- Tomoyo Daidouji has posed:
Weak rays of the sun poke through thick cloud overhead Tomoeda. It's not raining at the moment, but all the evidence points to it having only stopped recently. Puddles upon the path, the smell of damp earth in the air, people on the street keeping umbrellas close at hand.
Tomoyo's Boutique is open for business, lingering water before the storefront having been brushed away onto the gutter, judging by the streaks. The girl herself is inside answering a phone inquiry.
- A-ko Magami (434) has posed:
After classes let out, A-ko has to make sure she's not being followed by B-ko, whether or not C-ko is with her. B-ko always loves to ruin A-ko's day, and that's something A-ko can do without. Definitely a reason to breathe a sigh of relief when she arrives in the area where the botique is. As she gets closer to the botique, she looks around to make sure B-ko isn't secretly in hiding anywhere, before closing her umbrella and walking inside.
As A-ko walks inside, she looks around and pauses for a moment. Then she calls out, "Uh, hello? Is anyone here?"
- Tomoyo Daidouji has posed:
Tomoyo is here! Behind her desk, talking on a phone. She offers a wave to A-ko, and a gesture that seems to ask her to wait for a moment. "Saturday? That would be just fine. See you then, and thank you for your hard work." She hangs up and turns all her attention on the customer.
"Welcome back Miss Magami~" she says, recognizing the girl by sight. "Your formal dress, correct? I'll have it brought right down!" A new addition to the counter is an intercom setup, which she turns on and speaks into. "Yamazaki, bring down item #324 please?"
"So, how have you been doing?" she asks A-ko, smiling politely. As the girl answers, a young man comes down the stairs behind the counter, holding a plastic bag hanging from a coathanger.
"Here it is! If you would like to try it on right away, the changing rooms are behind you."
- A-ko Magami (434) has posed:
Nodding politely, A-ko accepts the dress and goes into the changing rooms. "OK, let me try it on!" She can be heard inside changing her clothes for a few moments, and then she steps out, wearing her new dress. "Looks nice on me, don't you think?" She asks with a big grin.
- Tomoyo Daidouji has posed:
Within the safe confines of the dressing room, A-ko can examine the outfit at her leisure. The biggest piece is the dress itself, a black ankle-length thing with flared hems and a single sleeve on her right, leaving her left shoulder bare. Slits up the side, stopping at her knees offer some freedom of movement. It's slightly low-cut, just enough to show her assets without being scandalous.
Next is the sash intended to go around her waist, a pure white to contrast the deep black dress. Tomoyo even includes a diagram on how best to tie it so A-ko has a big fetching bow on her back. The included heels are also black, with low wedge heels. Certainly not tall enough to interrupt any dancing she may do.
The final touches are a pair of white elbow-length opera gloves, and also a white pearl necklace, either made from real pearls, or staggeringly good imitations!
When she emerges from the dressing room, Tomoyo is waiting with a camera to snap a photo. "Oh my goodness, you look like a vision," she says, perfectly clear and honest.
- A-ko Magami (434) has posed:
A-ko spins around and giggles a little bit. "This is absolutely wonderful! I bet B-ko will be jealous when she sees me wearing this!" She smiles widely at Tomoyo. "Thank you so much, I don't know how I can repay you for doing such a wonderful job on this dress!"
- Tomoyo Daidouji has posed:
The dress flares wonderfully with the twirl. Tomoyo smiles benevolently and says, "You don't have to do anything special to repay me. But you do have to pay for the outfit." She giggles softly, and goes back to the counter to ring up the price. Judging by how cheap it is, they must not be real pearls. Or Tomoyo is giving a hell of a discount.
"Are you sure you want to wear it outside? If it starts raining again..." Well, she leaves that to A-ko's imagination.
- A-ko Magami (434) has posed:
Returning to the dressing room, A-ko gets changed back into her school uniform again. "Thanks, but I'll carry it home. I don't want to risk anything happening to it." She smiles and proceeds to pay Tomoyo for the dress. "I'm so glad I worked with you. I'll have to tell my friends about you sometime!"
- Tomoyo Daidouji has posed:
"That would be much appreciated. Small businesses like this thrive on word-of-mouth." Tomoyo smiles and bows to A-ko. "I'm so glad you like your outfit. I hope you-or your friends-will visit us again soon!"
- A-ko Magami (434) has posed:
Bowing in return, A-ko smiles. "You can count on that!" She gives a thumbs up to Tomoyo. "I'll be sure to come back and visit very soon. Right now I have to get home. I have homework to do!" She opens her umbrella as she steps outside, in case it's started to rain agian.
