It had only been a short day-- perhaps day in a half since Yuan had started living with Elly. After getting her Terrasphere helmet back, she felt a lot more at home and less antsy, having her other side back again was a dream she thought she wouldn't be able to revive. Glancing towards the girl who revived that dream though, Yuan remained unsure if Elly was aware of just how far and long reaching her ambitions were. The girl was wealthy, but had a checkered past that made Yuan green with envy; compared to Yuan's own desires in Terrasphere Elly's were naturally a lot smaller compared to the grandiose hopes and dreams of the woman cursed with mediocrity. Thinking about her in game goals Yuan couldn't help shaking her head, the tension from before, from Lucia's struggles had returned, the one part about that world that troubled her. Sylvanas's growth, the development of the Risen, the location of a possible undead kingdom, she had a great many troubles. "I'm going to need some new clothes, the ones I have are mostly office wear. I won't be needing those any more. Something more comfortable for staying at home would be nice." She thought as they made their way through a small mall, Yuan thought it best to go to a place that had a variety of things close by to support the new lifestyle, both for her who would have a new home, and Elly who would now have a companion to look after. "Toiletries will be important as well... Though I think we can share the bed, don't you?" She asked flashing a faint smile. Yuan was typically stoic by nature, her tone very blank and monotonous as well, inflection came rarely and she seemed to have a constant feel of indifference. Only those who knew her well would probably detect her happiness and the warmth in her gaze. Her hand held onto Elly's lightly rather then forcefully, it was clear she had a measure of trust in the girl. Thinking about it deeper, there were many things she could do with Elly's money, but in reality those things were limited. She couldn't help sighing as she stood in front of the directory map looking at all of the different stores detailed within. "It's a shame, if they had something like this in game I could shop for Sylvanas..." She murmured thinking about the Thrall that had been left alone in game. Part of the reason she was so anxious about playing again was for her sake, the Thrall no doubt was suffering much more then anyone else. With a calming sigh, she brought herself back to reality with some difficulty. "What about you? Were you thinking of getting something new? A collar or something perhaps?" She tried to tease, giving the girl's hand a gentle squeeze. @Laiordi Felcrest @Lai'ordi
"Yu, I think it's a bit too late to ask if we can share~" the girl teased back lightly. Slowly walking at the side of the woman, Elly only offered an encouraging smile. Her expression basically glowing, her sapphire eyes more focused on her lover. If she had encountered a friend of hers at the mall they most likely wouldn't recognize her. Long brunette hair usually wild and without order, was tied back neatly with an elastic. Wearing her usual hoodie, it was unzipped. Revealing a white shirt that revealed her belly. Cutting off at the waist she wore jeans in place of her normal skirt, the legs cut with holes from working with her friends at the clinic. "So what style do you like?" the girl asked curiously. Doubting that the mall had a leather and whip store she simply opted to figure out an alternative. "I know most of the stores here and around the city, I'm sure we could find anything for you. And if not we'll just have it custom tailored for you~" She offered to spoil the woman if they couldn't find anything her style. "Right!, you must be excited to get back into game right?" she asked with a soft giggle. "Yeah I imagine Loki must be missing me by now. and my guild probably think I went off and perma died or something." She chuckled. Continuing their stroll the girl used her free hand to place a thoughtful thumb to her bottom lip. "Hey...how are we going to find each other in game?, or would you rather us remain strangers in game?" she asked. More curious than worried. Afterall, she would be able to come out of game to her lover. "Hmm?" Blinking comically as the woman asked if she had wanted to grab anything Elly formed an awkward and nervous look. Shifting her gaze towards the ground. "I-...I don't know..." she mumbled, feeling weird at the thought of splurging herself. Pulling herself closer to Yuan she nestled her cheek against her shoulder. "maybe?" @Lucia Mierz
The comment about sharing made Yuan pull Elly a bit closer, draping an arm around her shoulder as she shook her head. "Even if it's after the fact, asking is important right?" She spoke with a mellow smile. After all, while she might treat Elly in peculiar or questionable ways, she still cared about the girl, there was no harm in asking, while there might be more harm in simply taking it. "Unless you say no that is." She tried to tease at the end giving the girl's temple a simple kiss, not caring if it was in public, Yuan would normally just be ignored as if she were blank space regardless. Yuan wasn't really bothered about hiding anything, in the eyes of many she was merely a background. Thinking about special clothing though, some bitterness touched her expression, as much as she wanted extravagant or lavish clothing, they didn't really suit her bland appearance. "No, something typical I suppose, unusual or special things don't tend to be as flattering on me." She spoke with a burdened sigh. Though when talking about the game, Yuan's expression brightened considerably as she nodded. It was the one place she could be special, the one place where she was unique and even exceptional. "Don't worry... I'll be able to find you." Yuan spoke with confidence. Even if she in reality was plan and boring, in game Lucia had every Cult that supported Synra, ever dead body and creature to act as her eyes and ears. Combined with a horde of soldiers and supporters, she wasn't lacking confidence in doing something as simple as tracking somoene down. "If you just tell me where you are, I'll be able to find you." She explained with a small smile, knowing that with a place to comb through she'd probably be able to find Elly pretty quickly. "If you run into my people thouh just try not to kill them though." She said with a soft laugh knowing most people reflexively attacked the undead.
