That was certainly...something. Guess she'll have to shoot Satsuki +.+ ..

Oh wait. ]

A-ahah, it... it's okay I'm sure it was just a really flimsy hanger.

[ She awkwardly picked up the dress, studying the girl. No, frills were definitely not her style. She seemed better suited to elegant things. ]

Is anything wrong..? You seem tense. [ Understatement of the year. ]

[ Do you.. Have any 'Tens'. ]

[weavemyownfate]

.. Thank you, Lucy.

[Satsuki actually didn't expect Lucy to pick it up a second time, so she can at least say that much.. But she doesn't seem intent on taking it back.

That said, there's a slow shake of her head.]

Nothing in particular, I have just been rather busy the past number of weeks. It would appear activity is picking up again in Genessia City as well.

[A glance is then given to the boy.]

And this is?

[ .. Go Fish. Do you have any 'Threes'?]

[celestial_wizard]

[ Well she wasn't going to leav a perfectly nice dress on the floor for people to walk all over it. ]

Yeah, it certainly seems like that. A lot of people have been showing up lately.

[ As Satsuki glanced towards the boy, Lucy grinned, nudging him forward. ]

Neveren Thyme. He and his sister Justyne are members of our guild, along with their nanny. Nev, this is Satsuki - say hi.

[ Neveren, never letting go of Lucy's hand, beamed in a friendly manner. ] H'lo miss.

[ Yes ......... UNO!!! ]

[weavemyownfate]

.. Yes. At this rate I may need to organize a larger group of helpers.

[ Satsuki stares at Lucy for a moment. She doesn't recall asking about his punctuality, but sure why not.]

Greetings, Nev. It would serve yourself, as well as others, well to improve upon your lack of punctuality. 'Better late than never' can only take you so far.

I suggest you start today.

[She then looks back to the blonde woman.]

I was not aware that you allowed members so young. I suppose it is open to anyone whom can perform magic, then?

[ Dangit! You sank my battleship! ]

[celestial_wizard]

[ Both Lucy and Nev look confused at Satsuki's comment about punctuality. O..kay then? Lucy patted Nev on the head. ]

Not exactly. Nev and Justyne don't know magic - but you might say we sort of adopted them into the guild, Natsu and I.

[Window shopping]

[greenmagick]

[Terra still doesn't have a job and not a lot of money because of it. She is still getting her bearings, though meeting people in the city has been... interesting.

She see's Lucy across the street. Terra gives the girl an almost smile and a small wave.]

[Window shopping]

[celestial_wizard]

[ Neveren in tow, Lucy was chit chatting with the younger boy as he rather animatedly gabbed on about something or other - probably a certain dragon slayer he idolized. He went quiet when Lucy caught sight of a familiar face, and the blonde grinned, waving back. ]

Hi Terra - out shopping too huh?

[Window shopping]

[greenmagick]

[Terra scratches the side of her cheek lightly.]

Sort of. Mostly just looking.

[She tries her best to give a happy smile but it was small and unsure.]

What are you shopping for?

[Window shopping]

[celestial_wizard]

Well that's just as much fun actually. I'm just looking for lighter clothing for the kids since it's getting pretty warm in Fayren now.

[Window shopping]

[greenmagick]

[Terra looks around curiously.]

I guess so. I don't change my clothes very often. [Except of course when she cleans them.]

Re: [Window shopping]

[celestial_wizard]

Oh? So you've never gone to buy clothes before? It's really fun - even if you odn't buy things - just to try on clothes and see what's out. At least I think so. I don't think Nev quite agrees.

[Window shopping]

[greenmagick]

I haven't but I guess I should give it a try then.

Re: [Window shopping]

[celestial_wizard]

Definitely. There are a lot of things you can go shopping for - it doesn't have to be clothes.

Locked for Natsu

[celestial_wizard]

[ Provided she didn't run into her partner outside, there was just as much chance she'd run into him inside. On returning home, Neveren and Justine were given ice creams and the rest of the treats placed in a cooler from Genessia before Lucy went up to her room, taking out one more thing from her bag. A cute little red dragon plushie. Don't judge. She can't quite keep from giving it a squishy hug and smooching it's little snout before putting it down on her bed. Shh, sneaky, no one saw that right? ]

[explodewiththerage]

[There were many advantages to Natsu's prefered method of entry. One of course was the ability to slip in unnoticed at just the right time. Like right now. THough the moment he sees Lucy in the room he quickly ducks back away from the window and listens for a moment before slowly peeking over the window sill to see what Lucy will do next.]

[celestial_wizard]

[ Tsk! Spying on her! Fortunately she didn't notice, though she does study the little dragon plus a moment, picking it up again. ]

Hmm... you need a name... [ What shall she call him. WHAT shall she call him? She wiggles the dragon between her hands a little, before giggling. ]

I've got it; You can be Natsu too. A cute dragon like this - I bet he'd look just like it if he was a dragon all the way. [ Chuckling, she tossed the dragon up and down a little. ]

Ahha, if Natsu heard me call him cute he'd never let me hear the end of it. So it's our little secret, okay Natsu-dragon? Besides, I like him the way he is. [ Catching the dragon as it tumbled down into her waiting hands, she gave it another hug. ]

So much more than cute. [ Not telling if she meant her partner or the dragon though. Never telling. She set the doll aside. ]

[explodewiththerage]

[He's not spying. he's eavesdropping. There's a difference! Though what he hears does baffle him a bit. She called it Natsu too. She even called it cute. The more he listened the more flabbergasted he got. Did she really mean just that toy or did some of that extend to himself? Either way it sounded like she was done for the moment so he waited a few more moments before climbing up on the window sill.]

[celestial_wizard]

[ Ohhhhhhhhh. Eavesdropping. Then yes, that's a completely different thing! Yeeeeeh. She was in the process of rummaging about for one of her manuscripts when she heard Natsu coming in the window. ]

Oh, Natsu..! [ She hesitated. He didn't hear any of what she was saying right? right? ] Erm - Nev and I stopped by for some ice cream earlier - there was some spicy hot pepper ice cream on sale that I thought you might like to try, so I left it in the cooler downstairs.

[ Hopefully no one else eats it. Hilarious that would be. ]

[explodewiththerage]

[Clearly different! Still it should be obvious from the look he's throwing her way that something might be off. ]

Oh did you? Guess I'll go look into that afterwards.

[For now though he's scanning the room for the plushi to get a better look at it.]

[celestial_wizard]

[ She blinks at that look, puzzled. ]

Y-yeah, um.. [ Natsu acting odd is never a good sign. ]

Is..everything all right?

[ He wasn't mad she took Neveren out with her instead of him, was he? That'd be silly. Meanwhile the Natsu-dragon was perched on the middle of the bed, innocent and cute. It's just a precious little plush that probably had Lucy's scent all over it now given the cuddles and kisses she gave the darling little thing. ]

[explodewiththerage]

[She didn't hide it. Then it's okay if he walks up to her bed and takes a seat before picking up the plushie and holding it by the back of its neck as he examined it. So this was cute huh?]

Hmm? Oh yea everything's fine.

[Well at least it's a red dragon. Though wait why did that Even matter? It was just a toy.]
