And I'm not known for my common sense. [ is he kidding? the world may never know. ] I'm not interested in going to the mall. And I don't want to *buy* an outfit. I'd like to do a trade.

Are you expecting me to give you one of my clothes in exchange for yours? Otherwise, we can just go to the mall and each get what we like.

No. You buy something for me and I buy something for you. We're about the same size, so I don't think we need to waste time going to the mall unless you *really* wanted to.

Mmm ...

[ it's true they could just do it on the phone, but he doesn't like window shopping on it as much. Totally not because phones are still not great to use for him. ]

I want to see clothes properly, not through a phone.

Alright. Fi~ine. We can go to the mall. You're driving. [ little does he know there will be no driving and all walking. ]

Ah, how unfortunate. I don't have a "car" and I don't know how to ride one.

[ he's not paying attention to Childe's lessons ]

If you want that suit, it seems you'll have to walk.

[ ...dammit. no one has a car!!! and he's so sick of walking. ] I could drive it if we had it. A shame there's nowhere we can just... jack one. [ he'd download and steal a car, absolutely. ]

No. No no no. [ he shakes his head. ] I have another idea. Let's head to the lobby. [ stepping back into the elevator. ]

Oh, we could steal a car if you want to go that way.

Let’s see if there’s anything to steal. [ he heads to the attached garage, but there doesn’t seem to be much, and since neither of them are fins, they couldn’t even take it if they wanted to. ]

[ though he doesn’t look too disappointed there is a distinct amount of disappointment bleeding through the bond. he had been excited to jack a car. ]

I do have another idea.

Go on then. What are you planning?

[ offers him a hand. ] You’re going to have to come a little closer. [ he seems particularly excited about whatever his idea is, and he also seems to think scaramouche is cute, so this is a bonus. ]

[ he's very suspicious but on the other hand, also very bored. So he decides that hey, if he dies or something, at least that ends with something interesting. He grabs his hand, looking like he's issuing A CHALLENGE ]

Let's go then.

[ as soon as scaramouche takes his hand kaiju pulls him flush against him, hand dipping to grope his ass, because he can. he summons a sword, which he yeets off in the direction of the mall - using his warpstrike to send them flying off in that direction. before he reaches it though he throws another, chaining his sword throws to get them there quickly. ]

What do you think, cutie?

[ well

that escalated quickly. He doesn't react while they're being yeeted, though he is holding onto him pretty hard.

Once they are done, though, he brings both arms around his neck, pressing himself right against him and leaning in to talk into his ear ]

I think that if you grope my ass without permission again, I might just have to cut off your arm.

[ kaiju just smirks, throwing one last sword that he grabs, yeeting scaramouche out of his arms. he won't get hurt, but he'll certainly be tossed like a rag doll. ]

I'd love to see you try. [ gives the sword a lick before dispelling it. ]

[ he could kill him here and now no one will find out he'll just hide the body ]

Hahah ... do you really think that I'll be inclined to buy an outfit for you after that?

It's not me, you know, it's the ability. Do you really think I would throw you after asking to do an outfit swap? I'm trying to butter you up, not beat you stupid.
