"Ah, wait!" Rien hurries to follow him in, pausing hesitantly once he was past the door. The shop was a little bizarre. Its front was lined with warm, colourful clothes embroidered with sparkly thread. It was a medley of everything else inside. Signs stood taped to racks displaying expressions like, "NEW ARRIVAL," "NEW!!!!", and "NOT SECOND HAND! NEW!" "Uhh," Rien says quietly.

"Very colourful." Arata remarked to himself as he examined the rather gaudy selection. He turned to Rien in confusion. "So what are we looking for again?" It had been forever since he last went shopping.

"Just... anything a bit less, ah..." Rien spends a few seconds looking for a word before he gives up entirely. "Let me know if you find something that you think maybe I'd wear." He pulled something white out of a mass of shirts, a collared shirt that was way too big for him, then stuffed it back in.

Arata thought for a moment, before raiding the racks and producing a gigantic frilly princessy costume. "What about this?" he asked, in total seriousness.

Rien detects very quickly that he wasn't even joking. He looks at Arata dead in the eyes and says, "No," then returns to looking through the racks. He pulls out a collared shirt more his size, shrugs, and folds it onto his arm. The plus side of coming here is that everything was pretty cheap.

"Okay," Arata said meekly, returning the abomination to its rightful place. He wandered off in curiosity for a bit, probably checking out the belts or something equally useless.

Rien collects a few more things (the exact kind of clothes you'd assume for Rien - unassuming and all colourless) and goes to check out. For such a bizarre shop, the cashier was abnormally quiet and polite. Rien managed to get unnerved by that.
I did art for that even tho I wasnt a part of it

"Me too!" Arata said, hurriedly catching up to Rien, grabbing a bundle of clothes on the way. He didn't even look at it before picking it up (smh). He looked at the cashier for a second, but didn't seem as unnerved as Rien was.

"... I guess I have to pay for those," mumbles Rien. He produces a few more bills and some coins from a jacket pocket and pays for all of it.

After they had paid for the clothes and left the shop, Arata was confused again. "So... What now?"

"I want to shower." Rien pauses, slowing his walk to a stop. "... Arata, I don't know what you expect, travelling with me."

Arata paused, surprised by Rien's sudden comment. "Why wouldn't I be travelling with you? It's better than travelling alone."

Rien keeps his eyes on the ground. "I don't want to give you the wrong idea. I'm not an adventurer. If you're expecting something exciting you're not going to get it. My plan is to avoid trouble from here on out, as much as I can."

He was still confused. "That's okay... I am fine with a peaceful life. Since I have you with me." Arata was starting to get a bit concerned. Did Rien not like his company?

Rien still doesn't lift his eyes. He's silent for a few moments. "That's good. That's what I want." He finally looks up and sighs quietly, then tries for a tentative smile. "Sorry, I just... never mind. Let's go."
