Oh, I don’t? [It was still something she felt she should be sorry for, but if Rita said she didn’t, then she won’t be. Instead, she will try not to leave again, though it sounds like something like disappearing from the City was against anyone’s wills.
With a smile and a giggle, she squeezes Rita’s hand once.] Where to?
You seriously don't, okay? [Rita would only blame the City.
It's been a while since they were able to go somewhere like this, and she can't help but smile in return as she moves forward to lead them to a nearby store.] I think the one we want should be right over here...
[That place with the various mannequins in lingerie in the windows--some of it frilly or lacy, which Rita's not gonna touch.]
[And as soon as she sees the store with the mannequins wearing lovely little pieces of lingerie, she immediately starts pulling Rita in that direction. They’re going in and they’re going to find the young mage lovely underwear! And of course her attention goes to the lacy underwear as that’s Estelle’s preference. To her, it’s a sin to wear underwear less lovely than her clothing.]
/is going to have to add more Ristelle icons later, too
[She makes a little hum of surprise, but follows easily. Though as much as she'd like to ignore the lacy ones, Estelle's doing just the opposite...] Y-you're not...actually into those ones, are you?
[Picking up a pair of lacy white panties with a floral pattern on it, she examines it then looks at Rita with a somewhat curious expression on her face.] This kind of underwear is my preference if that is what you’re asking. [Sorry Rita, royals wear fancy underwear. But this isn’t about her, so she sets them down and looks around the store.] What kind of underwear do you prefer, Rita?
[...Maybe she should've expected that, but...there's no hiding the distaste on her face. She practically feels itchy just looking at them.] Not that kind.
[Glancing around, she finds something more to her liking: plain cotton. Especially the black.] I'm just gonna get some of those ones... [And totally not glance at some that have cute designs like cats. Not at all. (Okay, a little.)]
[Black was never Estelle’s preference in underwear, but she understands how it would be Rita’s. Though she does catch her glancing really quickly at the ones with the kitty prints on them and walks over there to pick up a pair of those!] Rita! These ones are really cute, too! [Look at all the cute kitty silhouette designs it has as she holds them up in front of the other girl!]
Huh? Uh...y-yeah...They're not bad. [It's like Estelle knew exactly where she was definitely not looking. And that she knew Rita would find it definitely not cute-! (It's so cute. Meow.) Blushing, she takes the pair from Estelle, glances it over, and bunches it up in her hands to hang onto.] I guess I'll get this one...
[Hearing Rita saying that she would get the pair that Estelle picked out and thought were cute only made a sense of accomplishment well up inside of her.] I’m glad! I’m sure they will be so cute on you! [Okay, so Rita won’t be showing them off to anyone, but still! Wearing cute underwear makes a girl feel cute. And Estelle has now run off to the lacy underwear section once more, picking up some rose colored ones as well as some of her classic white ones. Looking around, she also saw some bras and couldn’t help but go and pick up a bra that had the same kitty cat design that were on the underwear Rita chose to get.] Look at this bra! It matches that pair of underwear you picked out! [She's having way too much fun with this.]
[She immediately sputters and starts to protest that how they look on her doesn't matter, but her friend's already moving on. Well, Rita's still getting them, and a matching bra-
Wait.] Estelle, I...I don't wear those, you know. [She has nothing to hold up...Not that she wants anything to get in the way and make her back sore. Not at all.]
[Estelle looks back at the bra she found and back at Rita. It would fit her given it almost looks like a child’s training bra, but no less, it’s still cute!] I still think you should get it. When you wear cute underwear like this underneath your clothing, you end up feeling great all day!
[And then, suddenly an idea comes to her mind. Going back to the underwear section, she grabs a pair of kitty cat underwear herself and a matching bra her size and with a giant smile returns to Rita.] We could match! [She gets the feeling Rita wouldn’t want to wear the lacy underwear the Estelle prefers, but she would have no problem wearing cute kitty cat cotton underwear just for her friend…for the simple reason of matching.]
[Rita has the most skeptic look on her face as she stares between Estelle and the bra. Underwear making her feel good?] How? I don't think-
[Oh, but there she goes again, and...Matching, huh...
Not that she cares about matching underwear with Estelle or anything--that's just stupid, but--face heated, she takes the bra from Estelle, too. It'd be cute...] Uh, I guess I'll...I mean, if you really want to...
It'd be cute on you. [There, she said it. Lace and frills are what she'd easily picture for Estelle, but the cat print is just...kind of simply cute, too.]
[She nods enthusiastically all while giggling at Rita’s response.] Yes, I would really like to do it! [Of course only if Rita wants to do it too, but, but she really does! It would be so cute and just something between the two of them. No one else needs to know! And hearing it would be cute on her only seals the do.] Shall we get these then? [As Estelle holds out her lacy undergarments she chose and the cat print bra and underwear out to Rita.]
[And for all of Rita's blushing and general tsun, she wants it too. Estelle's enthusiasm just pushes her into agreeing without complaint.]
Uh, yeah...And- [She takes the garments from Estelle and picks herself up some plain ones, and...possibly swipes another pawprint-patterned one, even if Tyr did return her other pair. Then she's glancing back to her friend, wondering-] Is this all you want? There's more stuff that's more...you know, for you. [Things like negligees, corsets, camisoles...Or what Rita only knows as underwear she'd never wear.]
[Well, Estelle has a fondness for chemises and negligees for nightwear, and was rather used to corsets thanks to her upbringing and fitting a certain look yet for now she could forgo those. Underwear was essential, those other things were not.] As long as I have nightwear back at our house, I believe all I need is some underwear.
[Though she will totally be back here buying those things once she gets a job. Their money should be saved for other necessities (even if Rita does say that spending money only brings it and its friends back).] So this should be it for me.
Okay. If there's none in our room, there should be some in the house. [Estelle must've had things like that in her previous stays, and there were other girls staying in the house, so Rita doesn't mind if this is all they get--even if she has no problem spending money.
...And, turning around, there might just be a rack of chemises that match that kitty-print underwear they just bought. Rita stares at them for a moment, glances at Estelle, and then abruptly snatches two--red and black for herself, pink and white for her friend.] L-let's just get these, so--we'll match, right?
[Watching Rita go towards the chemises with the cat print design that matched the undergarments they picked out, she couldn’t help but smile and giggle a little. Oh, they will be so cute wearing those together! But also, they’re little secret! Ah, this will be like those slumber parties she read in books!] Yes, those are so cute!
[And Rita buying those made Estelle extremely excited. The fact that it was Rita’s idea just made her smile - it made her realize that Rita probably wanted this as much as she did! Oh, now she can’t wait until it’s bed time if only so they can wear their new matching sets together!]
[As much as Rita's justifying it to herself that it's to make Estelle happy--and that is true--there is a part of her that did want it. Estelle's agreement just gives her warm and fuzzy feelings makes it all worth it, knowing that she likes what Rita chose.]
Yeah, they are. [Okay, maybe she's not too much in denial. She can admit that much.] This one's your size, right?
[Estelle inspected the garment to see that it was the right size, then gave Rita a nod.] Yes, that size is correct.
[And now she’s thinking of all the things they could do together while wearing their matching intimate wear. Pillow fights? Girl talk? Have a large all girl sleep over? Oh, all these things she read in books are suddenly coming to her mind and she wants to do them, but it would be best to get settled in the City before she thinks of doing anything like that.
However, for now she is completely satisfied just having this matching set with her friend. In fact, that thought makes her giggle some more.]
[None of these things are given even the slightest thought by Rita, who's also never done them but never read about them either. It's just something cute for them to sleep in, right? And maybe read together or wear on a hot day...
For now, she smiles back. It's kind of strange to her that something so simple makes Estelle so happy, but just being with her friend again is nice. They should...spend some more time together. In case one of them disappears.] Okay. I'll go pay, and then we should go somewhere else. You want to see more of the city, don't you?
[Estelle will never say no to hanging out with Rita. In fact, she will hang out with her as much as she can. And well, shopping for underwear is a good way to bond since, in a way, you learn a lot of things about people, what their preferences are that Rita has a weakness for any and all things with kitties on them - though Estelle may have already known that.
And they can wear their sets while reading, researching, on a hot day, or even on a day where they feel lazy and don’t feel like leaving their room. The simple things in life make Estelle happy - just having friends she knows care for her makes her happy. Just being with Rita like this, makes her happy.]
Yes, I would like to see more of it, if you don’t mind! [Better that Rita shows her around so Estelle is under some supervision rather than having our curious Princess running off herself.]
[Definitely a weakness for cats. And hanging out in matching cat underwear anytime. Though Rita's weakness for Estelle might be even bigger, and she just might want to be selfish and keep her friend to herself for the day. (And there is the risk of letting Estelle go off on her own, which Rita would claim as as her excuse, but...)
For now, she finishes paying and grins back at Estelle, pleased even if she doesn't really know where to take her.] Is there anything you want to see first? There's a bunch of shops for all kinds of things, a library... [She crosses her arms and tries to think about what else is in the City--there's plenty of places, but Rita never goes to any of them.]
[If Estelle knew that Rita had that weakness for her, that would make her most happy, however, Estelle is just happy if Rita is happy and healthy. Then again, she considered her her first female friend around her age, so the mage is someone she truly cherished and will continue to cherish.
And the fact that Rita agreed to matching clothing let Estelle know that perhaps she cares for her a lot more than she lets on a lot of the time. However, she won’t ever bring that up. That is a little fact that she will happily keep to herself.
Well, Estelle wanted to go on a tour of the city, but now that Rita brought up the library again…]
I would like to see the library if you don’t mind. [Which pretty much means the tour’s over; Estelle is going to be at the library for a while.]
[And Estelle being happy makes Rita happy in turn...So it's actually a pretty good cycle. The princess is just as cherished by Rita, too, and so she's finding that going out and shopping together and doing things she never would've thought as "fun" isn't so bad--it's nice.
Of course it's the library. Rita's fine with that, knowing Estelle will definitely like it (and really, so does she), and she readily agrees.] Yeah, that sounds good.
[One little warning, though-] Oh...The library's pretty weird, so it can be impossible to find books if you're actually looking for them. I wouldn't say it's sentient or anything, but... [Or, she'd rather think that it isn't.]
[Estelle never got the sentiment of going out shopping for fun either, but now she can see why it is. It’s a special kind of bonding, and gives people unique subjects to talk about.
And yay library! No one can ever go wrong with the library when Estelle’s involved, unless they’re trying to get her away from the library - that’s a different story entirely. Though Rita‘s warning does catch Estelle‘s attention.] So if I’m looking for a certain book, there are chances I won’t find it? [True that there are times when Estelle would prefer to read a specific genre, such as histories and geographies, but other times she picks up a book at random simply because she wanted something different.]
