Eliana picked up the pace when she realized he was going to follow her. Her grin was sharkish, toothy as ever. She led him into a clothing store. It had all the finest threads, granted, it was a kids store, but what were you going to do? "We could get you a suit tailored, but that would take a ton of time. Seriously, takes forever."
Eliana fanned her arms out and turned in a slow circle. "So, what's your style, dude? Which way should we go with this?"
They went into a kids store. Of course. It made sense, as he still had to dress in kid sized clothes. Another thing that pissed him off. "I don't think I need a suit." He wasn't the most formal of dressers, settling for a half causal, half classic type style.It was hard to explain. "Then I would look even more like a doll for you." He smirked, looking around the store at different options.
"Kind of like my outfit today I guess." He pointed to his shirt, a long sleeved black shirt, fashioned with a grey sweater. He was wearing dark blue jeans, as well as black running shoes. He looked like a teenage boy. He didn't like the idea of dressing like a little boy, nor an adult.

"Fair enough," Eliana said as she looked around. She hailed one of the store workers and motioned to Chrome after they approached. "We wanna find the boy the finest," she paused and looked at him, motioning to him as a whole, "those that you have."
The man looked at Monochrome and smiled a hint. "Of course. Right, this way." He took them to the back of the store where the pre-teen aisle was.
Before Eliana let the man leave she looked at Monochrome to see if he was pleased with the selection they'd been taken to. She'd make the employee bring them to ever section if that's what the vampire boy wanted. No joke. She'd flippin' do it.
As the weird man looked him over, he glared a bit, feeling their eyes all over him, exposing him. He followed the man, who of course took them to the pre-teen area. Monochrome was no amused. He looked up at Eliana, a smirk plastered on his face. Redirecting his attention to the man, he crossed his arms. "I'm no pre-teen dude. This shit looks like something a baby would wear." He wasn't trying to mean, oh no, he wanted to be mean. He was going to get exactly what he wanted from this store.
"I don't think that my friends and customers would want to see me in this." He grabbed a shirt that had little swingles all over it. "I need something different, not childish like this."

"You heard 'im," Eliana snapped to the employee who paled.
"O-Of course not," the employee, Mike, said to Monochrome. He then walked them to the teenager section, sixteen to seventeen years old. He moved deeper in until they were at polos and dark clothing options. He was sweating a little. He did not need to get fired from this job, man.
Again, Eliana looked at Monochrome to see if he was pleased with this selection. She'd seriously do this for as long as the vampire wanted. It was hilarious.
"Now you take me for some emo?" He snarled at him, literally, wanting to just become a dog so he could rip his head off. "Or some golfer with these cheap shirts?" He grabbed a polo shirt off of the rack and grunted at it. "So stupid." He placed it back on its hanger.
"Next." He waved his hand at the man, wanting him to take them to the next section. He wanted to see him sweat even more. He gave Eliana a look of amusement as he waited for their next stop. This was fun.

The man gulped. His step was stiff as he took them to yet another section. This was the oldest section the store had to offer. The styles here were bland but pricey, all the latest big name brands. He turned to them, smiled tightly, and said, "This is the best we offer, sir," he looked to Eliana, "Ma'am."
Eliana pretended to eye the clothing and acted like she was thinking hard on the quality. Snootily, she turned to Monochrome. "What say you?"
"I don't think I asked for expensive, plain clothing." He says as he picks up one of the tags. Too expensive. He looked at Eliana, shrugging his shoulders back at his displeasement. "Why don't you you pick out an outfit and I'll try it on." He said to the man. "If I hate it, I'll write a complaint about your bad manners to your customers." He waited for a second, glancing at Eliana to see her reaction. Had be stepped too far? No, even if he had, he wouldn't stop for this poor, measly person.
He ruffled his hair, undid his sweater, making it look messy, as well as slanting his jeans. "This is what you are seeing me as I am guessing.Some big bully out to ruin your job." He nodded, redoing himself up how he liked it. "I'm not though, so do your best and impress me."

"I -- N-No! Of course not, sir. Right away," the employee said. He was just a bundle of nerves now. He didn't want to lose his job, and these two were just unpleasable! He glanced at Eliana, wondering if maybe she would reign what he assumed was her son, in.
Eliana gave Mike a steely look. "Well, you heard him. Get to it then. What are you standing here lookin' at me for?"
Mike sputtered a second more, then scampered off in search of something. That really wasn't in his job description, but he'd do it if it meant not getting written up by his superiors.
Eliana looked back at Monochrome and grinned. "Really gettin' into it, aren't you?" she asked once Mike was out of earshot.
"Good." He said with a confident nod as the man went away. He turned his entire body to Eliana, liking the comment she had made. "Oh you know it. I like to see him go all over the place trying to please me really." He chuckled, covering his mouth to his hand. "It's amazing actually." He thought for a moment, before he looked at the section that was around the. "I don't even know if I like this store, clothes wise." Yes, they had well made clothes, but he wasn't sure that the style, or price, was for him. Thankfully, the island did have more than one store that had clothes for him.
