Private Finished Shopping for Clothes ...and Sign Language

Ain was very appreciative of her explaination that allowed him to easily understand, on a basic level anyway, if it started to get complicated he knew he might lose track. Thanks to Ria he knew that one of the bills he had on hand was good for three pairs of these pants, and that was good enough for now — picking up three pairs he carried them in hand as he was ready to move on to the shirts.

He nodded to Ria kindly as he looked down at her, he would wait until he was done until he would thank her, but he would always keep at least one eye on her as he moved to the shirt section. In this section there were more options, a selection of plaid shirts with an interesting design was on display and of course the plain black shirts that he was more used to wearing, there were other shirts there too including one pink shirt that stood out but he was not good at picking out style.

Again he didn't know the price points, or what he really should pick to wear for the foreseeable future. He would rely on Ria, and turned to her and stared at her patiently for her to help him pick out shirts and tell him the prices...

He had not really thought much about it, but having only one set of clothes was pretty annoying and the amount of times he had to stop to wash it was numerous. So many days where he was just sitting around completely naked waited for his clothes to dry, unable to go anywhere as even he wasn't going to go running around the forest naked, but it did bring to mind one time he was attacked during a wash and had to fight it off while only carrying his bow and nothing else. 'Good thing no one could take any pictures of that,' he thought as he returned to reality.

After hearing what Ria had to say he shrugged at the high price point, he never really understood style, though people had claimed his style was one that included his cloak and helmet - he kind of wanted to step away from that when he was with Ria at least. She didn't seem to care much about what she wore, and he to be perfectly honest did not care too much either as long as it was practical and durable... a habit from living in a world at contant war was preparing gear meant for fighting. He sighed as he picked up two of the black shirts, they were of much better quality then what he was currently wearing but still much of the same, he added them to the pile in his left arm but hesitated a bit and grabbed the plaid shirt as well, 'I need to start thinking about appearances, just a little anyway...' he thought as he wondered what Ria would think about him wearing different clothes.

'I kind of want to see Ria in other clothes too,' he thought as his eyes scanned Ria's curves slowly, viewing what she was wearing.

Ain glanced at Ria as they circled around to the underwear section, he just sort of stared at the underwear on display, if he was to be perfectly honest he always thought it was more of a human thing to wear underwear and many of the elves in his world did not wear any including himself. He once tried a pair in the other world and it restricted him, without he felt more free, but now he thought it might be as good idea to grab a few pairs. The reason for which was more due to worry about what she was think about him always going commando...

He entered the underwear section and this time he didn't know what to look for, he turned to Ria for guidance, not even remotely realizing that this was not a good idea to do with a woman. To him it was just shopping for clothes after all.

Ain suddenly realized that maybe her helping with underwear might not be a good idea, of course, he was a man and she was a woman, they wore different types of underwear. He suddenly felt a bit self conscious about the whole thing, and wanted to get it over in a hurry, and grabbed the first pair of underwear in reach which turned out to be a red thong. Flustered by the strange underwear, he nearly dropped it, 'Men actually wear underwear like this!?' he thought as he looked around and saw more normal pairs of underwear that were not soo... erotic.

He with a confused look on his face showed Ria the thong...

When Ria started laughing he just couldn't help but laugh a bit too, though he didn't immediately understand why she was laughing it was infectious. After hearing her explaination, he almost considered purchasing them as a joke, and started to put them on the pile before tossing them back on the rack. 'That one probably wouldn't be a good idea...' he thought as he picked out some normal underwear, three pairs in all and placed them on the pile without checking the price for them.

Ain brought his pile up, and was ready to go unless Ria wanted to grab something as well. His eyes scanned the store for things that he thought Ria would like, he had never bought anything for a girl before but now he was considering it. Looking over the store items with his excellent eyesight he checked for something that would look good on Ria, and hoped he wasn't overreaching with this gesture — but he really wanted to get her something as a thank you.

One item in particular caught his eye - it was different from what he had seen on Ria but he would really like to see her dressed differently, and as soon as Ria looked away he was going to grab it for her and buy it in secret.

He started walking out of the underwear section and gave Ria a glance to see what she was going to do, there was other things sold at the store after all.

Ain was a bit flustered when Ria picked up a bra from a rack, a pink and white one to boot, before he could do anything she disappeared into a change room. Taking the chance he zipped away to another section, picked up an article of clothing that he had seen from across the store. He was surprised when a brown haired female store clerk took notice of his purchase, and walked up to him.

"Is that for your girlfriend?" she stated with interest, as she pointed to another article of clothing with a bit of a smirk. Completely unaffected by his fear aura, perhaps due to being used to difficult customers, she placed another item on his pile without really waiting for a reply. "Don't worry, I'm sure she will like it, but most of all you will like it when she wears it for you."

Taking a look a the item, he wasn't so sure that he should purchse it, but he didn't have time to think as he didn't know how much time he hadf until Ria was done in the changing room.

With that Ain ran to the cashier, and dropped a few bills on the counter to purchase the items. He made sure to look confident as he didn't know if he was paying enough, and before long they placed the clothes he had picked out in two bags and he returned to where he was standing just in time to see her return with the bra in hand.

He shook his head, it was true that he might be interested in the rations though but he could deal with that later. Gesturing with his head to the entrance of the store, he was ready to head out, he would however remember this store for his shopping needs.
