Open!

Who: Saburouta Bandou and ALL OF YOU!
What: The guy needs some new sunglasses - and probably a new wardrobe. Help?
Where: A random shopping mall on the Near Shore
When: July 14th, afternoon


A) I wear my sunglasses at night...
[ Bandou's main reason for hitting up the mall? He's gone way too long without a pair of sunglasses. Over a month, even! They were smashed to pieces back in the beginning of June when the people of the far shore were enjoying a lovely beach party. At least it was lovely before he got smacked in the face with a volley ball. Where ever that asshole Donut ended up disappearing to, the guy owed Bandou a new pair of shades. And he had every intention of handing the guy a bill if he ran into him again.

But first he's got to find the right pair. So he's stopping at all the kiosks that seem to have some array of sunglasses to browse. The last cart didn't have anything interesting, so he's headed to another when he's suddenly being hounded by a merchant from an entirely different cart. What are they trying to get him to buy anyway? Maybe he's being sold a new phone plan? Maybe he's being unwillingly sprayed with perfume? Or maybe the poor guy's being convinced to get his eyebrows threaded! Whatever it is, help the poor guy out, please! ]


B) A man can't have too many hoodies
[ Whether he got help or not, Bandou's fled into the nearest men's clothing store to get away from those damn persistent merchants. He'll eventually try to sneak back out, but while he's here, he may as well look around. He's been told by a few people that he looks nice without the hat and hoodie on all the time, but hell if he knows what he should be wearing instead. The hoodie is comfortable, and as far as he's concerned, is appropriate for all times of year or special occasions. And yes, he did wear his hoodie under his yukata for Tanabata. Fashion advice would be greatly appreciated. ]

C) Wildcard!
[ You're welcome to latch onto this guy wherever and for whatever reason. Ask him for his opinion on a new outfit. Get some food at the food court. Force him to carry all the bags from your hard day of shopping. Whatever it is, go for it! ]

[Lavi himself is mostly just here to enjoy his day when he notices Bandou being pestered by a merchant who seems determined to sample him some sort of cologne.

It makes him amused, wondering if he should even attempt to go and help the poor guy.

He eventually makes up his mind when he sees the merchant bring out a bottle of perfume, claiming it'll help Bandou smell nicer.]

[...The poor guy.

Lavi's quick to intervene, smiling brightly at the merchant.]


Thank you for finding my friend here. Time to go.

[The merchant stammers at him, surprised, and barely has time to react before Lavi quickly takes Bandou away from the merchant before she recovered her senses.]

[ Oh hey, it's that weird competitive guy from the festival! Yata spots him as he's wandering around on an errand, being pestered by a salesperson at one of the kiosks. One for... is that lotion?

He starts snickering as he pauses a few feet away, skateboard tucked under his arm, and maybe eavesdrops on what's happening.

Too bad he didn't bring any popcorn... ]

[personal profile] thevanguard 2017-05-15 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
[ Oh no, Yata's not getting anywhere near that catastrophe waiting to happen. Instead, he stays where he is and smirks at the other guy. ]

Maybe you should use the lotion? Then you'll be slipperier.

[ With a smile in place, Mikoto comes up to Bandou lifting a chipmunk up at eye-level but why is his hand black?! Oh yeah, that chipmunk, it's an ayakashi and yup that black stuff is exactly what you think - blight. ]

[ Shikyoin Hibiki requires pants.

She has more than one pair, of course: she'd rectified that situation not long after arriving on the Far Shore, and has been appearing in a variety of elegant, flatteringly-cut (male) trousers hereafter. But an unfortunate incident has led to a certain set of slacks being compromised, and she's not convinced her shinki will be able to remove the stain.

Thus, the mighty Apollo. In person. In this store. Having a devil of a time. ]

[ Again. Again, they don't see her. Hibiki coughs into a fist, steps directly into the path of a young man carrying a load of shirts. She smiles, and the air dances with diamonds and sparkles. ] I'm a customer. I require assis---

[ Wham.

Look out, Bandou. When this employee ran into Hibiki, he fell backwards and knocked into a mannequin display.

Which is falling your way.

Duck? ]
priforprince: (fist)

[personal profile] priforprince 2017-05-15 02:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Hibiki herself managed to keep her balance, mostly unscathed, save for some of the clothes the unfortunate employee'd been carrying landing on her instead. She'd just removed them from her person when that shirt, without a care in the world, drifts down right on top of her head.

She tears it off, all attempts at good humor gone. There are some indignities even a Parademy Award-winning movie star can't be expected to act her way out of. ]
What's the meaning of this?!

[ aside from "hibiki should probably stop attempting to stop traffic with her body"

because that's just silly ]

[ It's hard when you're a reaper without an arm. Trying to find clothes that don't really make that missing bit obvious. So he's been looking at jackets mostly, scarves... things he can drape over his shoulder. It helps... kind of.

But then he does catch sight of Bandou. Sorry man but when you're walking around in a hoodie and shades, you look a little sketchy.

Soooooo don't mind a sudden arm on your shoulder. ]


Trying to get the attention of these store attendants can be a bit of a doozy, eh?
diehardreaper: ([♥] | It used to feel like a fairy tale)

[personal profile] diehardreaper 2017-05-18 01:28 pm (UTC)(link)
That's prolly the biggest disadvantage we've got, eh? Can't ever flag anyone down when you've need of them.

[ But that confirms it. At least he isn't suspicious and definitely one of them. So who is he to deny helping someone out, right? ]

Anything in particular you were in the market for, then?

And a side of ham

[There's not THAT many big malls that the shinki frequent, so Kairi keeps a look out for friends whenever she has a need to go down there - whether they mention it on the BBS first or it's a spur of the moment kinda thing.]

Hey there!

[Speaking of...]

You're from the Far Shore right?

[They had only exchanged names, not seen each other on video... plus the sunglasses and hoodie make her think it could be someone else entirely underneath there.]
pure_radiantics: (convo] huh?)

[personal profile] pure_radiantics 2017-05-27 06:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Huh? [ She doesn't intentionally mimic him, she's just... equally as confused. ] Uhm, yeah! No problem...

[ She's willing to go along with it for a short period of time, and thankfully he explains soon afterwards. ]

Really? He wouldn't? Wow... Most people in the Near Shore we can hardly get to notice at all! He must be really desperate...

[ Now she's curious what this guy's issue is. ]

I don't think he needs lipstick on his eyelashes, sir.

[ Mascara is totally lipstick, right? But D2 knows nothing about makeup, so it's totally lipstick for eyelashes. The merchant looks so offended. ]
smilingbullet: (C14 Timberwolf)

[personal profile] smilingbullet 2017-05-24 01:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Anyone can wear makeup. Or maybe the salesman thinks he would look good in it. ]

Yeah, you look great without it already. Sorry, my friend’s not interested but maybe the next person will be? Anyway, we gotta go, we’re in a little bit of a hurry you see, maybe we’ll see each other again some other time. Thank you for your hard work~

[ He grabs Bandou’s hand, and starts to pull him away from the salesman, who still can’t seem to get how anyone can’t know what mascara is called. ]

[Unfortunately if Bandou was looking for someone to help him escape from some merchant's clutches then Rei was the wrong choice. The poor boy had already fallen victim to getting his eyebrows threaded, and his face was looking particularly sparkly due to a new face scrub that was hitting the market, and he was in just as much distressed as Bandou was when his back had gracelessly slammed into Bandou.]

A-Ah! I'm- I'm sorry!!!
