Thread PL: 445
Suppressed PL: 5 [Equipping Auto-Adjustable Training Weights] The clamor of the crowd as they went about their business. A child screaming at their mother. Generic music playing over the speakers in the large, open space. And businesses, businesses for as far as the eye could see. Yep, this was a mall alright. Tomina stood next to a bench, tapping her foot impatiently. Tomina had traveled all the way to West city to come to this mall. Why would she go out of her way to go to a mall in West city when she typically liked to keep her capsule house in the Satan City area? Because of the guide she was waiting for. She had contacted Hono and asked for help for picking out items she would need for her house. Especially clothing. She was down to her last casual outfit right now. And maybe they’d be able to find other things to spice up her home. Tomina had asked Hono because she was the best person to ask this kind of request. Atsuko had grown up in a monastery and wore armor all the time, so she had zero fashion sense. Ayami would probably cause a scene if she walked by an electronics store. And there was no way in hell she was going to ask Rumia for this kind of help. And she didn’t want this to remotely seem like a date, so Lambertia was out of the question. So Hono seemed like her best bet. The fiery girl seemed trustworthy enough and was a hell of a fighter. Tomina slipped her hands into her pockets, a slight scowl on her face. Honestly, she wished she didn’t have to ask for help. But she didn’t have the foggiest idea of what to get or what was good value. Tomina had been homeless until recently, so it wasn’t like she was taught good spending habits. And she didn’t have access to good clothing. She needed Hono to help her narrow things down. Asking for help was hard for Tomina. But even she knew when she needed assistance. |

Oh, the mall... it was quite the place! The crazy loud crowd, the children, the food court! It all felt so... perfect! Hono loved the hustle-bustle! Walking towards the meeting spot Tomina suggested. Looking around, she soon spotted Tomina on the bench. The human decided to put one of her rivals to the test. Walking behind Tomina, Hono would tap her on her shoulder.
"Yo." The red-head greeted her friend. Waving a little bit at her. "That outfit looks nice." Complimenting the clothes that Tomina wore. Hono wasn't wearing anything new. Wearing her usual outfit, a skirt, and her top.
"What did you wanna meet up for?" She had a small bag. "Here, I brought you some food!" She offered the girl a bag with some sushi inside the box. "It's leftovers, soooo hope you enjoy it!"

Tomina would turn around, giving Hono a smile. "Hey! Thanks for the compliment by the way. It's the only other get-up I own right now." Tomina took the bag from Hono, slipping her arm through the straps.
"Thanks again. I'd never throw away free food someone sends my way. Anyway, I was hoping you could help me clothes and furniture shopping. I won the lottery recently, so I have my own place now. Problem is, it doesn't exactly come with furnishing. And I'm entirely fashion deaf, since I've lived most of my life on the streets. I could use your help picking things out."

Hono cracked a smile. "No problem," she said folding her arms curious as to why she was needed out here. Shaking her head, she chuckled that Tomina only had one outfit.
"It's pretty damn good, my dad had some leftover food so he cooked it up for yah." She explained looking at the bad. "The lottery?! You say that so relaxed!" She was shocked at the luck. "Little old me? Aww, how sweet~ But yeah, let's go get that furniture first!" She smiled lightly. "I feel honored you'd ask~" she winked. "I'm sure you'll look good in anything!"

Tomina shrugged. "I was really lucky, what can I say? Although if I hadn't won it I still would have managed. I would have ended up having to crash with Atsuko or Ayami. Or maybe even you. Winning the lottery is the best thing that could have happened, but not being rich isn't the end of the world. I have options."
Tomina smirked at Hono. "Well, you aren't wrong. But I won't let you use that as a cop-out. You're going to help me pick out new clothes today. And since you know the mall better than I do, you're going to pick the first store we're going to. And if there's anything you want, I'll buy that too. It's time for a girl's day out!"

Really lucky? She was putting that lightly... Hono shook her head letting out a sigh. "Well. Congrats, it's not everyday someone just... wins the lottery!" The human explained, brushing a few strands of hair out of her face. The pink-haired girl let out a little giggle. "If you crash my dad will make you work at the restaurant." She would explain. Shutting her eyes. "No offense butttt I'm not sure how you'd do as a waitress..."
Hono simply nodded. "Sure, I can tell you what looks nice and what doesn't" The fighter shut her eyes giggling a little. She did know this mall well. Pointing to a furniture store. It was big and quite busy. So it might be smart to get it done soon!

Tomina smirked. "Actually, everyday somebody wins it. It isn't always the mega jackpot though. Still, it usually never is you. But this time it was!"
Tomina's good humor evaporated when Hono questioned her ability to work. Tomina frowned at the red-headed girl. "Hey, I could do that kind of work! All I have to do is take people's orders and carry food to tables, right? Maybe do a little cleaning. I can do anything but cook. So why do you think I'd be a bad fit?"
Tomina followed Hono into the furniture store as she conversed with her.

Tomina did have a point. Hono simply shook her head and dropped the topic of the lottery quicker after that. "I guess you're right..."
Hono chuckled. "You gotta smile and greet the customers. You're cute and would get some nice tips, but you're a bit hot-headed." That was bold, Hono was a hot head herself! So saying that was hypocritical! "But I can teach yah if you ever did~," She said confidently in her abilities as a waitress!
She entered the store looking around a bit. "Any idea what you want? Design-wise and such?"

Tomina snorted, looking at the other girl in disbelief. "And you aren't? If you can handle this waitress thing, I can do it too!" She insisted loudly. She looked around as they entered the store, her eyes wondering a little.
"Er... not really. I want a fridge. And a couch. And a bed. And a mattress to go with it. I heard that you had to get a warranty for a mattress. I thought you only had to worry about that sorta thing for a house or a car, not a mattress."

Hono was only teasing. "Oh calm down~ I'm just messing with you~ I'd train you to be the best waitress around!" She chuckled. Hono was a go-getter, so if she was going to train someone, she was gonna go all out with it!
Hono began walking around the furniture store, helping Tomina looked around for what she wanted. "No! Don't let them sell you a warranty, as long as you don't mess up your bed often you won't need it!" she warned Tomina of the dangers of salesmen. "They'll get you all types of shit you don't really need."

"Damn straight! I'd surpass you in that too if you gave me the chance." Tomina jabbed back. She wondered around at the store, frowning as the other girl explained warranties.
"So you don't need them? But what if I accidentally burned part of my house down? Would insurance cover damage to my furniture? Or would I need a warranty on top of insurance? The burning down part might be a possibility."
It was a rather unique hazard of having pyrokinetic abilities. Granted she wasn't going to mention that on her insurance application. Or her warranty, if she got them. Although if she followed Hono's advice, then she didn't have to get those.

Hono rolled her eyes, ignoring Tomina's jab. Hono followed behind the woman, looking at the furniture as well. "Pretty sure your insurance should cover it." She explained, though truthfully, Hono wasn't sure everything about insurance. She thought about it. "Might have to ask the insurance company..." she chuckled.
Hono crossed her arms for just a moment. "What do you think about this one?" Hono pointed towards a sofa, it was rather plain looking, but it looked quite comfortable.

"It should. I dunno that much about insurance. Except that you get money back in case shit happens. Which I'll definitely need, considering..." Tomina trailed off, letting out a forlorn sigh. She was essentially a walking fire hazard. She hated having to live taking all these measures to ensure safety.
Tomina tried to move things along by examining the sofa that Hono had picked out. Tomina gazed at it, looking down at the price tag. "It doesn't look bad. What material are the cushions?"

Hono yawned. Looking at the Sofa some more. It was a bit on the higher end but Tomina did say she wasn't worried about the price all that much. She rubbed the cushions before plopping down on the sofa.
She tapped her chin. "I think it's Polyester?" She said, before getting off of it. "I dunno what you want but, that thing was pretty comfortable~"

"If you say so. I trust your judgment Hono. Let's get the sofa." Tomina stepped forward, reaching out towards it, then paused. She frowned, wrinkling her brow. "It would look rather weird if I just picked this up and took it to the front. Besides, we have other stuff to get too. Soooo, how does this work?"
