With Wyld tagging along, of course. 

She thinks - weapons, first. 

Permalink

Build the wardrobe around the important pieces, right.

Permalink

Gives them a better estimate of spare time to stare at pretty scarves, too (the Dreaming Sea's ports have such pretty scarves, she decides, or at least this one does).

Permalink

It does! They're all stripey and fluttery.

Permalink

Many of them delicate and sheer - those don't tend to export very far - which would definitely be fun in some circumstances, but she likes the looks of those more durable ones over there... Less likely to rip when being tugged at.

Permalink

An important consideration, given Wyld's proclivity for vigorous activity.

Permalink

They might need a 'look but don't touch' rule whenever Wyld's wearing the sheer ones. So, useful if Eridani's otherwise tied up...

Permalink

That sounds like a mean rule.

Permalink

Wyld's never claimed to be kind. 

Permalink

Well... the sheer ones are very pretty...

Permalink

They'll have to go through them more carefully once Wyld has her knives.

Permalink

Go back to looking for those, then?

Permalink

Yeah.

Wyld favors lightly curved blades, though really it's a good idea to get multiple, and she'll want some utility knives... She looks first for function, second for beauty, and she haggles extremely cheerfully, flirting with shopkeepers and making up outrageous tales, demonstrating a pretty deep knowledge of weapons craft and also a pretty good ability to just guess what the economy is like here, what things will tend to go for. 

She will, however, splurge on very gorgeous sheaths when those are available, and somehow convinces a man selling leather belts, belt bags, and knife sheaths to sell her a rather extensive set for a song. (Or, well, possibly for getting to feel her up while helping her fasten the straps and test how they settle.) They're a dark ruddy leather, thick and embossed with knotwork painted in fire shades, and Wyld strips in the back room to fasten several of them under her skirt and top (having purchased a shift and some leg wraps earlier for the specific purpose of keeping the leather off her skin).

Wyld comes out of the weapons section of the market very delighted with all her pretty sharps.

Eridani is impressed by Wyld's skills at shopping. The knives look very good on her.

Permalink

They do. (Little twirl.) And they'll be very easy to show off.

Permalink

Mhm!

Eridani checks the position of the sun. Looks like they've used up about half their time.

Permalink

Well, fortunately she already has an idea of which scarves she wants... Might have to keep borrowing from Eridani or be a bit less picky on the rest of her wardrobe, though. 

Permalink

Eridani's happy to share. And they can get more at the capital.

Permalink

Fair enough. Especially more practical clothes...

Permalink

For sure.

Permalink

They can get the pretty scarves here.

Permalink

Good. A scarf will suit her well.

Permalink

This sheer one, dark red with black, jagged stripes almost like a tiger's... This white silk one with the green brocade looks warm... This one, black with red roses, is reinforced and long enough to tie things with... This purple one has sections with cool beadwork in blues and greens and golds and a bead peacock charm hanging off one end, that one's a keeper.

Permalink

Wyld has great taste in scaves. Eridani approves!

Permalink

Good. She'll be seeing them a lot, so. 

(Kiss!)
