['Tis a River in Egypt]

"Aw, why not? C'mon, they'd look stunning on you. You put these on and you'd have to drag me home, 'cause you'd have knocked me dead," the ghost-blooded ninja-swashbuckler declares, batting her eyes...and pushing out her own chest just a little.

[Halae]

[Defeated! Insert Victory Fanfare Here!]

Terry scowls for a moment longer, doing her best not to look at Lucy's chest, before she grabs them and storms off back into the changing room. Arg, damn woman. The things Terry will do for a pretty face and a great rack.

Given the whole perfect form thing that comes with a BR GB potion, Terry has no leg hair to speak of when she steps out, wearing the shorts and halter top. Oh yes, she's definitely still scowling, and blushing, but hell does that look good on her.

"Well?"

[The Bushranger]

[Doo-doo-doo-doo!]

And Lucy can't help but stare!
...and, after a short interval, manages to pick her jaw up off the floor.
"Woah."

After a pause long enough to make Terry wonder if Lucy turned into Neo, she recovers, blinking, and manages to look up to Terry's face. "You look awesome."

[Halae]

[And the Blushing Continues]

She shifts her feet, "Let's just... let's just get out of her, alright? Pay for the clothes and go somewhere else. I don't care where." She definitely looks mightily embarrassed

[The Bushranger]

[Don't Get Stuck That Way]

"Sure thing," Lucy says, smiling, and grabbing a couple of the more-modest ensembles Terry had indicated a preference for as well, before leading the way to the cashier. Hips swaying.

[Halae]

[If This Keeps Up, She Just Might]

Out of the desire to look good for Lucy, Terry doesn't ask to swap back into something else. Still, it's clear from her movements she's not feeling particularly confident about her current apparel, not that she's about to say anything about it.

And that hip swaying provides a nice distraction, at least. Not that it's as distracting as Terry may like it to be.

[The Bushranger]

[And Payment Is Made]

Lucy pays for the purchases, then turns back to Terry, the back on one arm...and offers her companion the other.
"So, um, is there anywhere in particular we should go? Are you hungry or anything?"

[Halae]

[And The Day moves On]

Terry coughs and will take the hand, "Well, if you want to count this as that first date, we could go get dinner or watch a movie or something."

[The Bushranger]

[And on and on]

"Well, sure. Restaurant Enchante? Or is there somewhere else you'd like to go?" Now Lucy looks a bit embarassed. "I...really haven't gone out very much, so I'm not sure what the choices are really."

[Halae]

[Insert rolling Stone Joke Here]

"Well, the way I see it, we really have three options. The first is that we find a place to eat; I'd honestly be fine with stuff from the food court - the pizza place they have her is excellent - so where we'd eat is up to you. The second is we go to the Magcinema and watch a movie. Probably that new Agent Chrome one I've heard is coming out - that'd just be the pair of us, sitting in a mostly empty dark room with ridiculous antics on-screen."

"Only other option is we head home and plan the date for another day when we can actually do something special, rather than do things on a whim."

That was remarkably well thought out.

[The Bushranger]

[No Moss Gathered]

"...well..." Lucy's mind goes off in certain directions at the thought of the two of them in a mostly empty dark room. "I guess maybe it might be best if we planned it out, so it would be special. I could walk you home, then?" she offers, smiling.

[Halae]

[A Change of Plans]

"Alright, then I-" Terry's stomach lets out a gurgling noise, asking for food rather audibly, "... I think maybe we should head for some food. Pizza, maybe?"

[The Bushranger]

[To the Court of Food]

"Pizza it is!" Lucy declares with a grin. And she'll lead the way to the Food Court, and Pizza the Hutt. Needless to say, she walks fairly close to Terry, and both girls get more than their fair share of very appreciative looks...

[Halae]

[Food Here! Get Your Food Here!]

Terry will stay close to Lucy, possibly bumping hips with her by accident on occasion. Still, the hand holding should prevent any guy with the bright idea to try and seduce a pair of gorgeous women from coming over, despite the pheromones that Terry is still giving off.

Terry's pizza of choice, is, of course, meatlovers. And she'll eat a lot of it.

[The Bushranger]

[Om Nom Nom Sho Gud]

Hip-bumping does in fact occur, and Lucy seems to move just a bit closer still after it starts...

Lucy, for her part, selects a white pizza. With extra, extra cheese. And she takes a seat at the table next to Terry, smiling as she digs in. "This is good stuff, isn't it?"

...she probably doesn't notice that Terry's ears start becoming slightly pointed when she starts eating the pizza with tomato sauce.

[Halae]

[Mmmm.... Pizzaaaaa *drools*]

Well, there's a familiar sensation. Terry chews and swallows, and hand going up to her ear to check.

Dammit, not again. "How reputable is the place where we got this pizza?"

[The Bushranger]

[Pizza! Pizza!]

"Huh? Well, they're very reputable. How come?"

She looks up, then blinks as she sees what Terry's hand finds: that Terry now has elf ears! Closer to Vulcan-type pointed ears than the ridiculously long ones some WoW elves get, but stil quite noticable, and, Terry will find, rather sensitive as well.

[Halae]

[Suddenly, Transforming!]

Terry points at her ears to show Lucy, "I'm not even surprised anymore"

Of course, the sudden movement carries her no much longer hair into her pizza, which she scowls at and moves back out of the food. As she scowls, the new ears droop a little - they're expressive!

[The Bushranger]

[Transform and Eat Out!]

"So, this happens to you often, then?" Lucy asks, pausing before reaching over to slide an arm around Terry's shoulders and give her new friend a reassuring hug. "Also, you know, I have some scrunchies so I can get that hair out of your way..."

[Halae]

[So Many Transformations]

"I was a perfectly normal human guy at the start of the day," she says, and waves the rainbow colored chitinous arm in an expressive motion. Still, she's hugged. "And yeah, that's be appreciated."

[The Bushranger]

[UST with the SMT]

Lucy holds the hug for a long moment, before letting go and standing. Moving behind Terry, and carefully pulling back her hair, quickly setting to work arranging her long pink locks into a ponytail. "Well, I'll help out any way that you need, alright? And I have to say, you have gorgeous hair..."

It's possible that, as Becky and Kal make their nefarious way through the mall, Terry might spot them passing by as Lucy fixes her hair, and marvel at Becky's choice of outfit...

[Halae]

[The Food Court Crossroads]

"I'm naturally a blond. I hope it grows back in, and this isn't a permanent shift." Still, she supposes it's kind of nice being a little unique. Even if she does eventually change back to a guy, she might just keep the pink hair.

Any time Lucy accidentally touches one of Terry's ears, she'll twitch a little and her ear will move out of the way being sensitive means it feels nice, at least. All in all, she looks pretty good with a ponytail.

She notices Becky, but with the girl behind her tying up her hair, she doesn't really watch. One sexy girl is enough for now.

[The Bushranger]

[Come One, Come All]

"Hey, this way, you're unique. You'd look good blonde, but I think this suits you." Lucy tries not to bump her ears too much, but some is inevitable. And, once done, she steps back and admires her work, before dropping back into her seat, pretty close to Terry. "There. All better!"

[Halae]

[Dining Hall Of The Mall]

"I suppose," never mind she'd just been thinking that herself. An idea strikes Terry, and as Lucy sits down, Terry will get right up close and try to give her a kiss. A Whim, you might say, not thought through. We'll see how that goes. She thinks it a little early, but she doubts Lucy will object, given they way the pair has been staring at one another.

"Thanks. I really appreciate it."

[The Bushranger]

[Hall of the Malltain King]

Lucy, needless to say, is rather surprised by the sudden kiss. But Terry is correct in her assumption, and after the moment of surprise, the curvy ninja returns it! Blushing fiercely as it ends, and giggling softly. "You're welcome! It's the least I could do, you know."

[Halae]

[Food Fit For Kings!]

"Least you could do?" Terry frowns, "I haven't done anything at all for you, while you've gotten me clothes and food. Seriously." She continues to eat her pizza at that point, looking very much like someone you can't argue down from a point.

[The Bushranger]

[Food Fit For Queens!]

"Hey, you needed the stuff. I could provide. So, I did it," Lucy protests. "That's what dad taught me to do, anyway. And hey, I like you," she adds with a giggle.

[Halae]

[Royalty In General!]

A question occurs to Terry, "Alright, this might seem like it's coming out of left field, but are you entirely human?" she scratches the back of her head, "I'm a nexus native - I've seen tons of things that look like humans but aren't, and I'd like to know before we... start anything."

[The Bushranger]

[Food Court]

Lucy's blush deepens a bit, but she nods. "Well, I'm not, like, going to suck out your soul or anything. But that's probably a good thing to ask. I'm three-quarters human. Quarter ghost. It's a long story involving a mad sorcerer and mad magical science," she quickly adds to try and head off the inevitable questions. "I can do a few parlor-trick magic things, heal faster, better stamina too. And I can hold my breath a lot longer than a normal human."

[Halae]

[Food Court]

As Terry finishes her pizza (Wait, what? How is it gone so fast?) she reaches over to the napkin nearby and... "Got a pen I can borrow? I want to give you my phone number, or write down yours, or something."

It occurs to me i have no idea where Lucy stores stuff like scrunchies and a pen on her bodysuit.
