---

Hannah Sharpe has posed:
The shopping district! Hannah quite loves the area despite the amount of noise everywhere, a combination of generally low prices and the amount of interesting people she bumps into making it a joy for a curious woman like her! But being blind and going shopping presents some interesting challenges, and so Hannah's called upon her girlfriend to help. She's dressed in a cute blue blouse and skirt, a wide-brimmed straw hat on her head. Sometimes, she has some strange fashion sense.

Their current target? Clothes! Hannah needs some more casual wear, and has some extra yen handy.

"So do you know any good stores, Rurako-chan?"

Rurako Doji has posed:
Most of the time people see Rurako in her school Uniform, or her kendo outfit, though, her 'casual' fashion sense is on full display, and of cours,e she told Hannah all about what she wore, and is getting stares from the more propper older women about, but.. she doesn;t care about them, they are just jealous because she can still pull it off.

What is she wearing? Well, her hair is left loose, falling to her mid back and brushed to a silky shine with small curls on the ends of her hair. She wears her usual classes, along with deep red lipstick and her usual sakura blossom perfume. Her torso is coverd with a black hello Kitty T-shirt, and a almost seethrough thight longsleeve shirt under that. A gothic style mini skirt with black nylons over her legs, and a pair of heels. A black skull kitty belt finishes the combo.

"I do, what are you interested in wearing?" She asks, speaking english, somthing she has gotten accustomed to when around Hannah, holding her hand and resting her head on the girl's arm, being shorter then her Girlfriend, she finds that she very much enjoys that Hannah is taller.

Hannah Sharpe has posed:
Being decently tall has its advantages, one of which being able to be a moving head-rest for one's significant other! Hannah has to reign in her enjoyment a bit to maintain any sense of dignity, but the smile hasn't left her face since the two met up today! Such cute clothing certainly has helped!

At least until she considers, rubbing her chin thoughtfully. She leaves navigation to Rurako.

"Well! I need something casual for summer. I usually go for dresses and skirts, though...I would not mind something like /this/." She flicks Rurako's skirt a bit, grinning! Ahem!

"But other than that, I want something light, and bright colored. Contrasts my hair, you know?"

There's a nice clothing shop nearby! A little more expensive than most, but still affordable if the two don't go crazy. Good quality and selection as well!

Rurako Doji has posed:
Rurako Doji smiles and nods, leading Hannah to the clothing shoppe. "Also, I should buy a swimsuit... I grew abit over the last year and need a new one." She says, with a smile. "Maybe I'll be abit bold and buy a two peice!" She says as she walks into the store with her Ha-chan. "Well, black would contrast your complextion abit t much, but a dark red, it would match your eyes, and they are a lovely red, if I do say so myself." She says as she walks over to the tops first, and holds out a sleevless suede red top, with a mandarin collar. "How about this Ha-chan?" She asks as she moves the gitl's hand to run over the fabric.

Hannah Sharpe has posed:
Hannah grins for a moment at that, before coughing. A blush on the poor girl's face is quickly replaced by a smirk.

"And you better wear it when we go to the beach! Think of it! A day getting a tan, and a night watching the stars! Romaaaaantic!" Giggles the kickboxer. The night air off of the water feels good after all!

There's a faux-gasp! "How scandalous! You will be the talk of Seishou! Go pink, it will make all the gossips go absolutely crazy~." Comes Hannah, mischief in her voice.

Dark red! Hannah ooh's, imagining the look. Then there's a firm nod as she takes the top, feeling it.

"Perfect! Do they have one of these in blue as well? I have a skirt that would go well with it." Or at least she imagines it does! Color is a bit sketchy for her.

"What about you, Rurako? Anything besides the swimsuit?" Hannah's already feeling around after taking the top, soon holding up a grey collared shirt!

"This one feels good!" She holds it up to Rurako to check the size!

Rurako Doji has posed:
Rurako Doji blinks. "Grey is good... as an off colour, I wouldent wear it as a dominate color though." She says as she walks over and tilts her head. "And if you wear it, I'll have to call you Ha-Kun." She says with a giggle, because hannah wouldent see the playful smirk. "Yes, they have a top in a dark blue, and..." She stops as she spots somthing and takes hannah's hand, walking over to a display and looking at two dresses, one in black and silver, the other in red and gold, chinese style sleevless dresses, with a slit in the side of the skirt. "Oh my goodness... Hannah..." Amd she describes the dresses. "We have to get them, we would look... lovely in them." She says with a smile.

Hannah Sharpe has posed:
Hannah stiffens, and looks away! She actually /pouts/ for a moment!

"I am not a /boy/ you know!'" She can be pretty tomboyish though! Huff!

"So let us skip the grey! Hmm?" She's led over to the dresses, and after a moment of feeling, gasps as she gets an idea of just what they are!

"Is...is that a chinese dress!?" Gulp. She blushes all the more, just imagining herself and Rurako in them!

There's an arm around Rurako's shoulders.

"...I have two paychecks saved up, and there is a lovely jewelry store right next door! What do you say, Rura-chan? Let us get absolutely dolled up! Time to break some hearts!" She's already reaching for both dresses, then pauses.

"Ah...mind leading me to the changing rooms?"

Rurako Doji has posed:
Rurako Doji blinks and nods. "They are." She says and takes both dresses, handing the red one to Hannah as she leads them to the dressing rooms. "I have some money saved up as well, i was going to spend it on the Kendo club, but we have a few generous Allumni who have donated money to the Club." She says, she would have a job, but with clubs, and school work, and then her free time, she just doesnt have time for them, aside from her parents giving her money to watch the house while they are away. "I'll go change." She says as she walks into one of the dressing rooms, comming out in the dress as she twirls, her nylons and heels still on as she takes out a hair pin and does her hair up into a bun before walking over to her Girlfriend, describing what she looks like, and when no one notices, letting hannah feel how the dress fits, a blush included.

Hannah Sharpe has posed:
The dress is taken, Hannah feeling the material a few times, not able to stop a laugh! What luck! She /knew/ taking Rurako along was an excellent idea!

Hannah waits on Rurako to change, sticking her tongue out at her girlfriend.

"Lucky! Half of the school thinks the Kickboxing Club is full of gangsters!"

A frown. "...They are /former/ gangsters, blast it!" Huff!

And then she feels that dress on Rurako, her breath catches, and heart skips a beat.

When she finally finds her voice, she's audibly smitten.

"Rurako-chan. You are quite possibly the most beautiful person I have ever seen. We are leaving this place with these dresses come hell or high water!" She pumps her fist in the air! Then it's Hannah's turn!

When she steps out, she too gives a twirl, to perhaps more effect for Rurako! The dress fits her perfectly, accentuating her fit form in a pleasing manner, and matching her skin and eyes well.

"So what do you think? Maaaybe some silver or gold bangles too?" She could probably use some proper heels too!

Rurako Doji has posed:
Rurako Doji blinks as she sees her girlfriend, and bites her lips. "Wow, red IS very much your color." She says as she walks over and wraps her arms around hannah's waist. "Yes, lets, and I think gold for you, silver for me." She says with a smile. She sighs and looks up at her Girlfriend. "Okay, we will get the tops, and thease dresses, and then go to the jewelry store!" She says as she squeezes her girlfriend to her and then goes to change out of the dress, comming back in her gothic clothing she smiles. "If there is a cross school function, we would be the best looking people there."

Hannah Sharpe has posed:
Hannah leans against Rurako as she gets a hug about the waist, sighing happily. She's visibly less stressed than previously, the woman utterly seeming ecstatic. Indeed, Rurako has been a blessing for the guilt-ridden magical girl.

"Keep that up and I am going to become permanently red! Now come on! Gold it is! Oh, just think, the next festival and we can wear these~! Better than any kimono!" Hannah's not exactly a japanese traditionalist.

Then it's Hannah's turn to lead out Rurako towards the sound of the counter. She manages to not trip over anything in her excitement!

"How is your club doing, by the way? Did you manage to get any more members after the tryouts?"

Rurako Doji has posed:
Rurako Doji smiles as she pays for her dress, and the two peice swimsuit, though she didnt tell hannah about it, because she will surpise her. Upan being asked about the kendo club. 'No, we are still two members shy of a touriment team, the rest arent good enough." She says with a frown. "And I have a feeling that we might need a few backups as well, since some of my current members like to take things abit to far." She says as she holds her bag, and waits for Hannah before leading her to the Jewelry store.

"Oh, a sail on arm wear!" She says, and picks out a silver coil bracelet, and a pair of silver hoop earrings, she also makes a few suggestions for hannah. "Thease might work well for you." She says, of cours,e she DOES get one more peice, but thats for later...

Hannah Sharpe has posed:
Hannah rubs the back of her head. "That is a shame! You should hold another tryout. I mean, it was a pretty good turn out last time. Eventually you will get enough members! Do not give up, Rurako-chan, I believe in you!" Encouraging words go!

Then they're at the Osa-p! On Rurako's recommendation, Hannah takes up a few gold bangles, as well as a choker and cute little heart-shaped earrings! It's barely within her budget, but there's no regrets here!

"Perfect~."

She's soon sporting said jewelry, smirking.

"Feels good too!" Thankfully she won't get gruff with her parents about the ear piercings.

"What did you get, Rura-chan?"

One of the workers that's been helping the pair giggles.

The woman shakes her head mirthfully. "Oh, to be young and in love~."

Rurako Doji has posed:
Rurako Doji giggles and takes Hannah by the hand. "Domo-arigato." She says to the worker before leading hannnah out. "Come, I want to show you somthing." She says as she walks along the street, until it turns into a small park, and she walks with hannah to a wooden bridge, the sounds are pleasent, night birds with their song, the sound of running water, and the smell of flowers mixed with Rurako's Perfume.

Hannah, I... I know we havent known eachother very long, but... I um... I.." She stammers and then takes both of her hands. "I want to confess to you... I... I just can't stop thinking about you..." She says as she steps closer, and then a necklace is placed around Hannah's neck. "It's a charm... in kanji it means Amazing... and that's what you are to me... simply amazing Hannah." She says as she looks up at the girl, the one person she feels she can open up to, hoping, praying this doesn't backfire.

Hannah Sharpe has posed:
Hannah pauses as they arrive at the bridge, soaking in the sounds of water, birds, and the scent of Rurako's perfume. A little relaxed sigh escapes her as she leans on the birdge's railing, eyes closed and simply enjoying a quiet moment with someone she cares for. The wind gently stirs her dress, sun warm on her skin.

Then Rurako of all people is stammering, and her hands are taken. She squeezes Rurako's own gently, reassuringly.

Then she lets out a gasp as she feels something along her neck. She freezes, visibly surprised. Her mouth opens, closes, and she too is stammering.

"Ru...Rurako-chan! I..." Eyes closing again, her face screws shut, and there's a long moment of silence as she takes the time to master her emotions. Her heart pounds in her chest.

Then simply pulls Rurako close, hugging her tight.

"I love you, Rurako." Comes Hannah in English, plain and straightforward as she is wont to be. She holds the other girl, smiling happily as tears escape her.

"You keep me calm...no matter what is happening." A pang of guilt hits her heart. What would she think if she know just what she was up to?

"And you are so mature and smart and....oh, I am babbling!" She finally laughs nervously.

"Let us be strong, together, Rurako."

Rurako Doji has posed:
Rurako Doji gasps at the admition from her girlfriend, and feels abit dizzy, though she holds on to Hannnah tightly and sighs. "Yes, strong." A fitting word for both of them.

She leans up on the tips of her toes and places a soft gentle kiss on Hannah's lips as she tightens her arms around hannah's waist. She does feel a bit of guilt, wondering if she should tell Hannah about who she is, how she risks her life to save people, and fight off evil people, part of her wants to say it, but the other part knows she can't not yet. She sighs and holds her girlfriend close to her in any case. She just hopes no demons happen upan them, or else she will deffinately have to tell Hannah.

Hannah Sharpe has posed:
Much like Rurako, there's far too much on the line to just tell her yet. Some part of Hannah has the feeling she wouldn't like her activities, at that! Being part of an evil corporation tends to cause relationship problems.

Instead, Hannah sinks into the kiss, returning it lovingly. Letting the better part of her heart reign for now, for one moment free of despair and hatred for the world, she feels herself grow closer to the girl in front of her. Warm, safe, and loved. When the two break, she's openly crying.

Thankfully no youma breaks the moment just yet!

"Thank you, Rurako. I...feel like I can face the world a little bit more, with you by my side."

Rurako Doji has posed:
Rurako Doji smiles and lifts her hand to place it gently on hannah's cheek. "Of course, I'll always be by your side, come rain or shine, I will always stand with you>" She says as she leans into a hug. "Besides, there isn't anything you and I can't acomplish if we work together." She says softly.

Sighing she looks up at her Girlfriend and blushes abit. "You know, my parents are gone... again... if you dont want to be alone, why not come over to my house, we can have a sleep over." She says, though it's a purely innocent request. "i ah... got a new wok and if you want, we can make some spicey curry stir fry?"

Hannah Sharpe has posed:
If anything, Rurako's words only makes her heart ache all the more. Eyes close, and she forces a smile as she leans into that hug. The warmth on her cheek keeps her from snapping right then and there, caught between her ambitions and the love and care of others.

"I will love you no matter what, Rurako." She promises solemnly. Odd words from the girl, perhaps.

Then she's grinning! She slips out from those arms, behind Rurako, and attempts to lift her up for a piggyback ride!

"Let us not hesitate! To hearth, home, and stir-fry! GOOOOO!" Then she's running along, putting her trust in Rurako to get them there. The two look absolutely silly as Hannah laughs almost the entire way, but she hardly seems to care!

Rurako Doji has posed:
Rurako Doji blinks and let's out a soft 'gah' as she is lifted and given a ride, she blinks and smirks as she places a hand on the top of hannah's head. "Just follow your head Ha-chan." She says as she directs the girl to her house, giggling the whole way there.

You are strong hannah-chan." She says as she continues to lead the girl, down a few streets, and into her yard before she hops off hannah's back. "Next weekend, we should get a group of people together and go to the beach! We can share a milkshake." She adds as she leads Hannah into her house and begins to prepair a simple, yet spicey dinner.

Hannah Sharpe has posed:
% Thankfully Hannah turns out to be a decent conveyance, even if it's a little like a horse with blinders on. The pair manage, and eventually, Rurako is set down in front of her home! Hannah isn't even terribly winded!

"I have to be. The world makes sure of that."

Then, inside they go! Hannah is all ready for more spice-based torture!

"Mmm! I love the idea! Oh, milkshakes and a beach and warm sun and friends!" She'll have to pick up a proper bathing suit soon!
